## Which Nail Scissors Should You Choose?
We have both standard nail scissors and clippers suitable for everyone. Additionally, we carry several specialty products that are particularly well-suited for seniors and individuals with functional impairments, such as reduced hand strength or difficulty bending. Below, you can learn more about which nail scissors suit your needs.
- **Nail Clipper for Thick Nails**: It is recommended to use a nail nipper for stubborn, thick nails, as it grips these nails more effectively.
- **Nail Clipper with Collector**: This smart type of nail clipper eliminates the need for cleanup afterward, as the container collects the cut nail fragments.
- **Nail Clipper**: Many prefer to use a nail clipper over actual scissors because it is easy to use, even on toenails. A nail clipper ensures a uniform and smooth cut across the entire nail.
- **Nail Scissors**: A standard nail scissors is a staple in most bathrooms, and you can choose from different types with curved blades that follow the nail's natural curves. The advantage of nail scissors is their pointed end, allowing easier access along the sides of the nails and underneath. However, it can be a disadvantage if you have motor difficulties or shaky hands, as the sharp point may result in accidental poking.
- **Toenail Scissors with Long Handle**: Toenail scissors with a long and angled handle are ideal for those who find it challenging to cut their toenails unaided. The long handle makes it much easier to bend over, and the angle makes cutting easier without awkward hand twisting.
- **Nail File**: A nail file can either be used as an alternative to a nail clipper or, at the very least, as a supplement. Some nail technicians recommend using only a nail file, as it is very gentle on the nails. A nail file also helps smooth any sharp edges or ragged nails.
