How to do a Salon Manicure at home

[carmyn87]

could you do a pedicure tutorial 

[docwondernuts]

Going to the Korean nail place pissy drunk and having them keep up my manicure is a good way to spend some time

[carmyn87]

very helpful, thanks. we are going over the nail structure today, cant wait to practice in class

[craftyladydi]

It looks like you would trim the cuticles? Wonder why you didn't...Thanks!

[galaxydreaming]

@craftyladydi I do not trim the cuticles UNLESS there is overgrown dead cuticle and visible lifting and flaking off - I don't nipper around them on the basis that this is the seal to the matrix of the nail where the cells are generating and breaking this seal creates infections. I've seen ALOT of over-nippered and inflamed cuticles from over-happy nippering therapists.

how long did it take for all of the stuff you did

[galaxydreaming]

@TheMrEizley without hand massage 30 mins, with massage 60 mins, if you add paraffin to the manicure then its 90mins... express, essential and deluxe

[TheMrEizley]

do you need long nails?

[galaxydreaming]

@TheMrEizley No I don't think so - the main time spent on a manicure is shaping and cleaning the nail plate and cuticle area - even after that is done nails look so much better : )

[galaxydreaming]

How long do you have to let it dry between layers and after topcoat? tx

[galaxydreaming]

@2622Valerie1 if you paint from pinky to pinky that's enough time between coats

[amber123155]

un she says not to buff side 2 side but yet wen i get my nails done PROFESHIONALLY they buff side to side!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[galaxydreaming]

@amber123155 they totally do hey! We were taught in beauty school not to buff side to side but once you hit the industry you definitely get taught differently. I'm not so worried about tough toenails being buffed side to side but thinner fingernails I stick to vertical buffing

@amber123155 what's profeshionally? 

[23mskaykay]

[MsReenSham]

nice video helpful.

[Makeup101cammy]

isnt removing the cuticle bad for your nails?

[galaxydreaming]

@Makeup101cammy I'm not removing the cuticles, I'm removing the built up grown over cuticle protein stuck on the nail bed. I can clip any excess cuticle but of course NEVER clip the live cuticle as it protects the matrix of the nail

[GothicBarbie001]

Are you from New Zealand? If you are, yay! Awesome vid by the way!

[GalaxyDreamingVlogs]

@GothicBarbie001 Yes I am : )

[vrushalipatki84]

I Love this video and all other sugaring videos from ur channel :) Can you upload more videos on various spa treatments we can do at home ?

[GalaxyDreamingVlogs]

@vrushalipatki84 great! I intend to make more - maybe a pedicure video and brow tinting... what kind of therapies did you have in mind?

[vrushalipatki84]

@GalaxyDreamingVlogs : May be a good Facial video?

bufaa aha 

[MokiPool]

Just a question, when I do some clients they have very dirty nails down under the sides of the nails, how do the get this clean without embarrasing the client?

[galaxydreaming]

@MokiPool hey there, the soak should help with some of the dirt in the creases and folds. otherwise a dampen a ripped off little bit of cotton pad and put that on the end of an orangestick then clean them ... people should expect that you will be cleaning them - don't worry about it being embarrassing - if they say 'omg it's so bad I'm so embarrassed' just say "noooo don't worry it perfectly normal and it's my job to clean them til they are sparkly clean' : )
