Good grooming is keeping oneself clean, neat and attractive. It includes personal
hygiene proper care of the body and wear of clothes that are clean neat and appropriate for the
occasion. Good grooming not only enhances the personality but it can be used as an effective
tool in establishing good relationship. A well-groomed person is liked and appreciated by
everyone. In turn, one who is well-liked and appreciated builds self confidence and radiates a

Part of good grooming is caring for one’s hair, hands and feet. A hair that goes well with
one’s face, smooth and clean looking hands and feet, well-trimmed finger nails and toenails
contribute to a well-groomed physical appearance.

Cosmetology is a field that includes several specialties. Those who are barbers or hair stylists
are part of the cosmetology field. As well, those specializing in nail care, such as manicurists
and pedicurists, are cosmetologists. However, other practitioners can be said to work in the field
of cosmetology as well. For example, those who shampoo hair are considered cosmetologists

Cosmetology fields like hairstyling, barbering, and manicuring, tend to require both training and
licensing prior to being able to legally practice. Training tends to occur in beauty schools.
Requirements prior to entering a beauty or barbering school are varied. Some schools require a
minimum of a high school education, while others merely require proven ability to read and
write.Once a student has completed school, he or she takes both written and practical exams
that demonstrate knowledge of subjects covered.

Tips for Good Manicure / Pedicure

1. The most flattering nail shape is not long or short or square, it's "squoval" -- not quite
square and not quite oval. Get the look yourself by filing nails into a shape that mirrors
the curve of your nail base. Square tips can make fingers look chubby, To ensure your
nails are the same length after filing, line each nail up with its counterpart.

2. Don't shake the nail polish bottle, instead roll it between your palms. This mixes the
polish without causing air bubbles.

3. Before polishing clean nails, soak a cotton ball in nail polish remover and swipe across
nails. This will remove any excess oils or soap than can cause peeling once polish is
applied.
4. One trick for applying nail polish: Hold the brush between the thumb and middle finger
while resting your forefinger on the top of the cap.

5. To get the best results, apply thin layers. Start with a thin layer of basecoat, then apply a
thin layer of polish down the middle then one on the left and one on the right. After the
first coat dries for a couple minutes, repeat, then follow with a thin layer of topcoat.

6. Once your pedicure or manicure is complete, run an orangewood stick dipped in nail
polish remover along either side of nail to fix any mistakes.

7. Speed up the drying process by aiming a blow-dryer at toes (set on cool) for a minute at
a time. Be sure to keep the dryer at least 12 inches from your feet.

8. If you leave the house and you want your pedicure is dry,apply cuticle oil over the
polish. This will keep anything from sticking to your polish.

9. If nails are yellowed or stained, apply a drop of lemon or lavender oil onto the nails and
then use a buffer to buff off the stains. You can also buff nails with a peroxide
toothpaste.

7
 10. For an extra spa feeling to your home pedicure, nuke a damp towel in the microwave for
a couple minutes, slather feet in moisturizer and wrap them in the warm towel.

Protecting Your Manicure

1. A fresh swipe of topcoat every other day on your manicure and once a week on your
pedicure will keep the polish from chipping.

2. When it comes to chipped polish, a nail buffer is your best friend. Repair a chip by
smoothing the ragged edges with a buffer (the more smooth the chip is, the better the fix
is). Fill in the chip with polish. Once it's dry, apply a coat over the entire nail.

3. Don't file nails after a shower, when they are too soft. File in one direction only to prevent
tears.

4. For a pedicure, use a special pedicure nail clipper made for clipping toenails. The
straight-edge works better for feet because they don't allow nails to become curved,
which can lead to painful ingrown nails. You can round the edges slightly with a file.

5. For stubborn polish that stains, press the cotton on the nail for several seconds before
wiping off. Don't be stingy with the polish remover. The more nail remover you have on
the cotton, the easier it will be to remove.

6. Protect a manicure by wearing rubber gloves when cleaning and gardening.

7. If you suffer from dry cuticles, keep cuticle oil in your bag or on your desk at all times.
Cuticle oils tend to be more effective than creams.

8. If you are a Nail-biter? Get a manicure every week for 12 weeks. According to
psychologists," if you can commit to 12 weeks, you won't bite your nails. It tastes gross
and you'll also think twice because of the cost of getting nails done. There are many
women who backslide in week 3, but it is suggested to be persevering.

Pedicures: The Secret to Super-Soft Feet

1. Keep dead skin at bay by regularly exfoliating in the shower with a pumice stone.
Apply a thick lotion or cream to feet then wear socks to bed.

2. For extra soft feet, try this trick. Apply a thick coat of diaper rash cream to feet
(yes, that's what they meant), put feet in a thin plastic bag, then put socks over it.
If you can sleep like that , then you are guaranteed the softest feet ever in the
morning.

C. Apply ways of maintaining facial care and differentiate the different

kinds of facial make-up

Make up- refers to the cosmetics applied in the face to improve or change appearance
Cosmetics are substances used to enhance the appearance or odor of the human body.
Cosmetics include skin-care creams, lotions, powders, perfumes, lipsticks, fingernail and toenail
polish, eye and facial makeup, towelettes, permanent waves, colored contact
lenses, haircolors, hair sprays and gels, deodorants, hand sanitizer, baby products, bath
oils, bubble baths, bath salts, butters and many other types of products. A subset of cosmetics
is called "make-up," which refers primarily to colored products intended to alter the user’s
appearance.
Types of Make-Up

8
 Ordinary or day make –up
This is basically simple and light make-up. It is appropriate in ordinary occasions, church
or going to work. Choose the shade that is very light. The time of the day determines how
much make-up is to be applied. Day make up is light and suits casual wear. Applied lightly,
neatly, and beautiful it will go with any kind of clothes for day wear.

 Evening make-up or heavy make up

It uses darker shades. Heavy application of make-up cannot give a glowing effect to the
person. Color or shades of make up are carefully chosen to complement the color of the
dress.

 Photographic make-up
Screen make – up is applied to the customer who wants to appear beautiful in pictures.
Those who look attractive or good looking in pictures but are not in person. On the other
hand, there are those who, due to poor lighting or incorrect make up application, appear
unattractive in pictures.

 Stage screen/theatrical make up. What in seen on the screen are cinematic effects. Stage
make up can change the appearance of an individual’s face through the use of varied
cosmetics. Some of these cosmetics are plaster of Paris, Vaseline, zinc oxide and spirit
gum among others.

Preparation
Usually, make up is given after a facial massage. However, if the make up is applied
before a comb-out is given, remove rollers and clips and be sure to drape the patron’s head
to protect her hair.

The patron is reclined in a facial chair with her head slightly raised. The cosmetologist may
sit at the back of the patron to give the service or may move to the front of the patron for ease
of application.

Implements and Supplies

Lipstick – one of the most commonly used make up types. This is intended to be used on the
lips in order to add color as well as texture. There are also certain varieties of it that have
chemicals in it that would make our lips appear plumper than usual without the need for
expensive collagen injections.
Blush – also referred to as rouge, this is used on the cheekbones in order to add more color.
Typically, it is made of talcum or powder but there are variations today that come in either gel or
cream form.

9
Eye shadow – this serves the same purpose as the blush but is applied on the eyelids and
under eyebrows instead. It draws more attention to that particular area and is used to create
depth and dimension.
Mascara – this goes right on our eyelashes in order to make them appear fuller, thicker, darker
and longer. The different variations of this can come in either liquid or cream form and is applied
with the use of a mascara wand.

Eyeliner – this appears in the form of a thin pencil with kohl inside. It is often used together with
the eye shadow in order to further define the eyes and give it more depth. These commonly
come in either black or brown but one would also be able to find them in lighter and more
colorful hues

Lipgloss, is a sheer form of lipstick that is in a liquid/ solid form.

Lipstick, lip gloss, lip liner, lip plumper, lip balm, lip conditioner, lip primer, and lip
boosters.[3] Lip stains have a water or gel base and may contain alcohol to help the product stay
on the lips. The idea behind lip stains is to temporarily saturate the lips with a dye, rather than
covering them with a colored wax. Usually designed to be waterproof, the product may come
with an applicator brush or be applied with a finger.

Concealer makeup used to cover any imperfections of the skin. Concealer is often used for any
extra coverage needed to cover blemishes, or any other marks. Concealer is often thicker and
more solid than foundation, and provides longer lasting, and more detailed coverage.
Foundation, used to smooth out the face and cover spots or uneven skin coloration. Usually a
liquid, cream, or powder, as well as most recently, a light and fluffy mousse, which provides
excellent coverage as well.[3] Foundation primer can be applied before or after to get a smoother
finish. Some primers come in powder or liquid form to be applied before foundation as a base,
while other primers come as a spray to be applied after you are finished to help make-up last
longer. Foundation – considered as the base, is applied on the face to even out skin tone and
give it a smooth, velvety feel. It comes in a variety of colors as well as coverage types. So
whether you’re looking for something thick or sheer in terms of coverage, you would be able to
find something that suits your needs.

Face powder, used to set the foundation, giving a matte finish, and also to conceal small flaws
or blemishes.

Rouge, blush or blusher, cheek coloring used to bring out the color in the cheeks and make
the cheekbones appear more defined. This comes in powder, cream, and liquid forms.[3]

Bronzer, used to give skin a bit of color by adding a golden or bronze glow.[3]

Mascara is used to darken, lengthen, and thicken the eyelashes. It is available in natural colors
such as brown and black, but also comes in bolder colors such as blue, pink, or purple. There
are many different formulas, including waterproof for those prone to allergiesor sudden tears.
Often used after an eyelash curler and mascara primer.[3] There are now also many mascaras
with certain components to help lashes to grow longer and thicker. There are specific minerals
and proteins that are combined with the mascara that can benefit, as well as beautify

Eyelid glue, eyelash extensions, eye liner, eye shadow, eye shimmer, and glitter eye
pencils as well as different color pencils used to color and emphasize the eyelids (larger eyes
give a more youthful appearance).Eyebrow pencils, creams, waxes, gels and powders are
used to color and define the brows.[3]

Setting Spray, used to keep applied makeup intact for long periods of time.

Eyebrow Arching
Eyebrow arching is most commonly done by women to add precise visual definition to
eyebrows and enhance overall facial appearance. There are several methods for arching your
eyebrows, including wax treatments, most typically performed in salons by cosmetologists, or
tweezing, which you can easily do at home by yourself.

Importance of Eyebrow Arching

 Eyebrow arching has a marked effect on the beauty and contour of the face.

 The natural arch or growth of the eyebrow follows the bony structure or the curved line of
the orbit (eye socket). The majority of persons have a disorderly growth of hairs both
above and below the natural line. These hairs should be removed to give a clean-cut
and attractive appearance.

13
  Correct eyebrow arching gives a clean-cut expression and attractive appearance to the
face. The eyebrows must however fit the shape of the face and the shape of the eyes.
Shaping the eyebrows has thus become an art and a need.

4.Apply the basics in Barbering,Hair styling and Hair treatment

HISTORY OF BARBERING

 The word "barber" comes from the Latin word "barba,"

meaning beard. The earliest records of barbers show
that they were the foremost men of their tribe. They
were the medicine men and the priests.

 But primitive man was very superstitious and the early tribes believed that both good and
bad spirits, which entered the body through the hairs on the head, inhabited every
individual. The bad spirits could only be driven out of the individual by cutting the hair,
so various fashions of hair cutting were practiced by the different tribes and this made
the barber the most important man in the community.
 The barbers in these tribal days arranged all marriages and baptized all children. They
were the chief figures in the religious ceremonies. During these ceremonies, the hair

16
 was allowed to hang loosely over the shoulders so that the evil spirits could come
out. After the dancing, the long hair was cut in the prevailing fashion by the barbers and
combed back tightly so that the evil spirits could not get in or the good spirits get out.
 This rule by barbers was a common thing in ancient Asia. In fact, wherever there were
legends and superstitions about the hair, the barbers flourished. To this day in India, the
veneration of the hair continues and those who cut and dress the hair are important
characters.
 Barbers were unknown in Rome until 296 BC, when Ticinius Mena came to Rome from
Sicily and introduced shaving. Shaving soon became the fashion and the barber shop
became the gathering place for the Roman dandies. No people were better patrons of
the barbers than the Romans. They often devoted several hours each day to tonsorial
operations, which included shaving, hair cutting, hairdressing, massaging, manicuring
and the application of rare ointments and cosmetics of unknown formulas. The great
ladies of Rome always had a hairdresser among their slaves and the rich nobles had
private tonsors, as they were then called. Barbers were so highly prized that a statue
was erected to the memory of the first barber of Rome.

 CARE FOR THE HAIR AND SCALP

Composition of Hair
Hair composed of a protein substance called KERATIN which is present in all horny
growth such as nails, claws, and hoofs.

Chemical composition of hair are carbon, 50.65 %; hydrogen, 6.36 %; nitrogen, 17.14 %;
sulfur, 5.0 %; and oxygen, 20.8%.

Hair is divided into two principal parts:

1. Hair root – is that portion of the hair structure found beneath the skin surface. This part of the
hair is enclosed within the follicle.
2. Hair shaft – is that portion of the hair structure extending above the skin surface.
Color of Hair
The natural color of hair, its strength and texture, depend mainly on hereditary qualities of a
physical nature. The color of hair being an inherited characteristic is one which is easy to
observe and classify.
Hair Distribution
Hair is found all over the body except on the palms, soles, lips and eyelids.

Types of Hair on the Body

1. Long hair grow from the scalp, protects the scalp against the sun’s ray and injury, give
adornment to the head, and form pleasing frame for the face.

2. Short hair such as the eyebrow and the eyelashes, adds beauty and line of color to the face.
The eyelashes help protect the eyes from dust particles and light glare.

3. Lanugo hair is the fine, soft dowry hair of the cheek, forehead, and nearly all areas of the
body. It helps in the efficient evaporation of perspiration.

Hot oil treatment is used to give hair moisture as it gives the look of conditioned hair without
having to condition every day. If you have damaged or dry hair as a result of such things as
coloring, blow-drying, straightening, or other styling factors, then a hot oil treatment for hair may

How it works

Generally with a hot oil treatment for hair, they are used once a week. The bottle of oil is heated
by putting the bottle in hot water for an extended period of time. The conditioning treatment of
the hair gives more strength and body to the hair. The hot oil can help repair damaged and
weak hair as every strand gets the treatment it needs instantly when the oil is applied.

How to use it

After heating the tube of oil in the water, generally for a minute or so, you can massage the hot
oil treatment into your wet hair. Massage all the oil thoroughly in the hair so that all the hair will
be able to be exposed to the hot oil. Many times people that use hot oil treatments do not make
sure that all their hair is exposed and this can cause weakness to those areas of the hair. After
this is done, you can rinse the hair and the scalp thoroughly under the running water. After the
hot oil treatment is done processing, shampoo your hair as you regularly do. You can use the
hot oil treatment once or week or as often as

Dandruff
 Dandruff is a very common skin condition that nearly all people experience at one point
in their lives regardless of age or ethnicity.

 It affects the not just the scalp, but also the ears, eyebrows, sides of the nose, beard,
and less commonly the central (often hair-bearing) part of the chest.

 Dandruff can affect any hair-bearing area or an area with even very small hair follicles.
Other names for dandruff are seborrheic dermatitis orseborrhea.

18
  Dandruff is seen in all ages from babies to the elderly. In infancy, scalp dandruff is
commonly known as "cradle cap."

 In the teen years it has been called "druff" for short. Some people are simply more prone
to dandruff, and others experience periodic clearing cycles and periodic flare-ups of the
condition. Many furry pets such as dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters also have dandruff.

 Dandruff typically looks like dry, fine flaky skin on the scalp with areas of pink or red
inflamed skin. Many individuals have no scalp symptoms but simply complain of white
flakes on their shoulders, particularly noticeable on dark clothing. More advanced cases
may cause intense itching, burning, and unstoppable scratching.

 Some people are more prone to dandruff, and dandruff tends to be a chronic or
recurrent disorder with periodic ups and downs.

 Although it is not curable, it is generally quite easily controlled with proper skin and
hair hygiene.

 In babies, cradle cap usually clears after a few months. It may recur later in life as typical
dandruff. For some, dandruff may worsen with time. Although it may occur for a short
period, dandruff tends to recur throughout a person' s life or last a lifetime.

 Severe dandruff may be a very difficult and frustrating condition. An ongoing

combination treatment of multiple shampoos, washes, and creams and lotions may be
required to treat resistant cases. Overall, dandruff treatments are very safe and effective.
The best shampoo choices include antifungal shampoos such as ketoconazole (Nizoral).

HAIR SETTING AND HAIR STYLING

come in a variety of length and sizes.

Materials and Equipment Used in Styling

Tools: Supplies

1. Hair brush 1. Spray Net

2. Styling brush 2.Setting lotion
3. Teasing brush 3. Setting gel
4. Roller brush
5. Hair pins

Equipment

1. Hair dryer
2. Hair blower

How to Do Roller Setting

Get a friend to help you roll your hair; rolling long hair can make your arms tired.
If you've used a relaxer treatment in your hair, using rollers is the healthiest way to give your
hair volume. At one time in history, every woman owned a set of rollers. Roller setting is
something that takes practice and requires perfection.
Things needed:
 Leave-in conditioner * Metal clips
 Tail comb * Rollers
 Hairspray

20
  Wash hair thoroughly and apply a strong leave-in conditioner. Work the conditioner
through your hair. Dry hair thoroughly with a hair dryer. It is advisable to use rollers on
dry hair, since rolling on wet hair can produce unpredictable results.
 Use the tail comb -- a comb with a long pointy end -- to comb out your hair and remove
any tangles. Divide your hair into three sections -- the top of the head, around the
middle of the head and at the base of the head. Twist the hair in each section and
fasten it with a metal clip to keep it out of the way.
 Start with your first section of hair. Grab a piece of hair -- the more hair you grab, the
less it will curl in the roller. Spray the section with hairspray and comb it through. Pull a
roller to the ends of the section. Wrap the ends around the roller and roll the hair to the
skull. Fasten it down with two clips where the roller meets the head.
 Complete this process until the entire head of hair has been rolled up and allow it to
set-dry for two hours.

 Remove the curlers and comb through your hair with a brush to create a voluminous,
naturally bouncy look.

Tips & Warnings

 Keep each section soaking wet, especially the ends, they should "cling" to the rollers once
your start applying them.
 Use tension when rolling your hair. This is ensure that your hair will sit straight on the roller
and get a better curl and silkier finish
 Make sure the roller is clipped to the scalp. They should not feel nice and tense, not
wobbly.
 Use different rollers to achieve your look you want. Use smaller rollers for a tighter curl;
larger rollers for lose waves and curls.
 Decide if you like foam or setting lotion. I prefer foam, it makes the hair less crispy and
gives me a great feeling to my hair.
 A good roller set takes lot's of practice! Don't be surprised at this.
 Give yourself enough time to roll hair and sit under the dryer. The whole process will take
between 4-5 hours, so maybe think about roller setting on the weekends.
