Nail files — classic tools for manicure

What is needed first thing to make a perfect manicure? Of course, a nail file and a large number of different tools such as nail scissors, manicure nippers, a nail spatula, orange tree sticks and a buffing block. Every woman and every nail stylist has a variety of professional nail files.

A nail file is a special manicure tool that is designed to shape the shape and length of the nails.

Files for nails — how to choose the right one

Nail files are distinguished on the basis of such characteristics as the material from which they are produced, shape and grit level.

• 

  Extra coarse, grit level 80-100 — such a file is the hardest and can only be used for shaping the shape and length of extended nails. The application of such a file to the nail plate has to be very gentle, so as not to harm the nail plate during use.

• Coarse, grit level 100-180 — such a nail file is called as a classic file. This is because it is used by every nail stylist. It is suitable for shaping the shape and length of natural , as well as extended nails. It can be used when working with hybrid polish, nail extension gel, polygel and acrylic.

• Fine, grit level 240-500 — such a nail file is suitable for final smoothing of the plate and for correction of the shape and length of natural or extended nails.

• Extra fine and buffers, grit level 600-5000 — is suitable for levelling the surface of the nails, matting and glossing the plate (depending on the desired effect). 

Also, it is worth remembering to use files of different grits for the nail plate in the correct order. Use extra coarse manicure file first, and extra fine and buffers last. The best nail file for beginner nail stylists is a file with grit level 180/240 file, which is suitable for all stages of doing nail art.

Professional nail files — types of shapes and material

• 

  Straight shape — is universal and suitable for almost all stages of nail design.

• Banana shape — is suitable for shortening and filing of natural and extended nails. The nail file is gentle when working around cuticles.

• Half-moon shape — is a combination of straight and banana shape. This shape is very popular among nail stylists, for the reason that it is comfortable to work with and is suitable for all stages.

• Ellipse shape — is suitable for both natural nail plate and extended nails. With the help of such a shape, you can reach the most difficult places and achieve a perfect result of the nail design done.

• Buff — primarily used to level and smooth the nail plate. It is suitable for use when performing classic, hybrid, gel and acrylic manicures. It can be used to matte and shine nails.

Files for nails are made from 3 materials:

• Paper — is the cheapest and most commonly used material for producing nail files. Such files have different grits and are suitable for all stages of nail styling. These cosmetic files have the disadvantage of a short useful life, as they are treated more as a disposable manicure tool.

• Glass — is a very gentle material and such nail files are fine-grained. They are suitable for gentle treatment of natural nails, and can sometimes be used for gel or acrylic nails. The disadvantage is the fragility of such a file.

• Metal — nail file made of such material is very resistant to any damage and has a long useful life. However, it is not suitable for sensitive and normal nails, rather it is used for thick and hard nails.
