Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (3037) or the full path ("Health & Beauty > Personal Care > Cosmetics > Cosmetic Tools > Nail Tools > Cuticle Scissors"). Both are predefined values for the same category. The ID is the sturdier of the two, because renaming any segment above this one changes the path text and leaves the number alone.
Bear in mind that google_product_category is an optional attribute. Google assigns a category automatically, and your value is treated as a signal rather than an override. When an override actually applies.

Either row below is accepted. The first is the one to send.
| id | title | google_product_category |
|---|---|---|
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | 3037 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Health & Beauty > Personal Care > Cosmetics > Cosmetic Tools > Nail Tools > Cuticle Scissors |
This path has no comma, so an unquoted cell holds it as it stands — which is not true of every category in the taxonomy. The numeric ID, 3037, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.

These sit under the same parent and start with the same word, which is exactly when the wrong one gets picked.
Questions about Cuticle Scissors
What is the Google product category ID for Cuticle Scissors?
3037. The full path, "Health & Beauty > Personal Care > Cosmetics > Cosmetic Tools > Nail Tools > Cuticle Scissors", is the same category written the other way. The ID is shorter, and renaming a segment above this one changes the path text while leaving the number alone.
Is anything more specific than Cuticle Scissors available?
No. Cuticle Scissors is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 6, so 3037 is the most precise value this branch offers. If it does not describe your product closely enough, the answer is a different branch, not a deeper one.
Where does Cuticle Scissors sit in the taxonomy?
At level 6, under Nail Tools (2975). The chain from the top is Health & Beauty → Personal Care → Cosmetics → Cosmetic Tools → Nail Tools → Cuticle Scissors. If your product does not belong under Nail Tools, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Cuticle Scissors is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Nail Tools first — there are 9 other categories at this level: Cuticle Pushers (2739), Manicure & Pedicure Spacers (7494), Manicure Tool Sets (6300), Nail Buffers (6341), Nail Clippers (2828), Nail Drill Accessories (499698), and 3 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Nail Tools (2975) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How big is Cuticle Scissors compared with the categories next to it?
It is fourth largest of the 10 at its level, carrying 0 categories below it. A bigger category is not a better one — it just means more of the taxonomy is still open below you after you pick it.
What is the difference between Cuticle Scissors and Cuticle Pushers?
They sit side by side under Nail Tools and start with the same word, which is why they get swapped. Cuticle Scissors is 3037; Cuticle Pushers is 2739. The paths are the reliable way to tell them apart — compare "Health & Beauty > Personal Care > Cosmetics > Cosmetic Tools > Nail Tools > Cuticle Scissors" with "Health & Beauty > Personal Care > Cosmetics > Cosmetic Tools > Nail Tools > Cuticle Pushers" before you submit.
