I love these scissors! I was TERRIFIED to cut my babies nails. For awhile I would just file them but I finally became brave enough to cut them with these scissors. I cut her nails as she slept and it was simple. You just take their finger and make cuts where you see the nails. I recommend that you wait until their nails are long enough so you have something to easily cut. It is a lot harder when their nails are short. You have to clean up all the nails but it isn't that big of a deal.
I got this for my newborn twins, and at one and a half years old I am yet to cut them while trimming their nails =). I accidentally leaned on our fist pair and bent it out of shape enough that it cut it's blade and I couldn't use it anymore. I tried two types of clippers (recommended by their Dr.) then ordered another pair of these. I find this pair so much easier to cut with.
Pros -rounded tips make them safe to use on baby and kids -very sharp blades give a clean cut with minimal effort -fingers holes give good grip and easy control -protective cover for blades is good for storage and easy to slip on and off
Cons -packaging is in a foreign language (excuse my ignorance). This in not and issue though as you don’t need instructions for this product -blades are short (around 3/4 of and inch) so definitely a product for baby and kids and not for adults

We tried nail trimmers, but could never get our sons to sit still. We tried other scissors, but they got dull quickly. Enter the Pigeon scissors from Japan and we're in love. They work great, stay sharp, give you excellent control, have nice safe rounded tips and both the new-born and next size up work great as the kids grow. This is now our go-to small gift for expecting moms and dads. They look at us like we're nuts when they open them, but eventually call us out of the blue thanking us for getting them great nail scissors.

I just came back to order the "toddler" version, as I remember that these were for younger babies. I guess that I'd forgotten that it says these are for newborns! My son is 21 months, and these are the only scissors we've used to cut his nails! The past couple of months I realized that these scissors are getting to small for him, so here I am, looking for a bigger scissor to move on to. I'll happily hang on to these first scissors for next baby!
Update! Today is Aug. 12, 2019. My son stated 1st grade. I never did purchase new set of scissors. I still use this same scissors, all these years later. They feel safe for me to use. The only item left from my son’s baby years!
