Description

The Trim Metal Nail File is the perfect tool to shape and smooth nails while helping to prevent nail splitting. Stainless steel.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Nails should always be filed when dry to ensure smooth edges. Place the file under the nail edge at a slant and file in one direction only. Back-and-forth filing may cause cracking and splitting. For best results, nails should be filed into an oval shape following fingertip contour. Filing into a point weakens the nail.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS: The file may be rinsed in warm water to remove residue.

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED: TRIM products are guaranteed to be superior in lasting performance and free from defects in material and workmanship. Return defective items for replacement.

    This file is too rough for fingernails, may be better on toenails, or not. You want smooth nails not damaged ones.

    It just has ridges or grooves there isn't any way to file your nails you should offer a diamond nail file for your customers you know it actually has been used for decades! This file isn't a file it's what usually comes with nail clippers and used to clean under your nails!! Come on Target

    Ellie - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
    Bought this three weeks ago and it sliced my skin under my fingernail. I assumed I was being way too hard. Today I tried to file my nails again and was very cautious and gentle and it still sliced my finger open again but at least not under my nail this time. On top of the file not even doing a good job. I do NOT recommend this.

    Does not smooth out nails at all. If anything, I need a nail file after using this one. Leaves nails feeling very scratchy and uneven.

    This nail file has no handle, so it is hard to hold. And when it slips it is so sharp on the edges that it cuts through skin. Two people have been cut so far. Bad and dangerous design!

    For filing I prefer an emery board. However for cleaning under nail with cotton on the point it's 👍

    This nail file is too thick to get under nail edges, and the handle has an area that is very sharp with an unnecessary triangular cut-out. I usually prefer metal nail files over emery boards, but this is not a good one.
