manicure is a cosmetic beauty treatment for nails and hands performed at home or in nail salons. A manicure consists of filing and forming a free edge, pushing and cutting (with cuticle and cuticle cuticles) of nonliving tissue (but limited to cuticles and fingernails), treatment with various fluids, hand massage, and nail nail application. When the same applies to toenails and feet, this treatment is referred to as a pedicure.
Some manicures include painting drawings or designs on the nails, or applying small decals or imitation jewelry. Other nail care may include an application of artificial gel nails, tips, or acrylics, which can be referred to as French manicures .
In many areas, manicurists are licensed and follow the rules. Because skin is manipulated and sometimes trimmed, there is a risk of spreading infection when the tool is used in many people. Therefore, having proper sanitation can be a serious problem.

History
Manicure started 5,000 years ago.
In the United States, the nail care industry is dominated by Vietnamese-American nail owners and technicians. In 1975, while visiting refugees in California, actress Tippi Hedren noticed that women were attracted to her Hollywood style and makeup. Hedren directs his manicurist to instruct the women in nail care and help them find work.

French manicures
Jeff Pink founder of professional brand Orly famous nails by creating the look of Natural nails which was then called French manicure in 1976.
Nails that have experienced a French manicure are characterized by a lack of artificial base color and white tip on the free edge of the nail. For this reason, they are sometimes referred to as "French tips". The tips of the nails are painted white, while the rest of the nails are polished with a pink or matching nude color. French manicure can be achieved with fake nails. However, it is also common to do a French manicure on natural nails. Another technique is to whiten the underside of the nail with a white pencil and thicker colored paint across the nail.
Hot oil manicures
Hot oil manicure is a special type of manicure that cleans the cuticle and softens it with oil. The types of oils that can be used are mineral oil, olive oil, some lotions or commercial preparations in electric heaters.
Powder manicure dip
Dip manicure powder is an alternative to traditional acrylic nail polish and gel. Dip powder has become popular because of its ease of application. They are similar to traditional silk or fiberglass enhancements, with fibers replaced by acrylic powders. Both methods rely on cyanoacrylate coating on natural nails and wrap fibers or acrylic powders. While one fiber layer is typical, multiple layers of powder and cyanoacrylate powder can be used in dip nails.
Paraffin wax treatment
The hands or feet can be covered with liquid paraffin wax for softening and moisturizing. Paraffin wax is used because it can be heated to a temperature of more than 95 ° F (35 ° C) without burning or injuring the body. The intense heat allows for deeper absorption of emollients and essential oils. Candles are usually impregnated with various vegetable materials such as aloe vera, azulene, chamomile, or tea tree oil, and fruit candles such as apples, peaches, and strawberries, often used in salons. Occasionally, the lotion is rubbed on the hands or feet before being coated with paraffin. Treatment of paraffin wax is often charged in addition to a standard manicure or pedicure. They are often not covered in general training and are a rare treatment in most nail salons.
Professional services should not include dipping the hands or feet of the client into a communal paraffin bath, as wax can be a vector for the disease. Paraffin should be applied in a way that avoids contamination, often by placing some wax into a bag or glove, placed in the client's hands or feet and covered with a warm towel, cotton gloves, or booty to maintain warmth. Paraffin is left for a few minutes to cool.

Sanitation options
In Australia, the United States, and other countries, many nail salons offer personal nail equipment for purchase to avoid some of the sanitary issues in the salon. These kits are often stored in the salon and given to clients to take home, or thrown away after use. They are only used when clients come for treatment.
Another option is to give the client files and cuticle logs after the manicure. Since the 1970s, most professional salons use faster electric nail files and produce higher quality results, especially with acrylic nail enhancers.
Shape
There are several forms of nails: the basic shape is almond, oval, pointed, round, square, oval, square with rounded corners, and straight with rounded edges. The square oval shape is sometimes known as "squoval", a term coined in 1984. Squoval is considered a sturdy form, useful for those who work with their hands.
