Taking care of your nails and hands are important, not only for sanitary reasons, but also for beautification as well.

Follow these simple yet very powerful tips to revitalize your nails.

Here, we will discuss a few of the top secrets to proper and essential hands and nail care. Tips are simple efficient and very effective and don't require much time or effort to do.

Successful Hand and Nail Care Tip #1 - Wash

The first rule to making sure your hands always look great is to wash them. Washing your hands with the right type of soap can keep your hands clean and healthy looking, not to mention ridding them of harmful bacteria at the same time. Make sure you use a soap that is gentle on the hands, yet tough on dirt. Bar soap works great for cleansing, but it can lead to drier hands.

Successful Hand and Nail Care Tip #2 - Nail Brush

Nail brushes are essential to keeping your fingernails clean and healthy looking. Be sure that you try to use the nail brush each time you wash your hands. While the brush is cleaning your fingernails, you are also getting a real treat, your fingers will love the feel and so will you.

Successful Hand and Nail Care Tip #3 - Use Lotions and Hand Creams

Overuse and frequent washing can dry your skin, particularly the hands. Therefore, be sure that you use lotion or hand cream as a follow up to washing your hands. Either one of these products will keep your hand moisturized, eliminating dry skin, as well as keep your hands feeling silky and soft throughout the day. All of this means great looking hands and nails.

Successful Hand and Nail Care Tip #4 - Avoid Nail Biting

If you are a nail biter, now is the time to take steps to break that habit. Nail biting creates infections, uneven, and ragged nails. In some extreme cases, nail biters can bite their nails down past the skin, which creates and unsightly look. There are many remedies and over the counter products for nail biting that you might want to consider. However there are many natural remedies you can opt for as well.

Successful Hand and Nail Care Tip #5 - Polish

While this is no real secret, it is our last tip. Keeping your nails polished with your favorite color will always keep your hands and nails looking great. You can paint the nails yourself or treat yourself to a manicure, making sure your cuticles look great, your nails are even and beautiful, and you give yourself a treat at the same time.

Your nails need the same attention that the rest of the body requires. In today's world it is difficult to find the time to really go out and get a professional to work on your nails, so these tips will give you an excellent opportunity to save time and money while looking after your nails. So the next time you look at your nails you will find them smiling back at you, thanking your for the care and affection that you give them.

 

Federico Beauty Institute Selected As Top US School For Student

Lauren DeQuiroz’s journey to Federico Beauty Institute took a couple of detours…but those detours were invaluable life lessons that led to a very positive outcome.

Although Lauren always knew she wanted to go to beauty school, she also felt it was important to experience college life.  Lauren attended University of Colorado, Boulder for two years before pursuing her dream to become a hair stylist.

 

Lauren enrolled in an 1800-hour Cosmetology program at a franchise school in the Denver area.  But a third of the way through the program, Lauren knew the school was not right for her. She observed very quickly that the school’s curriculum didn’t include materials or student exercises on what it takes to pass the State Boards (Licensure is a requirement to practice Cosmetology in most States).

Finding the Right Pivot Point School

Lauren began her search for a beauty school that met her requirements….a combination of hands-on, real-life practical training in a salon-like environment coupled with a curriculum consisting of rigorous “drills” for students on passing the State Boards.  A third factor -- locating a school that taught the Pivot Point curriculum – was equally important.

 

Lauren had become familiar with Pivot Point at the beauty school in Denver.  Pivot Point equipment, like tripods, was used at the school along with Pivot Point’s book, “Salon Fundamentals.”   Lauren asked and soon learned that the Denver school WAS NOT Pivot Point Certified, and had no plans to change their curriculum in the future.

She began an extensive research project to find the right beauty school that met her criteria.  She spent a lot of time on the Pivot Point Academy website and became sold on the Pivot Point hair and skin care education. 

 

We’ll teach you to see, think, create and adapt as a designer – not just duplicate the latest fashion trends – but to be the innovator of these trends.  Pivot Point website

 

Narrowing her search to a handful of beauty schools, Lauren found Federico’s website especially engaging and well-organized.  “I especially liked Gary Federico’s video,” she commented.  http://www.federico.edu/corporate-video

 Equally impressive was Federico’s responsiveness.  Lauren said, “Most schools I called weren’t very helpful or willing to quickly send me the information I needed to make a decision.  Federico was very proactive...sending me the information I requested right away, then communicating with me via email on a daily basis.

The final step was a campus tour of Federico’s Sacramento campus.  Lauren found the staff even more personable and helpful than they were on the phone.  She liked the fact that the main office was on site and everyone she needed to meet with – admissions, financial services, career services – was in the same building.

The following factors “sealed the deal” for Lauren:

1)    Federico has been in the beauty school business for over 60 years;

2)    Federico is a Pivot Point International member school;

3)    According to the Federico’s catalog, the school’s Educational Goal is “designated to assist the student’s capability to pass the Bureau of Barbering and Cosmetology licensing examination.”

4)    An externship program that places students in Sacramento-area beauty salons;

one day a week, in place of going to class, students can observe the work of experienced beauty professionals.

A Bright Future

Lauren graduated from Federico’s Cosmetology program on Monday, December 22nd, 2008.

She will now put the finishing touches on her resume with Federico’s Student Services support.  She would like to find a salon in the Stockton CA area – about an hour from Sacramento – to be closer to some family and friends.

 

Federico has long standing relationships with Sacramento-area salons who hire many Federico graduates, but Jennifer Hancock, Federico’s Student Services Coordinator, is very eager to help Lauren find a job in Stockton.  On Lauren’s behalf, Jennifer will send Lauren’s resume and information about Federico Beauty Institute, to two salons that Lauren has identified in Stockton.

 

Lauren is confident she will find a great job.  “Federico is very well known and admired in northern California.  It’s great to have Federico training on my resume.”

 

Scheduled to take the State Boards on January 16th, is there anyone out there that doubts Lauren will pass her licensure exams, start her beauty career and go on to future success as a beauty professional?
