Which nail scissors are the best, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of nail scissors?

In nail care, the right tool decides the result. Discover our wide selection of high-quality nail scissors in different shapes, including pointed, extra pointed, tower-pointed and curved.

We also offer a practical combination scissors that covers several tasks at once. Find out which model suits your requirements best. Curved nail scissors are popular because they follow the natural shape of the nail. Pointed and tower-pointed scissors are made for thin nails and nail corners.

Advantages of nail scissors:

• often much lighter in the hand than nail nippers
• high-quality materials ensure a long service life
• low risk of injury compared with other tools
• easy to clean and to keep hygienic
• suitable for fingernails and toenails

Disadvantages:

• not suitable for thick toenails or thumbnails (use a proper nail nipper for those)
• often several cuts until the result is perfect (if sharp edges remain, smooth them easily with a nail file )

Why are nail scissors curved?

The curved blade is easy to explain: it follows the natural, rounded shape of the nails. With curved nail scissors you can usually do without a file, because you cut along the nail contour and no unpleasant edges are left behind. We offer both curved and straight blade shapes for nail scissors.

Are nail scissors allowed in hand luggage?

Nail scissors and nail clippers may be taken along. The rule is that blades up to a maximum length of 6 cm are permitted. With nail files it is therefore worth measuring, or simply packing the file in your check-in luggage. In our range all blades are under 6 cm, so you need not worry about your daily manicure & pedicure while travelling.

Which types of nail scissors are there?

The extra pointed shape - for fine work

When it comes to delicate detail work, the extra pointed scissors are the first choice. Their extremely fine tip lets you shape even demanding nail contours precisely. Ideal for trimming nail edges and for cutting nail art designs.

With the extra pointed scissors you reach a high level of accuracy and creative freedom. Their fine, tapered blade lets you reach even the smallest corners and edges with ease. Thanks to this precision, the pointed scissors are also excellent for trimming cuticles and for removing annoying flaps of skin.

If nail scissors are not enough for your purpose, because you mainly work on ingrown or thick toenails or thumbnails, then choose a professional concave nipper or a nail nipper with double lever. In the long run, nail nippers are often more robust and more durable.

What alternatives to nail scissors are there? Nail scissors vs. nail clippers

Alternatives to nail scissors are nail nippers or nail clippers. Nail nippers are particularly suited to thicker, larger nails that need a lot of force to cut. Nail clippers are practical tools for cutting fingernails and toenails quickly. With clippers, however, you have to finish with a nail file, because unlike nail scissors they cannot cut exactly along the nail.

Nail scissors for babies, seniors and left-handers

For babies there are nail scissors with a rounded tip (baby nail scissors); the tip is rounded off, so there are no sharp points that could cause injury.

For seniors we mainly recommend toenail scissors with long handles or our wide model of the toenail scissors. A long handle makes it easier to reach the toenails and increases the leverage, so that thicker nails can be cut with less force.

For left-handers there are nail scissors whose blades are forged the other way round.
