ABSTRACT:
A fingernail wrapper and wrapping technique utilizing a thin flexible sheet, of tissue paper, for example, which includes a rear tab portion, a forwardly divergent intermediate portion forming a forward extension of the rear portion and having forwardly divergent edges, and a front portion forming a forward extension of the intermediate portion and including generally transverse rows of perforations along which the sheet may be torn to adjust the length of the front portion thereof. In applying the wrapper, the rear portion and the intermediate portion are adhered to the upper surface of the nail with the rear portion spaced from the cuticle enclosing the base of the nail, and with the forwardly divergent edges of the intermediate portion overlying the side edges of the nail substantially at the points where they begin to protrude forwardly from the finger itself, i.e., at the points where they begin to separate from the finger itself. The foregoing accomplished, the next step is to tear the front portion along a selected one of the rows of perforations such as to provide the front portion with a length to fit neatly under the tip of the nail. Then, the front portion of the sheet is tucked under the tip of the nail and is adhered to the under side of the nail adjacent its tip. Finally, after smoothing down the wrapper, one or more coats of nail polish, hardener, or mending polish, are applied to the top, under side and tip of the nail, any polish, or the like, being removed from the cuticle with an orange stick in the usual manner.
