Selecting 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 look for when choosing cuticle scissors?
What is the difference between cuticle scissors and cuticle nippers?
Cuticle scissors and cuticle nippers can both be used to remove cuticles. Cuticle nippers are often used by professionals such as beauticians or pedicurists, as their application is somewhat more complicated and time-consuming. Cuticle scissors are generally relatively easy for everyone to use.
How does cuticle scissors differ from nail scissors?
Cuticle scissors often have a finer and narrower tip (cutting edge) than nail scissors.
Why can't cuticle scissors be used as nail scissors?
Cuticle scissors have a very fine cutting edge, which has been specially sharpened to remove fine skin remnants. If you try to cut nails with them, these cutting edges will become dull over time, making it more difficult to cut skin remnants.

Cuticle scissors
Cuticle scissors are fine tools used to remove cuticles. They are primarily used in manicures and occasionally in pedicures.
Typical standard models are cuticle scissors with pointed (item no. 9015) and short cutting edges (item no. 9001). The cutting edge is slightly curved to prevent injury when cutting the cuticles, with a sharp point.
Super fine cuticle scissors for professionals
These ultra-fine cuticle scissors are especially suitable for professionals working in fields such as beauticianship or medical foot care. These scissors have a very pointed blade, often also called a tower point or super-point. They allow for very fine and precise cutting of even very small pieces of skin, a feature that might be overlooked with standard models.
