You will hear conflicting advice about the (best) way to cut your nails. Some experts recommend cutting the nail straight and then slightly round the corners. Others suggest that you mimic the curve of your cuticle pusher. You want to be careful with toenails: if you cut too much in the corners, you run the risk of ingrown toenails.
It is also important to disinfect your nail clipper before use. We recommend brushing your trimmer with a small scrub brush soaked in isopropyl alcohol.
