How To Use Nail Clippers

When it comes to nail care, nail clippers are an essential beauty tool. Not only do they keep your nails neat and tidy, but using nail clippers correctly can also help prevent nail damage.

We’ve got a great selection of nail clippers and scissors to help you trim and shape your nails to perfection. So let’s get started with our guide on using nail clippers correctly for the best results.

Clean Nail Clippers are Essential

The first tip is always to make sure you have clean nail clippers. Clean tools will reduce your chances of infection or spreading bacteria around. Be sure to disinfect your nail clippers after each use with rubbing alcohol, and be extra mindful if multiple people are using the nail clippers.

Choose the Right Nail Clipper

The next step is to select the right nail clipper for your nails. A nail clipper with a curved blade will be most effective if you have thick, hard nails.

For regular nail types and artwork, pointed nail clippers are great for precision cutting. Choosing the best clippers makes the job easier and saves time and money in the long run.

Trim Your Nails in One Direction

Trim your nails in one direction to avoid nail splitting or tearing. It’s vital to clip your nails in one direction – never use a sawing motion, as this can damage your nails. Take off small amounts of the nail until you reach the desired length, remembering to always round off the edges of each nail after cutting.

File and Shape Your Nails

To get your nails looking their best:

  1. Use nail files to shape them into the desired form.
  2. Start using a coarser nail file to shorten long nail edges, then switch to a finer nail file for smoothness.
  3. If you’re going for a rounded nail shape, make sure you don’t cut or file too close to the nail bed or sides, as this can cause damage.

Finish with Moisturiser

After filing and clipping, it’s time to finish your nail care routine with some moisturising. Use a nourishing hand cream or nail oil to keep your hands and nails hydrated, protecting them from splitting or breaking.

If you can, keep your hands away from hot water and washing up liquid or hash detergent, and if you have to do chores, always use rubber or protective gloves. It would help if you also protect your hands from the elements with outdoor gloves; this way, your hands and nails will look lovely for longer.
