Get cosmetic cutters for special tasks!

Used for nail styling, cutters require a sure hand and great gentleness in guiding the grinding or smoothing part. They can be made of many different materials that affect the nail plate differently. Moreover, it is important to distinguish between the materials and shapes used for natural and artificial nails. Cutters should be changed as often as needed, such as for:

• working out cuticles,
• cutting off thickenings,
• shortening nails,
• giving oval or other shapes,
• smoothing and sanding surfaces.

Nail cutters are also useful for foot care and performing pedicures. In our offer you will find a large selection of tips to create the nail design of your dreams. The ideal cutter makes your work easier and provides a unique effect. The condition for the effective use of milling cutters is the correct choice of material and gradation for working the plate.

How to use a professional milling machine for manicure and pedicure?

Whether you prefer classic styling or prefer UV-cured hybrid polishes, the proper use of a milling machine will allow you to reach a higher level in this art. Simply put - a wide selection of cutters allows for much more precise elaboration of the nail plate and the area around the nail shaft, compared to a manual knurl, file and polisher. Therefore, the use of milling cutters with interchangeable tips at different stages of modeling are irreplaceable. A set of cutters of different shapes and sizes should include:

1. ceramic cutters,
2. carbide cutters,
3. diamond cutters,
4. carbide cutters,
5. stone cutters.

With their help, you can quickly and precisely (although it requires some skill) remove the old layer of hybrid manicure, sand the edges from the free edge of the nail, work out the cuticles, level and polish the plane of the plate. This also saves a lot of time, which, combined with a perfect result, will contribute to greater comfort and satisfaction of customers with the styling.

Manicure and pedicure - always with an exceptional effect

Using the right cutters, you can perform styling in hard-to-reach places. With a single tool you can shorten the nails, give them the desired shape and finish the beautification of the nail. Cutters will help you develop both the natural plate and support in the preparation of extensions from gel mass. All you need is to skillfully choose the hardness of the friction surfaces and the speed of rotation, so as not to expose your nails to mechanical damage. After mastering the basics, the milling machine can become a household tool.

Types of cosmetic cutters

Types of cutters are defined not only in terms of the abrasive material or substance, but also considering the presence of different gradations, sizes and shapes. They can be used for any activity related to nail styling. From trimming nail plates, grinding edges, filling cavities to processing cuticles and nail shafts, there is a cutter with the right grit and matching shape for every step. In addition to the most common bits, there are also cutters with specialized uses, such as metal "rose" cutters, useful for removing corns in a podiatrist's office. Here, however, we present typically cosmetic milling machine accessories, useful both in the work of a manicurist or pedicurist, and indispensable at the podiatrist's station, who often needs to correct the shape and improve the health of toenails. It is worth mentioning that some of the cutters also prove invaluable in removing calluses on the heels and toes or in eliminating fungal conditions. Check out the basic types of cutters to consider when completing the equipment for a professional salon.

Diamond cutters

This type of milling machine bits has a reputation for being the most durable accessories. Diamond cutters wear relatively slowly, and with their help you get a precise effect. In addition, they are distinguished by a wide range of applications:

• removal of hybrids, gel, acrylic,
• grinding and cleaning of nails (conical cutter),
• removal of cuticles and calluses on the nail shaft,
• podological treatments.

Diamonds are always in vogue!

This group of cosmetic products is characterized by the presence of a diamond gradient on a stainless steel form (usually a cylinder or cone, but a ball is also frequently used). A larger gradation is used for nails, a smaller one - for cuticles. Diamond milling cutter will work well both when developing a natural plate and artificial gel mass. Diamond cutters should be used carefully - if you stop the cone spinning at high speed in one place, a depression will form there quite quickly.

Carbide cutters

Carbide burrs have special properties, which are used for selected activities during the work of a manicurist. Carbide cutters (i.e. carbide) are light and hard, in addition to being suitable for dry and wet work. That's why they are particularly suitable for removing any thickening, including from heels and peri-nail shafts. In addition, they are even made for removing old coating from nails.

All types of carbide tips

Because of the wide range of possibilities, numerous shapes of carbide-coated cutters are distinguished. The most popular are:

1. cylinder - for removing coatings, in addition, for regular treatment of the nail plate and epidermal thickening,
2. teardrop - for removing corns, shaping cuticles, processing keratinized, deformed nails,
3. ball - spot corns, smoothing the cuticles of the fingernails and toenails,
4. cone - for removing the worn coating and developing gel and acrylic mass,
5. spike - for all calluses and thickenings on hands and feet, cutters especially useful for podiatric heel cleansing procedures.

Light and hard carbide cutters are ideal for those who need more time to master the milling machine. Their undoubted advantage is that they do not transfer heat to the nail area, which can sometimes be a considerable reduction in working comfort when in prolonged contact with the surface of other cutters. Thanks to the transverse grooves, the work of milling cutters is faster, and the effect of work - modelled cuticles and nails - is easy to achieve even with a little less precision.

Ceramic cutters

Hard ceramic material forms nail cutters for cleaning the nail plate. There are products on the market in many shapes and thicknesses of characteristic protuberances made of ceramic. These types of cutters are somewhat similar to the carbide gradient, but create a more uniform surface. On the nails, they are primarily responsible for removing unnecessary residue from previous styles.

What do the colors of ceramic cutters mean?

Depending on the gradient and the material they are made of, ceramic nail cutters are available in different colors. They are identified as follows, from the finest to the thickest:

• yellow cutter,
• red cutter,
• blue cutter,
• green cutter,
• black cutter,
• pink cutter.

Ceramic cutter bits, like diamond cutters, are extremely resistant to mechanical damage. The basic material for making such a product is zirconium oxide. Ceramic milling cutters are mainly used to work with the plane of the plate, which distinguishes them from the more versatile diamond-coated tips, which can also be used to model cuticles.

Stone cutters

For matting the nail plate, stone cutters are best. A milling machine plus a cutter with a fine stone grit can even be useful for polishing nails. We offer a full set of aluminum oxide cutters. Of all the products for milling machines, the stone cutter has the finest fineness. As a result, it can be used for modeling nails and cuticles. It is a versatile tool, as it can be used to shorten the plate, shape it, remove remnants of hybrids, and matte new gel and acrylic coatings and prepare them for primer application.

Stone cutter vs gradation

Depending on the gradation and shape of the product, a slightly different effect can be achieved. Yellow stone cutters are suitable for polishing, although for this purpose it is best to get special, replaceable, disposable caps. Like most of our products, stone nail cutters remain to choose from a huge assortment. it is worth collecting and keeping on hand a larger set of tips. While customers appreciate universal products the most, professionals know how impressive results can be achieved by changing cutters with the same nails even a dozen times!
