I tried that but Sugar's nails grow fast. To the point of curling when they get a little too long. She got stuck in her KB bag when we first got it and also in my suitcase mesh LAST WEEK!!


This is why I stated to do short bursts only and don't apply pressure. Let the tool do the work. I'm still learning too
