Alaska Hairdresser and Barber Certification Practice Exam

A damaged nail can be repaired by using a nail wrap. Nail wraps are thin sheets made of silk, linen, or fibreglass that are applied to the nail to strengthen and repair any damaged areas. They provide a temporary solution for cracked or split nails and can also help in extending the length of a broken nail. Applying extra polish (option B) may camouflage the damaged nail, but it does not address the underlying issue and can actually make the nail more brittle. Cutting the nail short (option C) may help prevent further damage, but it does not fix the existing damage. Soaking in water (option D) can actually weaken the nail and make it more susceptible to damage.
