Sure you can use acrylics, but they smell awful and when you own a busy salon, you don't spend time on mixing and it is much faster. Plus acrylic liquid is extremely flammable, gels are not.
It was good to know how a gel sculptured nail is done, but you may need to keep your clients nails straight to you when filing them :) other wise thanks for showing me how it's done !
I truly don't understand. Why not using a nail tip to make the job a lot easier and with the method being used. It's gonna take a whole to compete a set. Gel nail doesn't have to be that complicated.
Brush is big it's true but if she works with it all the time plus nail after hand file didn't look so good as after elect file and I noticed some mistakes when u applied builder gel.
The white smile line is bad....just an advice: you don't have to waste your time with posterior stripping(rasping) if you paint with all the gel in th right way.You use so big brushes..
C'mon people - it took forever because she went step by step to show you the entire process for educational purposes! I'm sure this would go much faster and smoother if she was actually just working on a client. The finished product is very beautiful though!
Very time consuming and finicky. Why anyone would want to extend their nails in this manner is beyond me. There are faster ways and your nails will turn out fantastic.
oh wow...at the start i thought to myself "this cant be right" but the finished product is AMAZING! i like it alot. Im going to get gel nails done for the first time. I dnt know if the nail tech is going to do them exactly like that but if so then i hope im not disappointed
question...so people that say these looks bad is there a different UV nail video you reccomend to watch? Im getting married in16 days and do not want my natural nail filed down like regular gel nails. ive had a regular done before and it was terrible afterwards...
@audrey1053 So, you are spending a few hours on the beach(or outdoors) and worrying about 2 min exposure to UV lamp? Sun intensity hundreds of times stronger than any lamp used in nail salons. And... UV spectrum of nail curing lamps actually less harmful than sun's.
@gelnailsonline I'm not spending hours at the beach, I have photosensibility because of meds I take. So I'm double aware of those kind of things. And UV light is always UV light. Is the primer make the nail weaker or stronger agaist UV light? There is no scientific reasearch on that.
@gelnailsonline I am sorry, if you are sensitive to UV light. But, your comments are not based on scientific facts. UV gels are cured with a wavelength of about 365 nm, which is called "Ultraviolet A - UVA", "long wave" or "Black Light". Read on Wikipedia: "Unlike UVB and UVC, which are responsible for the direct DNA damage that leads to skin cancer, black light is limited to lower-energy, longer waves and does not cause sunburn."
@blackdragondmd it takes about an hour and a half 2 hours max it depends how well trained is your nail tech an what you are doing and when doing nails you are working like 5 nails at one time
I've read that *some* women who get their nails done often are getting skin cancer on the back of their hands from the UV lights used. Put sunscreen on your hands before you go, just in case!
@jgloxo-- if you're going to disagree with someone's opinion, that's fine with me but at least do so in an intelligent way--misspelled words and incorrect grammar make you look DUMB. If you were a *master* nail tech (which I highly doubt--you're probably just some jerk teenager) I would think you'd have a better command of the language. Whatever.
This woman's cuticles are inflamed & infected, her technique is horrendous & I'd rather have my hands chopped off than go to her. There is NO WAY she's a *real* nail tech. Nope ain't buying it.
@Tommyzgrl I am a master nail technician and he does not have infected nails. From her technique she defiantely has some sort of trainging. Keep your ruded comments to yourself because you obviously do not know what you are talking about!
@Tommyzgrl I must agree with jgloxo and disagree with you. She does not have inflamed or infected cuticles. Anyone can see this. What is wrong with her technique? Everybody has a different technique, I even do it different. It doesn't mean that you have to bash the woman for doing it differently. Technique does not matter, finished product matters.
Damn this Video was like almost 10 mins long. And that's without including the "2-3 min curing" each time. FOR JUST ONE NAIL! WOW. TOO MUCH TIME CONSUMING. I'd only do it if they had one Finger to do LOL. Nice but Total Not worth the Time !
i had acrylics done a while ago with tips and everything, except she also applied gel like this, she basically gave me acrylic and gel? i'm confused :S or are there just different methods of doing it?
I get that they are just showing the basic technique for building off the nail instead of using tips, but she's applying way to much and it' looks like an acrylic with all the bulk. If done well it looks more "natural". And there are better how tos than this one.
Her technique is horrible. To create a really good smile line, you should always do the pink first, then come in with the white to make sure the line is crisp. She used no primer at all wish can ruin the girls nails. With how shitty her nails look, I don't know why anyone would ever even go to her.
@Lapreghiera You probably should watch a process in it's entirety before making a judgment call. Especially on something that takes to the very last step to come together.
@Idiotsoverdose Not talking about the customers nails, the manicurists hands are scary. I hate that heavy curve anyway, but the nails look like they are stuffed in a sausage. She or whomever did her nails overworked her nail bed and she needs a soak. She couldn't do my nails, and I couldn't watch all that - deal.
@Idiotsoverdose The manicurists nails look like they are stuffed in a sausage, which means her nail bed was over worked minimum, if its not inflamed. She couldn't do my hands, and that is just my opinion - deal. And if this is a 10 minute video on one nail, she IS taking to long, which means inexperience, which could further explain her own nails...
gel is nice and lasts longer then acrylic, feels natural and doesnt damage your nails as much as acrylics an theyre thinner and more flexible :) i love them i was skeptical till i did them...now i get gel kits and my nails are long and stong :)
wow thats crazy if some one has that mutch time to get just one nail done and it take probly 15 20 mins i would hate to see ho wlong it takes to do all 10 some people spend more time on shit like that when they can just pop some glue on nails and be done with it thats crazy
Beautiful job, really a fantastic way to make nails pretty and longer; I learned a lot with this video, thank you for doing it! Obviously it took long because they did it to teach us how to do it; who ever criticizes probably cannot do it so good as you do! Great job, congratulations!!!
this was done very messy!! The finished nail looked good, but when applying the gels it looked like you were just throwing them on and not taking and time to make them look good.
i got scammed today! the vietnamese lady at the salon said i was getting 'solar gel nails' when really she just gave me fancy acrylics and charged 10 bucks extra. WTF. bitch.
10 minutes to do that one nail. shit crazy. sooo likeeee althogether its 100minutes to finish her both hands nd oh yeah plus the time for curing which is like and extra 3 minutes added to each hand making it 130 mins that how many hours2 hours and 10 minutes...SMH

wow great job i told mi mom she should learn this i love doing nails but she alwaysgetas agriviated at nail salon because shes soo spicific arg lol i should try doing this
@ limeybeetle, it's also a long term thing. If you constantly get the gel on anywhere other than the nail, it could start to cause reactions and allergies.
@gelnailsonline, are you a professional nail tech? because that really looks like the long winded way to do them. You shouldn't use your finger to get rid of the dust when filing as that is adding natural oils to the nail and can aid to the nail lifting. You should use a brush. (I am a trained nail tech too. )
@LimeyBeetle it will bond to the skin and when you try to remove it the skin goes with it.. or so i have been told. It has never happened to me so I am not sure.
@LimeyBeetle If the gel gets on the skin, then its not flush with the nail and has a little pocket underneath it, this can cause the gel to lift from the nail and can cause your nail to pop off (painful)
I've never seen this technique before - very interesting!
I have to admit - after watching the video I'd just as soon get tips applied, then gel overtop. Seems to be equally as pretty and natural looking, without all the fuss and lengthy procedure. It certainly shouldn't take 10 minutes to do one nail. One wonders why you'd do it this way at all? Is there something I'm missing?
I'm not trying to sound rude by asking this question, I just really would like to know. Why take the time to do the tip the way you did in this video, compared to just putting a tip on by glue? Is there a benefit to doing it this way?
@ceciliabatta The benefit of building the nail than using tips is the result. Looks more natural and it doesnt feel that strange to ur nails, its like doing the natural extension of ur nails and not trying to put something extra on.Both ways are ok, but if u want my opinion as a pro, i dont like tips coz after 10 days if u see under ur nails looks a bit ugly(that plastic thing) but with the building way each much beter, especially when u do transparent nail designs
the result looks ok...but in the begining i wonder what is she doing with that huge brush?????well u had to file it too much to look that good and it was only one nail, i wonder how much time u need for both hands?
@konstansal I'm not a professional but, me and my sister in law got tired of paying to have our nails done and having a crap job done at that. So we bought everything to do this ourselves, and i mean everything! It takes awhile to do both hands, if we put extra stuff on them (like fimo decals or something) it takes even longer. Just white tips and filing 2 hands, I's say about 1.5 - 2 hours! Definitely something we do when we plan a day for it.
@FrankiezShoe well, its nice that u tried it, u use only gel?If u do let me give u an advice as a pro, try a smaller brush for gels and dont apply it as a nail polish(like ur painting the nail), try to move the gel gently from sides to sides with the tip of ur brush and dont forget to avoid skin contact, thats makes it a lot easier and u avoid air bubles too.keep trying, with exercise u will do just fine.
i doing nails 8 years,and that nails are very thick. if you apply the acrylic well,your nails last longer than gel.and acrylic is more stronger

@LimeyBeetle it will bond to the skin and when you try to remove it the skin goes with it.. or so i have been told. It has never happened to me so I am not sure.

@LimeyBeetle If the gel gets on the skin, then its not flush with the nail and has a little pocket underneath it, this can cause the gel to lift from the nail and can cause your nail to pop off (painful)

loved it .
i got my nails done yesterday i got acrylic
but..
with gel it takes like 10 mins just to do one finger
and
with acrylic it takes 10 mins to do a whole hand
so id rather stay with acrylic, xxx

I've never seen this technique before - very interesting!
I have to admit - after watching the video I'd just as soon get tips applied, then gel overtop. Seems to be equally as pretty and natural looking, without all the fuss and lengthy procedure. It certainly shouldn't take 10 minutes to do one nail. One wonders why you'd do it this way at all? Is there something I'm missing?
Also, please invest in a camera tripod.
Thanks for the upload! I learned something :)

I'm not trying to sound rude by asking this question, I just really would like to know. Why take the time to do the tip the way you did in this video, compared to just putting a tip on by glue? Is there a benefit to doing it this way?

@ceciliabatta The benefit of building the nail than using tips is the result. Looks more natural and it doesnt feel that strange to ur nails, its like doing the natural extension of ur nails and not trying to put something extra on.Both ways are ok, but if u want my opinion as a pro, i dont like tips coz after 10 days if u see under ur nails looks a bit ugly(that plastic thing) but with the building way each much beter, especially when u do transparent nail designs

the result looks ok...but in the begining i wonder what is she doing with that huge brush?????well u had to file it too much to look that good and it was only one nail, i wonder how much time u need for both hands?
konstansal 1 year ago
@konstansal I'm not a professional but, me and my sister in law got tired of paying to have our nails done and having a crap job done at that. So we bought everything to do this ourselves, and i mean everything! It takes awhile to do both hands, if we put extra stuff on them (like fimo decals or something) it takes even longer. Just white tips and filing 2 hands, I's say about 1.5 - 2 hours! Definitely something we do when we plan a day for it.

@FrankiezShoe well, its nice that u tried it, u use only gel?If u do let me give u an advice as a pro, try a smaller brush for gels and dont apply it as a nail polish(like ur painting the nail), try to move the gel gently from sides to sides with the tip of ur brush and dont forget to avoid skin contact, thats makes it a lot easier and u avoid air bubles too.keep trying, with exercise u will do just fine.

Hi im just wondering how long does it take for both hands to be done?
CutiePie09871 1 year ago
It did take long but maybe it was for educational purpose. I nail did look nice after it was done.

Are gel nails better for your nails than acrylics?
bbliciousred 1 year ago
while this is beautiful, it take entirely too long for someone I would think. Tremendous amount of skill though, the nail is flawless.

Hiya!
Loved the video!
I just started doind gel nails and I use nail tips then file them into the nail instead of useing forms.
Can you tell me the difference? Like is using just gel and no fake nail tip stronger or weaker?
Whenever I got my nails done they always used nail tips. Never forms.

How do you remove the uv gel on your nails? (:
gurksam 2 years ago
Gel nails the cure under UV light can only be filed or buffed off.
DanetteElaine 2 years ago
@DanetteElaine But..can you have regular nail polish on uv nails? and how do you then remove that? with acceton?
gurksam 2 years ago
Yes you can use regular polish over top of uv-cured gel nails and it would come off easily with any acetone-based nail polish remover.
DanetteElaine 2 years ago
my friend that is a nail tech told me that its not supposed to use nail polish on UV gel nails instead you need to use coloured UV gel
