    When I say manicure, I mean, a quick proper treatment of your nails that keeps your hands healthy and makes you look well-groomed and dapper so it fits the rest of your outfit.
    Tools you need:
    The basic set includes a nail clipper, a cuticle clipper, and a nail file.
    Basic Grooming Routine: Manicure with these 3 tools:
    1. Using the nail clipper, clip slowly and in small steps, along your nail bed so a little edge of white remains.
    2. Use the cuticle clipper to get rid any hangnails which are little pieces of skin or nail that stand-off in a weird way
    3. Use the file. First, use the rougher side and you hold it perpendicular to your nail. Filing off all the rough edges.
    4. Use the tip of your file and remove any dirt that you may have underneath your nails.
    If you want to step up, you can get a longer nail file and a buffing block as well as a cuticle tool or a cuticle pusher that helps you keep your cuticles intact and just create a very nice look on your nails.
    1. Clip your nails, be slow, use three to four steps and make sure you stay along the natural curve of your nail and leave some white.
    An optional step here is to soak your fingers in water beforehand. It makes your nails softer and makes the clipping much easier.
    2. Use the cuticle pusher and push back your cuticles gently. Once you've done that, use the opposite pointy end of your cuticle pusher and remove the dry skin or the dirt around your cuticles.
    3. Use the cuticle clippers and clip off any hangnails.
    4. Use the file. Usually, you have a rougher side and a finer side. However, I suggest you start with a finer for your fingernails and the rougher one for your toenails.
    The advantage of having a long file versus a small file is that you have a better angle, you're quicker and you can just get to that cracks better.
    5. Use a buffing block which is a very fine sand grip. It's fantastic to smoothen out the edges of your nails without hurting them and without creating any deep grooves.
    6. Use the pointed end of the cuticle tool and remove any dirt that remains underneath your nails or around the skin so you have a well-groomed nail by then.
    Personally, at the very end, I like to give my nails a little bit of oil and I use nice quality hand cream.
    Common Ailments:
    1. Biting your nails. Not only that it looks very immature but you also get rough edges and your nails become shorter over time.
    2. Cracked cuticles that are dry.
    3. Discolored nails either from smoking a lot they get that yellow tint.
    4. Lifting of nails, splitting, or excessive grooving.
    Most importantly, every man can have well-groomed, strong nails and fingers and all you need is a few simple tools. Just a quick routine, it takes about 10 minutes.

      My friend. I bit my nails for 45 years. I then took 10k units of Biotin every day. Never bit them again. It made my nails so strong that it made me stop. Tell anyone you know that bites their nails. 1 tablet Biotin, 10000 units

    I recently made a promise to myself to stop biting my nails. I don’t even wanna know how many hours of my life I spend wasting time on this terrible habit, but I’m over a week in and they’re looking better but they need a proper cleaning. Can’t wait till my cleaning kit comes :)

  • @ryangray1511
    @ryangray1511 Před 2 lety +50

    Thank you so much, this is unbelievably helpful. I’ve been biting my nails since I was a very little kid and randomly outgrew the habit over the summer.
    I was planning to go to a salon and have them cut and shape them so I can just keep up on them, but this is definitely more helpful (even though it does take some time).
    I have a file very similar to yours, but have read that a glass file is supposed to be the best to use, do you recommend? And do you use it the same as the metal one?

    I'm not a guy, im not an "adult" either. But I needed these tips, since I was never taught throughout my (which is, now looking back, very sad) childhood how to groom myself.... especially my nails. It's bad, but I constantly seek for a parental figure online, you are one of them.

    I see this is an older video, but I picked up some valuable pointers. Also, I bought a similar grooming kit from Germany a few years ago, and highly recommend it. A big step up from drugstore nail clippers, and would make a great gift.

    • @agirlwithdreams15
      @agirlwithdreams15 Před 5 lety +2

      Funny Girl I have a tip: avoid most "men's" skincare. It tends to be really harsh, have toxic chemicals, and often have fragrance which harms the skin. You can find gentle drugstore "women's" skincare, though the overall cost is more.
