Care & Sterilisation

To keep your STALEKS Classic scissors in top condition:

• After each use, wipe the blades clean with a lint-free cloth and dry thoroughly.

• Disinfect with an approved instrument disinfectant solution. Do not use an autoclave or dry-heat oven; the Classic series is not rated for high-temperature sterilisation.

• Apply a drop of instrument oil to the joint pivot regularly to maintain a smooth stroke.

• Check blade alignment periodically by making a test cut on paper. The blades should meet evenly along their full length.

• Store in a dry case or pouch with blades closed to protect the cutting edge.

About This Series

The STALEKS Classic series offers reliable, well-constructed instruments at an accessible price point. Classic tools are manufactured from quality stainless steel with manually sharpened blades and a polished finish for corrosion resistance. Designed for home users and those who want a dependable everyday tool, the Classic series delivers consistent performance for personal nail care. Note: sharpening for Classic series instruments is adapted for home use, and some models use chemical disinfection rather than autoclave sterilisation.

FAQs

Should I use nail scissors or nippers?

Nail scissors are ideal for trimming and shaping the free edge of the nail, particularly for fingernails. They follow the natural curve of the nail plate, giving a clean, controlled cut. Nail nippers, by contrast, use a lever-action jaw and are better suited to thicker toenails or precision cuticle work. For general nail shaping and trimming — especially for children or at home — quality nail scissors like the STALEKS Classic or Beauty & Care range are a practical and safe choice.

Can STALEKS scissors be sharpened?

Yes — STALEKS scissors can be professionally resharpened. The Classic and Smart series are factory-sharpened to a high standard, but after extended use they can be returned to a professional instrument sharpener. The Beauty & Care series is designed and priced for home use; sharpening is possible but not typically cost-effective. If your scissors feel like they are dragging or folding rather than cutting cleanly, resharpening will restore performance. Never attempt to sharpen scissors yourself with a household sharpening rod — this can misalign the blade geometry.

How do I sterilise STALEKS nail scissors?

It depends on the series. The STALEKS Smart series is professional-grade: rinse under running water, clean with an enzymatic cleaner or disinfectant solution, then sterilise in an autoclave at up to 134°C or in a dry-heat oven, and dry thoroughly before storage. The Classic and Beauty & Care series are designed for home use: disinfect them with a standard chemical instrument disinfectant only. They are not rated for autoclave or dry-heat oven sterilisation.

How do I choose the right blade length?

Blade length affects how much of the nail edge you can trim in a single cut. A 21–24mm blade is a medium length that suits most nail correction tasks on adults. Shorter blades (around 15mm on micro scissors) offer greater precision for detailed work or for use on children's small nails. Choose a shorter blade for precision and control, and a medium blade for general nail shaping. All STALEKS nail scissors use manually sharpened blades, so cutting performance is consistent regardless of blade length.
