Why everyone needs clippers and a nail file
If you have ever had a hangnail that stings and drives you crazy, then this post is for you. Nail care is important because it prevents those pesky hangnails, and it keeps your nails looking clean and even.
Take a five-minute break from whatever you are doing, and read my words of wisdom. Your nails will thank me later.
Clip your nails
If you let your nails get too long, you might accidentally stab someone. That is a little over dramatic, but I think you get the picture. Long nails are bad. Short nails are good. Make sure your nails are all one length because you will look funny with one dagger nail hanging from your hand.
File your nails
Most people tend to skip this key step. Filing your nails gives you control over your nail shape and keeps the edges of your nails smooth. You will not snag your uneven nails on your new silk blouse if you take a second or two to file the rough edges.
Secret uses for clippers and nail files
If you are still unconvinced that clipping and filing your nails is for you, then pay close attention. Clippers are a handy tool for getting rid of those irritating strings you find hanging off of your clothing in weird places like the bottom of your sleeve. Just use your clippers to snip that annoying thread and you are good to go. As for nail files, I have won a handful of sword fights in my day with my trusty nail file. Though it may be but little, it is fierce.
Now that you know why clippers and nail files are an important part of nail care, I hope you spend the next five minutes getting rid of your hangnails. After all, you have to get your nails ready for battle. I know you want to try out the sword fighting.
