Pam, This is a subject near and dear to me. One of the reason's I picked up the reigns of E-File Education is because of this very thing.
Using a brand new file for each and every client is the best thing we can do to protect ourselves and our clients from bacteria. It's good proof. I used to disinfect and store files for each client years ago thinking I was doing a good thing. The fact of the matter is, that if something cannot be washed and then soaked in a disinfectant for the required amount of time, than it's a one use throw away item. There are many resources out there (Like Nailite) for inexpensive files. Your other option is, of course, an E-File. I've cut back my hand filing by 80% by learning to use an E-File for just about everything including doing dry manicures. I don't use a file AT ALL when doing pedicures, even shaping. Our E-File Certification program is designed to help you understand in workings, maintenance and safety precautions of an E-File and bits. It helps to take away and fears or misgivings you have. And instructs you on how to use it fully, safely and effectively. Please visit our website to see the curriculum and feel free to email or call me with any questions you may have. warm regards, Simmy Bredal-Bell E-File Certification Director [email protected] Hackettstown, NJ (707) 5-E-File-C (533-4532) www.efilecertification.com small twitter iconTwitter: EfileC small facebook-iconFacebook: E-File-Certification (EFC) From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2012 12:54 AM To: [email protected] Subject: NailTech:: Files vs E-files Hi Teks, here in Ohio, the State Board of Cos. has decreed that we use a brand new file for each client each and every time. I had been cleaning, sanitizing (uv sterilizer) and then keeping their files separate for their use only. Now... this is gonna cost a pretty penny per service to use a new file each and every time. I have thought about using the e-file to do the entire service, instead of just cleaning under the nail like I do now. However, I have huge misgivings about using the e-file to do the entire service. How do you take off length? How do you do natural nails? I can see where the e-file would be good for blending and taking any thickness off the acrylic, but I'm not sure its a good idea to use on gels and natural nails. Now what do I do?
