Though more than 100 types of arthritis exist, two are most familiar: osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic autoimmune disease. Osteoarthritis, on the other hand, is often referred to as a “wear-and-tear” disease. Because of the repetitive nature of their work, nail techs are at risk to develop this form of arthritis over the course of their careers.
The demands of the job put nail techs at risk of developing chronic pain in their shoulders and back. Teach your students how proper posture can combat the risk by reducing muscle strain and fatigue.
Are your clients’ hands revealing their age? Educate your clients about the latest cosmetic procedures for turning back the clock and learn which topical treatments can help them combat age spots, crepey skin, prominent veins, and more.
Sometimes clients are just plain clueless about how their bad habits can make your job more difficult. By educating them, you can turn an awkward moment into a teachable moment.
