Nail clipping is the process of trimming the nails to maintain their health and appearance. It is important for both hygiene and comfort, as overgrown nails can lead to discomfort or injury. Regular nail clipping helps prevent issues such as ingrown nails and infections. To clip nails, you can use tools like nail clippers or scissors. It is advisable to cut nails straight across to avoid sharp edges. For best results, nails should be clipped when they are dry, and it is recommended to do this every few weeks, depending on individual growth rates.
