Nail clippers are a small handheld tool used for trimming and shaping human nails, typically fingernails or toenails. They consist of two blades that come together to cut off the excess length of the nail. The blades can be adjusted to different lengths depending on the desired result. Nail clippers are a common personal grooming tool used in homes and professional salons alike, and they are available in various designs and sizes for both men and women.
