How to remove callus' from hands?

[tpoeatvon]

I tore one off during deads this weak and I figure they're getting too brittle now. Has anyone got something they use to remove them?

Good hand-care video, fairly relevant (especially with prevention, but I think he mentions using a pumice stone or similar to remove calluses).

I heat my hands up in the shower, and when there soft I use a razor to trim them down. Be careful but you do have to apply a decent amount of pressure. After, I use a file or sandpaper to smooth them off then some hand lotion. Do this every couple weeks and it helps a ton. I rarely use straps and play baseball without batting gloves so my hands get really beat up. Hope this helps

Cover your hands in petroleum jelly/vaseline and either wear gloves or.socks on your hands at night for a week. Im a brick mason it should work fine for you. my hands are like chunks of concrete with massive cracks but we tell new people to use the vaseline if they cant handle it.

I hear pumice stone is incredibly good at getting rid of all the calluses. Just look up the proper techniques to remove them when using a pumice stone so you don't further agitate your calluses.

I just use a knife and fingernail clippers. I'm thinking I may need to look into that pumice stone.

If I don't trim mine down ever couple of months I will have rips.

Works great. Basically a cheese grater for dead skin.

I use a bone saw.

been using a pumice stone over the last couple weeks and it's night and day difference on my hands

before my calluses would peel or flake off, now, even after DLing last night and power cleaning on Monday, they are smooth with no dead/dry skin on top

I bought a cheap "callus remover" from walgreens for $6. Does a decent job, but if I had it to do over again, I'd buy a ped-egg or something similar. The flat grater doesn't fit well into the curve of my hand where the callus develops. But it does a decent enough job to keep my wife happy.

Just a personal vote for the callous remover shaving thing.. I prefer it to the ped-egg.

Do it after a shower and the skin just shaves off like buttah...

I second teeth. I bite them off and spit rhem out in little bits.

I got after mine with a knife once a week after a long, hot shower
