Preparing the tools and equipment in a certain activity makes your job easier

What’s In
As well as using our hands for all sorts of practical tasks, we also use them
as a way of expressing ourselves and emphasizing what we are saying. They are one
of the first things people notice, which is why we need to make the most of them.
Beautifully manicured and maintained nails are much-prized attributes that speak
volumes about your health and grooming, not to mention your attention to detail.
Everyone can have great looking hands and feet with basic care, meticulous
grooming and regular visits to a professional manicurists and pedicurists. Here they
will be buffed, trimmed, softened, painted and filed, massage and lathered, sloughed,
primped and preened over.
Manicurists and pedicurists are now focused on a lot more than just the
natural nail. These days they need to be fully versed nail technicians, conversant in
advanced nail technologies and methods, creativity and artistry, business
management, and so such more. One of the fastest-growing segments in the beauty
business, the nail industry is constantly evolving with new technologies, techniques
and products continually being introduced, providing the nail technician with so
much more to ensure the luxury of beautiful nails.

What’s New
Can You Guess Where Manicured Nails Started?
A History of Nail Care
Manicured nails can be traced back some 4,000 years to Southern Babylon,
where noblemen used solid gold implements to manicure their nails. Manicure
instruments have also been found in Egypt’s royal tomb. Body decoration, including
henna as a stain for fingernails and toenails has been practiced across the world for
centuries.
Aristocrats grew their nails up to almost 10 inches long as a sign that they
performed no manual labor and to indicate their wealth and privilege. Great care was
taken to protect each nail: they were often encased in silver or gold sheaths lined
with soft padded silk.
The French manicure made its first appearance in eighteenth-century Paris.
Its signature white tips and natural pink base found favor in the French court and,
years later were revived in the 1920’s and 1930’s. By the turn of the nineteenth
century, nails were being tinted with scented red oils, powders, creams and polished
or buffed with a chamois cloth rather than being simply painted.
Today, our fascination with beautiful hands and nails continues to grow,
resulting in the multibillion dollar industry seen worldwide today.
