trimming nails
Shortening finger tips
Trimming nails is the routine grooming task of cutting fingernails or toenails to maintain a neat, manageable length.
The phrase typically refers to the act itself rather than any particular technique: I spent five minutes trimming nails before the interview.
Nail trimmers or clippers are the usual tools, though some prefer scissors or files.
