A liquid that has been chemically softened and contains very small amount of minerals
Explanation
Soft water refers to a liquid that has been chemically treated to remove minerals, resulting in a low mineral content. This process of chemical softening typically involves the use of ion exchange or reverse osmosis to remove calcium and magnesium ions, which are responsible for water hardness. Soft water is desirable for various purposes, such as preventing mineral buildup in pipes and appliances, improving soap lathering and cleaning efficiency, and reducing the risk of scale formation.Rate this question:

Also known as the matrix bed:
Explanation
The correct answer is "the nail matrix." The term "matrix" refers to the base or root of something, and in this case, it is the base of the nail. It is responsible for the production of new nail cells, which then grow and form the nail plate. The nail matrix is located at the base of the nail bed, beneath the cuticle.Rate this question:

Friziiness is an indication of
Explanation
Frizziness in this context refers to the condition of hair that is dry, brittle, and prone to breakage. Over processing of the hair, such as excessive use of heat styling tools, chemical treatments, or harsh hair products, can lead to frizziness. These processes strip the hair of its natural moisture and damage the hair cuticles, causing the hair to become frizzy. Therefore, frizziness is an indication of over processing.Rate this question:

Healthy skin should be;
Explanation
Healthy skin should be slightly moist because moisture helps to maintain the skin's natural barrier function and prevent it from becoming dry and prone to irritation. Moisture also helps to keep the skin hydrated, supple, and soft. However, excessive moisture can lead to a damp environment that promotes the growth of bacteria and fungi, so it is important for the skin to be only slightly moist, not overly wet.Rate this question:

Limp or weak wave formation is a sign of:
Explanation
Limp or weak wave formation is a sign of underprocessing. This means that the waves are not being adequately processed or developed, resulting in a weak or ineffective formation. This could be due to various factors such as insufficient energy or power, improper technique, or a malfunctioning equipment. It is important to identify and address the cause of underprocessing in order to achieve the desired wave formation.Rate this question:

Most of the processing of a permanent wave takes place within:
- A.
5 to 10 min
- B.
10-20min
- C.
2-7min
- D.
The first 5 to 20min
- E.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. 5 to 10 minExplanation
The correct answer is 5 to 10 min. This is because during a permanent wave, the processing time refers to the amount of time the chemicals are left on the hair to break and reform the hair bonds. Typically, this process takes about 5 to 10 minutes to achieve the desired curl or wave pattern.Rate this question:

Most prewraps are
Correct Answer
leave in conditionersExplanation
The given answer "leave in conditioners" is a possible explanation for the statement "Most prewraps are leave in conditioners". This implies that a majority of prewraps, which are typically used before styling hair, are designed to be left in the hair rather than rinsed out like regular conditioners. This suggests that prewraps serve the purpose of conditioning the hair while also providing additional benefits such as detangling or heat protection.Rate this question:

Second highest level of decontamination
Correct Answer
disinfection
disinfectant
disinfectExplanation
The correct answer is disinfection, disinfectant, disinfect. These terms are all related to the process of eliminating or reducing the presence of harmful microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Disinfection refers to the overall process of killing or inactivating these microorganisms, while a disinfectant is a substance or agent used to achieve this. Disinfect, on the other hand, is the action of applying the disinfectant to a surface or object. Therefore, all three terms are interconnected and describe different aspects of the decontamination process.Rate this question:

squovalExplanation
A square with rounded corners is commonly referred to as a squoval shape. In the context of nails, a squoval nail refers to a nail shape that combines the straight edges of a square nail with the soft curves of an oval nail. This shape is popular as it offers the best of both worlds, providing the strength and durability of a square nail while also maintaining a more natural and softer appearance.Rate this question:

The finger test is used to determine the hair's:
Correct Answer
degree of porosityExplanation
The finger test is used to determine the hair's degree of porosity. Porosity refers to the hair's ability to absorb and retain moisture. By running your fingers along a strand of hair, you can feel its texture and determine how easily it absorbs water. If the hair feels rough and coarse, it is likely to have high porosity, meaning it absorbs moisture quickly. If the hair feels smooth and silky, it is likely to have low porosity, meaning it has a harder time absorbing moisture. The finger test helps in understanding the hair's porosity level and can guide in choosing the right products and treatments for the hair.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
curl or wave
wave or curlExplanation
The size of the waving rod determines the size of the curl or wave. This means that if a larger waving rod is used, the resulting curl or wave will also be larger. Similarly, if a smaller waving rod is used, the curl or wave will be smaller. Therefore, the size of the waving rod directly affects the size of the curl or wave that is created.Rate this question:

split endsExplanation
Trichoptilosis refers to the condition commonly known as split ends. This occurs when the hair shaft splits or frays at the end, resulting in a rough and damaged appearance. Split ends are typically caused by excessive heat styling, chemical treatments, or lack of proper hair care. Regular trimming and moisturizing the hair can help prevent and manage split ends.Rate this question:

True acid waves have a pH range of:
Correct Answer
4.5 to 7.0
4.5-7.0
4.5 and 7.0Explanation
The correct answer is 4.5 to 7.0. This is because true acid waves typically have a pH range between 4.5 and 7.0. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with values below 7 considered acidic. Therefore, any pH value between 4.5 and 7.0 would fall within the acidic range and be classified as a true acid wave.Rate this question:

The Hair's strength, flexibility, elasticity and shape are fond in the:
Correct Answer
cortexExplanation
The correct answer is cortex. The cortex is the middle layer of the hair shaft and is responsible for providing strength, flexibility, elasticity, and shape to the hair. It contains keratin, which gives the hair its structural integrity. The cortex also determines the hair's color and texture.Rate this question:

Chemical Texture services create chemical changes in the hair that are:
- A.
Permanent
- B.
Occasional
- C.
Temporary
- D.
All of the above
- E.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. PermanentExplanation
Chemical texture services create chemical changes in the hair that are permanent.
These services, which include perming and relaxing, alter the chemical bonds within the hair structure, specifically the disulfide bonds, to achieve a new shape or texture. These changes remain in the hair until it is either cut off or treated again with another chemical service to alter the existing texture.Rate this question:
