Fingernails?

I'd imagine his fingers will be fine. When you hold his finger, just push down on the pad of his finger to make the nail sit out/away from his actual finger a bit more before you clip. I hope that makes sense?

I have always used nail clippers and never had any problems.

The skin is stuck to our too if you cut it back far enough. So long as you're careful it's usually all good.
