Watched this video two days ago, I applied your filing technique and it completely changed my work, my nails turned out PERFECT, my client noticed the difference..Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge❤
Chabs Bar 👏💓
I can’t believe you are teaching us for free!! Learning so much from you 😊
right!
God is good❤
When filing the natural nails, I’ve heard some conflicting information from RUclipsrs that aren’t professionals. Do you need to file in a single direction or file toward the middle of the nail to prevent fraying? Also, what are the opinions on ceramic and glass files for natural nails?
One direction
Aslynn Wetzel: not all glass files are equal. Use etched crystal like Germanikure. They are a game changer. Most are sprayed with sand and extremely poor quality. Germanikure will last you for life if you don't drop them.
I do agree to use a new file for each service but why are clients so reluctant to pay the right value of a service? I tend to see that people do want gorgeous nails but they're not willing to pay the right price.. and files are not that cheap in the end..
Throwing away a nail file maybe costs $0.85/service so it shouldn't drastically effect your overall service price. I will be doing some pricing videos soon. :)
Your so right about reluctant clients . But once your clients dont question your pricing I find. Those are the clients that appreciate a good quality set of nails. Those gaggles are always looking for a bargain. Education in this field is not cheap nor is the passion we instill in our work . Stay positive. Our work speaks for our education and quality of service we give.
...Remember theres always room for improvement in nails hust as Liz shows us in everyone of her videos. Love her to peace.
My regular, and favorite manicurust of all time, (I moved to another state and had to stop going to her😔) had each client purchase a kit that was kept at the salon, with our names on the case, and in a locker. I Loved knowing that my nippers, files, etc hadn't been used on other clients, and were safe. She even disinfected them, and returned them to our cases, while we were still in the salon drying our nails. We just paid for replacements as needed. I think that all salons should implement this way of handling tools, if their clientele is that which would support the initial investment. Try that.
@@shirleybridge7027 Agreed. Getting services done that include sharp objects that can injure you, or other tools that may pass disease, are Definitely not the place to be cheap and/or skimp on safety. THAT I'll pay for!
You're acting as is they're glass nail files. 🙄
Ive been using a new file on each client for the last year and the state that I live now require to toss and not sanitize/disinfect ... it does make a nice improvement and clients do notice when you toss the stuff away in front of them ... loving these lessons tutorials that you are doing think it helps new techs and the old timers per say lol
You are so gorgeous! I so see you on TV in a serious murder mystery drama or a really satire comedy sitcom!!! I found you through Suzie nail career - she taught me everything about how to prep natural nail and apply dip powder now I am getting into gel and you are the QUEEN of gel so super excited about all your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for such valuable information, I've been a Nail Tech for 22 years, I'm watching your videos and every time I learn something new. I love how you explain in great detail and so calm. The Nail Hub is a must for every Nail Tech, newbies and masters.
Thank you so much I can’t wait to do my next client and now I know where the noch is coming from thank you so much.
I am learning so much from you! Again, not a nail tech, but very interested in all of this. Thank you! Plus, you have a beautiful smile!
Also, as an RN, I appreciate your care about cross-contamination!
She has a beautIful smile and she speak so well
I'm gonna leave this here so maybe it'll help with understanding grits
Think you have the same surface and on one you have to lay 100 rocks one next to the other and then you have to lay 180 rocks one next to the other
So thinking about it will there be smaller rocks in the first or the second situation? Of course on the second so that means the grit will be finer
And in the situation with 100 rocks (the 100 grit) it will be coarser/grittier
WOW, I am so grateful to you for sharing this important information! I am a nail technology student and I needed help with learning about the grit number & textures, and which sides should be used on natural or enhanced nails. Also, how to PROPERLY hold the file. You shared far more than what I understood, omg, it is SOOO HELPFUL!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH. I even appreciate the advice you gave about including the files into the cost of a service as a result of excellent qualities nails. When I gain customers I want them to feel valued and very well taken care of and healthy. I feel sooo much more confident now to use hand files. I cannot thank you enough, this blew my mind. God bless you. You've gained a new subbie!
Yes, I agree with @lizsbeautychannel! Would really like to know how costs are calculated!
This video was very helpful and welcomed. I look forward to more!!
Also can you discuss nail tips? What materials to stay from (If there are any) well-less vs full well vs half well. Any reason to use one over another?
Great idea, LaClaire S 👍; I too would be *really* interested in a video in those subjects 🤔 x
I agree, both of the topics that you propose are great ideas😋
Cost calculation videos are coming. :)
This helped me out a lot! I always thought the smaller the number the smoother, and when i ordered i was confused that 100 was so rough vs my 180 grit
1. Grit : texture on filer or buffer
2. Disinctible :
3. Emery board
Files :
Thinner called emery board. Made of wood. One time use. Used to reach tight areas as they are thin.
Spongy foarmy material. More flexible. Netween buffer and emery board.
Moon file: same as spongy one.
Better to do curve surfaces around cuticle areas.
Diamond files : same amery board but thicker.
Buffer :
Block buffer and etc.
180 is standard grit number.
I’m not a nail tech but this is informative. I usually go to an Asian owned salon and I know that reuse nail files. I’m going to look next time to see if they are sanitizing them.
Well, no wonder I've been cutting my side wall when filing my nails! I now know for my next new file. I also wondered why I was getting those notches on my natural nails, so now I know. This was a really helpful video! Files are more complicated than I ever imagined. You didn't cover what a Zebra file is though, and I see that mentioned a lot on nail supply websites.
Just as a little FYI, the moon shape is widely called the harbour bridge shape in Australia (they have the same shape as Sydeny Harbour Bridge). I buy all my files from Aussie shops so I honestly didn't know it was called the moon shape.
Wow Liz, thank you. So many new nuggets u showed today. Could u do a video to elaborate how to incorporate our services and items into our cost. How to charge. I remember seeing somwhere where u showed how to measure gels to estimate our job cost.
LIZSBEAUTYCHANNEL - I believe it was in a podcast. I remember hearing it and then spending the time to figure out what my cost was in product while I was in school. Check those and I’m sure you’ll find it. I would love a video that shows it instead of just explaining, like this one. That would rock!!
That is coming. ;)
I WISH EVERY ONE HAD YOUR BRAINS LIZ AT THE SALONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are no good nail techs in my area, they are all family owned by Asians and they care not of the quality of their service because they are all about quantity over quality. I'm learning a lot about why my nails were in such poor condition after about six months. I am now doing my own nails, thanks to you, and very happy with my nail condition and appearance !
Oh man... I am so thankful for RUclips, I literally can’t think of anything better than having Celina teaching you cool gel aplication techniques and designs AND have Liz teach you everything there is out there to be known about quality in your services and how to bring them to a new level or how to really make that business work and bring it to the top ALL IN ONE PLACE.
That being said... thank you SO MUCH Liz for taking the time to do this and putting all your knowledge out there for people all around the globe.
Greetings from Chile♥️🇨🇱
That trainer hand is just creepy. On another note, thanks for the video I was really in need of this.
Haha yes it is a tad creepy but they are great for practicing and very realistic.
I just started to learn about Gel nails this pass summer, and your videos is a real gem. Just ordering some supplies that i can use only on my self for now, till i learn. I am like making a notes here lol. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much teach for free this i so use full for me
I’m a YT tech, learned everything online and I LOVE the moon style because it gets all up in the cuticles. Classics make me want to cry(and then I just go get mtly efile.
You are a great teacher. Have you done a video telling us what to expect with a manicure and gel nails? Think it would really helpful for those who are clients. Thank you so much.
I discovered your channel through your collaboration with Nail Career Education, and first I would like to thank you so much for all the information you put on your youtube channel. I'm by no means a professionnal and am caring / polishing only my own nails, but I'm very interested on how all this works, how products or nail files affect our nails etc
On the subject of the video, and with your opinion on throwing away nail files after each service, I would like to ask your opinion on Crystal / Glass nail files, but maybe more for a personnal use (I know Nail Career Education gave her opinion saying she doesn't often use them, except in some very specific scenarios) ? Do you like them or not ? Do you think they are a good recommendation for personnal use or not ?
Thank you for the time you put into your videos !
Hi Abby. Thanks! For salon use crystal and glass files can be a backup option, but for personal use they are great. They can also be sanitized properly and are a great option for natural nails.
Well you never seize to amaze me with your teaching skills.I can listen to you for an hour without feeling blank.I am super proud to say I knew mostly all the tips except for the part where you said wrongly filing can damage the shape or structure from underneath the nail .I notice now I did that a bit at times without realising.From now on I will be more aware.Thank you.I appreciate your wonderful service. I look forward to many more lessons. One can never stop learning in this world.
You just helped me figure out why I broke a nail this week lol. I have natural long nails and have been trying to shape them into the coffin shape and created notches on the sides of some of them. I had gone too far on the side where the break happened and weakened it. Thanks so much for these great videos, I’m excited to learn more to perfect my own manicures (I’m not a professional but I’m sure thats clear lol) 😊
Are all file numbers safe to use for a natural nail?
The lower the number the more grit. I recommend you don't go lower than 180 (in number) on natural nails. 180-240 is ideal. Anything grittier should be used on product only.
Thank you for showing what you know with filing and buffing. Really appreciate. Will be doing all.
Wow thank you so much
BEST VIDEO EXPLAINING ABOUT THE NAIL FILE!!! 😍😍
Oh no.. I hope Susie’s (From NCE) Nail files are not made from wood.. They are a bit expensive (when you include the S&H). They need to be durable and long lasting for that price.
I can not thank you enough. You have a special and informative channel. i did not get all these informations even when i paid for it! I love you and thank you always, you deserve likes and shares for your channel. I think this is all free on RUclips so what about your paid courses! It must be amazing, by the way, do you have online courses? i would not miss it if there is one for sure.
Love that you talk about protecting the clients finger.. had someone cut my eponychium* with a drill bit & blamed me for moving my hand when I definitely did not move my hand at all! Wont be going back to that guy.
For doing your own nails, do you have any thoughts on metal or glass nail files? My nails tend to be on the weaker side & I've seen many people who use regular polish talk about how gentle they are but I want to know if they could be harmful? I've noticed that none of them seem to have any changes on whether my nails split or the amount of hangnails I get, but maybe I'm also just filing wrong?
What do you recommend for natural nails that peel at the tip? I feel like sometimes it’s caused because of the nail filer. Is there a nail filer that can be used to prevent the snagging and peeling?
What is your opinion on saving nail files and buffers for each client. Example you as a client get your own box with your name and your used file and buffer go into the box. As a new file or buffer is needed it gets replaced. But files and buffers get replaced every 2-3 services.?
I would also like to know what she thinks... :)
Evee Owens - in California you have to use a new file for each client, it’s one of the rules/laws I’m sure each state has its own directions. I use the Light Elegance files and they say disinfectable but I don’t. I tried once and it didn’t work properly afterwards. I’ve noticed that files just aren’t made to use over and over any more as well.
Do you notice a difference between the 1rst services and the others? I mean, does you file continue to do the job as you want to ? 🙂
NailFix&Chill when someone is getting a simple manicure and the file is barely used there is no difference in the first or second use. Usually after 2-3 uses depending on how much filing was done you do need a new file. Now for nail enhancements such as acrylics or hard gels yes there is a difference. But i do not hand file the shape i use my e-file i barely use files as is
Evee Owens ok thank you so much for your answer. I understand the differences 😄
I’ve filed from underneath and it never occurred to me why I was getting that ridge.
I thought maybe I didn’t put enough product on the side, especially with poly gel forms, but it was actually my filing that it created it.
Thank you so very much. I had actually walked out of a nail salon because she brought out a used nail file.
👏 as you should. Dirty nail files are unacceptable.
I'm a DIY'r and I've been filing my hard gel incorrectly on the side walls. I get notches and now I know why. Thank you Elizabeth for this video! ☺
There's one thing that bothers me about doing nails; it's the garbage waste. I get it that the files and implements have to be sanitary but it would be nice if they could be recycled some how.
L T yes, I was looking to see if anyone else had a question about the waste. It bothers me a lot but I don't see a ready solution.
I was thinking the same thing! They gotta invent recyclable files :D
there are files with sanitizable bases and replaceable abrasives! Hard to find though. I've seen stainless steel bases/handles. Theres different abrasive levels and thickness, so you can stick on the thinnest one to get close to the sidewalls or a spongey thicker one to not hurt a client. some even sell buffers that stick on. I think they might cut down on waste over the long run
Your videos are so informative and I’m learning a massive amount from you. I was have my nails “professionally” done but stopped because I wasn’t happy with the service I was receiving . Having watched your videos I can see now that I was right to be concerned about the service I got. Thank you for sharing all this information for free.
You look so much like Jo from Grey's Anatomy. It's crazy. Thank you so much for the tutorials. I've been diy'ing my nails, but they are soft and flat, and I'm struggling with lifting. I never have to soak them off because they just pop off after a few days, sometimes less. I have watched so many videos that I think have maybe given bad info, and I love you're explaining why you should and shouldn't do certain things. I have also been using Sally products, and I'm thinking maybe it's not the best option for my nails. Interestingly enough, their prep is blue, also. It says it's just alcohol and blue coloring. Why would they do that? So I'm going to try some of your products you recommended.
Revisiting nail fundamentals ……QUESTION Dec2021….how to address a misshapen nail when filing I.e. narrow base wider at the top. Do I try to keep the tip more narrow but not keep a straight sidewall ? This is a natural short mail with enhancements .
Hi. Sorry if I miss this, but how is file different from buffer when they have the same grit?
Hi a buffer is spongie and much more flexible than a file. You'll also notice that even though a buffer might say it is 180 grit, it feels a lot less rough than a file.
But are they used differently? What i currently know is a file makes the nail rougher and the buffer makes it smoother (then i got confused after learning buffers have grit too)
Thank you for this video basics are important. Looking forward to the next video cheers Australia🌺🐨
Ok so i start out with 180 filers on the edges and surface (to remove ridges)....then use the buffer to smoothen the roughness after filing....then i use the shiner on the surface.....this shiner is amazing....I'm a guy btw so i dont use nail extensions obviously...ladies can you lmk if I got this thing down...? Thanks
Great video! Thank you so much for all the info! I saw you with Susie, from NCE,
and just recently discovered your channel and I’m hooked! 👍🏻
Oh my god this video is my dream! I’m just happy that someone makes videos answering the crazy questions that I have in my head! This is so informative thank you!
What about Glass files????? 💅 💜 👍
Hi, great video. What about hand files at home when doing only my own nails.. is it ok to reuse them? And if so, for how long is ok to use one file?
Nobody explained ab files except you n even beauty School dont teaches us.Thank you.
I am only using nail files on myself. How do i know when to throw it away? I have a couple that are washable. So I washed them. They don't seem to be as good any more. I also have one that I can see brown in it. It still is usable but when do i know to throw it out?
Is there something else I can use to take my Polygel off my nails besides Acstone? This stuff if ruining my nails.
I love that you are teaching us some much with your videos, thank you so much Liz!!
I taught at beauty school & owned shop 20 yrs ago but sold it since I couldn’t handle too many clients & didn’t make enough for a living. Lately I was asked to work in a vietnamese shop as I’m still having license to discover how they really operates. Many technicians have no license even they can do a good job. Clients only see the colors but not the hygiene. They trained their own technicians & live their way.
Great Info❣️ I’m looking forward to all the videos in this new series. I’ve been learning things that weren’t taught so thank you! Guilty of those notches and I can see now the correct position for sidewalls. I’d love to see how you file different shapes. The one I struggle with mostly is almond shape. Can’t wait for the brush video too. I’m wondering how to maintain the brushes that use alcohol as a slip solution for polygels from drying out.
Again I agree with everyone how much we appreciate your tutorials, showing why we have different problems. You are correct when you say we are taught enough to get license but must more is involved. Thank you!
Thank you for all the tips and tricks .. Much appreciated... I really love your videos
I love your videos they’re awesome. I’ve learned so much from you. Thank you for everything you do.🥰
You mentioned that we shouldn't store a file for each client but you didn't further explain why. Could you elaborate?
Thank you so much! I learned so much! Love the terminology and the what to do and what not to do. I'm not a nail tech, I'm a nurse and I really appreciate the structure of your tutorials. I enjoy doing my nails and my daughter's nails, so this has been so great! Totally artistic and beautiful!
Don't throw things out, just give it to the client. Well like the block sponge buffer 😁.
What to do if cheap chinese gel touches your skin and tons of bumps erupt with severe burning sensation.
Thank you for your amazing tutorials, they have really helped me a lot! I have been doing nails since April of this year and I battle with tip application, blending & shaping. Please may you do an in-depth tutorial about how to apply a nail tip, blend it and shape it? That would be so great and help me SO MUCH! Thank you LIz!
Hi Tayla I will be getting into artificial nails soon.
Thank you so much, your vids teach me so much things we didn't go through in nail school!
Yes I toss everything after each client. Try and refine your process as even perfectionists can run out of money if their expenses outweigh their revenue. You really should only need one hand file and maybe one buffer per client.
Great video 💜. When I started practicing enhancements on my self last year I was guilty of unknowingly making notches in some of my nails. It was from a previous video of yours last year that I realized what I was doing! Now I'm practicing on family while going to school. I'm going to start turning the hand and doing the filing routine you went over. My questions are. Can you go over what grits to use on hard gel and acrylic. I like using 100/180 grit moon files on my hard gel. Is this too harsh? And what progression of grit files should you do. If you do a 180 file what grit buffer should you use? And where do you recommend to buy files. I know a lot of ppl say EBay or Amazon. But I question the quality. Thank you once again Your the bomb!
Sarah C maybe I can help with a few stuff dear.For gels she said no less than 150 grit . 100 would be too harsh for gel.
Actually think about it...if you are using the files only once then even if you find something on EBay that doesn't cost as much as the big brands but looks quite good then it's a good thing.Sometimes big companies just add their logo on the file and that's what you're paying for. I have used big brands and also files and buffers from Aliexpress and to be honest if you look at reviews first or you know how to spot quality you can't go wrong.You can find quality.I paid like 3.50 USD on Alliexpress for a pack of 10 180grit moon files.Give it a try:)
Hi Sarah 180 is perfect for gel and acrylic and I never buff afterwards because I need a gritty surface for my color or top coat to adhere to. Sounds like you're doing a great job with everything. There are lots of places to buy files. I personally like the Kokoist, Akzentz, and Light Elegance ones but you can also get them from beauty supplies. Ebay and Amazon are good too but they are usually more expensive than if you bought them in bulk from a reputable reseller.
+The Nail Hub thank you Liz! I hope I meet you one day at a trade show or class. My handle on Instagram is nailaddict13 and I think we are birthday buddies! Now I know why I think your so awesome 💜
Learned a lot from this video I was just wondering if you could do a video on glass files 💅
I was watching this again, and realized I am still curious about zebra files. How are they different from the others?
Zebra just has a different color and they are supposed to be "longer lasting" but they are the same as white, black, etc. You'll find similar grits and shapes. Zebra abrasive nail files are made with black silicone grit also and then coated with white zinc sterate powder. This substance acts as a lubricant to reduce heat from friction, keeps the filing dust from clogging in the grits and extends the life of the nail file. But in my personal experience the difference is almost unnoticeable.
Very informative. Thank you! ♥️
These are really great videos, where have you been all my life!?!
With short nails, do you go in right to the cutical area to shape the sidewalls or is it more for long nails?
sorry i didn't understand when you use it with hard gel at this particular point of the video 16:33
I wanted to know what camera do you use to record your videos? the zoom is super!
I was filing completely wrong really thank you. Very valuable demo.
I’ve been using a fileboard with disposable file grits, they now even have disposable buffers for the boards. Plus because they are stainless steel they are so easy to disinfect and the boards themselves are very inexpensive and the “files” come in packs of 50-100. They do also come in different shapes moon, pill, boomerang, and rectangle.
where do you buy these? have a hard time finding them with variety in shapes and grits
Omg I learn so much from you!! Question: did you do your nails you have on and was there a video for them? Your nails are just so beautiful!!
Yes I did, but sorry no I didn't film it. :(
Thank you so much. That was so helpful. I really needed to learn about the files. I'm so happy you did this.💗
hello! I am a new at home nail hobbiest who is trying to self taeach from your videos and others (like NCE) while I figure out if this is something I can physically do professionally or not (I have physical disabilities).
But my question is for myself, at home, how many uses should I get out of a nail file before I should toss? I’m just using it on myself only, I make sure to give my daughter her own so we're not sharing by accident
At home you can basically use a nail file as long as it has grit to file with. Once it loses grit (or if it gets dirty and gross) then toss it.
How do you feel about using an overhand grip? .. I see Greg from young nails preach it .. where do you stand on this technique ?
To each their own. Overhand for me and many techs is awkward and you can't rock the file as well. But everyone has a personal preference.
I was hoping you would touch on the type of file that is stainless with the replaceable grit stickers. And also metal diamond files.
Not a fan of the replaceable sticker files. They have very sharp edges that are hard to remove and they are awkward due to the plastic or metal core they are made of. They could be used for pedis or natural nail care but for enhancements I do not like them. Same goes for metal. Good for natural nails or pedis, but for filing on gel or acrylic they don't have enough flexibility and the grit is too flat.
Great explanation of all the different files👍🤗😊
Quick question, I’m a Newbie Mobile Nail Tech and I put my clients files into a labeled ziplock bag only used on them! So why did you say never store used files! I’m just curious? Thanks and I love your videos btw
I believe it's the ziplock bag that's the issue rather than the act of storing them. If you use a ziplock bag, you're trapping airflow and allowing/encouraging any pathogens that may be on the file to grow which can then cause bacteria/fungal infections if those files are used again later. If you're using and storing individual client files, I'd suggest paper envelopes that still allow airflow but keep the files seperate (that's what I do :) )
Pamela Jacobs - I hope she answers you and I want to give my 2 cents from my experience. I’m in California where they made the rule/law (I think it’s a law covered in the Business and Professions or Health and Safety codes) that says you can only use one file per customer. The salon owner where I am keeps a bag for each client for manicures and pedicures (she stores files, buffers and toe separators) and she told me the law here is ambiguous for it and the board rep that comes and inspects isn’t sure if it’s allowed or not herself but she doesn’t write them up for it. I’m a newbie and I’m afraid enough that I don’t do it.
Pamela Jacobs she said that the files lose some of their effectiveness after a service so re using may cause you to waste more time filing. Also an over used file will cause you to add more pressure when filing which causes heat and discomfort.
In my country to my alarm there is no rule whatsoever or people don't Check. I found mostly all the places i went to use unsanitised and unsterilized tools to my alarm...how did I know that?
Well the files were so dirty,old and were not performing well and when they were done with my nails they dumped the tools in a big box along with all their other tools and called it a wrap.Needless to say I now do my own nails even though I would have prefered being pampered.I figured it's pamper and get a fungus or not at all.
I have some tips if you care to have them.Maybe just ask your client.If she says re use a couple more times or depending how heavily used it is minus the cost of the tools off her next treatment. If not make sure she's paying for the tools each service.At the end of the day you're happy and your client is too.
Christina Matzen I hope she answers as well, I don’t keep anything that touches the clients feet that is all disposable! I’m very curious, I’m trying to be as clean as possible !
Pamela Jacobs Ditto!!!!
Which camera are you using for this clip?
Queenie u , here thankyou soo much this has help me lot I love it
What are your thoughts on crystal nail files?
I really really apreciate this playlist and the academy you building. You give us so much GGGood informations, big thank you for that. Watch you channel should be a duty for everyone 😅💜
Thanks for the love. Please share so we can help others! :)
I give my file to the person I used them on.
I have learned so many things from you..which is in fact very useful. I saved most of your vids so that I can easily find them when I need to refer something or refresh my memory. And I'm no nail tech but planning to become one soon. Thank you so much!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRETTY LADY! Thank you SO much for always providing such great and thorough education! 💗💗💗
Is there a difference between a 180grit file and 180grit buffer? Some website say it’s a nail file buffer. So confused.
Hithere I have a question, I am just starting out and I really want to use a fresh file each time for all the reasons you said. Are they recyclable? My concern is I am going down the entirely vegan route with my products, throwing away so many files doesn't feel great environmentally. Any tips or advice would be appreciated!
KOKOIST LOOKS BETTER MATERIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you explain what the Zebra terminology is? I either missed it or you forgot to talk about it. Thank you❤️
I LIKE THE MOON / NICE VIDEO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love your video!! I have a question. Is 240 the best one to finish dip nails. I mean like to smooth out any imperfections? Thanks!!
Your hair looks really pretty😊
hi, I have a question, would a 240/320 file be suitable for buffing and prepping the natural nail bed?
Love your videos btw!
Excellent everything. So detailed and informative about each file and block, how to prep, care, use and preventative methods. All I wanted to nd more.
What’s your pricing Liz? Here in Florida I only go to a nail tech that works from home and she usually charges me the same 50$ she does acrylic so I didn’t even know there was such a thing as hard gel. For me gel was just those opi polishes that sally sells. So I wanted to know how much it is or should be for a full gel service with extension and how much you would charge for fill in and design change?
Love your educational videos. Ty from the bottom of my heart. Especially for the 2020/21 epidemic. Would love to see a video on step by step of shaping an almond nail, ballerina nail etc. Ty again for sharing your skills and education.
Brand new nail file for every client.. this is the way supposed to be in every nail salon.. not everyone practice it. Especially when they are busy.. they take their own little basket of nail tools and jump to the next client.. I see this all the time.. Good health practice teaching ..
