    When should you clean your manicure table?

    • When a new client arrive and sits down 

    • After every three clients 

    • Right after each manicure 

    • After every three manicures 

    Correct Answer
    A. Right after each manicure 
    Explanation
    Cleaning the manicure table right after each manicure is important to maintain hygiene and prevent the spread of bacteria and infections. This ensures that the table is clean and ready for the next client, minimizing the risk of cross-contamination. Cleaning the table after every three clients or three manicures may allow bacteria and germs to accumulate, posing a potential health hazard for clients.

    Disease-causing bacteria can be spread by:

    • Touching antiseptics

    • Getting wet or cold 

    • Cleaning with disinfectants 

    • Coughing of spitting 

    Correct Answer
    A. Coughing of spitting 
    Explanation
    Disease-causing bacteria can be spread by coughing or spitting. When an infected person coughs or spits, tiny droplets containing bacteria are released into the air. These droplets can be inhaled by others, allowing the bacteria to enter their respiratory system and potentially cause infection. Coughing and spitting can therefore contribute to the transmission of diseases from one person to another.

    Trichology is the study of hair. It focuses on understanding the structure, function, and diseases related to hair. This field involves studying the scalp, hair growth cycles, hair loss, and treatments for various hair conditions.

    • Suddenly falls out in round patches

    • Changes from oily to very dry 

    • Produces excessive amounts of sebum

    • Turns grey very suddenly

    Correct Answer
    A. Suddenly falls out in round patches
    Explanation
    Alopecia areata is a condition characterized by sudden hair loss in round patches. This means that the client's hair falls out in localized areas, leaving circular bald patches on the scalp or other parts of the body. This condition is thought to be an autoimmune disorder, where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the hair follicles, causing the hair to fall out. It is not related to changes in oiliness or dryness of the hair, excessive sebum production, or sudden graying of the hair.

    Correct Answer
    A. Can be dangerous if used incorrectly
    Explanation
    Disinfectants can be dangerous if used incorrectly because they often contain chemicals that can be harmful to humans. It is important to follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer and to use them in a well-ventilated area. Using disinfectants incorrectly, such as mixing them with other cleaning products or using them on surfaces that are not recommended, can result in toxic fumes or residue that can be harmful to health.

    • Disinfectants should be used only by healthcare professional's

    • Disinfectants are never used in salons 

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    Disinfectants should not be used on skin, hair, or nails because they can be harmful and irritating to these areas. Disinfectants are designed to kill or inactivate microorganisms on surfaces, not on living tissues. Using disinfectants on skin, hair, or nails can cause skin irritation, dryness, and other adverse reactions. It is important to use disinfectants as directed and only on the appropriate surfaces to ensure their effectiveness and to protect the health and safety of individuals.

    • Prevent the spread of disease

    • Discuss biology with clients

    • Avoid contracting food-borne illness

By having knowledge of bacteriology, they can implement proper sanitation and hygiene practices in their salon to ensure that diseases and infections are not transmitted between clients. This includes using sterilized tools, practicing proper hand hygiene, and maintaining a clean and sanitized environment. Understanding bacteriology also helps cosmetologists identify potential risks and take necessary precautions to protect themselves and their clients from any potential harm or illness.

    The part of the nail structure that contains actively growing tissue is the:

    • Nail plate

    • Matrix

    • Nail root 

    • Free edge 

    Correct Answer
    A. Matrix
    Explanation
    The matrix is the part of the nail structure that contains actively growing tissue. It is located at the base of the nail, underneath the cuticle. The matrix is responsible for producing new cells that make up the nail plate, which is the hard, visible part of the nail. This is why the matrix is often referred to as the "nail bed." The nail plate grows forward as new cells are added to the matrix, pushing older cells towards the free edge of the nail.

    Before applying chemicals to the hair, you should apply cream around the client's hairline in order to :

    • Avoid a lawsuit 

    • Test for allergic reactions

    • Sell additional products 

    • Avoid skin irritation l 

    Correct Answer
    A. Avoid skin irritation l 
    Explanation
    Applying cream around the client's hairline before applying chemicals helps to avoid skin irritation. Chemicals can be harsh and may cause irritation or burns if they come into contact with the skin. By applying cream as a protective barrier, it creates a barrier between the chemicals and the skin, reducing the risk of irritation. This precaution is important to ensure the safety and comfort of the client during the hair treatment process.

    Before draping a client, you should do all of the following EXCEPT:

    • Wash your hands

    • Ask the clients to wash his/her hands

    • Ask the client to remove any necklaces

    • Turn the client's collar in 

    Correct Answer
    A. Ask the clients to wash his/her hands
    Explanation
    Before draping a client, it is important to ensure proper hygiene by washing your own hands. Additionally, you should ask the client to remove any necklaces to prevent them from getting tangled or damaged during the draping process. It is also necessary to turn the client's collar in to ensure proper access and coverage. However, asking the client to wash their hands is not necessary before draping, as it does not directly affect the draping process.

    • Who are about to have a perm 

    • Who have chemically treated hair 

    • Whose health does not permit shampoos 

    • Who are allergic to shampoos 

    Correct Answer

    Dry shampoos are used on clients whose health does not permit shampoos. This means that these clients may have certain health conditions or medical restrictions that prevent them from using traditional shampoos. Dry shampoos provide an alternative solution for cleansing the hair without the need for water or rinsing, making them suitable for individuals with health issues that prevent them from using regular shampoos.

    A client who has an athlete's foot requests a pedicure. What should you do?

    • Refer the client to a doctor for treatment 

    • Treat the client with medicated powder and then give the pedicure 

    • Use strict sanitary precautions to avoid spreading the infection 

    • Give the pedicure as requested 

    Correct Answer
    A. Refer the client to a doctor for treatment 
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to refer the client to a doctor for treatment. Athlete's foot is a fungal infection that requires medical treatment. As a pedicurist, it is important to prioritize the client's health and well-being. Referring the client to a doctor ensures that they receive the appropriate treatment for their condition. Treating the client with medicated powder or giving the pedicure without proper precautions can potentially spread the infection to other clients or worsen the client's condition. Using strict sanitary precautions is important, but it is not sufficient to address the underlying fungal infection.

    The correct way to test the color of a foundation is to blend some of it on the client's

    • Cheek

    • Nose

    • Jawline 

    • Earlobe 

    Correct Answer
    A. Jawline 
    Explanation
    The correct way to test the color of a foundation is to blend some of it on the client's jawline. This area is often used because it is a good representation of the client's overall skin tone. The jawline is less affected by factors such as sun exposure or redness, making it a reliable spot to assess how well the foundation matches the client's complexion.

    Before wrapping, hair should be 

    • Shampooed and left moist 

    • Saturated with water 

    • Dry and cool

    • Very hot 

    Correct Answer
    A. Shampooed and left moist 
    Explanation
    Before wrapping, hair should be shampooed and left moist. This is because wrapping the hair when it is damp helps to set the style and create smoothness and shine. The moisture in the hair helps to mold it into the desired shape and hold the style in place. Additionally, shampooing the hair before wrapping removes any dirt, oil, or product buildup, ensuring a clean and fresh canvas for styling.

    Which statement about hair lightening is CORRECT?

    • Very dark hair may be damaged by extreme lightening 

    • Hair lighteners are used as preliminary treatment and never by themselves 

    • Lighteners are not effective in removing undesirable off shades 

    • Lightening has no effect on hair's porosity 

    Correct Answer
    A. Very dark hair may be damaged by extreme lightening 
    Explanation
    Very dark hair may be damaged by extreme lightening because the process of lightening involves stripping the hair of its natural pigment, and the darker the hair, the more pigment needs to be removed. Extreme lightening can cause the hair to become weak, brittle, and prone to breakage. It is important to use caution and follow proper hair lightening techniques to minimize damage to very dark hair.

    • Scalp massage increases the growth and prevents hair loss

    • Cutting the hair makes it grow faster and thicker 

    • The hair's texture becomes coarse as it ages 

    Correct Answer
    A. The nature color tends to fade as the hair ages 
    Explanation
    As hair ages, the natural color tends to fade. This is a common phenomenon observed in many individuals as they get older. The pigments responsible for hair color gradually decrease, resulting in a faded appearance. This can be seen in the graying of hair, where the original color is replaced by white or gray strands.

    • Will eliminate dandruff

    • Is tended for sun-damaged hair 

    Correct Answer
    A. Suits the client's hair type
    Explanation

Using a shampoo that is specifically formulated for the client's hair type will help address their specific needs and concerns, such as dryness, oiliness, or damage. By selecting a shampoo that suits the client's hair type, you can ensure that they receive the most effective and beneficial treatment for their hair.

    • Plaiting the strand on the surface 

    • Braiding very narrow sections of the hair 

    • Braiding more than three sections at a time 

    • Overlapping the braided strands on top 

    Correct Answer
    A. Overlapping the braided strands on top 
    Explanation
    Invisible braiding is a technique where the braided strands are overlapped on top of each other. This method creates a seamless and natural look, as the braids are not visible from the surface. Unlike traditional braiding where the strands are plaited on the surface or braided in narrow sections, invisible braiding involves braiding more than three sections at a time and overlapping them to achieve the desired result.

    When applying relaxer to the client's hair, you should:

    • Massage it into the entire head with your palms and fingers 

    • Apply it to the scalp first and stretch each strand out tight 

    • Spread it out evenly over the top and bottom of each small strand 

    • Brush it vigorously  though each section of hair with a wire brush 

    Correct Answer
    A. Spread it out evenly over the top and bottom of each small strand 
    Explanation
    When applying relaxer to the client's hair, it is important to spread it out evenly over the top and bottom of each small strand. This ensures that the relaxer is distributed evenly throughout the hair, allowing for consistent results. Massaging it into the entire head with your palms and fingers may not provide even coverage, while applying it to the scalp first and stretching each strand out tight may lead to over-processing or damage. Brushing it vigorously through each section of hair with a wire brush is also not recommended as it can cause breakage and damage to the hair.

    A tube-like opening in the skin or scalp that surrounds the hair root is the 

    • Epidermis 

    • Dermis 

    • Papilla

    • Follicle

    Correct Answer
    A. Follicle
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Follicle." A follicle is a tube-like opening in the skin or scalp that surrounds the hair root. It provides nourishment to the hair and helps in its growth. The follicle is made up of different layers, including the innermost layer called the hair papilla, which contains blood vessels that supply nutrients to the hair. The epidermis and dermis are also layers of the skin, but they do not specifically refer to the opening that surrounds the hair root.

    Which is the most important safety precaution to use when perming a client's hair?

    • Dilute the chemical to half strength 

    • Use all chemicals within 6 months of opening them 

    • Wait three weeks before re-perming a client who has had an allergic reaction 

    • Read and follow all product directions carefully 

    Correct Answer
    A. Read and follow all product directions carefully 
    Explanation
    Reading and following all product directions carefully is the most important safety precaution to use when perming a client's hair. This is because the product directions provide important information about how to properly use the chemicals, the recommended application time, and any necessary safety precautions. By following the directions, the stylist can ensure that the perm is done correctly and safely, minimizing the risk of damage or adverse reactions to the client's hair and scalp.

    Naturally curly hair with an uneven curl pattern can usually be successfully permed with 

    • A body wave 

    • Very narrow rods 

    • An alkaline waving lotion 

    • Heated clamps 

    Correct Answer
    A. An alkaline waving lotion 
    Explanation
    An alkaline waving lotion is the correct answer because it helps to break down the protein bonds in the hair, allowing it to be reshaped into a new curl pattern. This is especially effective for naturally curly hair with an uneven curl pattern, as it helps to create a more uniform and defined curl. Using very narrow rods or heated clamps may not be as effective in achieving the desired result, and a body wave may not provide enough structure for the hair.

    • Protection 

    • Sensation 

    • Digestion 

    • Excretion 

    Correct Answer
    A. Digestion 
    Explanation
    The skin is not involved in the process of digestion. Digestion is the process of breaking down food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed and used by the body, and it primarily occurs in the gastrointestinal tract. The skin's main functions include protection, sensation, and excretion. It acts as a barrier to protect the body from external threats, helps in sensing touch, temperature, and pain, and also plays a role in excreting waste products through sweat.

    Your client asks you to remove a hair from a facial mole while you are arching their eyebrows. You should :

    • Go ahead and remove it

    • Remove it wearing sterile gloves 

    • Refuse to remove it 

    • Ask the salon owner for permission 

    Correct Answer
    A. Refuse to remove it 
    Explanation
    Refusing to remove the hair from the facial mole while arching the client's eyebrows is the correct answer. As a beautician or eyebrow specialist, it is important to prioritize the safety and well-being of the client. Removing a hair from a mole can potentially cause harm or infection, especially if not done by a medical professional. It is best to advise the client to consult a dermatologist or a healthcare professional who can safely remove the hair from the mole.

    The skin serves as an organ of the excretory system when a person 

    • Shivers 

    • Bleeds 

    • Sweats 

    • Faints 

    Correct Answer
    A. Sweats 
    Explanation
    When a person sweats, the skin helps in excreting waste products from the body. Sweat glands in the skin produce sweat, which contains water, salts, and other waste substances like urea. Sweating is a mechanism to regulate body temperature and eliminate toxins. As sweat evaporates from the skin's surface, it cools down the body. This process not only helps in maintaining the body's temperature but also aids in excreting waste products, making the skin an organ of the excretory system.

    Which is the most courteous effective way to deal with client complaints about a salon service?

    • Listen to the client's whole story and then suggest a solution 

    • Tell the client that no one has ever had that problem before 

    • Tell the client that he or she should use another salon in the future 

    • Agree with everything the client says 

    Correct Answer
    A. Listen to the client's whole story and then suggest a solution 
    Explanation
    The most courteous effective way to deal with client complaints about a salon service is to listen to the client's whole story and then suggest a solution. By actively listening to the client's concerns, it shows that you value their feedback and are committed to finding a resolution. After understanding their perspective, suggesting a solution demonstrates that you are proactive in addressing their concerns and willing to take action to improve their experience.

    Which statement about the use of how wax to remove hair is CORRECT?

    • The wax is applied in the opposite direction of hair growth 

    • The wax is removed  slowly and gently 

    • The wax is removed in the opposite direction of hair growth 

    • The wax is removed in the same direction of hair growth 

    Correct Answer
    A. The wax is removed in the opposite direction of hair growth 
    Explanation
    When using wax to remove hair, it is important to remove the wax in the opposite direction of hair growth. This allows the wax to effectively grip the hair and pull it out from the root. Removing the wax in the same direction as hair growth would not effectively remove the hair, as it would simply glide over the surface of the skin. Removing the wax slowly and gently is also important to minimize discomfort and reduce the risk of skin irritation or injury.

    • Be as plain as possible 

    Correct Answer
    A. Enhance your best features 
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Enhance your best features".

    The major difference between a perm and body wave results from the:

    • Type of lotion used 

    • Type of neutralizer used 

    • Size of rod used 

    • Length of time the neutralizer is left on 

    Correct Answer
    A. Size of rod used 
    Explanation
    The major difference between a perm and body wave results from the size of rod used. A perm typically uses smaller rods, resulting in tighter and more defined curls, while a body wave uses larger rods, creating looser and softer waves. The size of the rod determines the size and shape of the curl or wave pattern achieved.

    A method of cleaning instruments that kills all microorganism, including bacterial spores is:

    • Decontamination

    • Sanitation

    • Sterilization

    • Washing 

    Correct Answer
    A. Sterilization
    Explanation
    Sterilization is the correct answer because it is the only method mentioned that kills all microorganisms, including bacterial spores. Decontamination refers to the removal or reduction of contaminants, but it may not necessarily kill all microorganisms. Sanitation typically involves cleaning to reduce the number of microorganisms to a safe level, but it may not eliminate all spores. Washing refers to the removal of dirt and debris, but it does not necessarily kill microorganisms. Therefore, sterilization is the most effective method for completely eliminating all microorganisms.

    Which statement about hair growth is NOT correct?

    • The rate of hair growth is about 1/2 inch per month 

    • The rate of hair growth is the same on all parts of the body 

    • The rate of hair growth differs for men and women 

    • The rate of hair growth declines with age 

    Correct Answer
    A. The rate of hair growth is the same on all parts of the body 
    Explanation
    The statement "The rate of hair growth is the same on all parts of the body" is not correct. Hair growth rates can vary on different parts of the body. For example, hair on the scalp tends to grow faster than hair on the arms or legs. Additionally, hair growth rates can also vary among individuals due to factors such as genetics, hormonal influences, and overall health.

    • Contagious disease of the sebaceous glands 

    Correct Answer
    A. Accumulation of sebaceous matter under the skin

    A steatome or sebaceous cyst is an accumulation of sebaceous matter under the skin. Sebaceous matter is a waxy substance produced by the sebaceous glands, and when it becomes trapped under the skin, it can form a cyst. This cyst is typically filled with a thick, yellowish substance and can vary in size. It is not a contagious disease, nor is it a chronic inflammation or subcutaneous tumor.

    Soft water is preferable to hard water for shampooing because it 

    • Holds its temperature better 

    • Works p better lather

    • Feels softer on the client's skin

    • Leaves an attractive residue behind 

    Correct Answer
    A. Works p better lather
    Explanation
    Soft water is preferable to hard water for shampooing because it works up a better lather. Hard water contains minerals like calcium and magnesium, which can react with the soap or shampoo and form a scum, making it difficult to create a good lather. Soft water, on the other hand, lacks these minerals and allows the shampoo to easily create a rich and foamy lather. This not only helps in effectively cleaning the hair and scalp but also provides a more enjoyable and satisfying experience for the client.

    For a client with very light skin, you should choose a foundation that is 

    • A shade lighter than the natural skin tone 

    • The same as the natural skin tone 

    • A shade darker then the natural skin tone 

    • A rosy shade 

    Correct Answer
    A. The same as the natural skin tone 
    Explanation
    For a client with very light skin, it is recommended to choose a foundation that is the same as the natural skin tone. This is because using a foundation that matches the natural skin tone helps to create a seamless and natural look, without appearing too light or too dark on the skin. Using a foundation that is a shade lighter or darker than the natural skin tone may result in an uneven or unnatural appearance. A rosy shade may not be suitable for a client with very light skin, as it may add unnecessary pink undertones to the complexion.

    Because semi-permanent color only deposits and does not lift color from the hair, you should select a color that is 

    • Very cool with no red highlights 

    • Lighter than the desired shade 

    • Black or very dark brown 

    • Darker than the desired shade 

    Correct Answer
    A. Lighter than the desired shade 
    Explanation
    When using semi-permanent color, it is important to select a color that is lighter than the desired shade. This is because semi-permanent color only deposits color onto the hair and does not lift any existing color. If you choose a color that is darker than the desired shade, it will not lighten your hair and may result in a color that is too dark. Selecting a color that is lighter allows for a more accurate and desired shade to be achieved.
