What is It

There are health risks that people will encounter at the nail salon if the owner
or workers failed to disinfect and clean their tools and equipment. If you want to go to
a salon, you should be mindful when you visit there and observe the surroundings.
Beautician or someone who is working in a salon needs to know the basics of
preventive and corrective maintenance. When we say preventive maintenance, it is
a maintenance that is regularly performed on a piece of tool or equipment to lessen

12
the likelihood of failing it. Corrective maintenance on the other hand is a
maintenance task performed to identify, isolate, and to correct a fault so that the
failed equipment can be restored to an operational condition.

CLASSIFICATION OF FUNCTIONAL & NON-FUNCTIONAL TOOLS

& EQUIPMENT

Functional Tools are those tools that are in a good condition and can
perform its function well. Non-functional Tools are those tools that cannot be able
to perform its function because of damage part/parts. To know how to classify nail
tools and equipment is important. By inspecting the tools and checking its
performance, you can tell whether a tool is functional or not. Functional tools and
equipment are stored safely in accordance with salon requirements and local health
regulations. Non-functional tools and equipment are segregated and labeled properly
either for repair or for discarding.

KEEPING TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT SAFE, CLEAN, AND FUNCTIONAL

1. Sterilize metal tools after each use in a

hospital-grade disinfectant that is
bactericidal, virucidal, and fungicidal. This
disinfectant can be found in beauty supply
stores. Immerse the tools in the disinfectant
for 10 minutes.

2. Disinfect foot basins after each use with

a bleach solution. Make a 1-10 solution by
mixing one-part bleach with 10 parts water.
Using gloves, rinse the basin with the
solution to disinfect. If necessary, scrub with
a detergent to remove any dirt or debris.

13
 3. Use a boiling method of sterilization once
a month to disinfect all metal tools.
Designate one pot for sterilization to
prevent cross-contamination with food.
Submerge the tools in boiling water for 10
minutes. Drain the tools and allow them to
dry.

4. Store sterilized metal tools in an airtight,

zipper-sealed bag to keep them from being
exposed to dirt and bacteria. Be sure tools
are completely dry before storing them. If
waiting more than a couple of weeks before
the next nail care service, sterilize the tools
again before use.
5. Inspect tools and equipment regularly to
identify defective ones for repair,
replacement or condemnation.

Regular maintenance is important to keep the tools and equipment reliable and
safe to use. Also, it is important to check and inspect tools and equipment before
doing the service to determine which one is damaged or not and report immediately.
Failure to inspect defective tools can cause infection and minor or fatal injuries.
Regular maintenance is a routine maintenance done on a regular basis, whether
that be daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. Routine maintenance is an important part of
keeping tools and equipment up to date and functional.

KEEPING THE WORKPLACE CLEAN AND SAFE

1. All beauty salons must be well-lighted and well-ventilated and must be in
good sanitary condition.
2. The salon premises must be free from rodents, vermin, flies or other

14
 similar insects.
3. All salon establishments must be provided with continuous running hot
