I don’t always wear makeup, my hair can be a mess, my outfits aren’t always on point. I’m also kind of, sort of, really obsessed with nails and nail polish. I always found it to be very soothing and relaxing, which was one of the reasons why I always did them myself.ītw, did you know that first acrylic nails were invented by a dentist who broke his fingernail at work? The more you know…. yeah… thank God those days are gone! I’d spend hours and hours playing with my acrylic sets, filing, painting and filling my nails. You know, the long pink fake nails with a thick, french tip….

In High School, I was obsessed with acrylics. If you prefer to use your own favorite brand of nail bits, make sure that your drill is compatible with other brands.Being a nail polish addict ( hoarder?) that I am, I definitely don’t talk about nails here on the blog, often enough.

Typically, you wouldn't max out the speed on your nail drill.īut again, let's just reiterate: these are pro tools that can do major damage if you're not careful. 25,000-35,000 RPM is the maximum RPM speed and should only be used by serious professionals.

15,000-25,000 RPM can tackle acrylics, remove or shape poly gel, remove gel polish, or shape your nails.0-15,000 RPM typically works for natural nails, buffing, or little touch-ups.It's important to clarify the specs beforehand, as the RPM levels of a nail drill indicate what you can do with it. The RPM-i.e., rotations per minute-is how fast an electric drill will rotate.

Lal explains that damage to the cuticle could cause damage to the nail beds, which can result in the development of horizontal nail ridges-i.e., ridges that form due to injury, skin condition, or illness. Nail drills can also remove your cuticles, which protect your nail beds from foreign substances. 'Risks of nail drills include thinning out the nail plate too much, which can lead to thin, fragile nails.' Sure, you can easily buy and use a nail drill at home, but dermatologist Karan Lal says that just because you can, doesn't mean you should. I also compiled expert reviews and tapped board-certified dermatologist Karan Lal, MD, about all the deets on nail drills, below:
