- A.
With every nail
- B.
All the time

The "wipe and apply" method of preparation would be used in very humid conditions and with oily nails. In such conditions, the nail surface tends to be more slippery and the polish may not adhere properly. By wiping the nails with a cleanser or acetone before applying polish, the excess oils and moisture are removed, allowing the polish to adhere better and last longer.Rate this question:

Give three obserbable reasons for nails lifting

Heart medication, acid juces, mixing products
- B.
Natural oils, excess dust, pterygium
- C.
Excess vitamin B6, bacterial in the client's system, allergies
- D.
Contaminated products, nervous habits, household cleaning products
Correct Answer
B. Natural oils, excess dust, pterygiumExplanation
The three observable reasons for nails lifting are natural oils, excess dust, and pterygium. Natural oils can accumulate on the nails and create a barrier that prevents proper adhesion of nail products. Excess dust can also interfere with the bonding of nail products and cause lifting. Pterygium, which is a condition where the skin grows over the nail plate, can cause lifting as well. These factors can all contribute to nails lifting and should be addressed to maintain the longevity of nail enhancements.Rate this question:

What does the ultra violet light react with the Gel to cure it
Correct Answer
PhotoinitiatorExplanation
The ultra violet light reacts with the gel to cure it by activating the photoinitiator. The photoinitiator is a chemical compound that absorbs the UV light and undergoes a chemical reaction, generating free radicals. These free radicals then initiate a chain reaction that leads to the polymerization of the gel, causing it to harden and cure.Rate this question:

Therefore, it is important to remove the sticky residue beforehand to ensure a clean and professional finish.Rate this question:

Half the nail bedExplanation
The maximum recommended length of an artificial nail in relation to the client's natural nail is half the nail bed.

By keeping the artificial nail length at half the nail bed, it ensures that the artificial nail is not too long and allows for a more comfortable and healthier nail extension.Rate this question:
