How to file beautiful nails? How to file square, round, and glass nails

1. Tips for filing your nails

  • The first thing when filing your nails is to choose a soft file (a file with a high grit number, usually 240 grit) to avoid tearing your nails.
  • File in a certain direction, avoid filing back and forth like a saw. The advice is to gradually file down the middle of the nail before shaping.
  • Hold the file straight when filing your nails .
  • If your nails are dry, brittle, and tend to break, do not soak your hands in soapy water before getting a manicure.
  • Don't file too close to the edges of your nails because this will make your nails weak and brittle.
  • If you accidentally file your nails too short and they haven't had time to grow out, paint your nails with a neutral nude color to create the illusion of being longer than usual.

2. Pay attention to how you file your nails

  • When filing to the top of the nail, you should hold the file perpendicular to the nail.
  • The way to file square nails is to hold the file so that it is parallel to the side edge of the nail. Don't file the edges at an angle as this will cause the nail to chip and break easily.
  • Finally, soften or round the corners to create your desired nail shape (e.g. square nails, pointed nails, round nails, etc.)
