Aladin? Hand spa machine.
Laisa? Foot spa machine.
Very good!
E. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skill # 2.
The teacher will demonstrate on how to handle properly some of the nail care tools and
equipment.

Teacher Students
Class, choose a partner because later
on you will practice it with your partner.

Now that you have chosen your

partner I will show you on how to hold
and handle properly some of the nail
care tools that are commonly use in
nail care which are the nail file, cuticle
nail pusher, cuticle nipper, nail cutter,
and nail brush. Come to the front
watch me and listen to me.

Class, before handling the nail care

tools make sure that you wash your
hands or sanitize the hands by
applying alcohol or sanitizer because it
can reduce the risk of spreading
germs.

Apply cuticle remover on the cuticle of

each nail to soften the cuticles.

Nail pusher it is held in the same

manner as in writing with a pencil. The
dull spade side is used to push back
and loosen the cuticles. Keep cuticle
moist using cuticle remover while
working. Use the cuticle pusher in a
flat position to remove dead cuticle
adhering to the nail without scratching
the nail plate. In using the pusher,
avoid too much pressure to prevent
injury on tissues.

Nail cutter, hold clippers with cutting

edges downward between thumb,
index and middle finger. Press clipper
handles by squeezing them together
 and removes excess nail length.

Nail file, hold the file firmly in the right

or left hand (as the case may be), with
the thumb underneath it for support
and the other four fingers on its upper
surface. Place the file slightly under
the free edge and file the nail from
corner to center, shaping the nail.
Never file back and forth; this would
cause the nails to crack and split. Do
not file deep into the corners; this
weakens the nails, hurt the skin and
cause ingrown nails.

Cuticle nipper picks up the cuticle

nipper by the handles and turns the
cutting edges towards you; place the
bent tip of the index finger over
the top of the shank. Place the thumb
on the side of the handle and the
remaining fingers over the opposite
handle. Use it with utmost care to
remove dead cuticle and hangnails so
as not to injure live tissue

Nail brush, insert the ring finger and

pinky in the nail brush handle and
brush the nails with a downward
motion from the base to the fingertips
to clean the nails and fingers.

Hand and Foot Spa Machine

Make sure that electrical wirings are
dry and protected from accidental
water spillage. Set the machine to the
temperature that the client can
withstand.

F. Developing mastery.
The teacher will let the class practice in how to use properly some of the nail care tools.
Teacher Students
Class, since I’ve already shown you on Yes, ma’am.
how to hold and handle properly the
nail care tools, you will now practice it
with your partner and I’ll give you 30
 minutes to do it and make sure to
wash your hands or apply alcohol to
avoid spreading of germs

G. Finding practical applications of concept and skill in daily living.

The teacher will ask questions to the students.
Teacher Students
Class, why do you think it is important
to learn on how to use properly the nail
care tools and equipment?

Erica? To ensure the safety.

Mary Grace? To avoid wounds, nail damages and possible
infection.
Very good.

H. Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson.

The teacher will ask questions to the students.

Teacher Students
Class, how do you use properly the
nail pusher, nail cutter, nail file, cuticle
nipper foot spa machine, and hand
spa machine and the safety
procedures to be observe while using
it?

Cecile? Nail pusher it is held in the same manner as in

writing with a pencil. The dull spade side is

file back and forth; this would cause the nails
to crack and split. Do not file deep into the
corners; this weakens the nails, hurt the skin
and cause ingrown nails.

Jericho? Cuticle nipper pick up the cuticle nipper by the

handles and turn the cutting edges towards
