    • Store all products in a cool, dark place and keep lids tightly closed when not in use

    • Room ventilation is not a concern and smoking is permitted in room

    • Keep dust to a minimum, use a hygiene cleaning system at all times for tools

    • Wash your hands frequently, do not touch your hair, our mouth while working

    Correct Answer
    A. Room ventilation is not a concern and smoking is permitted in room
    Explanation
    The statement "Room ventilation is not a concern and smoking is permitted in the room" is not a basic safety guideline because it promotes a hazardous environment. Proper ventilation is essential to maintain air quality and prevent the buildup of harmful fumes or gases. Allowing smoking in a room can increase the risk of fire and expose individuals to secondhand smoke, which is known to be harmful to health. Basic safety guidelines prioritize maintaining a safe and healthy environment for everyone.

    • A dust extraction unit can be fitted, but is not a specific requirement at this stage

    Correct Answer
    A. It is not necessary to change your disposable desk towel/couch roll frequently
    Explanation
    The statement "It is not necessary to change your disposable desk towel/couch roll frequently" does not apply to dust. Dust can accumulate on surfaces such as desk towels or couch rolls, and it is important to change them frequently to prevent the buildup of dust and potential hazards associated with it.

    Chemicals can enter your body by:  (Select three)

    • Absorption

    • Injection

    • Inhalation

    • Ingestion

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Absorption
    A. Inhalation
    A. Ingestion
    Explanation
    Chemicals can enter the body through absorption, inhalation, and ingestion. Absorption refers to the process of chemicals being absorbed through the skin or mucous membranes. Inhalation occurs when chemicals are inhaled into the respiratory system, entering the body through the lungs. Ingestion happens when chemicals are swallowed and enter the body through the digestive system. These three routes of entry are common ways for chemicals to enter the body and potentially cause harm or have an effect on various organs and systems.

  • 7. 

    Disinfection, boiling is carried out after sterilisation.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Boiling is not carried out after sterilization. Sterilization is a process that kills or eliminates all forms of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and spores. It is a more intense and thorough process compared to disinfection. Boiling, on the other hand, is a method of disinfection that uses heat to kill or deactivate most types of microorganisms. Therefore, boiling is typically done before sterilization, not after.

    List three types of alcohol used in disinfection.

    • Methylated spirit

    • Methyl

    • Aldehyde

    • Isopropyl

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Methylated spirit
    A. Methyl
    A. Isopropyl
    Explanation
    The correct answer includes three types of alcohol used in disinfection: methylated spirit, methyl, and isopropyl. Methylated spirit is a type of ethyl alcohol that has been mixed with a small amount of methyl alcohol, making it unsuitable for consumption but effective for disinfection purposes. Methyl alcohol, also known as methanol, is a toxic alcohol that is not commonly used for disinfection due to its harmful effects. Isopropyl alcohol, also known as rubbing alcohol, is a commonly used disinfectant that is effective against a wide range of microorganisms.

    • Halogens

    • Glutaraldegyes

    • Aldehydes

    • Formaldehyde

    Correct Answer
    A. Glutaraldegyes
    Explanation
    Glutaraldehyde is favored for chemical sterilization in salons because it is a highly effective disinfectant that can kill a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It is commonly used to sterilize instruments and equipment in salons to prevent the spread of infections. Halogens, aldehydes, and formaldehyde are also used as disinfectants in various settings, but in the context of salon sterilization, glutaraldehyde is the preferred choice.
