-is a planned system of
working to prevent illness
and injury at work by
recognizing and identifying
hazards and risks.

Harm- is an adverse
health effects on
something or someone
under certain conditions
at work.

Risk - the chance or
probability that a person
will be harmed or
experience an adverse
health effect if exposed
to a hazard.

Identifying workplace
hazards means looking
for those things at your
workplace that have the
potential to cause harm.

Common
hazards in a
beauty salon

1)Electrical Hazard-Many of the
electrical appliances used in the
beauty salons can create serious
health and safety risks,
particularly in wet conditions.


2.Chemical Hazard -These

produced at work that have the
potential to harm the health
and safety of people at work.

3.Fire Hazard-you must
be aware of and trained
in fire and emergency
evacuation procedures
in the workplace

4.Biological Hazards
Biohazards- also refer to
biological substances that pose
a threat to the health of living
organisms, primarily that of
humans.

5). Ergonomics

a. Prevents damage to
workers’ nails and skin.

b. To prevent skin from
absorbing potentially
harmful chemicals which
may cause skin allergies,
irritation, or other related
problems.

c. So as not to generate a
lot of dust, it may be
necessary to wear a dust
mask to minimize
breathing in particles while
filing or buffing nails.

d. Protects the
wearer's face and
prevents the breathing
of air contaminated
with chemical and/or
biological agents

Pedicure Services

Structure of Nails
Nails are a part of the skin and
are made up of the same
protein, keratin (KER-a-tin), as
skin and hair. It is composed
of then hardest keratin.
The technical term for nail in
onyx ( ON-iks).

The purpose of nails
is to protect the ends
of fingers and toes
and to help the
fingers grasp small
objects.

Adult fingernails
grow at an average
rate of 1/8 inch a
month; toenails
grow more easily.

The characteristics
of healthy nails are
smooth, shiny, and
translucent pink.

Nails replace
themselves every
four months and
grow more quickly in
summer than in
winter.

The nail grows
fastest on the
middle finger and
slowest on the
thumb.

The Diagram of the Nail and
its Structure

Nail body or Plate -
is the main part or
plate of nail that is
attached to the skin at
the tip of the finger.

Nail root - is where
the nail growth begins.
It is embedded
underneath the skin at
the base of the nail.

Free edge
- is the end of the
nail that extends
beyond the fingertip.

Structure Beneath the
Nail
The structures
beneath the nail include
the nail bed, matrix,
and lunula.

Nail Bed
-is the portion of skin
beneath the nail body that
the nail plates rest upon. It is
supplied with blood vessels
that provide the nourishment
necessary for nail growth.

Matrix (May-triks)
- contains nerves together
with lymph and blood
vessels that produce the
nail cells and control the
rate of growth of the nails.

Lunula
- is the light-colored half-
moon shape at the base of
the nail. This is where
the matrix connects with
the nail bed.

Skin Surrounding the Nail
Cuticle( KYOO-ti-kel)
-is the overlapping skin
around the nail. A normal
cuticle should be loose and
pliable.

Nail Fold Or Mantle
(MAN-tel) is the deep
fold or skin at the base
of the nail where the
nail root is embedded.

Nail Grooves
- are slits or tracks in
the nail bed at the
sides of the nail on
which the nail grows.

Nail Wall
-is the skin on the
sides of the nail
above the grooves

Eponychium (ep-o-NIK-ee-um)
-is the thin line of skin
at the base of the nail
that extends from the
nail wall to the nail
plate.

Perionychium
(PER-i-o-nikee-um)
- is the part of the
skin that surrounds
the entire nail area.

Hyponychium
(heye-poh-NIK-ee-
um) is the part of the
skin under the free
edge of the nail.

1. Oval Nail
It is common among people
with long, perfect nail beds. It
may be styled slightly
rounded at the base and
slightly pointed at the
fingertips.

2. Square nail
It is created by allowing
the nail to grow out straight
and then filing the tip straight
across at right angles with
the rest of the nail plate.

3. Round Nail
This is ideal for shorter
nails. The nail is ideal to
grow out at the sides for
approximately 1.5 mm and
then the tip is filed into a
rounded shape.

4. Squoval Nail
 The squoval nail is
a square nail but the
softer edges of an
oval.

5. Pointed Nail
A pointed nail is filed away
at the sides to a point at the
tip; this shape is very weak as
the sides of the nail (which
provide the strength) are
totally lost.

Nail Diseases and Disorders

Nail diseases are conditions of both
the nail, and the surrounding skin which
result from bacterial, fungal, and viral
infections
Nail disorder, on the other hand is a
condition caused by injury to the nail or
disease or imbalance in the body.

An inflammation is red and sore. An
infection will have evidence of pus.
Broken skin or nail tissue is a cut or
tear that exposes deeper layers of these
structures. Raised or swollen skin
appears fatter than normal skin and rise
above the normal level.
Onychosis is a technical term applied
to nail disease.
