These ergonomically designed cuticle nippers are unique to KIEHL. They are made from homogenized Cobalt and Steel to produce tools of outstanding quality and performance. Due to a special hardening procedure, they have a very long lifetime.
The blades are sharpened by hand using over 90 working steps which brings them to a maximum of sharpness and precision. Because the jaws meet accurately and evenly, the nipper cuts the cuticles very precisely and cleanly.
KIEHL proudly guarantees these cuticle nippers will cut cleanly and remain sharp for 5 years. (Naturally, if they are misused or dropped, the guarantee is voided.)
Available in different jaw lengths (2mm, 3mm, 5mm, 8mm), KIEHL nippers have a size that works for you.
Cuticle Nippers Sterilization
- Before placing the nippers in an autoclave, please clean them in water using a soft brush to remove any foreign substances and particles. Spray or bathe the nippers in a disinfectant and rinse with water.
- Place the nippers into the autoclave ensuring that they do not touch other instruments which may affect the blade’s sharpness. As a safety precaution, always ensure that nippers are not stored with other tools or nippers which may have contact with the sharp blades.
- The autoclave process will diminish the oil lubricant that was placed into the nipper joint during manufacture. Naturally, some re-oiling will be required after many sessions in an autoclave. Please do not use oils that contain any (artificial or natural) resins. KIEHL has an oil specifically for lubricating these beautiful tools. If you use an autoclave, replenishing the lubricant is a must.
- During the autoclave procedure, please ensure that inferior metal instruments are not included as the KIEHL nippers may be damaged as oxidating particles from the lesser quality instrument will settle down electro-chemically on KIEHL’s higher class steel.
Cuticle Nippers Care and Storage
- The KIEHL nippers are of extraordinary quality. If dropped, the point may be damaged and the nippers may become misaligned, depending on the height they drop from.
- NEVER cut anything else except cuticles. The blade will be damaged permanently if the nippers are used incorrectly. Knowing that other people may not understand the exceptionally high quality of the KIEHL nipper, it is highly recommended that your clippers should NEVER be used by another person. Do not leave them lying about and do not loan them to anyone else.
- Wipe the nippers with a soft cloth, disinfect them and place them in a case or wrap them and place them away from other instruments. Protect the blade at all times. There is a case specially made for cuticle nipper storage and it is recommended that you use these always.
- Treat these nippers as your “personal” professional tools and they will provide you with long term satisfaction.
