Double ended curette

[Lucybluebell]

Well my double ended curette has arrived and I can't wait to try it out- just wanted to check if there was a special way of using it that I should know as we didn't use them during training?

I straightened mine as I couldn't get on with the kink.

Now I love it.

From memory I think Fingernail Fixers is straight too

[Donnalvsmickey]

where can you buy a curette?is there anywhere in the uk?

 

[SillyBilly]

I got mine from Sweet Squared. Brilliant tool and an excellent company to deal with.

I copied Pooh8bear and use my new and improved straight version every time!
Quite a stressful moment during the straightening process though. I told my husband that he must NOT break it, or else... :Scared:

Good luck with using it

I shall have to thank my husband again for not breaking it, mind he was under strict instructions to do it gently.

Me too! Hubby was gutted and promised to buy me another one.

Bad luck Becky. You obviously didn't sound threatening enough

is it possible to start scraping layers of nail plate away with these cuticle pushers, when trying to get rid of a lot of cuticle off the nail plate?

 

[PixieBeauty]

It's possible anytime if you're not careful. Using it at an angle as close to the nail plate as possible will help, and being gentle. I tend to use a larger pusher first then go over again with the curette xx

 

[Lucybluebell]

I have to say again just how amazing it is! Did my own gel nails today and the amount of cuticle that wasn't visible but came away was amazing!!!
I feel much more confident now. I usually get lifting after a few days and I'm hoping to see a difference

What about the SS2 Precision Probe instead? It's straight and great for cuticle work.

How do u clean it? I feel like the "cups" hold the cuticle particles and I have to use a toothpick to get it out
