Those ‘Small Round Holes’ On Nail Clippers Actually Have an Ingenious Use, and We Had No Idea

 

 

Nearly everyone has used or seen a nail clipper. They’re invaluable for tackling hangnails, painful and peeling cuticles, and cutting through plastic wrappers on beauty products. While most people are familiar with them, few know why there’s a little hole at the end.

Although mysterious, the hole in nail clippers is just for loss prevention. A keychain can be slipped into the hole, allowing the user to attach it to their key ring. They’ll always have nail clippers on hand if a nail breaks unexpectedly. Additionally, the nail clippers won’t get lost as easily.

As previously mentioned nail clippers aren’t limited to clipping nails. Rather, nail clippers often have a file attached which can help cut the tape on packages. Meanwhile, some nail clippers have small screws, used to clean under the nails. However, they can be helpful where other tools like a screwdriver may not be available.

A nail clipper is useful for maintaining overall nail health and preventing cracking or splitting but they only scratch the surface of tools and tips for beauty and wellness. It’s important to embrace our imperfections- scars, curves, stretch marks, etc. but that doesn’t mean we can’t strive for healthy skin, hair, and nails. Several options enhance our beauty naturally, from subtle foundation coverage to plant-based products. Firstly, daily supplements can improve hair, skin, and nail health. However, you should consult your doctor and assess any skin conditions that require more specified treatments before adding anything to your daily routine.

Using the Nail Clipper without Damage

Unfortunately, a nail clipper can also cause harm to the nail. Therefore, they should be used after a shower or bath. Similarly, cuticles should be pushed back, rather than cut; only when the nail beds are wet and pliable. Furthermore, the same applies to babies, their nail beds should be soft and moist but a great time to trim is while they’re deeply asleep, so consider bath time before bed when their nails need a trim.
