PAPER NAIL WRAPS and REPAIRS

Procedure Sheet INTRODUCTION: Nail wraps and repairs are a method of covering the nail with a special paper by using a glue or mender to attach the paper. The paper is placed about half way up the nail plate and extends over the free edge. The purpose of the wrap is to protect the top and free edge of the nail plate. This additional paper adds strength to the nail to prevent it from breaking or splitting. MATERIALS NEEDED: Manicure brush Nail mender Mender paper Dappen dish Small scissors Paper towels Barbee towels (2)

Tweezers Tape Plastic Orangewood Stick Nippers Pusher Terry towels Emery boards

Polish Cuticle Solvent Polish remover (non oily) Labeled disposal bag Bowl filled with soapy water Cotton in closed container Closed soiled container

PROCEDURE: 1. SET UP TABLE and S.M.A.

a. Wash table top with soap and water dry it, and then place your S.M.A down. b. Neatly arrange all tools and supplies needed to perform this service. c. All labeled bottles are placed on table with labels facing you

in plain view. d. All implements are placed on the S.M.A prior to the start of the manicure

portion of this service. After the manicure service you would mend the nail. Wipe your implements clean before returning them to the S.M.A. Return your implements to S.M.A. when not in use.

e. Tape your labeled disposal bag on manicure table and USE IT. f. Secure the Barbee towel to the uniform.

2. TECHNICIAN SANITIZES HANDS AND RESANITIZES AS NEEDED: This is done with the use of soap and water. It is to be done when ever the operator touches anything unsanitary. Examples: rubbing ones nose, brush hair of face with ones hand etcetera.

Manicure & Pedicure Page 10 of 22

Page 2 PAPER NAIL WRAPS and REPAIRS Procedure Sheet Continued 3. CLIENT SANITIZES HANDS BEFORE STARTING PROCEDURE:

Client is instructed to wash their hands with soap and water by the technician prior to sitting for service.

4. EXAMINE THE CLIENT'S HANDS, MAKING SURE THEY ARE IN CONDITION TO RECEIVE SERVICE: a. Client's nails are free from diseases, infections, or open sores b. Client should not be wearing false nails c. Observe nails for length and shape

5. PREPARE CLIENT'S NAILS: a. A manicure should be given prior to the nail wrap or repair application. DO

NOT use hand lotion, or cuticle oil on nail that will be repaired b. Nail should be shaped and trimmed prior to wrap application c. If the manicure is omitted be sure to remove polish and file nails before a repair or a nail wrap

6. TURN OFF LAMP ON MANICURE TABLE ( if you have one): They produce a lot of heat as do the hair dryers. This will cause the wraps to dry to fast causing bubbles to occur.

7. FILL DAPPEN DISH WITH NON OILY POLISH REMOVER:

8. PREPARE MENDING TISSUE: a. Tear the mending tissue to the correct shape and size for the nail b. Allow more width at the free edge for extra strength c. Use scissors to trim the tissue a fraction longer than the free edge d. If the nails are long, a longer tissue may be used to tuck under the free edge

9. APPLY MENDER LIQUID: a. First apply mender liquid to the nail b. Apply mender liquid to the paper second or polish remover c. Apply enough mender liquid to completely saturate the tissue thoroughly

10. APPLY MENDING TISSUE SATURATED WITH THE LIQUID TO THE NAIL: a. Use finger or plastic orangewood stick to smooth from center to the sides to

remove air bubbles. Dip either finger or plastic stick into polish remover. b. Splitting the paper or making V’s on the free edge of the paper before tucking

will make the wrap turn under much smoother. c. Apply mender under free edge then tuck tissue with fingers or plastic

orangewood stick slightly moistened with polish remover. d. Apply more mending liquid on the underneath side to make the tissue adhere to

the underneath side. e. Use the flat side of the plastic orangewood stick to keep the wrap down until it

sticks.

11. APPLY ADDITIONAL MENDER TISSUE OR COTTON FIBERS IF NEEDED: This is rare, unless the nail has a split in it.

Manicure & Pedicure Page 11 of 22

PAPER NAIL WRAPS and REPAIRS Procedure Sheet Continued Page 3

12. APPLY ADITIONAL COATS OF MENDING LIQUID ON TOP AND BOTTOM OF NAIL:

13. REMOVE ANY EXCESS MENDER ON THE SKIN AND CUTICLE AROUND THE NAIL AND UNDER THE FREE EDGE: A cotton tipped stick dipped into polish remover works quite well.

14. REPAIR OR WRAP SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY DRY BEFORE APPLYING BASE COADT OR POLISH:

When dry the wrap should barely be visible.

15. APPLY FAVORITE COLOR OF POLISH: a. Apply on underneath and on top. b. When applying polish, you may remove the wrap at the same time. Be careful.

16. CLEAN UP: a. All materials and supplies should be put away. b. Wipe your work area clean.

17. NAIL REPAIRS: These are similar to wraps; the split or broken area is glued together. First the mending tissue is then used to reinforce covering the area using the same method as the wrap.

18. POLISH CHANGE: It’s advisable to polish over old polish than to remove it. In order NOT to remove the wraps, you must use polish remover sparingly with very light pressure. Be careful not to get it the polish remover under the free edge. Stroke the polish remover from free edge towards the lunula area. (Opposite of the normal direction)

19. REMOVAL OF WRAPS: Use cotton heavily saturated in polish remover then hold on nail plate until it penetrates all the way through polish and paper. If the nail is heavily coated, soak in dappen dish of polish remover and use plastic orangewood stick to push off after it loosens.

PEDICURE

INTRODUCTION:

Pedicuring is the art of manicuring the feet. The word "pedicure" is derived from the Latin words "pedi" which means foot, and "cura" which means care of. It is one of the most luxurious and enjoyable services offered in the manicuring field. At one time, a pedicure was enjoyed only by the rich and famous and only in wealthy areas. Pedicuring has been a seasonal service until the working women of today's society discovered it. Not only will it make her feet look better, but it will more importantly, make her tired aching feet feel better. Pedicures are no longer a luxury, but have become a necessity for today's working men and women. Toenails can be painted in the usual manner or decals and artwork can be added for fun. The feet are the most susceptible part of the body to disease and infection. Thorough cleansing and sanitation of your implements are an absolute necessity. The metal pusher and nippers are allowed, but precaution needs to be observed, because of their sensitivity to infection. Infections of the feet are difficult to get red of.
