Guys,
I'm really stuck here.
I have my practical exam for ITEC Manicure & Pedicure tomorrow and last night in class we did our pre-asessment.
Whilst I was carrying out the manicure I said, "I am using the knife to remove all non living tissue and debris from the nail plate" and "I am using the nippers to remove any hang nails".
After the asessment our tutor said we were all wrong.
She said
The knife is for loosening the eponychium and
The nippers is for removing any non living tissue.
I am totally confused now, which is right?
I looked up our book "The encyclopedia of nails" and what I said appears to be right and the only reason we all said that is because that's what she's been telling us in class. Now she says we're all wrong and the above is correct?
I don't want to say the wrong thing in the exam tomorrow but I really feel I should go with what is in the book and now what she said.
We have already had other discrepancies about issues, ie ITEC say Beaus lines are single horizontal ridges whereas most books say they are multiple.
Please help, I need to get this sussed by tomorrow!
thanks guys
Linda
