E-File Hack 🤔 Should You Use A Dremel For Nails?

- Опубликовано: 9 июн 2021
- Why not use a Dremel? It's in the garage, it's a great power tool and it's cheaper than a lot of professional e-files, right? I compare an E-File vs Dremel for nail use, and break down the differences. Let’s get started😊

Omg!! 😂😂😂 My husband seriously bought me a Dremel for my nails for Christmas 2 yrs ago... It was huge. It came with all these different bits lol Oh my gosh I cracked up laughing. I love him so much. He was just trying to surprise me and give me an amazing gift. If I would have put that thing on me it would have ripped my nails off lol I mean even on low setting. lol I bet he paid $200 for that thing. I made him return it lol 😂🤣
Adorable story - what a sweet hubby for trying.
So funny 😂
I use mine with a flex shaft. I love it, but it takes time and effort to learn to use it. I would never use the dremel on it’s own. And I can use it for my other hobbies. I think it’s about habit and training . I guess it depends on usage and needs.
@@NailCareerEducation thats right! The though does matter the most
@@charisma-hornum-fries Yes! I use mine with the flex shaft too, the model i have goes down to 5000RPM and the flex shaft slows it down a little more, so it's safe to use on the nails
and i file tiny miniature figures, i'm sure as hell i can file my nails without going too hard on them
I use my old e-file as a Dremel🤣 so I went the opposite way haha x
oh perfect! this I was wondering too 😅
My podiatrist recommended I buy a Dremel drill to remove the calluses on my heels and the balls of my feet. I bought one (a small one, not the size you showed in your video) at WalMart for about $20 and used a medium grit sanding band. It works like a charm. Now I only have professional pedicures when I want some pampering. I have used it (long ago) on my nails but only on acrylic product, never on my natural nails. I can’t stress enough that Dremel drills come in much smaller sizes than you’re showing. I now use a professional quality e-file on my nails and would never recommend a Dremel for manicures because even the much smaller drills are heavy, but it’s a good tool if used wisely. I enjoyed your video. 😊💗
I too have a dremel. But it is very veery small and not really powerful.
I guess it is a cheap chinese alternative to a proper e-file.
I would absolutely not recommend for professional use but for me and just for me... it's quite ok. (but keep in mind it is small and pink and USB connected)
As a crafter, I've had a dremel (similar to the one in your video) for years. When the lock down hit & my salon closed, I had to get my waaaay outgrown tips/ dip off so I used my dremel. With the correct size collet, nail bits fit perfectly. When I realized it was going to be a long time before I could get back to the salon, I started watching your videos & learned how to do my own nails. Thank you, for that!! =) I've also since bought a real e file! I have to say, because I taught myself on the dremel, it was weird to go to a smaller e file but over a year later, I've gotten used to it & have gotten better at filing & nails, in general!
So glad you did this. I can't find small enough bits for wood carving so now I can buy nail flies bits for it
I love this comment so much 💞🤣
🤣🤣👏
It's because u have to unscrew it and change the little adapter under the head the bit goes in
The Dremel will fit multiple sizes
3:24. That piece on her table. That is what allows u to hold bigger or smaller bits
They do make a smaller crafting dremel easier to hold not nearly as big
If she had experience she would know that out of the gates. Not a fair comparison if you use one tool wrong and the other right
@@africanhistory yeah, I really wish she would have used the stylo+. This isn't really a fair comparison
@@africanhistory she must have used the dremel stylo +
@@rachelel9087 exactly
I work in a grooming salon and we use Dremels to grind down the dogs nails 😂
Do you use the attachment for it? Just curious.
@@charisma-hornum-fries Yes, I use the cyclindrical piece with the sanding disk band. I've never had the change the chuck on the inside.
I think most groomers use dremels for the nail trims. I on the other hand steal my efile and use sanding band to do my doggy’s nails lol
@@rhymeplans Hey, whatever works! As long as the nails get done :)
I use a Dremel on my dogs nails
I use a Dremel Stylo, it’s meant for crafts and much smaller, pretty much the size of the e-file hand piece. It works great, only drawback is you can’t change direction.
What you need is a good flex-shaft! It’s the modern equivalent of your machine from the 80s, only $200 and can do anything! They’re meant for jewelry making.
Agreed! I have the flex shaft and have used it to
Remove the bulk of my nail extensions before I soak. One thing is that if you do your own nails the direction on spin is different when you switch hands but you are correct it’s SO much better than using the actual dremel.
Just an FYI! I've used a Dremel for my sculpting, for years. I have an attachment that adds a small hand piece on a long "cable" (the Dremel hangs on a hook over my bench), with a collet that takes any size bit w/o an additional piece. I also added a foot pedal. I can now control my Dremel from VERY low to VERY high speeds. I am maybe a month into doing home nails, so I haven't yet tried my Dremel with nails, but I'm thinking I could, after purchasing manicure-appropriate bits. I LOVE your videos - you are so experienced, yet such a natural teacher - Thank You!
My Dremel came with a flexi shaft...much easier to use and hold at different angles, more shaped to be hand held. Stll not as small as an e-file would be, but usable.
**VIDEO REQUEST** Hi, Susie my mother and myself both do our own nails and have learned a tons from your videos. BUT! my mom is on her third nail drill.. Why do they keep breaking or dying on her? Can you possibly do a video on how to properly care for your nail drill please???!?!! Sincerely Loyal subscriber.
Probably nothing shes doing other than it cant keep up with her demand - im not sure how much she spent but cheaper efile often cant keep up with the use- a more expensive efile in the $200 and up range would be more powerful
she might be apply too much pressure and burning the motor
Is she using the ring provided on some bits to shield the inside of the hand piece from all the dust generated? If not, she may have a build up of dust in her hand piece and it may simply require cleaning. Unfortunately you have to send it out to be professionally cleaned but I’m told nail techs do it regularly to keep their expensive e-files running properly. 🤷🏼♀️
@@sherrywatson7347 i was wondering what that was for ! thanks
My dremel have a handpiece like a pen suzy🤗looks like a e-file handpiece to be honnest, i wish i was able to sent you a picture from it🥰
Mine too and I have one with a pedal plus a melody susie machine, I don't change the pedal one for anything
Mine does as well.
Also, there are different models. Mine has a slider for the speed similar to the e-file. Having only 4 discrete speeds like the one Suzie bought would be annoying.
I got that too! I have a big one like in this video and you can attach a smaller one. So you hang the big one with cords on a hook and have a smaller handpiece.
Me too! I use for work a Dremel, Dremel 3000 with a flex shaft and for change faster the bits I use chuck dremel, it’s easy, it’s not heavy and for hard work
Most Dremels have a dial, so you're able to get the perfect speed for one's specific needs. And with intricate work, most everyone uses the Flex Shaft attachment which gives the user precision control for delicate work. I think if you'd tested an electric variable speed Dremel with the Flex Shaft, you'd have been pleasantly surprised. 😁
Thanks for all of your videos. I really enjoy watching and learning from you! 💜
When I did hard gels myself, I used my dads chain saw sharpener to file down the length for YEARS. Worked pretty slick.
Always cracks me up when Suzie tosses her trash 🤣 📦 🗑
I can just imagine poor cameraman scooping it all up later off the floor 😂🤣😂
Thank you for such a wonderful video. Not too long, very detailed and well produced.
I have a Wen brand "Dremel" & have used it for 💅 purposes. The one I have, has a "Flex Shaft" with it, which extends the length & it's uses, in addition to not causing hand fatigue. I'm currently STILL new to nail stuffs & to woodworking, and I'm on a Small budget for hobbies. As a result, I purchased the "Wood/Metal- working" tool, to use for both hobbies. There's obviously a HUGE learning curve & it needs to be ran on a LOWER speed, so you don't destroy natural or other nails with it's strength. But I've found that I can use it for both, with the correct 💅 bits of course. Thanks for this video, as it's one of the ONLY ones I've found on this topic. I appreciate your channel & what you do! Thanks again! 💅🎈💅
Okay, I have a dremel to do my nails. It is way smaller than the one you are showing. It is still a little bigger and heavier than the e-file but it works well and goes from a 1-10. The 1 is super slow. You can buy hundreds of different bits to choose from. I only paid about 40 dollars at Lowe’s. I think it is fine for home use but not if your doing lots of nails.
I am happy to say I now own everything you have put out. I love them all! The hand cream in the manicure kit is a dream! I have both acrylic sets which I love. I bought the jewel dappen dish for myself and then bought a second one to give my nail instructor. I use the nail stands everyday to create nail art on my tips. I could go on and on about how much I love your products but I will stop myself. LoL I can't wait to see what you put out next. Thank you for all the lovelies you made and all your videos! I learn so much from you!
I've been using my Dremel (normally used for polishing the jewelry I make) before I got an e-file. I have the attachment ( flex shaft) and I use it all the time, which makes the Dremel comfortable for nail work as well. Also normally Dremels have a dial to adjust the RPM as well. The problem is- it only goes in one direction, so if I'm about to do my right hand it's hard and it slips off of the nail and cuts bad.
Would be very interested to see you test a Dremel 4000 with the Flax Shaft attachment. While I can’t speak toward legal liability, I would be very interested to see you test one of the more quality Dremel offerings that has a variable speed controller and a smaller, more comfortable handle attached by a flexible cable where the motor is separated from the attachment. I would be interested to see if you found it to be more palatable, and more comparable to decent e-files.
The Dremel handpieces are very light and small and you hang up the main unit so you get a lot of flexibility. My handpiece is smaller and lighter than my efile. It's intended for people who use them for hours on end for engraving etc. There are also much better dremels, with completely adjustable speed.... in which case I think it almost works like that old dental drill you used to use, Suzie. There are also very fine and delicate bits you can get, again for engraving. So you're really only comparing the cheapest dremel. The only thing I think an efile offers is that it still gets to a lower speed than the dremels I have experienced. Maybe the super expensive ones can go very slow. There are specialist engraving drills that may well be superior to an efile though!
Dremels (and Dremel-like) tools come in various sizes with multiple adjustments. I've been using one for umpteens and it works better than the dedicated e-file I bought.
Thanks, Suzie! This is the video that I’ll show my husband. He is often asking
why I don’t just use a Dremel, LOL. I’ve told him why and, now, he can see. Have a great weekend Susie and cameraman happy Father’s Day.
Other Dremels come with a wider selection of speeds and collets to quickly switch bits. You can also buy a smaller flexi-shaft to attach to a Dremel that’s much easier to use. I feel like if it’s easily used by people to do intricate engraving work, it would be easy to use for nails. It may be harder to use a Dremel at very low rpms so I’d keep it to artificial nails. But, as someone who just wants to do their own nails and already has a Dremel, they work perfectly fine.
I use a Dremel as well with an extension on it that looks like a snake lol. With a variable speed to 15. Works great!
I have a micro Dremel. It’s a little bit smaller (slender) compared to what you are testing. I have two Dalmatians, and we use the Dremel to do their nails. We use sanding band with a fine grit. No metal bits. Same principle as humans, keep it moving and just a few seconds at a time to avoid heat spikes. It’s nice because it has a light and helps in avoiding the quick. That said, a few years back and again at the beginning of COVID I had acrylics and they were at the (yikes) 5 week mark. I used the Dremel on the low speed and fine sanding band, and was able to cut my nails down and thin the acrylic so it was manageable. I then found your channel and purchased an e-file. Although it takes talent to do acrylics, I found I could use builder gel to protect my nails till I’m ready for a salon visit. Love your channel!
So glad you did a side by side comparison. I have been so tempted to use a one tool for all things as I have hobbies where I need a dremmel. Time for a rethink.
Very interesting! I, personally, would never use a dremel. But, it was fun to watch you comparing the two.
Thank u so much had this drill that my dad brought frm Canada an I had no idea how to fit the bit in that u for this video
I use my dremel to remove my calluses on my feet. Works like a dream!!
I have a separate special nail drill for my nails, which is much weaker and wouldn’t be powerful enough for calluses.
To take the bit out of the dremmel you hold the lock button and twist the black thing, not all the way off, jist loose, pull the bit out and then retighten the black thing. Im a dog groomer and most groomers use dremmel brand dremmels on dog nails. They're definitely powerful and bulky
I’m so glad Camera Man pointed out that the brushes you bought from art stores were for nail art. Implying that it wasn’t to apply enhancements. Some people might assume those would work for application of enhancements.
So glad Suzie addresses this question of possibly using a dremel. I have seen many ask in comment sections of a dremel would work too because their husbands had a dremel(easy access).
My husband bought me a Dremel that was made for fine work ..and he bought me a huge set of drill bits ...but I did discover the nail bits from my other e files fit it as well
Dremel is a brand name & I believe they have a version for nails…
Really? Thats interesting
@@NailCareerEducation add the proper extension and do the test again. Then it would be a fair test
Love watching your videos tysmfs 💖💗
In the salon, we have the variable speed dremel with the flex cord hand piece made for nails, powered by a foot pedal. That works great in a pinch only thing is you have a dial on the dremel to controle the speed instead of the foot pedal. The foot pedal just turns it on to the speed you set it at. Its loud but it works.
Great video! I agree with you 100%!!!
I've been using a Dremel for my nails for years! The vibration is annoying at best, and it's dumb loud, but it works! It also does stall out, particularly when the battery is dying (it's an older style nicad battery, not lithium like yours). I am very much wanting to get a real nail drill though!
According to my dad, some of those tiny Russian cuticle bits are actually pretty nice for carving finer details
I used to use my husband's Dremel when I first started doing my own nails..... it was rough!!!
My husband said to use his dremel when my efile kicked the bucket and I nearly cut my finger off, the speed was way too much for me so I went with hand filing instead, it took a bit longer to do my nails but it worked out. Since then I purchased a melodysusie efile and I’m so happy with it! My recommendation is use a efile 😄😆😄 or hand files - not a fan of the dremel
I have an off brand Dremel. The big plastic you unscrewed each time is only removed to put the flex hose extension on. The flex hose is 6ft and the handset on it is actually the size and weight of the old school permanent marker. To change the bit out on it is basically the same as your e file. It also has a foot pedal that helps regulate the speed. The harder you step the faster it goes up to what the main unit is set on. So I can actually use it at a lower speed than if just using the main unit alone. I absolutely adore it and use it on my nails, carving egg shells, wood, rock, metal and plastic. Paid roughly $15usd almost 10yrs ago
I've been using a Dremel to grind my fungal toenails. I have ground them down to where they are paper thin. Topical treatments can now reach the fungus and they are looking so much better.
I usually don’t comment but you are truly amazing ! I was actually trying to see if I bought a specific but for my drill if it would work to trim my dogs nails😆 but I was shocked to see you doing a review on the dremel! I’m always skeptical on learning from online videos just because I’m better in person but I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL SERIOUSLY!
OH MY GOODNESS!! This was really Fun to watch! Almost makes me wanna go buy a Dremel since my E-file is DYING and I can't afford to buy one at the moment, Thanks for the video Susie always a Pleasure! 💕GodBless💕
I use my husband's dremel tool for my nails, it has a speed dial on the back and it has the "mini" hand tool attachment that you showed at the end of the video. It does make a bit of noise, but so far I haven't hurt myself doing my hails (knock on wood). I am not a professional, and honestly asked my husband to use his dremel to see if I liked using an "e-file". I like the tool you demo'd in this video for its quietness - I may look into getting something like that.
Yah😍😍😍😍 🙋♀️ Good video always learning so much from you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you Suzie and camera man 📷 💅👩❤️👨
I love using my dremel with the extension. I use a regular file while buffing the natural nail.
I have used dremmel for over 20 yrs for nails. I'm a certified licensed nail tech. I just bought a drill bit set that is similar to nail bits for the dremmel size. I use it for cleaning under nail, cuticle and other. There's one smaller that is not heavy and not loud.
I just did my nails with a Dremel. I have a Dremel 4000 with the flex shaft. Flex shaft is an attachment that it’s like holding a pen in your hand
What made me think of this was a review on a nail file drill on Sally Beauty's site where people were complaining that the nail drill stopped working after a couple of months. A Dremel is basically the same thing, but probably won't break, so I thought it might work.
How funny that you did a video as I was doing a gel fill…. With my Drexel! A light touch is certainly needed, I use it on 2 for removing polish and 4 to shape. I’ve waiting to find an e-file in a reasonable price range so I can at least use the proper bits.
I used a dremel before I got an e-file. Both actually worked well for me. I got a small, cheaper model that actually was recommended by my vet for my dogs nails lol. It only had two settings and the low was pretty slow, so that’s what I used. I was very careful and used a gentle bit for it, but I did get burned a couple times. I mainly used it on really rough callouses, for which it was perfect for. I prefer my e-file now for a lot of reasons, a big one being size and comfortability, but also because it’s a bit gentler.
my podiatrist uses a dremel in one hand and a small shop vac in the other hand. He's great. He takes care of our professional basketball team.
I have a dremel and the attachment that you showed at the end and it works amazing. It will last a lifetime. Sorry you bought the wrong item without the possibility for using the attachment, but I think you would have liked it.
I have used my husband's Dremel to remove acrylic. His has the attachable handpiece that is considerably thinner and lighter with more Mobility. The higher-priced dremels do have a variable speed dial so as not to rip through your natural nail. If you're going to use your going to get a Dremel I would recommend working on your natural nail with a hand file. This is a good video because not everybody can afford to buy an e-file if they are just doing their own nails. I just recently retired my 29 yes, 29 year old nail Genie that I used when I was a nail tech and purchased updated e-file 😆
My nail salon has some old Dremels only at the pedicure chairs, but theirs don't sound that loud. They only use them for callouses, but I have a thickened nail that needs to be sanded flat to look normal.
My dremel has a flex bit attachment that makes it really easy to use for small hard to reach places. Also my dremel has a speed "dial" and not just 4 speeds. I actually liked using my dremel on my nails with the sanding bands better than my e-file.
If you are a pro tech becareful about liability
Thank You for this video.
I wanted an efile and my dad let me use his dremel, it worked really well
I use my Dremel with the flexible Flex Shaft and it works great!
Me too! I guess this is not a fair comparison! I use for work a Dremel, Dremel 3000 with a flex shaft and for change faster the bits I use chuck dremel, it’s easy, it’s not heavy and for hard work
Crazy. My boyfriend got me the dremel to do nails. And it works perfect!!! Even tho it’s a little more big, but my clients nails come out perfect. So I highly recommend!!!!
Hi, just letting you know the Dremmel makes a connector that is the size of a sharpie. It’s used mainly for smaller work like carving; lightly sanding etc. I’d love to know how that one would compare. It’s much smaller than the e-file
You need the Dremel flexible shaft attachment, it connects to that handpiece. My Dremel is hanging on a hook with the shaft attachment. I also have the Dremel foot pedal. I got the idea from the men I used to go to that did my acrylics.😉👍🏻
Hi Suzie! I would love it if you had an amazon page with your fav products! Commission for you, great fun products for your viewers!
Dremmels are the tool most groomers use for filing dog nails, which are much thicker and more pencil-shaped than human nails. I've used mine on my own nails to fix snags, but it's really not a convenient shape or size to do much more than a touch of shaping on the edge, and you need to finish with a hand file anyway. Btw- most groomers hold it more like a paring knife than a pencil, with the weight of it in your palm, and then you can use your thumb to stabilize it
What is one of the best e-file? I have been looking at a lot of them. I am looking for something that is portable. Or are the one you have on this video better? I am going to college for nail tech and I want to learn as much as I can
I was a jeweler back in the ‘70s way before e files. Dremel had a product where the motor would be hung above and it had a flexible shaft with a small hand piece that was very common for intricate work in the jewelry industry. The hand piece was the size of the current e-files.
Very interesting. However it was a tool working with metals 👍🏼
Back in the day I still have my demeal with the attachment
A Dremel was my 2nd option for nails after cheap made in China crap on Amazon. My hubby did get me the hand piece attachment which helped a little. I still mangled my fingers. I upgraded to the Kiara Sky drill and have had much better luck.
The dremel also has an extension hand piece that is supposed to be used for more intricate things and would be much closer to a nail drill in size and comfort and probably would not look or be as intimidating as the full size dremel
Better, but my concern would be liability for your insurance
I wonder how many times cameraman has used your e-files around the house 😂
Ngl I use a retired old e file and dust extractor for crafting. I don't need the torgue of a Dremel for what I'm doing and these are a lot more comfortable!
Love the new glasses! How about a matching mani?
i had one at a job we would use it for simple thing for pedicures ..(if big toe too thick ..ill drill it down a little bit to clean around cuticle)gel polish remover like one or two acrylic toenails . this was before they had the battery one for cheap
this is soooo crazy.... a couple of years ago I was looking for an e-file in the internet... and my wonderful german husband... same story: why don’t you buy a dremel? so I posted the question and a guy really replied kind of: well, you can buy one from my shop if you want to loose all your nails and need to feel some pain. whats wrong with our men?🤦🏻
great video! you pick up the whole e-file unit😂🤣.
Ngl. I have once used my dog’s claw dremmel to get rid of a split in my natural nail. The split developed while I was grooming my dogs so I just used the nearest tool to stop it from getting worse
We use a dremel for our dog’s nails, but still have to be careful as it can remove too much and get the quick
I have used a Dremel for the etching of gel tips… it was fine for that but would not use it on natural nails. I had the extender hand piece; it was just the one time while I waited for my efile to arrive. I am an efile girl all the way!!
tbf there are many dremels that have a dial that lets you fine-tune select your power/speed just like an efile, but the handles are still way too large and (I think) they don't put as much into reducing the vibrations as an efile, at least comparing the one efile I have and the dremel's I've tried
I believe they use the Dremel on the feet for the pedicures were I go to have my nails done
Well backs in 2010 these dremels where very popular in the nail industry, I remember going to a mall (yes we have just malls no plazas) and going to a nail salon with my mom (yes we have salons exclusive for manicure and pedicure), she was going for acrylic nails (oh also there’s nail salons exclusive to manicure with no pedicure at all), and all of the workers were Asian, the all had like a wire stand very industrial attached to their work table (just a regular manicure work table), they used to hang the dremel on the stand, and I remember also they used like a mini high pressurized sprayer, obviously they used it with nail polish, and they used stencils to make the perfect French tip. And I’m telling you! THOSE MAN AND WOMEN, worked fast and beautiful! Those manicures were top notch! ⭐️ unfortunately that stablishment was very expensive for my mom, but I was pleasantly surprised with the experience 😂
Ohh, I forgot to say that I’m not American! I’m from Venezuela! 😂😂
You can use it,they sell a small hand piece attachment that you can attach to it the dremel for smaller work I have two, they work beautifully. I'm a ceramicist by trade so I use that piece for small detailed carving
Love your nail color. What product and color is it?
I actually used my dad's Dremel to remove my acrylics several years ago when you couldn't just get on Amazon and buy an efile and I was having so much trouble removing them. I had to be careful but it worked fine
You gotta fo what you gotta do
Quick question what do you with all the e-files you test out?
I actually have the turbo file. I paid a lil more than you did but I like it. I've purchased efiles off Amazon n ebay n they didn't last nearly as long as they were suppose to with no warranty at all. The turbo does have the option of warranty if ur like me n hard on the drills but I'm still not convinced it's all me lol. I'm glad u experimented with the dremel cuz I always wondered it's effectiveness. Once again thanks for your knowledge.
I love that e-file!
In the 80s when I started doing nails, the Dremel was the only electric choice and I used a dremel for years. I frequently had to apologize for causing friction burn. It was bulky to hold, was to powerful for the job, but it DID work. I now have an e-file and I love it so much more and agree with you. In a pinch, if I had nothing else…like in the 80s, I’d use the dremel. But my preference is the e-file.
I don't know what speeds that has but I've been using a dremel for years on my own nails. Simply because I'm a dremel pro doing art projects for years with one... And my hands are HUGE so I prefer it tp the small drill handle. Down side is it only rotates one direction & some don't have low enough settings. I would not recommend using it on anyone if you're working on another person. Simply because how to you explain that if it goes wrong?
Yeah, practice and training is key.
Love your videos 💕your best out here on RUclips world 🌎
4:16...I have use this before just add tape to the ends of your bits and they’ll fit perfectly (no weird adjustments required) my husband even added the footpedal to this machine.
It’s funny but I find this industrial machine for woodworking more durable than the actual nail technician machines. 🤔🙃

5:15... you’re right the look is not very pretty.
But the one I used was very slim and not as heavy, you would have to shop around.
Plus the adjustments my husband made I still had the original nail tech handle from my old nail machine attached to the motor of this machine.
So another words the pedal and the nail tech hand part were the same but the mortar was the woodworking machine.
This all happened because I kept going through machines because the Motor just did not keep up. 💲💲💲
The dremel stylo might have been a tad more suited for this comparison 😅
I have a pet dremel that I use on my dog's nails, a couple of times I thought about using it on myself. :D
The little drills that dentists use look just like efiles that are used for nails. If I'm not mistaken, a dentist actually made the first acrylic nail.
That is also why on some e-files websites, that are recommended by pro nail arrists, you only see dentists. They use acrylic and efiles for nails, heck i bet some cuticle care tools are also borrowed from dentists. It is honestly so cool and interesting
I have long natural nails and I do cosplay and wood work that sometimes requires a dremel. I had a few incidents where I accidentally sanded one of my nails... super unpleasant would not recommend ever.
Also the attachment you saw is really powerful. It is much lighter and feels almost like a pen, but its definitely made for wood (and high density eva foam wich requires high speeds to be smooth when sanding)
Good to know - thank you
If you used the Dremel with the flex shaft attachment it would be a better comparison. It’s no really a one to one comparison without the flex shaft.
Good afternoon. I just wanted to say that there is a Dremel Flex Shaft that would be more comparable to your E-File. I own a few dremels but have used their flex shaft the most with my previous job. I will say that if there is no vibration on your E-File, then it may be more effective for delicate nail precision over the Dremel Flex Shaft. But, they would be more ergonomically similar than your Dremel. I hope that helps if you ever wanted to do a part two comparison.
Keep up the great video content! 🤝
I can not imagine using a dremel lol I do have a question for you though, can you do a lamp video? I heard that the lamps wear out over time and I just do not understand how they could unless one or two of the lights went out? But it was said you will know when it's going out when it takes two minutes to do something that normally takes one. Is that possible?
Hi Susie I have a question not about the product that you using now but I get Dollar tree nails cuz I can't afford to go to the salon to get my nails done but around the cuticle gets really itchy and I have to take them off what does that mean?
