Nail tips: what a photograph can and cannot show
В мені · VMENI · Updated · 1 min read
Nail tips can be sharper or more rounded, with different profiles and finishing even at the same shaft diameter. Look for consistency and the absence of burrs, bending and damage. A photograph may reveal a visible defect, but it cannot measure an exact tip radius or guarantee the sensation underfoot.
Diameter and profile are separate
A 3 mm shaft can end in different shapes. “Cone” or “ball” describes a design idea, not every dimension and tolerance. Clear close-ups from the side and above are useful.
What photographs can show
Inspect several neighbouring tips without filters. Burrs, bent points, chips, damaged coating and one notably different element need attention. A blurred highlight does not reliably show surface condition.
Inspect without testing on skin
Copper alone does not specify a tip, and rounding does not make an element guaranteed harmless. Examine the unpacked product in good light without pressing your palm onto nails. Do not file a single point by eye: it changes height and geometry. Photograph a defect and arrange a compatible replacement.
