E-File Prep & Technique
Beginner | £189 | 1 Day
The tool that will transform the way you work — learn to use it safely and confidently from day one.
​
You've completed your nail service courses and you're now ready to work smarter. Our E-File Prep & Technique Course introduces you to one of the most valuable tools in a nail tech's kit - and teaches you how to use it correctly, safely, and professionally from the very beginning.
​
An e-file (electric nail file) is a motorised tool used to speed up and refine preparation work, cuticle care, and product removal. When used correctly, it improves the quality of your work, saves you time, and elevates your overall standard. When used incorrectly, it can cause damage - which is exactly why proper training matters.
​
This is a full practical day with live demonstrations. You'll work on yourself, getting hands-on practice from start to finish.
