FAQs

Do I need a nail drill to do my nails at home?

Unless you have especially thick or long nails, you should be fine using a manual nail file in place of a drill for nails. Nail drills can be damaging if not used properly; it may be best to leave them to the professionals.

How do I use an NSI nail drill?

Nail drills can be used to prepare natural nails or to shape and remove acrylic nails. Each NSI nail drill comes with all the instructions you need to use it safely and effectively. If you still need help or have more questions after reading the instructions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our team.

What nail drill bits do I need to go with my NSI nail drill?

We carry a wide range of mandrels, sanding bands and barrel bits for sanding. If you need to remove gel or acrylic deposits, a cone bit is a perfect choice. If you do nails professionally, you may also need cuticle cleaners, under-nail cleaners and other specialty bits. Our beginner drill bit kit also includes all the most basic pieces you’ll need.

How do I know which drill bits to use?

It all comes down to what you're working on! If you're removing gel or acrylic, go for a coarse barrel or cone nail bit. Sanding bands are great for prepping the nail surface, while cuticle bits help clean around the nail bed gently. For smoothing and finishing touches, reach for buffer or rubber bits. If you're new to nail drills, we recommend starting with a beginner drill bit kit, so you can get to know each nail bit and its job before diving into advanced techniques.

What are the different drill bits on a nail drill?

Nail drill bits come in all kinds of shapes, materials and textures. Each one is designed to do a specific job and help you slay your set. Here are the most common types:

• Barrel bits — Perfect for surface work and shortening nails with ease.

• Cone bits — Great for reaching those tricky spots like sidewalls and under the nail’s free edge.

• Mandrel bits and sanding bands — Ideal for prepping and smoothing the nail before your magic begins.

• Rubber or silicone bits — Used for buffing and polishing to get that flawless finish.

• Diamond or ceramic bits — Known for being super strong and precise, they're great for serious shaping and gel polish removal.

• Metal mandrel bits — Effective in removing gel coatings.

• Rounded safety bits — Designed to be used around the cuticle without fear of damaging the nail.

Unsure which bit to pick? Don’t stress. Reach out to our friendly team anytime, and we’ll help you choose the perfect tools to nail your next at-home manicures.

Can beginners use portable nail drills?

Yes, we have portable nail drills that are easy to use and provide you with all safety instructions. That said, keeping your nail drill bits hygienic is crucial. Keep in mind that certain drill bits cannot be cleaned or sterilised and are meant to be one-time use only, so make sure you are familiar with the different types of nail drill bits available for sale online. Also, not all nail drill bits are meant for use on natural nails, so learning to use the correct types for the right purpose is necessary for all beginners.
