Dry manicure with CND Shellac. Please Do Not attempt using e-file if you are not properly trained how to use it on natural nails. Done improperly e-filing can cause serious damage to the nail plate. * CND recommends a dry manicure before using their Wear Extender Base Coat, so I use e-file on a minimum speed with a special bit designed for natural nails to remove the cuticle. Note how there is almost no dust coming off the nail. Cuticle is a very think and transparent tissue that is stuck to the nail. I only remove cuticle and I don't file the natural nail. * Filing back-and-forth is ok as long you use a proper grit. Filing nails in 1 direction rule has been debunked a while ago. What matters when it comes to the finish of the free edge is a grit and not direction. I finish with a buffer block on the free edge so the end of the nail is beautiful and smooth. As you can see non of my clients (and myself) have any issues with peeling or damage. Peeling comes from nail surface damage or nail weakness and not how the nail is filed on the end. Damaged nail is like a loose fabric. It is very flimsy and fraying all the time. Strong and healthy nail is like a tight fabric that is reinforced with waxes so it doesn’t fray. Too tight of a surface will shatter though (like fibreglass!) That’s why warm oil soaks are so important for damaged and peeling nails. The oil fills in spaces between the fibres keeping it all together.
