In order to achieve a squoval nail shape, you have to start with the basics. There is not much difference in the way you file squoval nails or for that any other kind of nails and you have to keep in mind certain points. Here is what you should keep in mind:
Having a good nail file is very important for filing your nails well. You can trim your nails with clippers but many women prefer to use files. Among the files you have plenty of options again and you can choose from glass files or metal files and even emery boards. Though glass files are the most common ones, you will need an emery board or metal file if you have acrylic nails.

There is just another thing you need to keep in mind while filing your nails: Don’t go overboard with your filing! There are hidden dangers lurking behind overfilling your nails and one of them is the risk of severe infection. Use files which only have 180-grits. Beyond that, you are risking broken and infected nails!
