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.
