What area of the body are nail techs permitted to work on?

Nail technicians are trained and licensed to work on specific areas of the body where nail care is relevant. The correct answer encompasses the areas from the elbow to the fingertips as well as from below the knees to the toes. This means that nail techs can perform services on both the hands and feet, enabling them to provide a full range of manicures and pedicures.

By being permitted to work from the elbows to the fingertips, nail technicians can address the nails and surrounding skin on the hands, including nail shaping, polish application, and nail enhancements. Additionally, the ability to work from below the knees to the toes allows them to provide similar services for the feet, including foot massage, exfoliation, and nail care.

Other options are more limited in scope, either restricting the areas that nail techs can treat or failing to encompass the full range of services offered in the nail care industry. This broader permission reflects the overall training that nail technicians receive in both hand and foot care, ensuring they can cater to clients’ needs for complete nail services.
