After going through thousands of cuticle nipper reviews, we found that users mainly focus on these three points before getting a cuticle nipper:

• Sharpened blades: It is best to have blades, which are neither too sharp as they can reap the skin, nor too blunt as they can leave the nail bed bleeding. The cuticles should be softened in warm water for 5 to 10 minutes before using the equipment. If the nippers are not pulling the skin or not making a clean cut, it is time to sharpen or replace the equipment.

• Springs: The double spring in a cuticle nipper provides a frictionless smooth cut, while the single spring uses friction for pressing against the opposite handle. The configuration of the spring is extremely important, as it controls the main handle tension.

• Cutter shape: You should always choose a tip cutter with your preferred shape. You can choose between a straight or round nippers. 

• Check for ease of use: If you have long hands, it is best to opt for a cuticle nipper with long handles--a good nipper should feel just like the extension of your hand. The nipper should fit perfectly between the palm and the fingers so that the user can have a good grip.

• Consider the jaw-size: When you search the market for good nippers, you will notice that they come in different jaw sizes: ½ (half), ¼ (quarter), 1/8 (eighth) and full size. Experienced technicians work faster with full jaw-sized nippers; a beginner can opt for a smaller jaw size, as it offers more control.

• Think about the cost: It is better not to opt for an inexpensive cuticle nipper. The more expensive it is, the better it will work. You should always disinfect the nipper after each use, to avoid the risk of infection.

• Check the material: A stainless steel cuticle nipper is the best option, as it can resist corrosion and remain rust-free. 

Blue Orchids: Made with durable stainless-steel, the sharp blades of Blue Orchids cuticle nippers are of surgical quality. That ensures cutting of even the tiniest cuticles with every snip. The ¼ jaw size and the long handles make it safe and easy to use. Paired with a professional cuticle cutter, these nippers is perfect for everyone who wants to get the feel of a professional salon.
