Abstract: An extremely easy-to-handle nail shaper (1) for an ingrown a nail which can be attached to and detached from a nail easily without requiring any special tool, and a false nail using the nail shaper (1). The nail shaper (1) is attached to the surface of a nail (A) and has a body portion (2) formed of a spring plate material with a width corresponding to the width of the nail (A). A pair of right and left retainers (3, 3) turned downward are provided on the opposite sides at the distal edge (2f) of the body portion (2). A groove (6) into which a nail tip is received and retained is formed between each retainer (3, 3) and the body portion (2). With the nail tip received in the groove (6), the body portion (2) deflects to generate a restoring force on the opposite sides, thus shaping the nail (A) into the normal form.
