Is it normal to cut off my cuticles?

I hate having cuticles on my nails, as I think that it looks better without them. I cut them off when then grow back, does anyone else do this? Is this normal?

      It's not painful at all. It's just skin xD

    Very normal. I do it myself weekly with a cuticle scissor. I know a lot of people go to the salon to have it done.

    Yes, I do it all the time, but surely that's what cuticle scissors are for? I like the way it makes your fingernails look longer and neater. I also find it quite absorbing, as it needs to be done with precision to avoid cutting yourself.
