How to Purchase A Toenail Clipper

Here's how to purchase the right toe-nail clipper for you, either in a store, or online.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Look at all your options. Don't settle on the first clipper you see, inspect the whole rack of clippers in the store or read reviews online.

2. Choose a slightly larger clipper if you have large toenails. In order to cut the big toenail, you'll need a wide clipper in order to prevent ingrown nails. Use a smaller clipper on your smaller toes.

3. Make sure you buy a quality brand of toenail clipper. It's hard to inspect a toenail trimmer in the store, so be sure you spend enough to buy a quality brand clipper.

4. Buy a stainless-steel trimmer with a built in file. The file is not only useful for rounding off jagged edges, it helps you lift the corners of your nails and prevent ingrown toenails from developing.
