Fold-Up Nail Clipper by Safety 1st - one color, one size Top Quality

These are hands down the best baby nail clippers I have used and I'll explain why.

Grip Size-this size is perfect, not too small, not too big. If you had these nail clippers w/out the white grip part it would be harder to hold. We have several pairs of them and they tend to turn in your fingers as you try to cut the nails. Then there are the nail clippers that have TOO much to hold onto. Some people might like the ones that you grip in your whole hand but to me you just can't get very precise when trying to cut tiny nails. With these, I typically grip the white part between my thumb & pointer finger but I can also hold it many different ways and it is still easy to cut tiny nails.

Clipper Size-these have the perfect small size to easily cut tiny nails, now there are 'safety' clippers that have extra material around the clipper part but I HATE those. Not only do they make seeing the nails hard, it is hard to get the nails in to actually cut them. If you are too afraid to use these regular clippers and need the added safety material, you probably shouldn't be trying to cut a baby's nails.

Clipper Sharpness-these are so sharp, makes cutting tiny nails very easy and quick in one click. I've got other nail clippers and they only bend their nail or will barely cut it and then I have to keep clipping several times to get it to actually cut the nail off. It is like using knives in the kitchen, a dull knife is a lot more dangerous than a sharp one if you're trying to cut something.

My girls were both really small when they were born and their nails were actually too thin to cut at first. We could only file them. Once my girls nails were able to be cut we tried at least 4 different kinds of clippers with NO success before buying these. My daughters nails were TINY and these made it a lot easier to cut their nails. I've actually used these to cut my nails and they work better than my adult sized clippers.

Also, you don't need the clippers with the magnifying glass or the attached light, they don't work very well at all.

Note: These clippers do cut straight across so you'll probably have to round the edges of their nails with a file. I've used nail clippers that are rounded but depending on your childs nail size(and no nail size is the same) they either dont cut enough or cut too much. I like these that cut straight across because you can get a closer-more precise cut. And I always fild their nails after they are cut no matter what so they are nice & smooth & won't scratch themselves.

My girls are 14 months old and I've had these since right after they were born so I've used these clippers a lot and they are not dull at all.
