@@ilikepho. We use Milady Nail Technology with Foundations. You can order both books on Amazon.com together. Some cosmetology schools are willing to prep individuals for testing. You can also look up test prep material online PSI Testing website. Make sure to look for Michigan's exam.

@joellezebarah9597 thank you. I have been looking, but I am stuck 😪

You can do it’s virtual so you don’t have to be in person

@TheMoGiselle This video was created mainly for my students and other instructors who already have an idea of how to take the exam. There are no exact steps in the procedures. Instructors, apprenticeships, and schools can choose to train differently. The most important thing I wanted to convey in this video was the importance of sanitation, disinfection, and safety in the workplace. I really should make a new video because you weren't the only person who would like to see a table view. If you send me your email, I can send you my procedures and steps handouts 😉

@@joellezebarah9597 can I get the steps and procedure also plz

Absolutely

@@joellezebarah9597 so I brought wipes instead of spray/paper towel roll. Ran into a glitch because the testing room has NO paper towels! So after washing my hands each time, I had no way to dry them! SMH!

All five fingers have a thin coat of acrylic. The tip and Sculptured nail fingers are just short (fingertip length). We glue the tip to the thin acrylic nail. We just add more acrylic to the Sculptured nail.

Any hospital grade Disinfectant is ok. Barbicide is just the most common in our industry.

You may set up however you want. Just make sure to follow laws and rules for sanitation and disinfection.

Hey just took mine, how long was it before you got results?

The first time i took it i failed and found out immediately. The second time i passed and it took about 2hrs to get my results!! Good luck! 🤍

I'm working on an updated version. I will definitely get an overview on the next one.

will you have this completed soon? Taking my test in 1 month. @@joellezebarah9597

Yes. It is supposed to be pre prepped with a foundation. We use acrylic to mimic short natural looking nails. Mechanical hands with interchangeable fingertips are not allowed.

Milady Nail Technology & Fundamentals 8th Edition

Any inexpensive product will be fine. Just make sure to practice with it so you have good control of your product. We use "All Season's," an off brand from Marianna.

@sidneyhagan799 They said, duaring 5 business days you will get the email. Check spam. I got my result in 2 hours this Monday. My exam was at 2 pm.

@@luyulacongratulations on passing 🥳🥳 I go tomorrow to GR to take my test! Is there anything you did different? Did you bring a wet sanitizer jar? Any tips are helpful!! TIA ❤❤

@@joellezebarah9597 yes this helps tremendously thank you 🙏🏽☺️☺️😍

@@joellezebarah9597 also would you have a link where I can find the sds sheets I need 😩.. my school was horrible 🥴

Awesome! Thank you! @@joellezebarah9597

How long did I take to get your results?

@@CourtneTatzVideos I received mines the same day.

I PASSED!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

You can take a practice test for around $25 on PSI Testing website. Look for Michigan Theory Practice Test. It will give you an idea of how the questions are asked on the exam. Good luck!

All products must have the original labels. I still haven't been able to get the test guide. The one you have should be fine. Good luck.

No

I'm looking into it. I was not able to find it either. I will let you know when I do.

If you google "psi michigan manicure test guide," it should pop up. The header says "cosmetolog," but it should say manicure underneath. Good luck

Yes. We only use the same two towels for the entire exam.

I am so nervous. I am taking in two weeks at Southfield. Any pointers?

Hey what change cause I am taking my test this week are we still doing red nail polish ?

We use gift bags or paper bags, labeled and lined with a plastic bag.

@@joellezebarah9597 do you tape them to the table or put them on the side/under your desk?

Everything chemical that you use during testing, has a Safety Data Sheet (SDS), usually online or you may have to call the manufacturer to have it emailed. My students have never been asked for them, and PSI representative said it wasn't necessary.

@@joellezebarah9597 Thank you! And one more thing please,I want to know the websid for barbicide?

@orjenasulo search "Barbicide." Go to www.barbicide.com and search "Spray." There will be a label to print and SDS sheets.

@@joellezebarah9597 Thank you very much!

State Board doesn't indicate how many fingers to manicure, and there are no incorrect steps. This is just how I train my students. It doesn't necessarily have to be done this way.

How did you label/bring the barbicide? I am worried that if I put it in something that it’s not labeled it’ll be wrong. What did you use for barbicide?

@@SarahCounterman I didn't bring a barbicide jar nor did i bring barbicide. Instead, I brought a disinfect wipes tub from the dollar store. I also used very few reusable implements. As for labeling, I labeled EVERYTHING in a ziplock bag.

What do you mean by disinfectant wipes tub? 🤔

@@SarahCounterman like the lysol wipes container

Do you know why you didn’t pass in Southfield? I’m scheduled to test there in two weeks and was going to do the same as this video.

Which location?

I can't say if it has gotten any better. I haven't had a student test there in a while. The main thing to remember is that you must abide by all state laws and rules to maintain safety and sanitation.

How was your theory exam? Was it super hard ?

@@lilyalcorn5087i heard the theory test was really easy, i had a friend who didn’t study a bit and had been graduated for months and passed! (NOT recommending that you don’t study, studying is very important and only allows you to remember more!!)

Ok I thought I did things right but the two women keep failing me

😩 that was the only testing site available for me gr was booked 😩🤦🏻‍♀️ I hope I pass

@@lilyalcorn5087Nope! 80 questions. It’s a guide that tells you what % of the test is what.

PSI Michigan Manicurist Test Takers Guide

We don't use a finger bath, but we do use a barbicide jar.

The only item that has to be sealed is your odorless monomer liquid. You can absolutely put your own kit together.

I'm sorry I missed your message! I hope you did ok if you already tested.

I'm very sorry that I missed your question!

No, a lid isn't necessary. Just make sure to remove all tools from the jar during clean-up at the end of each service.

@@joellezebarah9597Do you NEED a jar?

@katez5742 no, we just train our students to use them.

I'm sorry I don't have a list of supplies. The State doesn't recognize one specific way to do a service, so the supplies are not as important as sanitation and disinfection.

We order an off brand from Marianna, but Tammy Taylor has a nice odorless system if you would like to order from her website.

You don't have to do the steps in the exact order we do, it is just how we train our students. If washing your hands first works better for you, then you can do that. My students put out trash bins first so that they do not touch bins with clean hands.

I followed the exact steps and failed by 1 point. I’m sick. I’m going to have to go Grand Rapids. The beginning and ending is where I keep scoring the lowest.

@NM-iv7wv So sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, they don't tell you why you lose points. I know that both locations are not consistently testing the same way.

@@joellezebarah9597 have any students done zoom?

You don't have to wear gloves at all. We just choose to wear them.

If you choose to wear them, then definitely change them with each service. You must change them with every client, and that's what you are showing them at state board. You are basically showing them that you wouldn't wear one pair of gloves with multiple clients/services.

I failed mine by 1 point last time too!

@user-hg8pi2nf8h I passed doing it without the water bowl, polishing, sanitizing the entire station in between, new towel every time, doing set up then sanitizing mine and the doll hand then re sanitizing both at the start of the task and putting on gloves for the service. I also did the zoom option for the practical and online for the written

@@virgil9862 thank you! I’m retaking it on Monday at Grand Rapids location! Wish me luck!

​@@user-hg8pi2nf8hhey, just wondering how'd it go? Did you pass? I took mine at southfield and failed by 2 points, so i rescheduled at grand rapids for next months since they had no more openings this month.
