Vito,
I graduated Feb 1st and my teacher sent in paperwork the next day. I
received my letter of authorization on Feb 19th to take the theory. We can
take the theory at any time after approval/hours from the school. I took that
on Feb 27th. Got the letter saying I passed on March 3rd was approved for
practical. There is only one day per month, I believe it is the 2nd Monday of
the month, that you can take the practical. When I got the authorization to
test for practical, it already had my date and time set for March 10th, which
was the next available day for me to take the test. I took it on March 10th
and got the letter that I passed on March 14th. Our state board testing works
very quickly in PA. I am curious as to why you said that you didn't want to
"start trouble" with your question?

Elaine,
I have cuticle lifting when I use an e-file and not when I hand file.
Obviously, I am not doing something correctly. I also have talked to people
who refuse to go to a nail salons who use e-files, probably because of misuse,
I am sure. I don't want to be that tech that they are afraid to go to because
I use an e-file.
I graduated in Feb and passed boards in March. I have only worked one
place for 4 months. The only way I can work in this business is to open my
own salon at home. (I have 2 school-aged boys and run my husband's HVAC
business). I have so many more things to learn! I had a terrible school
experience!!

Lisa,
First, I was just curious as to why you would want to switch back from
e-filing to hand filing. Mostly just curious as an educator :)
Second....and I BEG ALL OF YOU.....do not work over wet primer. I don't care
if the Pope told you to do it. Primer is most often times "methacrylic acid".
If you have ever spilled your primer on yourself, you likely have a little
burn scar to prove the strength of this acid.
Acid needs to evaporate to dry. If you apply a fresh wet coat and go right
over it with your product...you've prevented it from drying through
evaporation. The only choice is has is product absorption and NAIL
absorption.
Every chemist (not tech...chemist) I have ever had this conversation
with...cringes at the miss use of this product. A really good product should
not need wet primer to hold on to the nail.
Primer...when used correctly, is used sparingly. It is basically needed to
change the PH of your nail and kill any last living thing on the nail that
could have contaminated it.
I'm on hands and knees begging...for the health of your clients
nails....please...stop using wet primer with application (if you are doing
it). Beggggggggggging.

I am considering going to all hand filing over using an e-file. Does anyone
here do all hand filing, if so, how do you do your rebalance without using a
drill? Also, when you put on primer do you let it dry or do you apply your
product while the primer is still wet? I have a TT video and she put on 2
coats of primer. She lets the first one dry, then does a second coat, but
applies the product while the 2nd coat is still wet. What is the best way?
Thanks!
