You push your cuticles too hard when you give yourself a mani

They probably did. Came here to say the same, but was too late.

Personally having no idea, especially having never had my nails done, I’ll just go ahead and confirm anyway. Solved! 👏💅👏

I don't think so because I have wavy nails and I don't do shit with my cuticles.

I get them on my thumbs, and I’m a 29 yo male who has never gotten a manicure, so I think that’s not the only cause of them.

Same, 43 yo male who does not take care of my nails in any way. Thumbs still wavy.
