It seems that some are either unaware of correct terminology due to a faulty education OR some are simply in the habit and don't correct themselves of using incorrect terminology.

Having said that, I'd like to either A) educate those that don't know better YET... or B) remind those that do, and sometimes get lazy.

Correct terminology is IMPORTANT. Especially given the climate of this industry with backwoods-garage techs running rampant everywhere, and NSS sprouting shops on every corner.

Knowledge is POWER. Education goes a long way to improving the state of this industry.

How about we either A) re-read this or B) read it for the first time and learn something the right way?

Thanks!

That was great,I was taught this when doing my training with CND. I have his book on my xmas list lol, me being the person I am, I love anythin scientific and love to know not how you do things but also the reasons WHY, always need facts and proof lol, hence me doing a bsc. xxxx

I can't believe how many still get this wrong when it is so easy to get it right and by so doing we teach others (including clients). Every professional should use the right terminology.

Just the other day I had a technician write to me with a problem and she tried to describe it to me and because of her not knowing any parts of the nail by the correct terms, I couldn't understand a thing she was talking about. Very frustrating for me and for her I'm sure.
