OMG YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO DO NAILS WHEN I WAS CHILD😂 your the reason I never brought a drill you took your time and used a file the entire time. Nice to see your still doing videos.
The Adventures of Mi I agree with you. If I’m using my e-file it’s because I’m trying to get rid of to much product. If you lay the acrylic like butter their isn’t much to need a drill for. She just taught me so much
Oh yeah. I paid six grand in nail school to get my Washington state education for a nail tech license. We didn't even have a teacher at all. UA-cam videos was my education even though I had to go to a school to get the 600hours needed to be able to take the state tests: A Written test and then the practical test. Of course, the tests are $200.00 apiece., so $6400.00 USD for a nail tech education in the USA. I just paid money to sit in a room, read the book, and watch UA-camrs teach me how to do nails. Thank GOD I found Kirsty!!! She taught me how to do it!! The others never said how to build a nail, just a parade of gel colors after a quick acrylic application without explanation. So I am thankful she does a great detailed examination of every step and procedure. I love her!!!!!
If kirstys willing to just do a whole video dedicated to the sound of buffing and filing I’d definitely be up for that... the sound of this video is actually so relaxing 😂
DEFINITELY saving this video for repeated future reference! I'm teaching myself to do my own polygel nails at home and shaping is my biggest problem. There's no better teacher out there!
This is such a great teaching tutorial! Could you do this same type of video but show how you file your own nails on both hands? Since I’m not a licensed nail tech, I only practice on myself and struggle with filing, especially contouring. It’s hard to maneuver the file and/or my hand to get the right angle when filing.
Loving the almond filing technique.. I was always told side walls, free edge, cuticle then barrel of the nail.. I have wondered why I keep getting lifting. Going to try this way now xx
You're a technical genius💡 Filing is the technical part off the process. More people who use filing, etc., in trades could move into being a nail technician.💅 Transferable skills.☺ Really great info you gave, thanks.🙋🌸
Thank you for going into so much detail. I’m still having a bit of an issue with my filing routine & now I know why. Thank you Adam for getting the close up shots. It really helped. Will watch this a few more times.
i love how you go through EVEY SINGLE step on how we can perfect the shape of the certain nail . You are a great nail technician. Definitely subcribed !!! ☺️💞
You’re such a fantastic teacher! I always wondered why you filed the cuticle area before the free edge! I love how well you explain everything you do. Thanks Kirsty, learnt so much from your videos, way more than on my nail course 🙄
Thank you soooo much for the tips on filing the edge of the file, I am not pro but do my granddaughters nails and nick her cuticle every time, and I struggle with the shaping, Big hugs and THANKS
"How to file nails like a professional." Me, an actual professional: *watches because you're so good at explaining and I still have so much to learn from you. Also your voice is very smooth*
Thank you Kirsten. That’s very helpful. I’m gonna have to watch this some more. Even though I don’t do nails for a living I love to play with them in myself. 💅🏼
Kirsty love you are a savier did u know that??? Thank u for sharing your knowledge! I did not know about the 'earthshakes' and filing cuticle before the free edge! THANK U LUV ❤
This is such an awesomely detailed video! I love that you show it with a hand file too. I do my nails at home and don't have an e-file so it's really useful to have a demonstration with a hand file.
Wow, you really know your filing!! Thanks for marking the nails with the green pen as you filed, that really helped me to understand the different angles 😊 xx
I don’t ever wanna mess up with an efile and kinda scares me lol I always love going old school thank you for breaking down everything. Your demonstrations are so precise and trustworthy!! I’m not confused at all! Thank you
Absolutely fantastic video detailing exactly where and how to file,thank you for making it. Would you make one like this detailing exact cuticle application,I know you already have one out there but an in depth video like this one would,I'm sure,help techs still struggling to get perfect cuticle applications without flooding it. Thanks again both for sharing this video xx
Your stalleto is always so beautiful. There's another UA-camr and I won't mention who but I watch her do a set and omg anyone wearing those would need to register their nails as a deadly weapon. They looked so silly and pointed I would be afraid of hurting someone with them.
I loved your video so much I’m going to start doing acrylic nails love it I’m a nail tech beginner this helps me learn a lot I also loved your acrylic nail for beginners it also helped me thank you I will keep watching your videos love you so much thank you once again ❤️❤️❤️
love !!! this was so helpful. can you make a similar video for filing/shaping acrylic nails from tips? not forms. because I dont have that nice natural looking curve from underneath the nail so I have trouble keeping the from looking too flat. idk if that makes sense.. xo
Newbie here- fantastic video! Find holding clients hands right so hard! They fight it- they want to look at everything they pull back. It’s a wrestling match how do you do it without hurting yourself I find I seem to give up and move around them more :/ which I know will cause long term problems so I’m trying to figure out now how to get control without hurting myself or them! Or yelling haha
que lindas uñas te quedaron, eres una exelente maestra, me encanta como trabajas las uñas, tengo mucho que aprender sobre el trabajo que haces, gracias por tu tiempo saludos.
Such a great video! Thank you so much for doing another, and even more in-depth filing tutorial. Would you consider doing a similar video for filing your own nails? I find I still struggle with filing my own. Thank you again!
Hi Kirsty. Thanks for these videos. They help me learn a lot. I’m a new nail tech and filing is one of the toughest things. When I’ve finished building the nails and polish I often find they look too thick. How do I know when I’ve thinned the nails just the right amount???
Love watching these tutorials but I have a bit of a stupid question, can you pinch a nail when doing an infill if the original nails wasn’t pinched ? If you can will it give a c curve ? May sound like a stupid question but I’m new to doing nails so I’m a bit unsure 😐 x
It's hard to find big time youtubers who still cater to us simple folk lol. I love how you explain everything you do and show it as well. I've been doing my nails for so long and I didn't know you should use an 80 or 100 grit nail file on natural nails. You learn something new everyday.
Giselle Hernandez A 240 or higher is best for natural nails (or even a good glass file) and rem to file in one direction. Using anything lower actually frays the keratin that makes up the nail plate and will cause the tips to split, crack, etc.
Amo tus videos y aunque no entiendo tu idioma e aprendido mucho tienes una precisión imprecionante ojala pudieras subtitular tus videos saludos desde México 😘
How do you clean your hand files? Please show a tutorial on how the different types of e-file bits are use for different parts of the nail (natural nail or acrylic) Thank You
Brilliant video. Thank you. I struggle with my filing and getting the nail just how I like. Can you tell me what grit file would you use if doing gel too Please as I only use gel. Have not yet managed to get the hang of acrylic 🙈
It would be so awesome if you could show us how to file shorter nails, I love the long but it doesn’t work with my everyday life. Every time I file my ballerina nail they tend to curve up? I lose that straight line, any tips would be awesome thanks.

Hey Jade that is called ASMR. Search on UA-cam for ASMR nail filing videos, I bet you'll find some ;)

How do you clean your hand files? Please show a tutorial on how the different types of e-file bits are use for different parts of the nail (natural nail or acrylic) Thank You
soyeni mascoe you can't clean a hand file! They are porus and cannot be properly cleaned.
You can spray them with a hard surface anti-bacterial spray, and let dry. It does help.
Thanks once more for a good technic i am learning so much
My natural nails are somewhat wonky. One side drops down so it's hard to shape them nicely. Do you have any advice on this at all?
Hi Kirsty. I keep wondering why don’t you use the e-file and file around that cuticle. I think it will come out same result but take less time
Can you do it on your own nails the same if you want to clients? Can you give same thing with gel?
