Word of the Day

Hyponychium

The skin that lies underneath the free edge of the nail. Ever turn off the light switch and pull your nail backwards? Makes you act REALLY HYPER for a bit doesn't it? Well that's because you just pulled the nail away from your pyponychium. We need to be really careful while cleaning under a clients free edge to ensure we don't press too hard and go into this sensitive area. It isn't supposed to hurt to get a manicure.
