@@kooky434 you're welcome!!
This was great! I have been wondering about it as chrome is crazy right now!! Thank you for doing this video!!❤
You're welcome!! Yes chrome is the thing right now. My clients wanting isolated chrome and short on time made me go figure out what works in the shortest amount of time
The best video I have come across for someone learning how to use these exact drill bits. Thank you for explaining these all so well!!
@@raspberryhearts7581 You are very welcome! Thank you for watching
Thank you for all of this! Every word is true (especially investing in yourself and your products x) This was such a fabulous video ☺️🌸☺️ Edit: I’m in my second year as a Nail Tech and am struggling to build clientele . Many dropped off during his year unfortunately due to financial constraints 😢
I'll make another video to give you ideas of what to do. I've done some unconventional things to get clients. I don't work full time as a tech. But I could especially doing pedicures
PS. Thank you so much for watching!!
I miss your nail content so much! You always present so much knowledge and your content is funny. Thank you 😊
I'm coming back! The man has had me in a grip at the gig!! But, I'm fitting it in!!! Thank you for watching. I truly appreciate it.
I be seeing you on yn twitch channel
That's me!! How are ya?
Thanks so much for this, I really learnt from you today I finished nail school about a year and half now but I am still scared to do some design for clients
I'm coming with a video to talk about that! I'm not the best at hand drawn designs. But I can do simple lines, stamp, stickers and 3d!
Oh, it helps if you're honest. I tell them up front it won't look like that. I can give my interpretation. I'm building my skill. We can build together.
Let me know what you'd like me to review next!!
Thanks queen :)
You're welcome!!!
This helped a lot. I was struggling with how to break up gold and silver leaf for my wood/resin projects. Thank you

Thank you for your time spent helping us beginners. Your personality is sweet and your humor is uplifting! 😊

Thank you for this! I learned alot.
I'm so glad it helped!! Thank you for watching
Been eyeing this lamp for months. Thank you! Just ordered two black lamps today, I saw they were back in stock.🙌🏽
They're pricey. But they cure everything. Haven't had any issues. Hope you like yours
I love the dvok zero gel. It's great for me, and I'm definitely not a professional, lol
I love how there are high quality products available for everyone
Thank you for explaining this in a succinct manor. I've tried to watch several other videos and I can't even make it to the end because they're just rambling about stuff that doesn't even relate to the bit but more knowledge around the process of doing nails if that makes sense. Thank you for keeping it to the point. I have these exact bits and a few others that came with it. Some of them are white and a couple have weird shapes. I'm not quite sure what to do with those but maybe I'll figure it out. Thank you
I'm working on a new video that will explain more about all the bits. The white bits are ceramic bits. They're best used for gel polish and gel removal. Some people do use them for acrylic and polygel removal. I've found the metal or carbide bits remove the product faster.
Thank yiu🎉😂❤🖤👑💯
You're welcome 🤗!!!
Would you show us how to pull the cylinder but towards yours on the Big Toe and other toes? Please! The international instructor never took his time to show me the technique but made sure I was book smart enough to pass the test to be licensed.
**Bit**
Are you asking me to show you how to efile your toes? If so o, yes
I'm an old Manicurist 2004 never used a drill b/c only do natural nails and I do everything by hand, this is so helpful thank you.
You're welcome! Be gentle. go slow. It'll help you have more time in the career.
First time using a drill, came in the mail today. And i’m doing my nails w your vid. Thankyou, cus without u idk how i would get by rn. And i’m new 💛
@@lillianperrine60 Awww! I'm glad to hear that! Welcome to the nail world. Take your time. Don't press down too hard. And make sure to be patient. You're on your nail journey! It's a journey not a race. It takes time.
Hey 🤗 I always love how you describe products and proper use. Thanks for sharing 💅🏾💕
Thank you lady!!! I always appreciate your support😊😊😊😊!!!!!
Girl we are united as women! The beauty journey is universal, be it a struggle or a free fall, this is a road we walk ❤️ together
@@AshleighJane-nd2qx Seriously! If we were kinder to each other. Or, at least remembered what it was like to start brand new, maybe we wouldn't have so many miserable Mary's out here trying to brow beat everybody.
Sucked in a paper towel wtf does that even mean?
@@selltheworldgames the suction through the hose sucked in the paperwork I was wiping my brush off on when doing an acrylic set on a client. Didn't affect it working. I did open it up and took out the papertowel.
Thank you, great video! Only one I've seen that suggests seasoning or smoothing the bits, which is so useful! What about the other bits that come with the file? Mine has a disc and several white bits which I think are carbide?
My rule of thumb is if the edges feel rough, season them! Thank you for watching!!
Thank you, but you've misunderstood my question. It was about the other bits that come in the pack with the e file - do you explain those anywhere? Do you have another video? @@thenailauthority
@@ellincoetzee8900 Can you send me a pic of the bits you're referring to on IG? It's thenailauthority_ If I don't have a video, I'll make a quick one for you.
@@thenailauthority thank you 😊
Tanks so mach diyr
You're very welcome!!
I love the gold bottles ❤❤❤
@@Inamin81 They are from Medusa Nails. They have really good hard gel polishes that don't chip on my clients. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Where’d you get the clear drawer ??
@@Inamin81 it came from a company called the Beauty Box. They unfortunately went out of business 2 years ago
I don’t understand how filing the sides of nails after you’ve already used the chrome powder?? If anything I’d think that would make it last for less time.??
@@underrated5210 the best way to explain it is that you break the seal on both sides that are smooth. By roughing them up, then applying the top coat and protein bond, you give the edges something to hold on to. Helps it stay on
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.
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.
Im not even a nail tech n i have at least 20 on my nail desk! ,!!!
I swear it's an obsession! Plus, they all do different things. Some keep the white on a pink and white, white! Others go well over soft gel. It just never ends! Gives me excuses to buy just a few more.
You are NOT alone lol
Ahhhhh in good company!!!
So glad to see you back. Thank you for the time you spent to make this informative video.
You are welcome. And thank you for taking time out of your schedule to view my video! Have Great one!!!
Thank you so much for this video! I only do my nails and I have learned so much from you on this channel and when you answer our questions on Twitch.
You are so welcome! I'm happy to help wherever I can.
Very very informative video!! Great job!! Love the Tammy Taylor stick on files!!!! And of course YN
Thanks so much! I appreciate the well wishes!!
Just got into Gel X and let me say, your video was a LIFESAVER! Whenever I'd look for forums or instruction on using the "cheaper" bits, people would go on and on about how "you shouldn't use...too low quality..." But I refuse to spend big bucks on a e file/bits until I'm certain this method is for me! Thank you for your clear explanations and showcasing the affordable stuff!
You are very welcome! Until you know this works for you, it's good to start with what you have. Glad the video was able to help you out.
This! Can you tell us, should those diamond bits be the ones to use on your natural nail? I have to do a fill and I just want to make sure I understand so I don’t wreck myself! Lol
Are they quite ? Or loud ? When it’s on ?
It's kinda loud. But not so much that you can't hold a conversation. I love how they suck up the dust
My gosh I’m so happy I found your review I have just bought this exact starter kit I’m a beginner and you just helped me out so much!! I was practicing on my husband last night and wondering why it’s not really taking much off !! I had my efile too low for these starter bits. I’m about to practice on myself today removing my nails and doing a fresh new gel manicure. I’m ordering me some better bits! Thank you again my dear 😁😁👍👍love and Godbless
You are so welcome! I'm happy it helped you. Make sure not to press down too much. If you need to press down a little much, it means the bit is dull & you need a new one.
you are soooo adorable!! I love you girlie!! I would love to have you as a friend, you personality is absolutely astonishing!! ❤
Aww thank you. I try to stay a generally happy go lucky person. Life has thrown us all into the boo boo pool at times. But, you can get up stronger and sell manure! I appreciate you taking the time to respond. It means a lot to me
This is brilliant thank you. I have just purchased this exact nail file and needed this information 😊
You are welcome!!
Thankyou for your video very informative 😊
You are very welcome! Thank you for watching!!
Also I LOVE ALL OF YOU JOKES! You have a GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR 💯😊
Aww thank you!! I appreciate you watching!!
Thank you , I was wondering though which bit would be best to blend the nail tip to natural nails before the acrylic? 🙏
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
Not me sitting here with the same set. Thanks Sis.
You are so welcome
Thank you for the very informative video, it helped a lot!!! But I wonder, what is the best way to clean the bits? Thanks?
I use a wire brush that I get out the hardware section of the dollar store. Thank you for watching!!
Is there a video without the acrylic nails? I don’t wear acrylics but just want to clean out around my cuticles.
I can do one for you
Yes! I’d appreciate that. Thank you
I cannot get the drill bit on I don't understand why
Do you have IG where I can troubleshoot with you?
Thank you so much. You were super detailed and how to use each bit. I just subscribed and I can’t wait to see more of your videos. I just purchased my new E-File, liquid gel, brushes, nails and a whole bunch of fun goodies. You are absolutely amazing. Thank you and I will be watching more videos.
Aww thank you! I'm so glad it helped you. Thank you so much for watching
Thank you so much ❤
You're very welcome! I appreciate you watching
Honestly this was one of the most helpful videos to date! Thank you! ❤
You are very welcome! Glad it helped
Amazingly helpful. I appreciate your video as a scared beginner! :)
I appreciate your video so much! There is much to learn! And, I have a nail dream too😊
