Study Notes

Basic Manicure Steps

  • Steps are designed to maintain nail health and achieve a polished look.
  • Each step is essential for the overall experience and hygiene in manicure services.

Disinfect and Prepare

  • Disinfecting the table prevents the spread of germs and maintains cleanliness.
  • Sanitizing hands is crucial in ensuring both client and technician safety.

Nail Analysis and Polish Removal

  • Analyzing nails helps identify any issues such as health or shape before proceeding.
  • Removing polish prepares the nails for fresh application and allows for evaluation of the nail condition.

Shaping and Cuticle Care

  • Filing and shaping nails enhances appearance and promotes nail strength.
  • Applying cuticle remover softens the cuticles for easier management during the manicure.

Soaking and Cuticle Treatment

  • Soaking the first hand relaxes the skin and makes cuticle pushing easier.
  • Pushing cuticles back keeps nails neat and encourages healthy growth.

Hand Switching and Drying

  • Switching hands allows for equal treatment and maintains workflow.
  • Drying the hand removed from water is important to prevent excess moisture affecting nail polish adherence.

Cleanliness and Massage

  • Cleaning the free edge ensures no residual skin or debris interferes with polish application.
  • Lotion and massage provide relaxation for the client and improve skin texture.

Polish Application

  • Removing excess lotion prepares the nails for polish application without transferred oils.
  • Applying a base coat protects natural nails and improves polish longevity.
  • Two coats of colored polish provide opacity and vibrancy.
  • A top coat seals the color and adds shine for a professional finish.
  • Removing excess polish around the nails ensures a crisp, clean look.

Final Disinfection

  • Disinfecting polish tools after use prevents contamination and keeps the workspace hygienic.
