Explain why an understanding of anatomy will help you become a better nail technician?

you need to know anatomoy because you are working with the body. In a pedicure or manicure you can massage the clients arms, hands, feet, and legs. However, if you know how the muscles work, you can give a better massage, that will benefit the client, instead of massaging the wrong way and hurting the client by stretching muscles the wrong way. Also, if your client has some type of disease or infection, you must know so you can protect yourself and them. If a client has diebetes...you can't cut cuticles or smooth out their feet because of the lack of blood to the feet, if you make the client bleed, he/she cannot fight infection as well as us. If clients have any type of infection, fungi, disorder, or has had surgery you have to know if you can work on them or not. So being a nail tech. isn't easy...you have to know things like anatomy, chemistry and about all hand and foot diseasesExplain why an understanding of anatomy will help you become a better nail technician?
I have no idea, maybe it's because certain deficiencies and diseases can affect the quality of ones nails? Such as lack of iron ... I don't know!Explain why an understanding of anatomy will help you become a better nail technician?
ummmmmm, I don't know
I had the same odd thinking when I was forced to learn about x=2, y=4 what is the total of z?? I now have enjoyed a fruitful career in retail warehousing and have never been asked what z stands for!!! Good luck with the nail thing.
you're painting nails!!! why would you need anatomy???
I can't see that the two are connected!
Messing with someones nails is quite an dangerous thing if you do it wrong. If you buff or file someones nails in the wrong way, you can damage their nails which take a long time to heal. Nails take months to grow.


Lots of nerves are under the nail bed , so we have to learn how damage can be avoided/ dealt with. To be a nail technician, you also have to do pedicures, and to do this it involves massaging people's feet and legs, you have to learn about the muscles in the leg, and all the layers of skin( there are 5 in total) and also, what problems you can have with your feet which would stop you from doing a pedicure. Basically, our nails and feet are connected to hundreds of nerves so we have to learn about all this to do a correct job.
Because colleges are trying to find reasons to justify keeping so many teachers on staff. Also most employers want rediculously overqualified staff. I'm currently working as a nursing assistant and I had to learn anatomy and physiology and although I work in health care I don't even most of it.
