A member asked:
Is it easier to clip my toenails after a shower?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably yes: The moisture from a bath or shower tends to soften out nails and make them less brittle and thus they should be easier to clip, though I am unaware of any scientific studies verifying this.
