Now when you use nail clippers, the edges of the blades come together at the same time. So there's only a tiny little bit of clipping that you can do at any one time. So when you're cutting your nails with nail clippers you just use the very tip of the clipper and clip clip clip clip clip all the way around. If you try and do it all in one clip, your curved nail, you'll make it straight and it just won't be comfortable. It's important to cut your toenails short to avoid black toenails.
