The best nail clippers
We want to help you answer the following questions about nail clippers?
First, a few advantages and disadvantages of nail clippers.
Advantages of nail clippers :
- less effort required to cut nails compared to nail scissors & nail clippers
- lie comfortably in the hand when cutting
- for both fingernails and toenails
- low risk of injury due to gentle design (no dangerous spikes)
Disadvantages of nail clippers :
- often more expensive than nail scissors & nail clippers
- large selection of models & different cutting edge shapes (difficult decision-making)
- Loss of cutting ability due to misuse (cutting wires, etc.)
Despite the disadvantages, nail clippers are professional tools used by podiatrists and beauticians for cutting fingernails or toenails, especially when the nails are strong, thick or ingrown .
Which shape of nail clipper is right for me?
Nail clippers come in the following shapes and offer different advantages depending on the shape of the cutting edge. Basically, these two shapes of cutting edge can be distinguished:
curved - adapt to the natural curved shape of fingernails and toenails
straight - especially for getting into the corners of larger nails such as thumbnails or big toenails
Due to special needs, mixtures of straight and curved cutting edges were developed:
spire, super-pointed - especially for corners
super slim - precise cutting with filigree tip
stable - general work on nails
What models of nail clippers are there?
After you have an overview of the different forms of cutting, we come to types:
Basically, the different types of models influence how much force you have to use to cut the nails.
Single spring - medium force for normal thickness nails
Double spring - low effort, also suitable for thicker nails
Buffer spring - medium force required by spring
Head cutter - low effort and specially developed for corners
Nail nippers with gear ratio - very little to no effort required
developed for thick & strong nails
Are nail nippers better than nail clippers or nail scissors?
Nail pliers are much more robust and durable than nail clippers because they can withstand significantly more force.
The biggest advantage is that nail clippers are often designed for thicker and stronger nails, such as toenails or harder thumbnails. These nail tools are also frequently used by professional users such as beauticians, chiropodists, and podiatrists. Therefore, we strongly recommend nail clippers for home nail care, as less force is required and better results are achieved.
Finally, we'd like to offer a few recommendations on which nail clippers might be right for you. You should trim any pesky nail edges with nail files, such as a metal nail file or a sapphire nail file.
Conclusion :
The following 4 products are suitable for beginners as well as professionals:
Nail nippers with gear ratio - very thick hardened nails effortlessly
Corner nippers (spire-shaped or slim) - easily cut thick, overgrown and ingrown nails
Nail nippers (basic or buffer nail nippers) - universal tool suitable for daily manicure and pedicure
head cutter - very popular for corners but also low effort
