Okay, if it's too difficult for for you Now I prefer my nails a little bit more oval So I will stay under the nail, but I will work a little bit more on the sides of the nail When I go on the side Here pay attention that you stay under the nail. Don't file On the nail because there's a risk to to make ingrown nails. So I will work More on the sides, let's stay under the nail Just because I prefer a more oval almond shape so file on the sides and try to file as Every the two sides the same We always file to the center of the nail if you want a more oval shape and Stay under the nail if you are happy with The length and the shape you can stop you will have to remove the dust if you have a nail brush It's better so you can brush the dust on the nail if you don't have it You do it like like this to take the dust away.
