According to data, nail clippers were first popular in the United States and Europe, but in the 1930s, American Voss Foucault was the first to apply for a patent. Since then, nail clippers have spread around the world.
Nowadays, when we fix our nails, we take out the nail clippers. However, nail clippers were an invention of the 20th century. So, how did the ancients repair nails when there were no nail clippers? Today, a YaQin diamond drill supplier will introduce to you how the ancients repaired nails.
As the saying goes: People grow hair freely and nails grow freely. In fact, the length of the nails is also related to age. According to data, infants’ nails grow by about 0.7 mm per week. As they grow older, their growth rate increases. After adults, the nails grow by an average of 1 to 1.4 mm per week, but most people grow their nails after the age of 30. The speed will slow down.
In addition, nails grow fast in summer, slow in winter, fast in the morning, and slow at night. Frequent rubbing will also speed up the growth of nails, so people who are used to right-handed nails grow faster than those on the left. The growth rate of each nail is not exactly the same, usually the longer the finger, the faster the nail grows.
These little secrets are actually by our side, but many people have not discovered them.
Nowadays, when people’s fingernails grow, they will use nail clippers to repair them. So how did the ancients repair nails when there were no nail clippers? Daily Chinese Characters editor looked through the information and found the answer.
According to data records, humans are still in the age of apes, just like today’s wild animals, such as wolves, leopards, and tigers, grinding their claws on wood, tree trunks, and stones. However, after humans began to use tools, in the Stone Age, human nails were trimmed on gravel or rough sandstone.
In the Bronze Age, humans began to polish their nails on bronze knives. Later, mankind invented a file. This file is a far cry from today’s file, that is, there are some small particles protruding on the bronze, and then rubbing on it. Later, people discovered scissors.
At present, the scissors unearthed in the ancient tombs of the Western Han Dynasty in Luoyang have been around for more than 2,100 years. In the 6th century AD, scissors were introduced to Japan from China and began to be manufactured and used in large quantities during the Edo period.
Before trimming the nails, it is best to treat the dead skin and calluses on the nails to make the nails grow better.
