Which implement is primarily used for soaking nails comfortably?

The implement primarily used for soaking nails comfortably is a fingerbowl. A fingerbowl is designed to hold warm, soapy water or a soaking solution that softens the nails and cuticles, making it easier for both the technician and the client to work with the nail area. Soaking helps in preparing the nails for manicure services by softening the cuticles and allowing for easier removal of any dry or dead skin.

Other implements, such as nail nippers, metal pushers, and tweezers, serve different purposes in the manicure process. Nail nippers are used for trimming excess nails or cuticles, metal pushers are used for gently pushing back cuticles, and tweezers are typically employed for picking up small items or for precision work. These tools do not provide the soaking function that a fingerbowl does, which is essential for comfortable and effective nail care.
