You won’t achieve clean cuticles… if you’re making these 3 mistakes 👇🏻

1️⃣ First - you’re not sure what you’re working with. Dry skin or nail?

2️⃣ Second - you don’t know what can be cut and how much to remove.

3️⃣ And third - you’re lost in all the bits and you’re lacking a skin types.

❌ The problem is not in your hands.
✅ It’s lack of work system.

What you need is a repeatable step-by-step pattern, that will allow you to achieve perfect cuticles using just 1 drill bit. 🔥

These are things that help me work faster 💅🏻

1️⃣ I work with sharp, fresh drill bits
For Russian manicure, I replace them regularly so they stay precise and efficient. A dull bit always slows you down and makes the work harder than it needs to be.

2️⃣ My client chooses the colour at the very beginning
No delays, no standing there comparing shades once the nails are already prepped. Everything flows better.

3️⃣ I use highly pigmented gel colours that cover beautifully
Less layering, fewer corrections, cleaner application and more time saved.

4️⃣ I work with products I know inside out
My go-to builder gels and products are tested, reliable and predictable. I know how they move, how they self-level and how to control them properly.

5️⃣ My desk stays organised
Everything has its place and stays within reach.

I follow one rule ⬇️
Use it → put it back → continue working
No chaos. No wasted movement. No lost time.

Chrome always gets the compliments… but here’s the truth 👀✨

Chrome only looks clean, smooth and luxury when the base underneath is flawless.
If your prep isn’t clean or your gel application isn’t precise, chrome will highlight every bump, lump and mistake.

That’s why I always say: if your prep isn’t perfect, nothing else will be.

Want nails that look expensive before the chrome even goes on?

My Builder Boss training will show you how to master clean prep, flawless cuticles and no-filing gel application.

A properly cleansed nail plate, free from cuticle tissue, has a huge impact on the longevity of any nail set. ✨

If that tissue isn’t fully removed or the prep is done carelessly you can expect lifting around the cuticle area. And it’s not the product’s fault.

It’s the technique.

If you want to learn:
✨ how to prep the cuticle area correctly
✨ what order to do everything in
✨ why each step matters
✨ how to use the e-file with confidence, not guesswork

I’ll teach you Russian Mani step by step during my BUILDER BOSS training 💪
✨ If you’re ready to level up your sets - visit the link in my bio or head to soniasudak.com to enrol.

What I’m about to say… you’re really not going to like.

It’s not dry skin 🤯

Have you noticed your clients keep coming back with those little skin
build-ups? You prep the cuticles carefully… and it still comes back?

What I’m about to say… you’re really not going to like.

While working on the cuticles with your e-file, you're over filing the nail plate in the sinus area with the edge of the bit.
Maybe with a cone bit or a flame bit.

The cone bit pressed too hard against the nail plate.
Or the flame bit dropped too quickly into that area.

And let me tell you something even worse.

If you don’t learn how to properly prep and work the cuticles to avoid this, you’ll keep losing clients.

Or maybe you already are 😶‍🌫️

If you’re ready to finally fix this and create clean, long-lasting results, enroll in my Builder Boss course through the link in my BIO.
I’ll show you exactly how to work safely in the sinus area and prevent these problems for good.

A lot of beginners think they need every new gadget, every fancy tool, every expensive setup to create beautiful nails.

Truthfully? You don’t.

Some of the best in the industry work with surprisingly basic equipment, because results come from technique, not clutter.

Knowing how to use the right essentials will always take you further than owning everything.

If you want to learn what actually matters, follow me. I’ll show you the difference between buying more… and learning better. ✨
