I am a combination girl! A bit if efiling, soak off both hands in 7 minutes and finish by hand filing. This, for me, is the fastest. Have not yet tried peel base and I’m just about to embark on the builder gel journey! All takes time by trial and error but it’s an adventure. I couldn’t do it without all your tips and guidance Marla! You are the best, 💕!

Just bought me a Melodysusie a few months back knowing i wanted to get away from the pure aceton also. Didn't even no how to use until I watched some of your videos.. i wish I knew a good carbine bit to get.. i guess the search is on.. that's how I found you. You have such a pleasant and engaging speaking voice when sharing all your knowledge on nails. And I love your wit! Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into the tutorials.

So I have a quick question. If I am going to work on my left hand, I place the e- file In my right and then put the knob on the "R" for reverse?? I know, newbies at it again.😂😂 Just wanted to make sure I understood this correctly. Thank you so much for your time. Have an amazing day 💅😬

@MarlaKris Год назад

@@susancampbell8106 lol I got you! So when the efile is in your right hand, you’ll be in F (forward) pulling towards you. When the efile is in your left hand, you’ll be in R (reverse) also pulling towards you. Basically, you want the rotation to be opposite of the direction your going (if you’re moving clockwise, the rotation should be counterclockwise)

File off only from the very beginning 😁 I made myself get familiar with the bits and practicing on my husband, myself, and my teens.☺️ I couldn't imagine soaking off and I've tried peel base, not a huge fan. Still trying to find that sweet spot. Kinda frustrating when you can master transfer foil gel and transfer foils, waterslide decals, blooming gel etc. But peel base has been a struggle smh. Loved the tutorial and the only suggestion I have is seasoning your sanding band just like you would a fresh hand file so there's no nipping of the skin!

@LASartor 2 года назад

I’m a newbie to all this, got that Markatt dippie kit, but even as careful as I can be, the top coat brush hardens after a use or two. Is there another top coat or kit you recommend? Thanks for any help.

@MarlaKris 2 года назад

Hey love! Sometimes that can happen when the brush is exposed to the activator for too long. I like to wipe the nails off with a dry paper towel before top coat. Then, after each nail, wipe the brush on a paper towel. That’ll help to avoid future contamination 💕

Very informative. Thank you! I have a couple Melody Susie drills but love the Atena because I was always fighting with cords. I usually file a lot of the dip off then brief soak in acetone to get rest off. I will start putting clear underneath. I am not sure if I would dare file that much off though. I have improved but there was a lot of trial and error in the process. 🙂

I use the method of soaking in acetone and I hated it, because my nails feels weird, a week ago I bought the e file and loved it, it's super fast! I also usually put a layer of clear construction gel to strengthen my nail, and helps a lot to don't hurt the nail and know when to stop filing.

@caroly5162 2 года назад

Marla I love watching your videos. I have taken the journey with you and learned so so much. Lets talk efiles. When I got a little confidence I bought a Melody Susie entry level efile. It was inexpensive and I can definitely clean up my cuticles before and after applying dip. I have tried to remove dip with it, but I am thinking it isn't strong enough. I just checked and it's highest level is 20,000 rpm. Not strong enough? It just seems to be able to handle taking off the shine. Then I must soak. I would love to just file. Is it the file? Or is it my technique? If it is too weak I am retired so I have to be frugal with my choices if I must buy a new one...

@MarlaKris 2 года назад

Hey love! It’s more likely than not the efile. It’s simply not powerful enough. I prefer a 30-35k rpm especially for removal.

@valerie022848 2 года назад

I'm an e-file person for removal. For me, it's safer, easier, and faster than any other method. Do remember to prep the sanding band before using! They can be sharp, and can cut you.

I think what confuses me is the layer of clear underneath? Is the goal to leave that as intact as possible and put the fresh mani over it? Or does that come off when you use the buffing block?

The clear acts as a protective layer o you minimize the risk of damaging the natural nail during file off. You can completely remove it or dip right over it!

Hey lovebug! Welcome to the family!! I can definitely help with that. You can actually make any dip base slower drying! Apply the base but don’t dip. Let it just dry.

I'm definitely a 'soak off' kind of girl. I use a tray, cotton balls and HOT water. I can do each nail in 4-5 minutes (as long as it's not glitter I'm taking off). I don't mind getting a bit of my skin in acetone. This method, for ME, is fast, easy...and I can be on with my next dip.

Glitters can be so stubborn!! Def my pet peeve of all things nails 😂

I'm right there with you...the E-file scares me after going to the salon for about 15 years and having my overlay dremeled off. I'll sit and soak my dip powder off in my bowl of hot water & Zip lock baggies ❤

I always use clear under my color because of the amazing blue stains I had on my nails from the one time I didn't. 😆

I do the polygel nails pretty often now, they're almost IMPOSSIBLE to soak off, so of course I have to file off. Should I use a build gel or something under those, or is the clear base gel good enough?

@MarlaKris 2 года назад

Oof yeah.. polygel is HORRIBLE to soak! As long as you go super slow, you should be fine. But if you’re more comfy with a layer of clear polygel or builder gel underneath, that’s totally ok too! 💕

I do both efile and soak the color is off in like 12 minutes.

I've just purchased my 1st e-file ever because this is how I want to remove my mani. So tired of the other method, soaking has never been good for me.

Which efile did you grab? Remember, practice makes progress.. there’s definitely a learning curve. But you’ll get it!! 💕
