Using cuticle nail clippers involves pushing back the cuticle, scraping off excess skin, and then carefully trimming any loose or hanging skin.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Push Back the Cuticle: Use a cuticle pusher to gently push back the cuticle from the nail plate.
-
Scrape Off Excess Skin: Use the other side of the cuticle pusher to scrape off any dead skin cells or excess skin that is attached to the nail.
-
Dust to Reveal: Dust the area to clearly see what you are doing.
-
Carefully Trim: Using the cuticle clippers, carefully trim any loose skin, hangnails, or excess cuticle. Avoid cutting live skin, as this can lead to infection.
