Machines for manicure and pedicure are presented in a huge variety, and a detailed analysis of the device and a description of the characteristics will help you choose the right model.
The tendency to care for your body never went out of fashion. Every year it becomes easier and simpler, because beauty salons offer their professional services using special equipment in their arsenal.
This trend has not bypassed nail care. In particular, the emergence of mechanized machines for manicure and pedicure greatly fits the procedure. All sorts of nail files, tweezers, nippers, etc., of course, are used by craftsmen, but 90% of the processing of the nail plate and cuticle is due to the apparatus.
Basic tips on choosing the device
How to choose a machine for manicure and pedicure, because this kind of devices are presented in a huge variety in specialized stores? At first glance, their only differences lie in price and appearance. In fact, the choice is based on the following indicators:
- Power. Craftsmen in the salons use technology with a high speed of rotation, notches, but for home use they are not suitable in any way. In addition, the cost of powerful devices is significantly higher.
- Cord and its location. Its length should be optimal so as not to interfere in the process. If the cord is twisted, turned, assembled into a knot, then it is better not to give preference to such machines.
- Convenience handles. It should be a bit heavy. Often, their weight ranges from 150 to 200 grams. This is necessary so that in the process it does not vibrate, but under its own weight is clearly kept in hand.
- The number of nozzles. Good models of hardware machines already have a large number of nozzles included. Of course, they can be purchased separately, but much better when the manufacturer took care of its customers in advance and completed the product with a large number of mills and files.
- Foot control (pedal).
- Known and proven manufacturer.
The use of machines for manicure and pedicure is not limited to a beauty salon. They can be used as an assistant at home, only with a few basic points.
Professional manicure and pedicure machine in the salon
Consider the criteria for the selection of professional machines for manicure and pedicure salon. Professional masters use machines with a speed of 40 thousand revolutions per minute and with a power of up to 100 watts.
Improper use of such equipment can cause injuries and damage. And the case may not end up with only a wound or cut, you can cause serious damage to the nail plate or the skin around the nail.
In beauty salons, wizards use foot control to facilitate work. In this case, the operation of the device depends entirely on the degree of depression: the harder the pedal is, the faster the nozzle will rotate.
Since a large number of people pass through the master, the device must have a built-in vacuum cleaner. Maintaining cleanliness in the workplace and general hygiene is an important condition in the work, so you should not neglect this item.
Yes, and allergic reactions that manifest themselves from flaky skin particles and nail dust, may appear in the master not immediately, but after several months of work, even in a sterile mask.
Devices for salon use also differ in cost. Most often, reputable manufacturers are preferred so that after a few years of constant use the equipment does not become unusable.
The choice of cars for home use
As a device for home use, it is not worth it to excel and spend huge amounts of money on expensive models. What are the subtleties to pay attention when choosing a home machine for hardware manicure and pedicure?
So, it is worth choosing among models with a power up to 60 W and a speed of 30 thousand revolutions per minute. The use of technology with great performance without professional skills is fraught with various consequences.
Included with the machine is a lot of nozzles. Most of them are not useful for home use, since the power of the apparatus or the skills to use will simply not be enough. Most often used no more than 5 tips.
Separate attention deserve the dimensions of technology. If the workplace is small and too bulky, the machine will obviously interfere, then you should give preference to another manufacturer with a different variable form of the product.
Nozzles for cars and their use
There are several types of nozzles for hardware manicure, differing in material. In particular, the following types are distinguished:
- Diamond cutters. Considered professional and durable. Used for processing side sections of nails, rollers and cuticle.
- Ceramic. They are the safest in all respects and are great for beginners as a training.
- Carbide from metals. Nozzles of this material are used primarily to process the rough skin of the feet, remove the acrylic layer from the nail plate, or remove dead skin and calluses.

In such cases, a review of several models will help, with the goal of eliminating unnecessary options immediately and focusing on the main objects. Among the best models of machines for hardware manicure and pedicure are:
- Strong 90/102. The equipment of this manufacturer is a favorite in the market. Fully equipped models, high performance and durability are key factors in these products. The cost of Strong machines starts around 15 thousand rubles.
- RuNail. In the line of this manufacturer there is a different technique, differing from each other in power and equipment. The most popular products for home procedures, equipped with a foot control, multiple cutters and reverse rotation control. The cost is very democratic and varies around 5 thousand rubles.
- Marathon Champion Model with a power of 40 W and a speed of 35 thousand revolutions per minute is a prominent representative of machines for hardware manicure and pedicure at home. For personal use, such a model can be purchased at a price of 9 thousand rubles.
- Mercedes A relatively inexpensive machine (2,000 rubles on average), characterized by high performance. Many prefer this model because of the cost, as well as the presence in the kit 6 diamond-coated tips that are well suited for processing the nail plate both in the salon and at home.

How to use the machine for manicure and pedicure? It is important to know about such details in which it is impossible to carry out procedures for hardware manicure. These include the following nuances:
- do not use the machine on the wet hands of the client;

- repeat the procedure can be 2 times a month;
- to extend the life of a low-power device for home use, it is recommended to give it a “rest” every 15 minutes.

- wipe the device, the nozzle and the handle of the router with special antibacterial liquids from dust particles (cosmetic alcohol is suitable for this purpose).
In general, car care is not a big deal. The only thing that in the case of obvious malfunctions in the performance of technology should contact the workshops.
Reviews from users of machines for hardware manicure
In order to make the right choice, potential customers often turn to reviews from real buyers. Based on them, conclusions can be drawn that make a purchase a not so complicated procedure.
I got a professional typewriter from the firm Strong 90/102 2 years ago. I use it exclusively for household purposes. Nabil, as they say, and with pleasure I do manicure to girlfriends in the free time. Of the shortcomings of the model, I would note the high cost, but it is completely covered by the fact that the device is considered professional. Indeed, for so many years of use, he never failed me, and manicure with him is a pleasure to do. About trips to the salon forgot. P.S. It did not turn out right away; at first, due to the high power, she experienced discomfort when working. After several weeks of training, I adapted to him.
Galina Samoilova, 25 years old, Chelyabinsk
As a home assistant for a manicure, I bought a Mercedes 2000. Having read reviews, I chose a long time between this device and a model from RuNail. I think I made the right choice! The work is fully satisfied, performs its functions at 100%. Without problems, I now process my nails at home, without spending a certain amount in the cabin (in some they are prohibitively high!). Sometimes I make friends for a nominal fee. If you think that you have to visit the master about 2 times a month, then I paid for the cost of the machine a long time ago! Happy!
