Removing Color with an E File: Common Mistakes

Greg Salo goes through the Do’s and Don’ts of electric filing while showing you how to easily remove the color from an acrylic or hard gel nail. He uses the new Tornado bit to remove most of the color and details the edges with diamond square and tapered bits.

“How do two brothers get into the nail care business?” This is the single most common question people ask us. There’s a long and rocky version but we’ll give you the short one. We have our fearless and unconventional mother, Young Salo, to thank. With a single-minded entrepreneurial spirit, she decided to start her own business at the age of 49. She had a passion for the nail industry and we did everything in our power to support her. In the end, this is a family business.
Greg, the older brother, became a licensed nail technician after switching gears from fire fighter’s training. He is energy personified and has a true passion for developing the best professional nail care products and education. Habib is the younger brother. He jumped in a few years later; taking a detour from medical school and a life in music. He brings his own creative mind for business, marketing and strategy. Unexpectedly, we are a perfect team.
Today, more than 20 years later, Young Nails Inc., is a professional nail care manufacturing company exporting to over 40 countries worldwide and distributing domestically to over 3000 stores. We’re respected for our next-level product innovation and education. Our mission is to bring you the best quality products and we’ll show you how to use them with incredible results. It’s really that simple.
Welcome to the Young Nails family!

I cannot express how excited I am to see you using these bits. I have used them as part of my removal and prep routine for, at least, a year. Along with my Young Nails (R) safety bit for finish work, it's a class act :). Thanks guys!! (And ladies! :))

[@angelagebensleben4414]

I love watching you teach. The detail you give is awesome. So informative.

[@erintraicene7422]

Older video but this is one of your best efile instruction videos. I’ve watched dozens and dozens but the format here is excellent and how clear the info is deserves a comment today. I always felt I was bad at an efile because I couldn’t do it “side to side” without it spinning around my practice hand. And I felt like I wanted to switch it to these demonstrated directions but that it wasn’t “right”. So I really needed permission to do what Felt right. Thanks!

[@geidyhidalgo5893]

[@sheilanoneyabiz9379]

I do the exact technique 😍. lol, I thought I was doing it wrong the whole time because I found it difficult and painful going side to side. I never went through school to learn how to do nails however I’d never call myself a professional whatsoever. I do nails for myself and daughter, the reason is that I’m fully disabled and losing the use of my hands from carpal tunnel. I figure it helps me to keep muscle in my hands and I’m not stuck watching tv or four walls ALL DAY 😊. I do thank you for all your help, I cannot go places easily. Matter of fact the only places I do go to are my doctor appointments. I don’t get much joy in life anymore. Tbh lately I don’t even want to be around. Anyhow thank you for everything, I love all you videos 💯😘💕

[@youngnailsinc]

Happy to hear the videos help, and definitely agree it is probably good to practice the range of motion somewhat

[@Starfyre365]

But sweetie, you said you do you & your daughter's nails. I'm sure she would be heartbroken when you wont be around. These mother daughter moments are meant to be cherished for many years TOGETHER. Don't let your disability be the boss of you! You are stronger than you know. 🙂🙂🙂

Thank you so much for this video. I was flipping my barrel and nipped my own finger, very painful. So I figured out this was the best way but wasn't sure if it was right because of being told to file that way? So I'm very happy that you've cleared that up.. I'm now reassured. 💝💝

I'm a beginner with nails as a self taught artist.. I made the mistake at the beginning when starting out going back and forth when removing gel polish over dip powder or hybrid gel enhancements. So now I know it's easier to go in smaller steps. 💕💕💕

The Vietnamese nail girls in Australia have had no formal training and go side to side. I say “no filing” and my skin can’t handle soaking in acetone anymore so It’s why I do my own nails and have finally bought an e file!!! Thanks for the great video. Very helpful.

Thanks Greg! Such great advice and information and execution on your explanation!!👏👏👏👏👏 . Makes sense to go from cuticles to free edge as that's how we apply the acrylic,gels,and gel polishes .

[@mimiburgers5106]

Love you guys. Very informative. So i have just started learning and teaching myself and yes i went side to side.... but with a sanding band... thought it would take less off at a time... well i ended up with miniature craters in my own nails and some very thin spots on my nails... now patiently waiting for my mistakes to grow out.🤬 Will be a few months though. Lickily a new coat of gel hides a lot. Lol. I really find it hard doing my own.. can you guys possibly do a video on filing your own nails with tips?

[@youngnailsinc]

Will consider something like that for sure

[@sonaild7843]

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR THIS !!! I couldn’t figure out why I lose control of the bit on the nail and I hate using my efile because of it ! This was extremely helpful

THANK YOU!

Yep you just grab a new replacement tip. As for the efile I just explain to clients this is how I do nails and I am highly trained with my tools. I wouldn't go to a Dr and tell them what tools they could and couldn't use.
