    Thank you!!! The amount of videos I have watched in the last hour just to get to yours is ridiculous, lol. They were barely helpful and although stated beginner friendly they were not. I just got a e-file and this is the most helpful and thoroughly explained video I've found. I really appreciate it!!

      They have less incidence of cutting the skin. However, anything can cut the skin if you're spinning too fast or pressing down too hard. It's a great bit for the cuticle area. Make sure to gently push back the proximal nail fold and be gentle with the email. Happy Filing!!

    • @thenailauthority
      @thenailauthority  8 місяців тому

      Try the mandrel bit with the sanding band. You want to make sure the efile is on a very low speed, like 4-5,000 rpm. Go slow and don't press down too hard. You don't want to burn your nail. Make sure to run the efile only over the tip

    I'm so glad I found your video explaining E file Bits. I'm learning to do my own nails and I bought an E File. Thank you so much for explaining each bit. Im getting a wee bit better. But I would like to ask how many Rpms should I use when backfilling with builder gel? Should I have it high or low ? Thank you.

    • @thenailauthority
      @thenailauthority  7 місяців тому

      When backfilling on the natural nail, I don't exceed 5,000 rpm. If it's on the acrylic, hard gel, biab, or polygel, I won't go higher than 13,000 rpm's. Now, if you're using the sanding band, it's going to heat up so be careful that you aren't pressing down too hard. Hope this helps. Just take your time.

    Thank you so much for this!! Question- I just got my first e-file for use at home to do gel manicures. I usually just use builder gel on my natural nails, and keep my toes manicured with no polish. It seems like your tips were focused more on acrylics. Any tips on which tips to use when I’m working to prep my natural nails for gel?

    • @thenailauthority
      @thenailauthority  11 місяців тому

      I use the same prep for hard gel, acrylics, or gel polish. It's different for regular polish. I use the same prep because the first 3 like to stick to a more textured surface. For regular polish, i cleanse the nail, lightly remove the shine. Cleanse with alcohol again. Let dry. Base coat, let dry. Polish. Let dry. To coat. You can use a gel top coat that cures in a lamp if you let it get super dry. I'm talking dry for at least 30 mins
