How far should ultraviolet rays be applied from the skin for safety?

15 inches to 20 inches
25 inches to 30 inches
30 inches to 36 inches
36 inches to 40 inches

The correct answer is: 30 inches to 36 inches

For safety when applying ultraviolet (UV) rays, the recommended distance is typically 30 inches to 36 inches from the skin. This distance helps minimize the risk of skin damage while still allowing the effective penetration of UV rays for treatments such as enhancing tanning or treating certain skin conditions. Maintaining this distance is essential because UV rays can cause harm if the skin becomes too close to the source, leading to burns or increased risk of skin cancer. By adhering to the 30 to 36-inch guideline, professionals can ensure that clients receive the benefits of UV treatments while prioritizing their safety. Understanding the correct distance is crucial for barbers and beauty professionals who incorporate UV treatments into their practice, as it reflects both adherence to industry standards and care for client well-being.
