The Tool
The SMART 71 14 mm is a pedicure-specific nipper designed for ingrown nails and free-edge correction. The narrow, elongated blade provides access under overgrown or ingrown nail plates — the “safe” blunt tips minimise accidental skin damage.
The Experience
Ergonomic curved handles with a wide grip and double-spring mechanism provide smooth, consistent movement. The manual sharpening process ensures long-lasting sharpness and the tool retains its edge even under heavy sterilisation use.
The Material
High-alloy stainless steel with special GOI polishing for enhanced corrosion protection. The tool withstands repeated use and sterilisation without losing precision.
The Result
Effective removal of ingrown nails and free-edge correction with precision, minimal trauma and reliable performance — ideal for pedicures requiring specialist instruments.

Key Features & Benefits
Premium Staleks Pro stainless steel nippers. Manual sharpening, multiple sizes (3–14 mm), autoclave safe. Perfect for professionals who demand precision.
How to Use
Disinfect and sterilize the tool before use.
Push back the cuticle or lift the skin (using a pusher or spatula).
Hold the nipper comfortably — palm relaxed, spring facing upward.
Trim only the dead cuticle/skin — make small, controlled cuts.
Avoid cutting live tissue to prevent irritation or bleeding.
After use, clean thoroughly and lubricate the joint if needed.
Store in a dry, protective case between services.
For SMART 71 and SMART 70 (ingrown/nail nippers):
Gently insert the tip under the nail edge and trim gradually — never force.
Pro Tips
Let the tips do the work — not the force. Pressing harder dulls the blades faster.
Always cut in small steps instead of trying to remove the cuticle in one pass.
Use the correct blade length:
3–5 mm → micro precision & lateral folds
7 mm → general manicure work
9–14 mm → nail trimming / ingrown correction
If the skin pulls while cutting, stop — reposition the blade for a cleaner angle.
Keep a drop of oil on the pivot (spring area) weekly for smoother motion.
Professional tip: The sharper the tool, the lighter the touch you need.
Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I sterilize these nippers in an autoclave or dry heat?
Yes. All Staleks Pro nippers are made from high-alloy stainless steel and are designed to withstand autoclave and dry-heat sterilization without losing sharpness or corroding. Just ensure the tool is fully dry before storage.
How often do I need to sharpen the nippers?
Sharpening frequency depends on usage and sterilization cycles. In a professional salon using them daily, manual sharpening may be needed every 6–12 months. You’ll know it’s time if the tool starts to “pull” instead of cutting cleanly.
Which blade size should I choose?
- Small blades (3–5 mm) = maximum precision (sidewalls, folds, corrective manicures)
Medium blade (7 mm) = best balance for everyday cuticle work
Large blades (9–14 mm) = faster trimming, nail nippers, or ingrown nail work
Choose the blade size based on the technique and the type of cuticle work you perform.
