When there are signs of a bacterial infection, the priority is to avoid performing any nail service and guide the client to medical care. Bacterial infections require diagnosis and treatment from a physician, not in a salon setting. Even if you wore gloves or cleaned tools, you wouldn’t address the infection or prevent spread, and continuing the service could worsen the condition or expose others. Disinfecting tools more thoroughly doesn’t resolve an active infection. So, pause the service and refer the client to a doctor before any nail work can safely resume.
