Lisa, ?First...if you are "afraid" of hurting a client you really should take an e-file class....actually you should take it either way!? In the class you will learn which bit to use AND how to use them.? Going around the cuticle area I always use Vicki Peters VPsafety bit....it's a carbide bit that looks like a cone shape but has a rounded end also...I have used this bit since she started making them!!

I am using Entity for now.? I can't seem to find a product that I like.? I do use an e-file, I am having trouble with lifting around the cuticle when I use it.? I don't seem to have that problem when I hand file.? The person I used to work with showed me how she uses the e-file and she gets "rings of fire".? Her clients either are clueless about the lines or she uses a darker pink to hide the flaws.? I am afraid of doing the same thing.? I guess I really need to look into an e-file class.? I have used Absolute while in school, but not since.? I may have to get a sample kit.? I have also used EZ Flow boogie nights.? Very nice product. Thanks for your info! ?

The time that you save using the e-file is huge !!! Hand filing takes too long it will take too long to do the service as compared to a seasoned e-file user I do both I use the e-file and then I go in for the last touch with the hand file works well for me. I have been using the absolute? and the bond ex 2 products seems to be pretty decent I also use E? Z flow colored acrylics I use the OPI primer when I use those and it also works very well . Have you tryed the e-file ?? if so whats the probelm that you would consider all hand filing ?? Talk to you later Jennifer From: Lisa Cianciotti <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2008 8:09:55 AM Subject: NailTech:: Hand filing ?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!
