Electronic files are important because they make getting your nails done easier. Not only do they reduce the physical labor required for manicures/pedicures, they also increase precision and efficiency. If you're a professional manicurist, there's really no reason not to use an electronic file.

Read on for a compilation of some of the best tips and tricks for getting the most out of this tool.

Removing acrylics is one of the most obvious uses for an electronic file. To remove lifted acrylic, you should use a tapered drill bit to thin the acrylic product close to the cuticle. Then, move the drill bit from side to side to keep it flat. This should take off the product.

Preparing a full set of nails becomes even easier with an electronic file. This process uses an abrasive belt and a diamond/coarse silicone drill bit. With an electronic file, you can use a flat drill bit to smooth out each nail and remove dead skin around the cuticle.

Cleaning between the toes is another great way to use an electronic file. You can do this by using a roller drill bit to gently remove dead skin and other buildup. This will leave the client's skin feeling smooth and silky.

Using an electronic file to shape your nails will save you a lot of time and energy.

Using a power drill to remove calluses is an easy way to go the extra mile during your pedicure. You can use a cone or barrel drill to smooth dry, hardened skin on your feet. This technology will definitely make your life easier.

There are so many ways to use electronic files that it’s impossible to list them all here. As any nail technician knows, the more you practice with an electric file, the more proficient you become and the more tricks you'll discover. The opportunities seem endless.

Remember, only professionals should use electronic nail drills. You should not attempt the above methods without proper training and supervision. Electronic files are powerful, but in the wrong hands they can be dangerous!
