Removing dirt from fixtures mechanically is the simplest stage of processing.After it is completed, it is necessary to prepare the devices for further exposure.To do this, certain conditions must be met - remove parts from the tools that cannot be heated or exposed to chemicals, unscrew the collapsible parts.Instruments must be completely dry (allow time to dry after disinfection).
Prepared devices are placed in a sterilizer (you can use kraft bags for sterilization).Different units can be used as equipment for sterilization (they differ in characteristics, sizes, power, operating time and other features).Most often used in salons:
autoclave;
quartz sterilizer;
dry oven.

How to disinfect manicure tools at home
At home, using ovens or autoclaves is not entirely advisable.Especially if you do a manicure occasionally and only for yourself.In this case, to disinfect the instruments, you can use a container of a suitable size and special products that are easy to buy at any manicure and pedicure store.
If the instrument is used individually, it is enough after each nail treatment procedure to thoroughly clean it from mechanical contamination (you can also rinse it with water and soapy water), then immerse the instruments in a disinfectant (for the exposure time, see the instructions for the preparation).Store sterile instruments in a tightly closed container.Do not forget about disinfecting your hands and the workplace - you can wipe the table and objects on it with the same solution that is used to treat instruments.
