Ohio State Board Nail Technician Practice Exam

Prior to a pedicure, it is important to analyze feet for signs of disorders. This may include checking for skin or nail conditions, such as fungal infections or ingrown toenails. Soaking feet in warm water may be a step in the pedicure process, but it is not necessarily done prior. Applying nail polish and massaging the feet are both steps done during or after a pedicure, not before. Failing to analyze feet for any potential disorders can lead to further complications and discomfort during the pedicure.
