Cuticle Pusher JN-13

Cuticle pusher JN-13 – features of the manicure tool

The wooden-stick-style end gives you the familiar feel of working at the nail plate, but in a metal version that can be prepared again and again for the next treatment. It's a practical, precise nail tool if you want reusable equipment that is easy to keep hygienic, and the good grip makes it comfortable to work on every client's nails.

• Wooden-stick-style end – for precisely pushing cuticles back from the nail plate.
• High-quality stainless steel – a metal cuticle pusher for everyday nail work.
• Autoclave sterilisation – the tool can be fully prepared before every client.
• Manicure and pedicure – one nail tool for fingernails and toenails.
• Grip and function: the comfortable handle gives a steady grip and comfort during longer sessions.

The metal cuticle pusher is a reusable tool, so you don't need to restock disposable sticks before your next treatments. Just remember to clean and sterilise it properly after each client.

Build quality and disinfection of the JN-13 cuticle pusher

The JN-13 cuticle pusher is made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant stainless steel, so the tool keeps its precise finish and neat appearance for a long time. Disinfection and autoclave sterilisation are the foundation of hygiene in professional beauty salons, so it's worth keeping several pushers at your nail desk so you always work with a tool that is ready to use. Solid build quality also means the pusher doesn't warp with regular use in everyday nail work.

How to push cuticles back with a cuticle pusher

• Before the treatment, disinfect the cuticle pusher and sterilise it in a cosmetic autoclave.
• Prepare the cuticles – once softened, they are easier to push back from the nail plate.
• Place the tip flat against the nail plate and use gentle movements to push the cuticles back towards the nail fold, without pressing hard on the nail plate.
• Once the cuticles are pushed back, remove any excess dead cuticle skin, for example with cuticle nippers JN-08 4 mm or cuticle scissors JN-23.
• After use, clean the cuticle pusher and prepare it for sterilisation again.

Carefully pushing back the cuticles is the foundation of a neat manicure – it makes shaping the nail plate easier and lets you apply the next products more precisely along the cuticle line, for example before applying gel polish or builder gel. Work gently so you don't damage the nail plate.

In a pedicure, cuticles can be thicker and less flexible, so it's worth spending more time softening them and working calmly with small movements. Always guide the pusher towards the cuticles, not deeper into the nail plate.

Cuticle pusher, wheel pusher or chisel pusher – which cuticle tool to choose

The cuticle pusher is one of several types of tool for working with cuticles in manicures and pedicures. In the nail tools category you will also find cuticle wheel pushers and chisel pushers – they differ in the shape of the tip and the way they work at the nail plate. If you like the orange stick technique but want a durable metal version, the JN-13 pusher is the natural choice; if you prefer a different tip shape, take a look at the wheel and chisel pushers in the same nail tools category.

Who the JN-13 cuticle pusher is for and how to choose a model

This is a professional manicure tool, one of the essentials at every nail stylist's desk. The JN-13 pusher is a good fit for professional nail stylists who do both manicures and pedicures, and for anyone who likes working with a orange stick but prefers a metal tool that can be sterilised. In the Julia Nessa range you will find several pusher models marked with JN numbers – each has a different tip design for working on nails. Compare, for example, the cuticle pusher JN-16, and choose the tool that suits your technique and comfort. The pusher is also handy for anyone who does manicures at home and prefers a reusable tool to disposable nail sticks. We have gathered all the models in the cuticle pushers for nails category – there you will also find accessories for precise cuticle work that make everyday nail design easier.
