Manicure preparations

  • Chapter

Abstract

The chief function of the nail in humans is that of protection. It protects the delicate end-of-finger bone, greatly helps in appreciation of fine touch and aids in picking up small objects. It is also, of course, used in scratching. Toe nails are equally important for protection.
