How to use

Sanitize hands and the nippers before use. Gently push back the cuticle with a suitable pusher or after soaking the nails to soften the tissue. Use the compact 4 mm tip to carefully trim only the excess cuticle and hangnails, making small controlled cuts toward the desired shape. Avoid cutting living skin; if resistance is felt, stop and reassess. After trimming, clean and disinfect the tool and store it in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

Regular sharpening and professional disinfection maintain cutting performance and hygiene. Use the nippers on softened cuticles for safer trimming, and avoid excessive force to preserve the cutting edge and prevent damage to the nail fold.
