Choosing the right cuticle scissors

In the following blog article we would like to address the following questions in more detail:

Which cuticle scissors are the best? What should you consider when choosing cuticle scissors?

 

What is the difference between cuticle scissors and cuticle nippers?

Both cuticle scissors and cuticle nippers can be used to remove cuticles. Cuticle nippers are often used by professionals like beauticians or pedicurists, as the application is somewhat more complicated and time-consuming. Nail scissors are often relatively easy to use for everyone.

What is the difference between cuticle scissors and nail scissors?

Cuticle scissors often have a finer and narrower tip (cutting edge) than nail scissors.

Why shouldn't cuticle scissors be used as nail scissors?

Cuticle scissors have a very fine blade, which has been specially sharpened to remove fine skin remnants. If you try to cut nails with them, these blades will become blunt over time, making it more difficult to cut skin remnants.

Cuticle scissors

Cuticle scissors are delicate tools for removing cuticles. They are increasingly used in manicures and occasionally in pedicures.

Typical standard models are cuticle scissors with a pointed, short blade. The blade is slightly curved to prevent injury when cutting cuticles with the sharp tip.

Depending on the handle shape, people prefer handles that are close together, which allow for more precision and finer work, or cutting blades that are slightly further apart and have larger handle eyes.

Super fine cuticle scissors for professionals

These superfine cuticle scissors are especially suitable for professionals working as beauticians or in medical foot care. These scissors feature a very pointed cutting edge, often referred to as a turret point or super-pointed. They allow for very fine and precise cutting of even very small pieces of skin, which might be overlooked with standard models.

Do you need to work extremely precisely?

If you want extreme control over cutting your cuticles, there are special cuticle scissors, such as the feather cuticle scissors.
