Cuticles serve an important role in our hands. You need to know how to keep them safe and also maintain them. Getting a manicure often feels good but you cannot keep going back to the salon every time you need your cuticles attended to. This is because it is an ongoing process that requires regular maintenance. This nails experience will take care of your cuticles but you also need to know how to do it. The cuticles are part of the skin around the nails and they serve to protect the nail matrix.
- Do not cut your cuticles – People often think that the cuticles will keep growing such that the nails get an unsightly appearance. They then cut the cuticles. This could be painful and is also unhealthy. All the effects surrounding the cutting of cuticles are negative. Do not allow this nails attendant to cut your cuticles. Cutting could leave an infection as the space is left exposed and bacteria can enter or anything else. One can also get ridges and white spots as well as white lines which are irritating nail problems.

This is a good alternative to cutting the cuticles as the space is not left bare and infections can be prevented. People often cut them thinking that they will keep growing which is not true.

It is also important to avoid disturbing the cuticles every time. This normally results in irritation around the nails. At times it ends up being painful for you. Getting a bacterial infection because of cutting the cuticles could hamper the growth of your nail. You need to keep them safe so as to let them do their jobs and protect the nail matrix.
