Shoutout to the time I used kitchen scissors on cuticles back in beauty school

Back in 2018 at Paul Mitchell in Austin, I was so broke I grabbed my roommate's kitchen shears to trim cuticles before a mannequin head practical. The instructor walked by, gave me this LOOK, and said "those are for chicken, not fingers" in front of the whole class. Anyone else have a cringey memory of using the wrong tool when you first started?

Grabbed nail clippers for my cuticles once and ended up in urgent care.

Man I've done the same dumb thing. A good pair of cuticle nippers works way better, just gotta be careful with how deep you cut.
