Never push back your cuticles. That's horrible advice, if you're well hydrated/moisturized then you will have no need to do this.
ESPECIALLY don't let a zipperhead do this to you in a salon, it opens you up to infection and you can literally lose digits this way. It's so bad that women are advised not to even shave their legs before getting pedicures just because they might get something, let alone poking a tool into your finger to push back your skin.
women taught pushing back their cuticles because it makes their nails appear longer aka they're retarded and decided that getting rid of skin on their fingers instead of growing their nails is easier.
