Can you show us how to properly build a nail with dip powder? That’s how I do my nails but I find I never have a nice arch where it’s needed… can you help me?
Why do most people where masks when filing?
Nice
I seriously would love to meet you! And have you do my nails! I love your videos, I’m addicted to watching the way you teach!!! Thank you !!!
What bit would you use for helping to take off dip powder nails before you soak them off?
One time I went to a place that was using a machine to take off my regular nail polish (not gel) mind you she didn't ask either and she filled so down I felt it on my real nail. Terrible
Do you know of any UK sellers for this nail drill please? I would love to get this model.
can you use the e-file if you build your nails with hard gel too?
Thank you for this video, you're awesome
A carbide cone bit or a carbide flame bit works so much better and doesn't get hot because the teeth are actually grabbing the product and removing it by cutting it not "sanding" it off with friction like those bits she's using… because friction creates heat. So look up a gel/ acrylic removing carbide cone or flame bit and see the difference in the teeth and the rows and you'll what I mean. They are SO much better at taking stuff off the nails with minimal effort.
Apparently I need a new tech. But I have to find one who can structure nail tips because i dont get the classic tips anymore. I get the overlay And if any of my real nails bright then he structures a tip for me.. By he is always nipping my cuticles with that 1 bit and it hurts like hell and I always tell him to be careful around the area he still hits that part of my skin and it's so annoying because then my skin Burns there for 2 or 3 days everytime I wash my hands until it heals up…the other Techs in the shop can't even build a tip nor can many in a lot of the other shops in my area they're not that skilled or they're always way too busy smh. I find the men to be less gentle too. I'm going to Several shops where they don't even hold your hand properly when they file and your fingers be sore or your nails be sore and they just do everything rough and also try to be more quick than anything. Me dreading that process is what has me thinking about purchasing my own stuff and learning to do my own fills
Your so nice and soft voice
I've been using the typical files you get at the store for prepping the natural nail for acrylic application. Now I'm thinking that might be too fine? I also was using that thin pointed bit to get at that cuticle area on my "turtles" but I am using it side ways rather than pointed end first. I know I'm probably doing a million things wrong because the acrylic is lifting as soon as I'm done lol. I'm wondering if e-filing wrong can cause lifting? I'm pretty sure I'm just barely hitting the cuticle with the acrylic too. Someday my "turtles" will become beautiful swans. Someday…..lol XD
Do you sanitize the nail bits or replace them for each client?
Your very pretty Suzie..
Suzie, can I use an e-File to remove Dip Powder Nails? If so, what speed and grit should I use? Gracias!
I just bought an electric file for use on my own acrylic nails, and it tickles so bad no matter what bit I use that I am considering returning it unless you have any tips or tricks for this, I already searched YouTube, but found nothing for this particular issue.
thanks so much Suzie….I wasn't sure what each bit was specifically for…excellent video!!!
I got my nails done recently and my nail tech was taking off the gel polish in one stroke and really heating up fingers up, I was so disappointed in them. She also filed off so much of the acrylic (this was just a fill) that she had to put on more acrylic.
How many rpm is "5"?
Suzie, please help! I have a client who's nails are always lifting form the sides. She is really the only one that I have problems with. What I'm doing wrong??? Thank you. –
Thank you so much., so educational
I've recently purchased this machine. Do you always work on speed 5 or less?
0:55 this is not an extra coarse bit, it's fine drill bit. you should know that by colour (yellow-extra fine, red-fine, blue-medium, green-coarse, black-extra coarse)
This seems like a silly question Suzi but how do you tell just by looking at a band that goes on a mandrel whether it is fine, medium or course? I got some with my drill and can't tell the difference just be looking. They look all the same.
Do you think you'd be able to do a video of nails that encapsulate liquid inside of them? Like a mixture of glitter and water inside the nail?
I loved this tutorial on how to use the e-file and the bits. A lot of people are scared of these because they think damage can be caused on the natural nail and skin, but you tutorial shows you that in the right hands and right training that you will not cause damage and you can speed you work up. I wondered if Swan have a UK site, because there site only delivers within Canada? 😉 It would be lovely for you to come to the Leeds, UK to do some training. Love watching your tutorials your also lucky when you get sent products to try out to see if they are good for us nail techs or not.
I want to have a good E-file and bits, I've only got a basic hand e-file and bits. 🙂
Can you do a video to show how you use the E-File on a natural/naked nail?
Hi dear, I really want to have certificate to work in Canada as a nail technician. But the schools are too expensive. If someone knows low fees certifications or spooner plz help me . You can contact me at [email protected]
This is just satisfying
Please show us how to file down the length of acrylic/gel nails using the e-file. ❤ watching you!
Where can we get that e-file in the US? The link in the description box doesn't work for me.
"that's crazy man" hahaha you are the best!
hahaha
Loving your videos! I will soon be purchasing a drill for at home use. Do you have any suggestions on a good one or a video already on that?
What file is this? I'm just starting out and I'm looking for an electric file that works really well but isn't super expensive
