Nail drills are used on both men and women.

      The main purpose of a nail drill is to file the fingernail or toenail to a length and width that's workable and pleasing to the eye. Nail drills are most commonly used when a traditional nail file isn't sufficient because someone' s fingernails or toenails are extra thick. Very thick nails often take too long to file with a hand file, because thicker nails have more layers and are more resistant to the basic tools used for manicures and pedicures.

    Who Uses Them

    Where They're Used
