As a nail tech and taught by CND was told never to blow the dust as it becomes airborn and more likely to breathe it in so we use the brush to gently wipe it away and if you have an extractor turn it on. Never remove acrylic and chemical products in an enclosed room without adequate ventilation. Good video though
I think it's satisfying to watch. If you need help with dust you can get a nail dust vacuum it's really good for home use if you do acrylics or gel nails. Edit also a HEPA filter air purifier you really don't want to be breathing this stuff in really
Oh no! Make sure you use a slow speed and don't press down. It really shouldn't hurt at all - it's should be more like a very gentle exfoliate, if that makes sense!
Thank you! I’ll give it another go next time it didn’t hurt at all until afterwards so I didn’t realise 🤦🏻♀️😂 only had it on 3-4 got a lot to learn haha
Oh good question! Carefully, when you're starting out ;) I tend to hold the drill still, and move my nail - it stops me getting injuries from being to un-co haha It definitely gets easier with practice!
Good question - if the drill seems ineffective, or the bit 'runs away' try reversing it - you'll soon see which direction works best for the hand you're filing. I find movement in one direction - ie, cuticle to free edge, not back and forward - is best when doing your own nails.
It's a good idea to wash and sanitise your bits from time to time - and every use if sharing with more than just yourself. You can wash the bits in dish soap and hot water, and I like to turn the drill on and spin the bit in acetone to clean them - I use the lid of my drill bit, works like a charm :) You can also use isopropyl alcohol to disinfect.

Totally agree - I am outside wearing a mask when using the e-file.
I need to practice my cuticles are sooooo sore from attempting this yesterday 😂

What is the best way to do your non dominant hand
Oh good question! Carefully, when you're starting out ;) I tend to hold the drill still, and move my nail - it stops me getting injuries from being to un-co haha It definitely gets easier with practice!
So no need to cut after doing with this tool?
No, mostly not necessary! Of course you still can if there's some stragglers, but generally I don't find there's a need!
Satisfying
how do i know if or when i should use the F or R setting?

australian?
Yes we are :)
I just got this. How do I sanitize the parts? Do I need to? I’m particularly concerned about parts use under the cuticle. Thanks

I put mine in 91% isopropyl alcohol to sanitize them.
Do I need to push my cuticles back first?
@monicahayes562 yes I would but if you don't, it will still work if they're not very attached to the nail plate.
