i was taught to cover with a plaster too. I used to have warts on my hands as a child and my son had a big one on his knee recently that i treated with wartner, that also took about 3 applications to get rid of it!
I dont know if they are contagious or not but no-one in the family has caught them off my son.
I dont think it would freak me out if someone came to me with warts, i'd just cover them and get on with it without making a big deal of it to the client. I think gloves etc is a little OTT personally. I would be mortified if I went for a set of nails and was treated like a leper! JMO.
They did freak me out but I didn't let the client see this, I didn't make a big deal of it to the client, just to myself :wink2:
They looked like miniature cauliflowers.
