Oooo I over filed my nails thank you for this
Anastasia the way you explain everything so carefully and thoughtful has helped me sharpen my skills, I’ve been a nail technician for 26yrs and there’s always room for improvement no matter how much time spent in the industry, I’ve seen products change in the 26yrs and I have to say products today are so much easier than when I first set out back in 1995, those tiny cuticle drill bits weren’t invented back in my day I absolutely love them they cut my time spent on a client in 1/2, I’ve always used a E-file they were bigger and clumsier back then if I remember correct they were called precision drills back then & they were over £1,000 a piece that’s without the drill bits😳the E-file came along at the perfect time and they are getting smaller and more powerful plus safer on the nail plate, I look forward to your posts there’s a lesson for me in each video, you do a grand job every time & what I love about you is you take the time to respond to your followers I truly admire you for that your such a beautiful soul dear, thank you for sharing I’m happy because while I was already on my iPhone I saw the notification pop up so I get to be the first to respond, bless you Anastasia you really are a lovely lady so thoughtful and so kind🙏🏽wishing you a beautiful day dear💅🏽💅🏽💅🏽
Thank you so much, Barbie! ❤️❤️❤️
This is what I love ❤️ about this channel I want to be a nail tech with all my heart ♥️ but I’m doing it alone myself at home I can’t afford lessons and really struggling to buy products so only have cheap stuff would love to have better products to see what I’m missing out on and learn more I’m so thankful for all the help with information from Anastasia really appreciate her xxxx
All the " corner shops" use the drill, even for gel mani....but they press hard and make the rings on nails
Oh my goodness! I could’ve used you about a year ago when I first started using an e-file. I over filed them so bad they started to peel- it was a mess!,it took me forever for them to grow out. I learned my lesson! For everybody who is using an e-file,watch the videos first and be very careful! Thank you for the informative information😍
e-files are evil. You really have to be a pro to avoid damage. If you're not experienced or trained you're bound to make mistakes. I watched tons of videos, was very careful and still caused damage.
I’ve stepped away from my efile. I was over aggressive and learned my lesson!
I heard that!!
@@intika4530 I think that just WATCHING a lot of videos is not enough. We need training in which we can avoid mistakes. Anastasia has developed special courses to teach how to use e-files correctly
Same here 🥺
When my daughter came home from California with over filed nail beds I used hard gel to help them heal and grow that area out.
Yes!…….. so much over filing done on the West Coast😩
Yes, they seem to love their drill!! Don't know why they lie and say everything has to be drilled to stick...🙄
You can thank the Vietnamese for over filing cuz they just want more clients more money doesn't matter how much pain and fungus they have they've got wafer thin nails and are so picky they hurt your feelings
@@britneyspears2496 I hate that I agree with this broad statement but in my area they do dominate the industry. I'm 45 min south of Houston. It's impossible to find a salon that cares. They remove gel, dip and acrilic nails by barely soaking them in acetone. They rarely even wrap them in foil anymore, preferring you to stick your whole fingers in a bowl for 5 min and then over filing the crap out of them and drawing blood on a finger or 2, and somehow having the audacity to blame you if the nail ends up crooked or bubbles in it or you moved and that's why you are bleeding. They also don't listen or follow procedure for waxing. If you are a good tipper they can do a decent pedicure ONLY if you pay for the upcharged options. Most the salons even have "eyelash extensions" which end up being a horrible mess of sometimes toxic, always crappy glue and cheap clusters. We do have technicians who are less known, usually out of their homes or even will travel to someone's house. But they work alone and have long lists of clients so it's hard to get appointments. Which is why I'm learning how to take care of my own on UA-cam lol
@@m.robinson8497 I agree...im in SE WI, and most salons are Vietnamese etc here too. What really grinds me is they do no sanitation at all! And the salons tend to be a little dirtier. A real salon is a dream, but always booked up weeks out...for the same price these other salons charge!! I do a pedi about every 3-4 months, but that's it. No more drills, overfiling, etc on me! I'm going to do my own nails , the safe ,healthy way...with no MMA
Her nails are so pretty and I’m glad that she has them a little longer than a lot of your clients but she really deserved to have a gorgeous set of nails and you did it as always
When I first started using the e-file. I found adjusting my speed doing cuticle work helped A LOT. I used poly gel and did a short set w/ dual forms. As it grew out I just kept it filled and short til it grew out. I was bad about doing fills too soon. So I bought a practice hand so I could play more and give my hands a rest. It also help me see me mistakes as they grew so I could correct them when I filled/filed my set the next time.
Thanks for sharing, Della! True. Practice hand is such a great way to do some extra learning
Such a great reason to get a practice hand!
I wish nail techs were gentle on nails like you. You take proper care for your clients.
So many clients who did their own during lockdown coming in with rings of fire 🔥 ....amazing video
You're truly the best tech on you tube! I appreciate your channel as a diy beginner for my own nails!
I just did very short nails over my overfilled nails are they’re healing nicely. I was scared to do it at first thinking I would make the damage worse but the pain was unbearable, they feel so much better now.
When I’ve felt with “rings of fire” I actually use soft gel full cover nails. It seems to protect them better and less heat sensitivity. The full cover allows them to grow out better. But hard gel is my second choice.
Great 👍 video as always. Your videos have upped my nail game by a ton Thank you!!
The very first time I did my nails I over filed them with a hand file because I thought I still had product up by the cuticle to try and get flush with the cuticle if that makes sense. So I had a ring of fire closer to the cuticle than your client did when she came in to see you. And waiting for it to grow out was torture because I didn't want to damage it more by putting more product on it right away. But once I learned how to e-file when I got it in the mail I haven't done it since. I've even learned how to do the dry manicure without the ring of fire as well because of watching you. I wish I would've watched your videos first before I just dove right in and started doing my nails when covid started. Because I would've saved my nails the torture lol. Thank you for everything you teach and show us. It's much appreciated! I love your work as well. I could watch you work all day! 😊❤️ By the way these turned out gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing, Marie!
@@Nailcou No problem. 😊
Last year I was dipping like crazy during quarantined. Then I jumped on the Poly Gel wagon and also got an efile. Boy, was that a mistake! I have always had pretty nails, and have been great at doing my nails but, Poly gel and that efile ruined me. Well, I ruined my nails. I suffered with super thin nails with deeply pitted areas on my nails from being inexperienced. Now, I stick strictly with a rubber gel base and gel polishes. My nails are back to being healthy again. It was a rough lesson. After watching your videos I enjoy doing an “at home” Russian type of manicure without my efile. Lol
I just ordered a polygel kit. Never used them before. Does polygel ruin nails or just the e file?
Im glad you got your nails healthy again!!!
@@starbright8118 Hi! I would have to say that I ruined my nails due to lack of experience. I was ok with the lily gel but the efile was what did me in. I am sure it was a combo of speed and bit choice. I am sure you will have better luck than I!!! I stick to hand filing now. Lol
Good luck!! Let me know how it goes 💜
@@DIYNailsBySt ok thank you for your reply :) im useing glue on ones right now till i have the time to sit down and use the polygels. I use a handfile. When i went to nail tech school almost 20 years ago they only taught us with handfile. Ide probably try e file with acrylics but i dont mind just useing handfile. Just need to get a cpl real good handfiles from sallys beauty supply and they work great.
@@DIYNailsBySt my real name is Stacy too lol. Just spelled different.
@@starbright8118 i am a qualified tech and believe me i have gave myself rings of fire when i first started using it 😂 but i found poly gel is actually quite good just remember that it’s much softer than acrylic so you really need to be careful when filing it.
I use a 180/240 buffer to go over top and around cuticles and a 240 file to shape side walls and edges but be gentle as it can file away quickly 😊
Watching from my military bunker. Thank you for keeping me entertained in these difficult times!☺
ThNk you for your service!!!
Thank you for your service 🙏🏼🇺🇸
Thank you for your service 💪🥰
I love you 😍 just from watching your videos I went from over filing like that to looking like a nail tech did my nails. I haven't started school yet. Thank you.
First time I have done my nails I have over filed them with a nail file, thinking that I had to remove all the product aggressively. What a big mistake! My nails that were already sensitive and thin became even thinner and with weird shape around the sides. Now they have grown and look much better and I have learned how to file them with an e-file without traumatize them. When you learn the hard way! Thank God they grow back! These nails are gorgeous!
watching you do nails is so hypnotizing and satisfying and the results are always so beautiful
When I first started doing my own nails, I was certainly over-filing them. It was hard to overcome because I have a bad habit of picking at my skin, especially my cuticles. So, when it came to letting them grow out, I would have a hard time not picking at the "ridge" between my healthy nail and my damaged nail. I've found that the best product for over-filed and damaged nails is acrylic. I feel like it gives me the hardness I need because my nails are naturally very bendy. I like to use gel too, but mostly just for overlays on healthy nails.
Thank you again for your amazing videos. Out of all the great nail techs on UA-cam, you certainly have the most amazing range. Acrylic, hard gel, soft gel, polygel... you do EVERYTHING! If I ever get to visit Russia I would love to have my nails done by you.
Oh my gosh, my nails HURT looking at this. I’ve had this happen to me and “ring of fire” is quite apt. It hurts. It hurts soooooo much. I actually remember just doing regular nail polish because it stung so much. The thought of curing and heat spikes made me cringe.
You are so talented Anastasia! This set is stunning. I love how one side appears to have alot of glitter and the other side does not. So gorgeous.
You're a great educator! I just love your videos.
Thank you, Kathi!
I'm a gel tech too. I use both poly gel and hard/builder gel. But I prefer the builder/hard gel. I get less lifting when I use it.
I always see your short brushes when using your primer and base coat… I’m wondering which brand that is?? I love the idea of small brushes!
Oooh they're so beautiful Anastasia and I agree I prefer the polygel hand better as well...I'm betting your client is very happy with how her nail's feel and look now...thankyou for sharing stay safe xo 💜💅💜
I am amazed at how easy you make it look to form the nail with a brush and a form! I have tried to do this so many times, but can never get it right. It comes out lumpy or weak or won't stick or won't cure. Your just fantastic!
I absolutely love this look!❤️
It’s really feminine, simple and elegant!
I love your explanations and going into detail about reversing the efile so you can do either side of the nail! ❤️
I used to overfile my nails all the time.. Watching your videos(and practice) has helped me improve my technique
Love everything about her nails!!!
Absolutely gorgeous
This mani is beautiful!
Hey, I really love your videos and Ive seen alot of them, this not a hare comment but the hyponychium is the skin under the free edge. Hyponychium is the skin-free edge of the nails. It is located at the distal end of the nail bed, just below the fingertips. As a barrier against germs and dirt, it prevents external substances from entering the nail. The skin in this region also contains white blood cells that help prevent infections.Hope you have a great weekend 😊❤️
These are gorgeous and I love the way you did the cat eye
“D” stands for dimensions. 3D is three-dimensional, 7D is seven dimensional, etc. it just means, (in nails), that the light is reflecting off of that many points, giving a more dimensional look. 50D seems crazy, but you know how marketing can be.😂
Absolutely Gorgeous
Your videos on these issues are always so helpful!
Both look gorgeous.
I was hoping for a side by side comparison 😍😍 gorgeous set you made such a difference in her nails I hope she continues with you!
So beautiful!
I love how detailed and educational your videos are. I know nothing about nail extensions and just got my first set of soft gel extensions a few days ago. Watching your videos helps me learn what is the proper way of application and what to expect as a client. Your transformations are awesome. Thank you and happy holidays!
I really love this design! It’s simple but so nice 🥰
I just wanted to leave a message that I am always thankful for your education 🙏💕
I learned so much from your vids.
Love from SKorea 💖
You are amazing Anastasia👍🏽🥰
Am I the only one who doesn't see any difference between the hard gel and the polygel nail set at the end? They're both awesome and I'm loving that ombre glitter!!
I really enjoy watching your videos!!! Your explanation is clear and concise. Thank you so much! Greetings from Argentina :)
I love polygel hand as well 💜 and I gotta get that cateye polish somehow. Btw, I've noticed that you don't have adds ib your videos. Why? You could really make money through them. If anyone deserves to have a monetized channel, I think it's you. The information you give us is priceless. I love your videos, and as soon as I see you uploaded, no matter the time of the day, I have to watch it.
Thank you for showing this. I'm new to e-filing and I have that ring of fire on a few of my nails.
You made those nails look beautiful ❤️ tysmfs 😉
I have honestly learned the most from your channel! Much gratitude for providing brilliant, informative and extremely useful content 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

You are so talented i love watching your videos. I am self taught got 6 years with acrylic now i want to try hard gel and poly gel thanks to you 🤗
Thank you so much! Go for it!
Gorgeous job 😉👍
Stunning
once again I so needed this video tonight. I don't use electric drill on myself, but I did over file with hand files.
That is pretty cool!
Thanks for this video!
I have worked on my own overfilled nails, I feel like I had better results with hard gel.
That is so gorgeous 🥰
I just love ur videos!
Cool Nails.
That looks so cool 😎😍 I think I like the hard gel hand best
Great work 👍
🙌🙌 lovely!
Anna's nails are beautiful
Love them 💖❤️♥️
Hi, for me, the best ways to do extention on damaged nails are 3 : 1 acrylic, 2 dip powder or 3 fiber extension.
My clients keep it 3 to 4 weeks even with damaged nails. Thanks for you videos 😇
I always go for a gel product with a rubber base for overfiled nails, but more recently I grab my Japanese potted soft gel. I prefer to do overlays on overfiled nails rather than extensions, though, to minimize chances of lifting or breakage.
Beautiful! I really would love to get a set of those nails. You really are very talented!!
Thank you so much!
I love it
I loveeddd it
PRETTY 💕😍🥰
A vertical glitter ombre with cat eye gel is so smart!
My husband has a problem nail. Doctor says the problem is where the nail originates under the skin, a big crack that runs vertically from cuticle to tip.
I find hard gel to give him the strength he needs there (if not it cracks and breaks off) but lately I've been using Vitagel with good results.
So pretty! I love the shape of these. I'm wondering how thick these nails are
Know matter what u use for nails there always so beautiful 🤩 xxxx🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️💅🏻💅🏻🔥🔥
I did this to myself. So I use a builder gel in a bottle to help keep them hard and let it grow out
You are great! Question when you say hard gel ...compared to using polygel on other hand, are you talking about acrylic for the hard gel or what do u use exactly??
Hi I'm new here and love how easy you make it look 😊
Can I ask what polygel did you use please 🙂
Grazie ,era molto utile 🙏👍❤
When I first began getting acrylic nails, which was a good 25 years ago, there were a lot of small nail salons everywhere in my area. They were cheap, fast, and took all walk-ins. They used an actual DREMEL, with a SANDING DISC and believe me, they burned our fingers all the time. I must have been really motivated to have long nails. But once the acrylics came off, we all had those painful half-rings from them smoothing the area near the cuticle.
I haven’t gone to a nail salon in years, but I see they have come a long way.
This used to happen to me all the time every time I got fill ins for acrylics. I complained and was told it was what had to be done and that I simply had nails that were too thin. And several salons said something similar. So I stopped getting anything done to my nails. Imagine my surprise when I see this and learn that it was never supposed to happen. I knew I was right
I enjoy your bits of information. 3 of my nail beds have been over filed, and now very hard to grow. I would love to lose fake nails and have mine heal. What’s a great recommendation?
too cute
I do my own nails and I was overfilling at first ☹️😂 now I’m gentle and take my time . I avoid e file on my natural nails to be safe . But luckily mine was never too bad that looks painful
Veri nace job
I rather the hard gel look . I find it alot more flattering ♥️
Those look beautiful! One thing those, I recently learned that nail techs are only allowed to push back the cuticle and its illegal at least here in the states to cut or trim the eponychium. I'm uncertain where you're located so unsure if this applies to you. But if you are in the states are you worried at all about possible legal consequences for doing that? Especially since you video record it. Thanks!😊
Yay! Im early this time! Btw I love your voice ❤️🥴
Same hard gel always with damage best adhesion I find.
i did over file my nails and it was so painful they were thin and sensitive so i learned to take of first layers of products with e file then use hand file which way safer
I do not think there is a difference between 3D, 4D, 7D etc. I think it's just a marketing ploy.
Love the nails !
Thanks, that's what I thought :))
I was wondering what the difference was as I couldn't see one when looking at them :/
I love your content its all really educational thank you Anastasia xoxo stay safe
I think the difference is the size of the glitter in the polish.
@@1AmMarissa that could be it too!
Beautiful job love the polygel set the most ! 💕💗💕
i love how you can fix every situation for any nails! i am only new to this channel but i can tell you are professional.also i have tried so much to stop biting my nails, do you have any suggestions to help stop? if not its okay!
I bit my nails for more than 10 years a d what helped was to get a very short hard gel or polygel extension that was thick enough i couldn't bite it, and never having my nails "naked". After several months the urge to bite my nails is totally gone and even when my nails are natural (no product) i still don't bite them
The first time I went to a salon in years, they over filed my nails. Then the overlay lifted the next day 😭 I haven't gotten my nails done since. I'm happy to do them at home.
My nail bed is really short, so when nail grows out, the free nail is long however the nail isn’t past the end of my finger. Is there a way to give the illusion that my nails bed extends almost to the end of finger, like this models nail bed?
Thank you very much for your time and all the great tips you offer in your videos!
