there is a blood vien that runs inside the nail about 3/4 the way down. Just trimming the tips back helps, doing it little by little allows for this blood vien to retreat without you clipping it. Its like clipping cat claws or dog nails. If you do cut to far it might bleed a bit but just tip the nail in while flour and it will act to stop the bleeding.
