The correct way to use the dead skin scissors

In life, we often hear about people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. They like to straighten or remove things that they don’t like. For example, they will peel off the dead skin on their bodies even if it causes bleeding, and they will also bite off the dead skin on their lips, which is very troublesome because they often bleed. Now there is good news for them, there is a tool called dead skin scissors. As the name implies, dead skin scissors are used to remove dead skin. So how to use dead skin scissors? You should know that each tool has its own way of use. Let me take a look at the correct way to use dead skin scissors!

1. If the angle of the cuticle scissors is too high, it may even be perpendicular to the customer’s hand. You should know that the cuticle scissors are very sharp. If you are not careful, you may poke the customer's hand, injure the customer, and even cause bleeding. ,

Cut and tear off dead skin

Some manicurists do not use the cutting technique to deal with dead skin, but instead tear and pull it. Doing so can easily hurt the customer and make the cut skin uneven, like it has been gnawed by a dog.

Correct operation method

①Spread the non-woven fabric flat and fold it, then put your thumb into it, then fold up the excess part and let the tip of your thumb press against the non-woven fabric. Spray an appropriate amount of alcohol on the non-woven fabric

②Open the palm of your left hand, pinch the guest's fingers with your thumb and index finger, and support the other hand with the remaining three fingers.

③Pinch the customer's fingers tightly and cut along the direction of the cuticle scissors' blade. Be careful not to cut in pieces, try to cut in a straight line.

④ Stop when you have cut halfway to the back edge of your fingertips. Switch to the other side and cut towards the middle in the same way.

⑤After cutting, get rid of some small pieces of dead skin. You can use alcohol on non-woven fabric to gently wipe the nail surface.

⑥Completed.

2. Many people think that cuticle scissors are made of stainless steel, but this is actually a misunderstanding. in the country, especially in Yangjiang area, most manufacturers use stainless steel as raw material for production. However, Yijian, a well-known nail scissors brand originating from Vietnam, is not made of pure stainless steel, because the blade of pure stainless steel products is not very sharp and easily becomes dull. The sharpness of the blade determines the quality and grade of a pair of cuticle scissors. After all, as a cuticle scissors, its function is to cut, not to look good.

Taking Yijian as an example, all of its steel is made of special alloy and is hand-forged and sharpened. The composition of this special alloy is kept secret. The Vietnamese manufacturer calls it stainless iron, and all the raw materials are imported from Japan. This is also the main reason why a small country like Vietnam can produce dead skin scissors with more advanced technology than our domestic products. The use of manual forging and reliance on imported materials also limits the production of Yijian.

3. If you want to remove dead skin, use disinfectant to sterilize and clean the scissors blades. Ordinary ones should not exceed 10 minutes, and high-end ones should not exceed 30 minutes.

After each use, use disinfectant to remove the dandruff and dust on the cuticle scissors, then wipe them dry with a dry towel and place them in a dry and ventilated place.

During normal use, if you find dead skin or other foreign matter attached to the blade of the cuticle scissors, please do not blow it off with your mouth, because the air exhaled from the mouth contains a lot of water vapor, which can easily cause the blade to get damp. The correct way is to use a dry towel or a cleaning broom to remove foreign matter.

When the cuticle scissors are not in use, please put on the knife cover and place it in a special tool bag to prevent the blade from being damaged due to collision or accidentally falling to the ground.

During daily use, try not to come into contact with highly corrosive liquids such as nail polish remover and crystal liquid.

If you do not use the cuticle scissors for a long time, you should first apply some anti-rust oil to the blade to avoid oxidation. If you don't have anti-rust oil, you can use sewing machine oil instead.

Please do not use the scissors in the air when debugging them. Many people are accustomed to moving the scissors in their hands a few times when trying them out. The blades of high-quality cuticle scissors are very tight after leaving the factory. Useless cutting can easily cause the upper and lower blades to rub against each other and damage the sharpness of the blade.

4. Since the cuticle scissors are made of soft material and are easily deformed, be careful to avoid letting the head touch the bottom of the sterilization cup.

(3) Hand disinfection for guests

Finally, the customer's hands must be disinfected! Just like the manicurist's hand disinfection, the back of the hand, the palm, and the fingers are also disinfected.

As for touching nail tools and customers' hands, manicurists must disinfect their own hands first!

Place an appropriate amount of cotton pad on the bottom of the disinfection cup and pour in a small amount of 75% alcohol. The head of the tool must be embedded in the cotton to be thoroughly disinfected. Here you need to pay close attention to protecting the cuticle scissors! Since the cuticle scissors are made of a relatively soft material and are easily deformed, be careful to avoid letting the head touch the bottom of the sterilization cup. Finally, the customer's hands must be disinfected! Just like the manicurist's hand disinfection, it also includes the back of the hand, the palm, the fingers, and the nails!
