Using a tool like Cuticle Nippers makes trimming the cuticles on the fingernails and toenails easier. Forging makes the steel stronger and will hold their sharpness longer. Many Cuticle nippers are stainless steel. Stainless steel nippers are good for use in the professional setting as they are less likely to rust. But if you keep your nippers in your bathroom we recommend the stainless.

More about Cuticle Nippers

The two-pronged handle of the nipper fits nicely into the palm of the hand. The metal jaw with sharp edges grasps and cuts away the excessive skin around the cuticle. The jaw is usually one inch (about 2.5 cm) deep or less.

The blades on a cuticle nipper come in three sizes: quarter, half, and full jaw. Folks with small hands or that are novice manicurists may want to start off with the smallest, quarter jaw, cuticle nipper. Although, the choice of jaw size is a personal preference.

To sterilize your stainless nippers, gently scrub them with a soft brush under running water. Remove all visible debris and residue. Disinfect them by immersing them in a 70-90% isopropyl or ethyl alcohol for 5 minutes. Remove the item and rinse thoroughly in running water.
