Check out these simple men’s toenail care tips and solutions that will help you keep your toenails clean, smooth, and freshly manicured all summer without any hassle.

Men’s Toenail Care

It’s all about technique! Take your time, use a sharp pair of large clippers, and don’t be afraid to pick up a large sized emery board as well

  • Clip straight across! Many men want the rounded look – but that has to come on its own. A straight-across cut helps prevent ingrown toenails and also cut down on irritation and hang nails.
  • It’s totally fine to leave your nails  just a little long. Many guys don’t want to clip their toenails often so they go as short as possible. This is a disaster waiting to happen! This a little extra nail to protect the delicate nail bed.
  • Cut your nails only when dry. Fresh out of the shower cutting opens you up to torn nails.
  • Try cutting your toenails straight across in small nips instead of one big cut.

Filing & Cuticles

Use a strong, large sized emery board to give your nails a smooth, clean, and polished look in just a few minutes.

  • Gently file across the top of your nail in one direction – never go back and forth. Move from the top of your nail towards your toe to smooth out a rounded edge.
  • Never clip or cut your cuticles unless you’re a fan of infection! Instead,  pick up a simple cuticle tool and gently push them back each time you clip.

In addition to your nails, you can add just a few extra steps to keep toes and feet looking amazing and feeling soft.

  • Pick up a pumice stone and use it in the shower every other day. Gently scrub the bottom of your feet to remove excess skin. This cuts back on scaly feet and can even reduce foot odor.
  • Use light lotion to hydrate your feet right our of the shower – your feet appreciate lotion just as much as the rest of your skin does!
  • Handle any signs of athlete’s foot, fungus, or infection immediately. There are some amazing all natural products on the market to help with these issues, and your doctor can also give you some really effective remedies as well.
