Nail clippers
Let’s face it: How many of us are sanitizing nail clippers? How do you plead, guilty or not guilty?
If you want to maintain healthy nails, nail clipper sterilization is essential, because it kills the harmful bacteria that can stay on the blades or the handle.
When nail clippers aren’t cleaned and disinfected properly between each use, this bacteria can sometimes turn into nail fungus, which is easily transmitted. No one wants a fungal nail infection as it can result in nail discoloration, thickening and crumbling on the edge.
Unfortunately, most people don’t regularly clean their nail clippers and also share them casually with friends and family. Just like razors, sharing your nail clipper could be a dangerous habit.
Just think about it: Your nail clipper could come in contact with another person’s blood which is one common way to spread hepatitis C, as well as bacterial infections.
