I’m not a nail tech but I love getting my nails done or watch your videos and I thought this was how people cleaned them ALWAYS, couldn’t think anybody doing it differently! Shows how important it is to teach people stuff regardless of how obvious or simple it may seem to some. You’re great as always ❤.
This is the best tip i’ve ever heard. Yes i’ve tried this tip out for myself & it really, truly does work. Thank you for sharing this lifesaver tip. It has been a massive blessing.
Thank you!!!!!!! 😩 Everyone is always like “use soap and water.” Gosh, I’ve even used a brush with metal bristles, and a needle. Suzie to the rescue with the real answers! ❤️
Mama Susie!!! How’d you know I needed to know that?!?! Btw, your odorless monomer is AMAZINGLY INCREDIBLE AND A LIFESAVER FOR AT-HOMERS, like me!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Can you please direct me to a link? I’m an at-homer. I couldn’t find my go to brand on Amazon (Canni) so I bought another brand to try because the bottles were pretty pink (Aimeili) and they stink to high heaven. Legit they make me cough Just from the smell. A bit concerning honestly. 😬 Should I be concerned? Even after they are very well cured, they still stink. 😂🥲😵💫
Nail fairy, thanks to you I learned how to clean my bits which I really thank you for. 💜🙏🏻 I've got a question though: Can I clean my ceramic bits with acetone? Is this trick suitable for all kinds of bits? Thank you in advance! 🥰
I remember my grandpa needed acetone for something with home improvement or something. My cousin and I came out with our bottles and he asked if he could use it and get us a new one. He had no idea it worked for nails.
@@NailCareerEducation You’re right, Barbicide won’t dissolve acrylic, and acrylic should never enter the Barbicide solution because it contaminates it and makes it unusable. I believe they were saying typically they can just scrub all the residue off with soap and water, then sanitize it with Barbicide. My state does not recognize acetone as a sanitizer, and you *have* to scrub & use Barbicide after each use of drill bits by law. But this trick of soaking in acetone before scrubbing and Barbicide is really helpful for when it gets really gunked up!
Sometimes I may still have a little left over in the grooves so I take a super small something like a needle bit, and run it through the grooves and back in the acetone
try rubbing alcohol if your are using a water based paint like acrylic or you can use the masters brush cleaner. because acetone is a solvent that will eat through to to the glue. same with rubbing alcohol but I have found its less harsh.
@@longlivesoca I am pretty sure you throw them away. Because they aren’t meant to be used on more than 1 person and more than a couple of times if it just you that is using them
Medical grade alcohol is a major good disinfectant as well I believe, taking extra steps to be even more clean and disinfected with your tools and stuff, guarantees that they are most definitely safe to use medical grade alcohol, letting them sit and cleaning solution along with sanitizing and cleaning them very thoroughly I’m just very Exter I go an extra one 2 to 4 steps to definitely ensure that those tools are disinfected
I did my nails with an acrylic nail set from shoppers and I didn’t have nail polish remover so the time I was almost done my nails my brush was hard lol very sad
Another good way to clean bits is to put the tip in rubbing alcohol and the flick the switch on your e-file on a few times and most the gunk will just come flying off into the isopropyl alcohol
@@NailCareerEducation well it works for me...? I've been doing it with acrylic and polygel and gel the entire time I've been doing nails and it's always worked to pull the particles of already filed product off. Now if I were to directly tip my tip into monomer and then into acrylic powder like it looks like you did here, then yeah I'd need to actually break down the not previous destructed acrylic by using acetone. But no one I know has any practical use for dipping their bit into monomer and then powder like that.
