Sorry hun, i've been out and so not replied. There is a lot of controversy and prejudice about the use of drills - or e-files. Like any tool if used properly in a skilled,trained hand then it's not a problem.
However if your tech constantly nicks your skin with it, or over files and causes friction burns and you come away with your nails and skin feeling sore then this is not good - not matter what type of file they use.
Make sure you find a salon that has ...
- a proper client consultation which is recorded on a record card at each visit
- proper sanitation (minimum of which is use a sanitising gel by both tech and client -tech should use this again if she blows her nose etc during treatment-, metal tools kept in barbicide or similar which must be regularly changed
- interest in the health of the natural nail
- no nipping of skin with tools so that is bleeds
- no filing friction burns
- full after care advice
- good customer service skills
You can use non acetone remover to remove the airbrush design as this should just be acrylic paint sealed with a top coat.
However the tips should NOT be cracking and so you need to return to the salon to get them to sort it out for you, or advise you if you have done something wrong.
As to training there are many places open to you. If you do a search on here
