Thank you!!! The amount of videos I have watched in the last hour just to get to yours is ridiculous, lol. They were barely helpful and although stated beginner friendly they were not. I just got a e-file and this is the most helpful and thoroughly explained video I've found. I really appreciate it!!
Ohh Thank you so much! I'm glad it helped you out. It encourages me to keep producing content that is useful. I appreciate your viewership and hope you join our family!!
Yesss thank you for using the beginner bits that are included!
Yesss
I'm glad you showed us these bits because I always thought they were no good as it looked too sharp and never used them, I will try them out thank you 💖💖🙏🙏
They have less incidence of cutting the skin. However, anything can cut the skin if you're spinning too fast or pressing down too hard. It's a great bit for the cuticle area. Make sure to gently push back the proximal nail fold and be gentle with the email. Happy Filing!!
I'm a beginner nail tech I started at 8 years old never really understood the stuff but i'm 15 now been learning for 7 years I began with nail polish and charms going to fake nails and polish then acrylics about to get my first builders gel and i've had my own electric nail files, but never understood how to use them properly so I really appreciate this video 😊
(my mother sometimes buys my stuff but most of the time I use my own money from working)
Do you have IG?
What's your ig
Thank you for taking unexpensu=ive products into consideration for us non nail techs that buy for personal use.
You're very welcome. I'll keep showing affordable stuff. Thank you for watching. I appreciate it!
I have these exact drill bits and I’ve only been able to find vids of expensive bits, thank god for you!
Aww appreciate you! I hope you find a way for them to work for you until you can add to the arsenal!!
Yours was the second video i clicked on & (in agreement) with all other comments here, I am so thankful I clicked on it. Not only did you explain everything I needed to know, you also inadvertently answered my biggest question which was "when do i use forward and when do i use reverse". Really helpful 😊
glad to help!! Thank you for watching!! 🙂
How is it that no one else was this informative and all of their videos were way longer. 🙄 thank you ❤️❤️
You're very welcome! I'm glad you got something out of it!!
The most helpful efile video for beginners who just got their first efile machine ❤️
Thank you so much! I appreciate you commenting!
every video i’ve clicked on had higher end drill products like kiara sky. i badly needed a beginner tut and found this video that had my exact kit and felt so relieved. i feel so much more confident about using the kit now thank you so much!
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching
Just got into Gel X and let me say, your video was a LIFESAVER! Whenever I'd look for forums or instruction on using the "cheaper" bits, people would go on and on about how "you shouldn't use...too low quality..." But I refuse to spend big bucks on a e file/bits until I'm certain this method is for me! Thank you for your clear explanations and showcasing the affordable stuff!
You are very welcome! Until you know this works for you, it's good to start with what you have. Glad the video was able to help you out.
This! Can you tell us, should those diamond bits be the ones to use on your natural nail? I have to do a fill and I just want to make sure I understand so I don’t wreck myself! Lol
Thank you for showing us how to use cheap drills/bits that we would just be starting out with and taking into consideration that we just have what we have and might be all we can get. I really appreciate that.
You are very welcome! Glad I could help
Ain’t that the truth
I have to agree with others… after watching MANY other videos regarding the same topic… this was by far the most helpful… so thank you! 💜
You are welcome!! Glad it helped you out
The best video I have come across for someone learning how to use these exact drill bits. Thank you for explaining these all so well!!
@@raspberryhearts7581 You are very welcome! Thank you for watching
This is absolutely the best E-FIle tutorial out there, so educational....THANK YOU
You’re welcome!! I appreciate you watching
So so SO informative and helpful…and hilarious!!! I had to pause my e file on “he had a dream…” 🤣😂
Lol! Glad I could entertain you. Hey life's enough and we need laughter to get through this experience at times. Thank you for watching!!
This video is exactly what I needed. I was starting to think I had made a mistake purchasing this product and was about to return it. Well you’re explaining exactly how to do this made me change my mind. Gonna start practicing. Thank you, thank you. Wonderful work! 👏👏👍
Your welcome! Stay tuned! Got more efile goody videos coming your way
Thank you. I bought a kit, and I was baffled by all the parts. Your video was exactly what I needed to figure out how to use this drill.
You're welcome! Glad I could help
You're welcome! Glad I could help
Love the video. “Elliptical” is the word you were looking for when describing what happens when you don’t insert the bit all the way.
Absolutely!! 😜😜
Thank you!! I just got an e-file as a gift so I’m learning how to use it. Your video was very helpful and so funny!!! You have such a fun way of expressing yourself and explaining very important information!! I don’t want to hurt myself w this new tool!!!
Glad it helped you. Thank you for watching.
Thank you for your time spent helping us beginners. Your personality is sweet and your humor is uplifting! 😊
@@3733Melody You're so welcome! I appreciate you commenting and watching!! 😁
I'm an old Manicurist 2004 never used a drill b/c only do natural nails and I do everything by hand, this is so helpful thank you.
You're welcome! Be gentle. go slow. It'll help you have more time in the career.
never would have thought to season a bit, great advice
You're welcome! Helps you to not cut yourself or your client. Thank you for watching!!
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! I was about to get myself "big girl files" and potentially hurt myself or my family because I am not a nail tech, I just love nails and have gotten into gel manicures rn, so I got an e-file and a set of these from Saviland and I actually finished my own cuticles with the cone bit, but was too scared to use it on my family, but now I'm gonna practice and give them better manicures ♥ Thank you again ♥
@@_primalpilatesprincess You are very welcome!!
Like most I definitely use the Mandrel Bit. My E-File came with a lot of diamond bits that looks like cuticle bits. I never used because it dont get in it like a carbide or ceramic bit. But I also never thought to use at a higher speed get use out of them. I'll practice this weekend. Thanks as always for sharing your Nail Logic 💅💞
You're welcome! You're right. Those starter bits don't get in there like the carbide and ceramic bits. As always, thanks for watching!!
OMG the Welcoming hands but was so sweet, actually had me misting up bit.. What a lovely way to start❤️❤️❤️
I am a 100% newbie to this and have just begun dabbling with gel polish and polygel...teach me master❤️
I will do my best patawan!! 💕
Also I LOVE ALL OF YOU JOKES! You have a GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR 💯😊
Aww thank you!! I appreciate you watching!!
I'm glad you showed us how to use these bits, and to use them on a high speed instead of low because I always thought they were no good as it looked too sharp and never used them, I will try them out thank you 💖💖🙏🙏
Glad it was helpful! Appreciate you watching!
Thank you! This was extremely helpful! I've discovered builder gel nails and I love them! Finally broke down and bought an e-file. Wish me luck!
And luck you are wished! Please let me know how it goes. I really appreciate you watching. ❤️
Thank u 4 spendin time lettin us kno wot these bits r used 4 n amount of speed required, most people say they dont or wont use them as theyre crap. Its nice 2 hav some1 who is 4 the newbies who wanna wot 2 use n how as they came with the efile xxxxx
You are welcome! People forget we all have to start somewhere. If this is what you have, why not use it!!! Glad it helped you out!!
First time using a drill, came in the mail today. And i’m doing my nails w your vid. Thankyou, cus without u idk how i would get by rn. And i’m new 💛
@@lillianperrine60 Awww! I'm glad to hear that! Welcome to the nail world. Take your time. Don't press down too hard. And make sure to be patient. You're on your nail journey! It's a journey not a race. It takes time.
My gosh I’m so happy I found your review I have just bought this exact starter kit I’m a beginner and you just helped me out so much!! I was practicing on my husband last night and wondering why it’s not really taking much off !! I had my efile too low for these starter bits. I’m about to practice on myself today removing my nails and doing a fresh new gel manicure. I’m ordering me some better bits! Thank you again my dear 😁😁👍👍love and Godbless
You are so welcome! I'm happy it helped you. Make sure not to press down too much. If you need to press down a little much, it means the bit is dull & you need a new one.
Thank you for explaining this in a succinct manor. I've tried to watch several other videos and I can't even make it to the end because they're just rambling about stuff that doesn't even relate to the bit but more knowledge around the process of doing nails if that makes sense. Thank you for keeping it to the point. I have these exact bits and a few others that came with it. Some of them are white and a couple have weird shapes. I'm not quite sure what to do with those but maybe I'll figure it out. Thank you
I'm working on a new video that will explain more about all the bits. The white bits are ceramic bits. They're best used for gel polish and gel removal. Some people do use them for acrylic and polygel removal. I've found the metal or carbide bits remove the product faster.
Girl we are united as women! The beauty journey is universal, be it a struggle or a free fall, this is a road we walk ❤️ together
@@AshleighJane-nd2qx Seriously! If we were kinder to each other. Or, at least remembered what it was like to start brand new, maybe we wouldn't have so many miserable Mary's out here trying to brow beat everybody.
Thanks so much this was very helpful. I do my own press ons at home and this was super helpful.
You're very welcome! And thank you for watching
LOVE this! Thanks for explaining the bits and use! Very informative and easy to understand.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Thank this help a lot and I’m just starting with my poly gels. This help so much because I did not know which one to start my prep work, so it will stay longer when I begin my poly gel on my nails.
You're welcome and yes it will help. Prep is at least 75% of retention
As others mentioned, been searching for hours and this was EXACTLY what i was looking for. Thank you! Subscribed!
@@pparadoxa90 You're very welcome!! I do try to answer any questions posed to me. Feel free to come back here and ask if you need more info. Happy Nail journey!! Thank you for watching!!
THANK YOU! I have just started doing my own nails. i got this set and i was a bit confused as to how to use them.. you explained very well.
You are welcome! I'm glad I could help. Thank you for watching. I appreciate it!!
Such a great video! I just do my own nails but about gave myself PTSD using an e-file. This was so helpful!
Aww! I'm so happy that it helped you. I'll be putting up an intermediate video showing other bits you can use that help get through a set a lot faster.! Keep on coming back!!
Thank You. I learned more from you about E-File Bits than I did in my training!
Aww,(me sniffling fake tears) you make me so happy to hear that! Seriously, I'm glad I could help!
Just got my first ever e-file and this is the best tutorial video I've seen so far! I feel so much more at ease and will be rewatching when it's time to do my infill in a couple of weeks
Glad to help!! Come back and let me know how it went. Thank you for watching!
Thank you!!!!!!!! Unfortunately I finally found this video after doing a full set of “builder gel” nails and I used my cylinder bits so much to take down the shape and create a better structure that I think I wore one out already 😅😅😅. But so glad TH-cam finally recommended this ❤
You are very welcome. I wish somebody would have told me this nail journey would cost more then actually going to get my nails done! 😆
I just got an e-file for Christmas and you're a life saver! Thanks!
Yeah!!!!! Enjoy this journey! It is a lot of fun, but it is work! Don't quit and don't press down on your nail too hard! Thank you for your kind words and for watching! Happy Nails to you!
I love this video!! Thank you so much for explaining to the beginner so we understand!! You're awesome 👌
@@laurataylor8219 Awww thank you! You're awesomer for watching! Glad to be able to help you out!
Amazingly helpful. I appreciate your video as a scared beginner! :)
So glad I found you! You give all the details I need to know!! Thank you so much I appreciate your work 🤍
Aww thank you for watching! Appreciate your viewership!!
Thank yewww! I've been flipping through videos all day to find this! Thank you for spelling this stuff out, I needed this😊💚
You are very welcome!! I'll have an updated video of bits I use coming out. I've gone through over 50 bits to get to the few ai love. Thank you so much for watching!!
I appreciate your video so much! There is much to learn! And, I have a nail dream too😊
Girl, I am so happy I came across your channel by accident from suggested videos/channels. I've only watched a couple videos so far cuz I'm not done work yet for the day, but can't wait to have some time to watch more of your videos! Loads of love from your Canadian viewer in the U.K.❤️🍁🇬🇧
Hey cousin from another mother! My mom's side are all Canadian. From Windsor to Quebec!! Thank you for watching!! And yes I am feeling the love!!
I'm so glad I found your video explaining E file Bits. I'm learning to do my own nails and I bought an E File. Thank you so much for explaining each bit. Im getting a wee bit better. But I would like to ask how many Rpms should I use when backfilling with builder gel? Should I have it high or low ? Thank you.
When backfilling on the natural nail, I don't exceed 5,000 rpm. If it's on the acrylic, hard gel, biab, or polygel, I won't go higher than 13,000 rpm's. Now, if you're using the sanding band, it's going to heat up so be careful that you aren't pressing down too hard. Hope this helps. Just take your time.
Love this video especially since those are the bits I just ordered. I watched twice and still had a couple of questions. I will be using my e- file with gel manicures. Which bit should I use to make my natural nail gritty? Which bit should I use to help remove extra gel glue (the excess glue from my gel tips/covers)?
PS... I LOVED "nail estate"... 😂
@@neryluzceballos4377 You can start very lightly with the cone bit. You can use the mandrel bit with a medium or 180 grit sanding band to remove the excess glue. Be careful and don't press too hard or you'll feel some real heat on the nail.
Girl thank you! I just bought an edible to try doing my own dip powder nails and I am so intimidated. I’m gonna use all your tips!
You are so welcome! thank you for watching!
Go easy on the edibles
Edibles and drill bits could be a recipe for disaster!
You’re amazing! Black woman awesomeness 👏🏾
Thank you for the tutelage❤
Thank you so much. You were super detailed and how to use each bit. I just subscribed and I can’t wait to see more of your videos. I just purchased my new E-File, liquid gel, brushes, nails and a whole bunch of fun goodies. You are absolutely amazing. Thank you and I will be watching more videos.
Aww thank you! I'm so glad it helped you. Thank you so much for watching
YA!!!!!!! Thank you soooooooooo much!!!! This really brightened my day!!! I love all your videos!
You're welcome and Thank you for watching!! I really appreciate it!! ❤
Yes, please, describe the bits for beginner usage - not for how a pro would use them, thank you! Very helpful, love it! Wait.. why's a pro watching this, anyway? Just coming here to complain and correct folks... make your own video instead of complaining lol
You'd be surprised the comments I get. I appreciate you watching!!
This is brilliant thank you. I have just purchased this exact nail file and needed this information 😊
You are welcome!!
Now we just need to figure out the easiest way for using for the non-dominant hand and the dominant hand's nails.
Cant believe I have only just found you !! Love this thank you so much ! I’ve just purchased my first drill this helped so much ! Xx
You are so welcome!
i just got a set no idea what to do and found you thank the nail lords

Thanks for this video. It was exactly what I was looking for and you explained it very well.
Glad it was helpful!
LMAOOO I love you and your energy!!! Mrs. Lumpy dumpty bumpy yep that's still me 🤣. Please make more videos on breaking down drill bits for us who still don't know what we are doing with them and still trying to figure them out!!! This video was amazing and by FAR the most helpful one I've seen 🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️❤️
I will definitely do that for you! I appreciate you watching!!! Hey,we all have to start somewhere!!!
Look no further anyone because THIS IS IT! ❤
Thank you!!
Thank you so much i am a beginner and this is so much more easier to understand! Love your personality!! God Bless💜
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
I know this is an older video but just wanted to say I love your personality! You seem like a lot of fun! And thank you so so much for this video!! Also if you haven't already, can you make a video showing what bits would be good to buy as a step up from these? I need to buy better ones but don't know where to start.
Sure!! I have this video showing some of the best bits I use for acrylic and gel. Thank you so much for watching! So happy to have you join the fun😊 th-cam.com/video/CEwH6o8s6eY/w-d-xo.html
Great video . Thank you. So reverse is basically when you’re doing your opposite hand ?
Yes. It's also for those who are left hand. They turn it to forward when they work on their right hand. Thank you for watching. I really do appreciate it!! 💕
I love your energy.
Thank you so much! I needed this so much. As a newbie, you gave me confidence!
You're welcome!! Just remember to take your time and give your self room to make mistakes!!
@thenailauthority tysm! I have a question: I tried to do my nails and they looked horrible! Too much of the powder around the nail beds. How do I prevent that in the future?

Very Informative, and I love the way she talks😍 you're so funny❤.
Thank you so much!!
Thank you, for this detailed video!!!! I really needed this.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for the very informative video, it helped a lot!!! But I wonder, what is the best way to clean the bits? Thanks?
I use a wire brush that I get out the hardware section of the dollar store. Thank you for watching!!
Oh my gosh you’re so hilarious 😂😂😂
Hey, life can make you cry alot sometimes. We all need more laughter in our lives!! Thank you for watching.
Thank u girl! I was so happy when I found this video❤

Honestly this was one of the most helpful videos to date! Thank you! ❤

I love your videos! Your personality is amazing ❤️. Please show us how you support the pinky nails while filing on yourself (the support of my pinkies while filing is a problem for me). Thank you 🙏🌹

You are very welcome!
Absolutely wondering tutorial for us beginners. I really appreciate learning my new e file with this vid. Thanks!
You are welcome!!
Thank you for this video! I am going to open my beginner e-file tonight! ❤️👏
Oooohhh! I'm so excited for you! Don't press too hard and most importantly - DON'T GIVE UP! Nails are not easy (Unless you're a natural then I'm squinting my eyes at you in envy) Naw. For real, Good Luck and Happy Nails to you!
I’m so nervous to use my nail drill! I feel a bit better after watching this video 🙏 thank you
You're welcome. If you can, practice calling it an efile. I would hate for you to be around some experts and they make you feel bad for calling it a drill. Drills put holes in walls. Thank you for watching.
Gurrl I'm a whole 2yrs late. But thanks for sharing 💅🏾 helpful tips 👍🏾
😆. No problem. You're welcome!!
Thank you first video I watched and I made it through the whole thing !!!!!😁 you are very helpful

@@miriamngoe250 You're very welcome!
i just love ur energy
Aww thank you! I appreciate you watching!!
Thank you so much for this!! Question- I just got my first e-file for use at home to do gel manicures. I usually just use builder gel on my natural nails, and keep my toes manicured with no polish. It seems like your tips were focused more on acrylics. Any tips on which tips to use when I’m working to prep my natural nails for gel?
I use the same prep for hard gel, acrylics, or gel polish. It's different for regular polish. I use the same prep because the first 3 like to stick to a more textured surface. For regular polish, i cleanse the nail, lightly remove the shine. Cleanse with alcohol again. Let dry. Base coat, let dry. Polish. Let dry. To coat. You can use a gel top coat that cures in a lamp if you let it get super dry. I'm talking dry for at least 30 mins
Thank you for showing me how to use the different bits. Enjoy your personality and humor too! 😊
You are welcome and thanks for watching!

Do any of these help for buffing? Or should I buy small buffing blocks. Oh The last bit helps with buffing thank you ☺️
Thank you, great video! Only one I've seen that suggests seasoning or smoothing the bits, which is so useful! What about the other bits that come with the file? Mine has a disc and several white bits which I think are carbide?
My rule of thumb is if the edges feel rough, season them! Thank you for watching!!
Thank you, but you've misunderstood my question. It was about the other bits that come in the pack with the e file - do you explain those anywhere? Do you have another video? @@thenailauthority
@@ellincoetzee8900 Can you send me a pic of the bits you're referring to on IG? It's thenailauthority_ If I don't have a video, I'll make a quick one for you.

Thank you For! Binge away! Feel free to let me know if there's anything you want to see!!
Thank you so very much I'm a beginner at doing my nails I have been using the polygel and I ordered the starter kit and I am so trying to figure out how to get the thickness right and how to get that nice natural look around the cuticle when it comes to doing polygel or acrylic
I'll have to do a video focusing on that.
Loved the video and really great explanation!! Just a quick question regarding the direction for the e-file. I’m a righty and I should use it on forward on my left hand since I’m doing my own nails. But when I’m doing my right next me with my non dominant hand should I keep it on forward or use it on reverse ?
Thank you!! ❤
If you're working on your left hand and you are right hand, you should be in forward. Now it also depends on which side of the nail you are writing from. I tend to work pinky side out and so yet my way in. Yes you would work in reverse on your left hand. If you put the bit on the nail and it feels funny like it's spinning backwards, change the direction. I hope that helps!!
You are so good at educating
Thank you!
