    • Warts

    • Perfectly shaped nails

    • Skin and nail infection

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Bruises
    A. Warts
    A. Skin and nail infection
    Explanation
    The correct answer is bruises, warts, and skin and nail infection. Manicures involve the manipulation and grooming of the nails and surrounding skin. Bruises can be painful and sensitive, so it is not recommended to perform a manicure on bruised areas. Warts are caused by a viral infection and can be contagious, so it is important to avoid contact and manipulation of warts during a manicure. Skin and nail infections can spread and worsen with the use of manicure tools, so it is best to avoid performing a manicure if there is an active infection present.

    • False

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    Being a good listener and engaging in light conversation with a client is important, but it is not necessary to never let the client sit in silence. Silence can sometimes be beneficial, allowing the client to gather their thoughts or reflect on the conversation. It can also provide an opportunity for the client to ask questions or share additional information. Therefore, the statement is false.
