Taking care of your hands requires a little time and some suitable tools. In this post, we will try to give you some advice for hand care, particularly regarding the most suitable tools to use.
We always recommend purchasing quality products, knowing well that, despite spending a few more, in the end, you save money. A quality tool can last much longer than any low-quality product that fails to perform its duty after a short period of use.
There are various tools for trimming nails, and unless you are one of those who prefer biting them, we would like to give you some advice to help you choose the most suitable one for your needs.
For trimming nails, you can use various tools:
Nail Clippers
The nail clipper is small and compact, easy to carry in your bag or pocket, always within reach. It is designed to easily cut both left and right hand nails. A larger of the nail clippers is suitable for cutting toenails as well.
Nail clippers provide a clean cut and leave the nails with very sharp angles that may need to be refined with a nail file, which is sometimes already incorporated into the nail clipper. Some prefer using nail scissors: they come in various types, shapes, and sizes. It is important to choose the right model with sufficiently robust blades, preferably curved to better follow the natural curve of the nails.
Nail Scissors
Nail scissors make a clean and precise cut while leaving the tips of the nails slightly rounded. Some may find it a bit challenging to trim the nails on their right hand, so manufacturers have created left-handed nail scissors: they are not only for left-handers but might be helpful also for right-handed people struggling to cut their right-hand nails.
Nail Nippers
If all of this seems a bit complicated to someone who doesn’t like using nail clippers, they can always rely on another tool: the nail nipper. It is a tool designed for professional use, with a sturdy structure and a handle that, in some models, allows for easy cutting of thick toenails. The handles and blades of the nail nipper are designed with ergonomics to facilitate nail cutting with both the left and right hand, suitable for both right-handed and left-handed individuals.
After talking about the suitable tools for hand care, we would also like to give you some other small advice related to caring for your body and look.
Hair Tweezers
Another very important tool for body care, especially for the face, is the hair tweezer. The most commonly used hair tweezers have straight or slanted tips, made from carbon or stainless steel. Stainless steel tweezers, despite their higher price offer significantly superior performance. Moreover, since they are often used in a humid environment and in contact with water, they do not rust, ensuring much longer durability.
Hair tweezers can be available in a wide range of colors or various decorations, cute and charming without compromising quality, as the structure is always made of steel. Tweezers can be used to remove not only eyebrow hairs but also other unwanted facial or body hair.
Other Body Care Tools
Many other tools are used for facial, hand, and foot care, from callus cutters to rasps, various tools for nail and cuticle care, to scissors for cutting hangnails, nose or ear hair, or specific scissors for adjusting beard and mustache. Not to forget hairdressing scissors, both for cutting and thinning, essential in every household for emergency touch-ups or regular haircuts for children and even adults, leading to significant savings in the family budget.
