An extremely easy-to-handle nail shaper (1) for ingrown nail which can be attached to and detached from a nail easily without requiring any special tool, and a nail employing that 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 such a width as corresponding to the width of the nail (A). A pair of right and left stoppers (3, 3) turned downward are provided on the opposite sides at the pointed edge (2f) of the body portion (2). A groove (6) into which the tip of a nail is received and stopped is formed between each stopper (3, 3) and the body portion (2). Under a state where the tip of a nail received into the groove (6), the body portion (2) bends to generate restoring force on the opposite side parts, thus shaping the nail (A) normally. ® KIPO & WIPO 2009
