I agree Anastasia, that a clean, prepped nail is so satisfying. It also completely destroys the thought that enhancements ruin your natural nail (only if done improperly!!!!). When you called yourself a LAZY nail tech I had to laugh 😂 you are so professional and such an inspiring teacher. Anything BUT lazy. Your voice is another calming factor that makes me pay attention. You never rush or speed through things your classes and videos have taught me more than anyone else ever has!!!! Thank you for all you do to promote good, healthy, professional techniques. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The black higher quality nail drill is actually cheaper than the pink one with the coupon offered right now. Nice ! I would love to see a video of you testing cheap Amazon nail bits. Some are a real bust and I’m not sure how to tell if they will be decent
Try pana bits! She actually has an Amazon store where she links some. They’re great quality and a good price - not the absolute cheapest but not expensive.
@@sue8412 yes. I love the tiny pana safety bit. I bought one to try it & then had to buy 4 more bcuz 😍😍😍😍 it’s sooo good for cuticle care. For toes that often have a lot of dryness and for ppl with dry finger nail cuticles. Then I use the flame bit for anything too stubborn for the safety bit. Plus the pana safety bit just removes so quickly without scraping the natural nail. I’m a tech in training. LOVE the pana ceramic bits.
The nails before you applied the nail polish were so beautiful and clean . So neat and smoothly shaped . The colors were fun . I don’t care for the black spots on the top coat looks like it’s dirt stuck on there but that’s a matter of style preference. Thank you for such a detailed nail fill process. You do such excellent work ❤
Well, it was really lucky that you did this review! I was doing my nails yesterday, and my nail drill just....died!! Mid mani. I'd only bought it about 3 months ago, but it was quite cheap. False economy. My new Yafex nail drill arrived today, and it's extremely good and really quiet. So, I'll be finishing my main tomorrow!! Thank you! Xx
one day i want to have my nails done by you 💕 it would be the best set of my liiiife! the way you gently but firmly clean the cuticles and nail plate, i love it!!
Love when you do longer vids! I do my prep for cuticles at 5rpm, and removal 15-20rpm. From my experience a quality efile has really good torque, otherwise you do need to work at higher speeds. XOX Luna 💅🏻
Just a suggestion, u should turn the rpm’s down before u switch the direction of the drill. To be at 20k rpms and just switch directions will definitely eventually burn up the motor. It’s the same thing as waiting for your car to stop before u switch from forward to reverse or vise versa
I always do this. I don’t know if it’s just me but I feel like the speed is different as well when it goes to forward from reverse, almost like reverse runs slower...bit weird. So I just turn the thing down before turning direction then alter speed after. 🤷♀️
Depends on the e file though. Some automatically stop the rotation when you switch direction so it's okay. If it doesn't have that function of course you need to turn down the speed completely before switching.
Thank you for the review and explanation. I'm a DIY and only do my own nails. Since I'm still learning I should get the first drill. Thank you for your clear tutorials, I'm learning a lot 😊❤️🌹💕.
When I do my manicure at home I put gel top coat over regular nail polish (lasts 2-3 weeks) and I've been hand filling off the gel top coat and soaking with acetone. It's so much work though and now you've got me considering an e-file. Thanks for your reviews!
Just bought the black and gold based on your review. I’m just starting to do my nails more and wanted to get something that was powerful and lightweight from the start. Thanks for your review!
Great work! Please make a video where do you speak more about greenies and how to cure/avoid it. I recently had a client with this problem and I was terrified because I just started to do nails and nobody told us about it in nail courses ☹😱 thanks to God it wasn't that bad, only one nail was green, but anyway it was not nice and client was scared that it is fungus or something 😒
Could you do a video listing your favorite RUSSIAN brands that ship to USA? Like even-or especially-include ones that don’t have English websites. It’s easy to use a webpage translator but can be difficult figuring out who will ship here. So far i have found MiLK, Mystique and Cosmoprofi but I want MORE!! I am hooked!
I love watching you perform your dry manicures on clients. You are afloat so perfect and they look so clean. I'm just a nail enthusiast, but I do hippie to be some what good as you one day because I can never still enough skin on the sidewalls to be able to clip it and it just never looks clean at the end my cuticles that is.
I would definitely pick the black one even though I’m retired and I only do my own nails I work with acrylic I don’t use gel so I need something powerful enough for me to really get my acrylic off as quickly as possible
I have learned so much through your videos! Thank you, Anastasia 💕 I would love if you did a video on how to deal with clients who have oily nails. I find it much harder to do dry manicure and have good retention on oilier nail beds. Any tips?
I really enjoy watching your work! I am learning so much from your channel and classes. I hope to get further into the classes soon. If a choice had to be made, it would be the black one since I would like to add nails to my small business.
your definition of lazy is different.. I"m lazy so I apply product without too much sweating over the shape because I can sculpt and shape them with a file later. I just make sure the prep is good enough to prevent lifting
Very nice review n info on these mandrills. Such a beautiful transformation of the nails. Beautiful. N beautifully done. I would choose the first one. To get used to the use of them. Tfs my friend ☺️
So, I have never drilled a hole from the bottom up (yet), but I HAVE accidentally drilled dips into my natural nail from overfilling and angling my e-file wrong as a beginner (and since my nails grow slowly, they are still there to taunt me, two years later).
I've made the same mistake too, when I was first learning on myself, I finally got the hang of it and managed to stop over filing my natural nails - until I used a new 5 in 1 ceramic bit to finish file... I didn't realise that there was a teensy weensy little blob at the tip of the bit, thought I'd just neatened up my cuticles, didn't feel anything was wrong. Then when my nails grew out about a month later, I could see the darker, recessed dip! 🤦🏻♀️
I think this is the first mistake we all make with e-files, it takes a bit of practice to tell product and cuticle from "oh that's natural nail dust....Oops!". This is why I ALWAYS tell beginners go super light and work slow, you'll get there.
How long does it take to do a fill for you? My clients come in expecting their fill to take an hour or less it's just not enough time for me so it makes me feel less of a tech because I can't complete it in their time frame
The nails are beautiful them drills look great I think black to although they both very pretty I’m looking for a drill right now I need one badly but they are so expensive being on low income is hard to buy but I would be interested to see prices so I will look 👀 just always feel down and like giving up when unable to get products needed but thanks so much appreciate your helping 🥰🥰🥰
I have that egg shell topcoat, same colour (brand is Senvenski I think), I just can’t get it to look very nice though. The bits take forever to mess about with, they either cluster or leave bare areas and my nails end up looking a bit mouldy rather than like eggs 😂. Never understood this trend but to each their own I guess lol.
@@Anon_E_Muss just as finicky if they’re that small I guess. I’ve tried with glitter hexagons the same size roughly, so finicky. But I don’t have a Crystal katana 😂. It’s a nightmare even trying to do it with Mylar and gold leaf. Like five mins of faffing about per nail. Lol. Probably why I prefer glitter topcoats and nail foils these days 😂.
@@JadeLeaf1980 yeah after I thought about it I realized it wouldn't work lol. Thanks for pointing me towards a brand, I would buy it if it was sold as a single polish and not a set.
Hi Anastasia 🙋🏽♀️ this efile looks cool with the light etc. In a previous video you said that for power, that 35- 40 watts is best, especially for acrylic. Have you tried the black efile on acrylic yet? Can you let me know how it performs on with acrylic please? Your work is flawless as always❣️ I wouldn’t say you are a “lazy” tech at all! You go above and beyond in your prep, compared to the majority of other techs! Ps.. could you leave a link for the Russian cuticle diamond bits you use (that are individually wrapped). Also which 5 in one carbide bit did you use at the start of this video ? I’m thinking maybe Kiara Sky? 🤔 I hope you are well, and managing to stay safe 🥰 Thankyou for another great video! 🙏🏽💕 xx
The lamp for the YaFex isn't a Flash Cure LED? Odd decision. The only difference between the files is the colour, right? You used a different bit with the 2nd file, that's why it went faster.
Wow this is so funny because I have the SAME exact drill, the pink and the black one! except mines made by a different company. The company is called SML, but literally it is the same exact drill, no joke! 🤯 (although looking at my drill I didn’t notice because I bought mine a couple years ago, yours is an upgraded version because mine doesn’t have the digital speed display it just has the dial…..But basically the same exact drill. 😍 I luv mine! Although I do prefer my cordless drill.
Appreciate your prep skills very much. Jealous! As for color; way preferred like you did, pre polish. Not a fan of the one orange one red; to each his own!
I have a problem... I'm learning how to do my own nails and I tried the gel overlay. But by the next day,it had started lifting from the tip of the free edge. What do I do?
the most satisfying part is dry cuticle care... seeing those clean cuticles after is so nice
I agree
Yes I agree

You are, by far, my favorite nail presenter. Your info is to the point without being too talky. And your filing is the best!!

@@stardustfactory8311 pana is really good I have hers and some melody susie bits and love them
All the Pana ones are fantastic!
I often put the video back to see some parts twice because it's so satisfying. The dry manicure, filling off the product, the application etc

First, I love the longer video! Second, watching that much cleanup is so satisfying!
I really like the look of the orange with the black eggshell top coat, perfect Halloween nails!! Thank you for sharing, Anastasia! 😊💅
Me too it's perfect and simple for a diy'er like myself!
Thank you ! 😘

Thanks ! For some nail drills you need to do that. But some will do the full stop automatically first 😊
I would most likely get the black one. Her nails look so much better after you did them! I love both colors with the eggshell on top. I can't choose.
Thank you for the review and explanation. I'm a DIY and only do my own nails. Since I'm still learning I should get the first drill. Thank you for your clear tutorials, I'm learning a lot 😊❤️🌹💕.

This was such a satisfying transformation! Thanks for showing the whole process!
Great video! The black one because that's my favorite color! Love to see when nails are getting prepped.
Based on your review of this efile, I got it to replace my broken Melody Susie. I love this one! Thank you for this amazing review!
I bought a YaFex after watching your review. I love it!!
Wow @17:22 this is a real professional nail technician. I always do gel nails at home and I don’t think I can do that.
Just bought the black and gold based on your review. I’m just starting to do my nails more and wanted to get something that was powerful and lightweight from the start. Thanks for your review!
I really liked the black and white set with the hearts.

The nails were beautiful!! I was so sad to see them covered up with polish, but they turned out pretty too
I'm a DIY er so the pink will do great. My current drill is dying after 6 years and its was a cheap one. I love your videos.

I have been loving the way you do Nails...💓💓
Thank you for patient and sharing....you are so sweet ❣️✨
Hey, I have that same pink and black YaFex nail drill! I wish I'd gotten the other one now after seeing this video.

I have the black one and I absolutely LOVE it! Great video! I love your work! 🥰🥰🥰
i NEED to take a trip to north carolina and have my nails done by you ♥️ i love you & your work!
Black looked better to me. Thank for reviewing products to make it easier to decided.
Your application is so flawless ♡
Thank you so much!!
I love the matte black particle look with the orange for Halloween!
Wow 🤩 you’re a miracle worker honey. I love ❤ your channel xxxxx
I would definitely pick the pink one (first one) . I am a DIYer and I’ve been doing my own nails going on 7 years now sooo Because ❤️❤️🥰🥰
Ooh I like the black drill 💙
Thank you for making your videos much longer lol.. I’m a loyal subscriber.. stay beautiful as always
Much love from Boston Massachusetts ♥️

my favorite part is cleaning up under the nail, idk why I love it so much lol
Me too it’s so satisfying
Pink! .. I love the nail😻
I'm scared to use my nail file that fast I love watching these videos because you're amazing
Don't be scared! Just remember, feather light pressure and EVER SO SLIGHTLY increase only until it's actually removing.
You don't need to be scared, the most damage is done by using too much of a low speed!
Very nice review n info on these mandrills. Such a beautiful transformation of the nails. Beautiful. N beautifully done. I would choose the first one. To get used to the use of them. Tfs my friend ☺️
Hi Anastasia! I'm here to watch every video u post! But today I'm happy I'm really early! Thank you for your videos! 💜
Thank you so much
Ohhh these are such adorably subtle autumn/Halloween nails!😱
I love them! 😍
Thank you! 😊

Ya I got a drill and learned in myself. Lmao my nails are recovering. My middle finger and thumb actually were the worst but they have grown out
I've made the same mistake too, when I was first learning on myself, I finally got the hang of it and managed to stop over filing my natural nails - until I used a new 5 in 1 ceramic bit to finish file...

Where can I get the top coat you used? It looks amazing (like ALL of your work 😍) but I would like to try it!
Could you do a video about different dust collectors? I would love to buy one, but I don't know which ones are good.
I really like this video and the nails are beautiful
I have that egg shell topcoat, same colour (brand is Senvenski I think), I just can’t get it to look very nice though. The bits take forever to mess about with, they either cluster or leave bare areas and my nails end up looking a bit mouldy rather than like eggs 😂.

You can move them around a little with a detailer brush
This is amazing. Thank you for sharing and educating me ,,,,,,
I’m so jelly!! I have never been able to find a nail place that actually does nails correctly. I’m surrounded by mediocre nail technicians. :(
Four seasons of loneliness vibe from the 🎶beat of the music🥰
♥️love watching your vids
Love these videos! What brand/color is the hard gel you used?
Love the nails! I'd pick the black one :-)
I loved this, thank you. Can you get Amazon UK links for nail drills?

I tried the drill for polygel nails, works great!
Yes, the carbide bit is from Kiara Sky :)
I think that the black efiles better if it has more power but it the light LED for curing art ?
I dream of such a milling machine is beautiful, greetings to the Lady from Poland 🌸🌸🌸🌸
Thank you very much!
Beautiful nails! 😍 greetings from Holland.
Thank you! 😊
I'd be happy with either unit. Interesting these drills all come with the same set of standard bits, does anyone actually use them?
Only Sand Bits sometimes.
I don't use these shapes usually, so no :)
Sometimes sand bits for the sidewalls for men manicure mostly
Definitely the pink one
Love the beatinstrumental
What’s the name of that black egg shell top coat? I really like it and over orange is perfect for Halloween!
The lamp for the YaFex isn't a Flash Cure LED? Odd decision.
The only difference between the files is the colour, right? You used a different bit with the 2nd file, that's why it went faster.
No, it's a regular light, not for curing :)
Black drill is a bit more powerful
@@Nailcou Are they not the same model, just different colors?
Ya know I don't lime these but sooooo satisfying
30 thousand RPM?! Girrrrrrl, you're brave. I'd never have mine that high. Be scared to death of really hurting my client
Great Job!!
I like the black one I’m actually still considered this drill
Is base the same as bonder?
Cause I don't think all base gels are for adhesion right?
Loved!!!!!❤❤❤
That looks lovely.
Love watching your videos and would love any of the nail drills tyfs 💖🖤
Glad you like them!

I picked the black one
Where can I find a nail tech like you?
I need help I’m not sure if I should get the black e file thats not portable or the portable yellow one both from yafex
The black ⚫ one 💅
I never had my nails professionally done.
How many times can you gel fill?
Do you always need a nail tech to take them off?
Black one❤💯
Appreciate your prep skills very much. Jealous! As for color; way preferred like you did, pre polish. Not a fan of the one orange one red; to each his own!
What kind of gel is that. You floated it across. Brand name would be helpful. Please.
My parents: she’s probably watching something bad on the internet…
What I’m actually watching: *NAILS*
hi can i use this gel polish in my natural nail?
I have a problem... I'm learning how to do my own nails and I tried the gel overlay. But by the next day,it had started lifting from the tip of the free edge. What do I do?
where can i find that under the nail bit😊?
I love my ya fex drill
Beautiful!!!’
They look very nice but why didn't you correct the architecture of the nail and left them curved?
I got this in my Amazon cart isn’t that crazy 😝
Looove matte!
