Acrylic or Gel Prep On Natural Nail

[@montsecb3286]

This Lady is like the Goddess of nails. She has saved infinite times and her videos are extremely helpful.

[@divaenji]

I do my nails at home & am not pro trained. I have recently been having a problem with lifting. I came across this video, purchased the tools used, upgraded my nail brush & voila my set has greatly improved. I thank you for these videos they helped me. Suggestion: Maybe you can do a video on the importance of the nail brush & compare some (i.e. Show brushes that come with sets versus kolinski/red sable brushes & there thicknesses.

[@NailCareerEducation]

Enjoli Watkins Oh I am so glad it's helped - The review on brushes - excellent idea - I will add that idea to my list - thank you

[@Kendracathey]

What video?

[@honeyshouse3739]

All of your videos are so helpful. Soooo many nail salons in my area do NOT do this. So I've started doing it myself before I go there.

[@huyaba100]

I know this is 3 years old but you can report those places

[@meganavelino6005]

I don't even do nails but I love you videos and I love your voice it's so calm

[@NailCareerEducation]

MEGAN AVELINO Thank you Meagan - welcome to my channel :)

[@userr.404]

The way she says snug is so calming, I could happily watch her videos just to hear her voice

[@SMfornow]

Started doing my nails to save money these days, socglad i found this channel ❤❤

[@mishkaallen9682]

Still watching old videos 5 years later, 💖 your videos xxxxx

[@rainafleming7235]

Holy crap! I have to say that your entire channel has been an eye opener and I’ve been subscribe for 2 years now I think. I live in Ottawa, Ontario and I can tell you that my nails are NEVER prepped this way. I’m usually really scared because techs ALWAYS use a drill with a rough bit to prep my nails. They’re basically thinning my natural nails to oblivion so I’m always scared I’ll get burned. And they do the same thing when taking acrylics off and then tell me I can’t get new acrylics until my nails heal and grow out because it’s too damaged from the filing with the drill...why? Because they always want to start with drilling. They use the drill FOR EVERYTHING. I don’t know if I can take it anymore lol

[@AmziAsher]

I love Susie. She is to be celebrated here on KZbin as her content is important, educational and value-packed!!!!!!!! Love you lots!!! 💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻

[@loriwargo9271]

all of this info is so great. i have never had my nails done. i have everything to do the acrylics but haven't tried it yet. i am more into the actual art on the nails right now. i have painted nails on a few friends and family and it lasts really well on them. mine on the other hand starts chipping off in a few days time. so i am hoping that buffing my nails 1st will do the trick. thanks to all who are sharing info. it helps more than you could know.

[@NailCareerEducation]

+lori wargo Thank you - let me know if the buffing helps :))

[@lv1469]

Suzie, I must say you look like a model in these videos. So beautiful! Love your work.

[@maggieurie]

For someone starting out with acrylic (I'm an esthetician and was only taught with gel because of where I live we don't instruct acrylic anymore) what would you suggest are the best brushes/methods to getting a perfect acrylic when you already know nail techniques and gel application, thank you so much if you get back to me!

[@NailCareerEducation]

Hi, great question! But the answer is very indepth. Gel is very very different in application. Even thought chemically these products are both made from Acrylic- they perform very differently. Acrylic is harder to work with because it dries from the second you gather the product in your brush. I can't go into the process here - learning the RIGHT technique and mastering it takes the right educator and lots and lots of experience. To get started, you need and Oval #8 sable or type brush. For technique if you can check back here in about 5 days my new video on Liquid to Powder Ration is coming!! It's a must watch for the first step to Acrylic! Thank you for watching 😀

[@rouchamadahan2058]

Yr literally the NICEST person out there! I love yr videoes. They are so helpfull. Thank u Xx

[@asurimzapata6745]

super straight to the point everything was thoroughly explained, really helpful !!

[@SelenaOlalde]

Really appreciate this video I'm finally doing my own nails for the first time and this really helps a lot thank you !

[@NailCareerEducation]

+selena olalde awesome 😀

[@Mimi2560A]

hello! I found this video very informative, but I do have one question: Is the buffing of the nail even _neccesary?_ I only ask because I have _always_ heard that acrylics, gel, dip systems don't ruin nails, bad nail techs do with the poor prep or over aggressive prep. You mentioned that with the better primers out there, you could _almost_ skip the buffing. I ask because I heard that buffing thins out the nail over time, especially if you get new sets and refills.

[@donaldmacaulay9478]

I just live everything you do.. Thank you for sharing ..wishing you and family all the best for coming year.. 💅🏼💜

[@NailCareerEducation]

Aw- thank you Tina 😀

[@sydneyfrankos6417]

+Nail Career Education yes I love watching your videos for some reason they make me feel relaxed

[@ambiancevidz4u]

Hello Suzie. I'm not a technician or anything. I just love playing with my nails for about 15 years and I love your videos. Your instructions are very clear and you really are a good teacher. I just have one question though. What happens if I don't use primer at all?

[@NailCareerEducation]

without primer the nails can lift - it helps with adhesion

[@cathysmith8808]

Thank you so much!! I only use store brand nail polishes and in a couple of hours it comes off. I'll try this and see if my nail polish stays on longer

[@bevsartsandcrafts715]

I'm currently learning all the basics ( only for myself, I'm not a pro) and really enjoying it :)

[@franchescaweir3769]

i just love your videos!! you are so helpful and thanks to you i got my own gel nail station for christmas!! keep doing what your doing!! ❤❤❤

[@gloriajean5360]

I love watching your videos. Your so inspiring to me. You make me wanna learn more n more. Im a newbie to nails but you make me know I can be a pro like you. Also your so pretty too I love your hands

[@katiebug5701]

Is using a 100 grit too harsh for hard gel nails? The product I use suggests using 100 grit to prep. Thank you for the wonderful videos!

[@oceanlove670]

i do my nails at home and have been having lifting. when i did my set i didn't gently file the nail or use nail prep i only used a nail dehydrator. i ordered my nail prep and will lightly file my natural nails on my next set. 😊

[@00joy5]

thanks your videos are extremly helpful when i get a little older i will do them on myself but i wanna start learning now

[@Ivy-si5ip]

You're honestly amazing!

[@missrg1854]

thank you so much, this was so simply explained and straight to the point... thank you

[@aarabisivamohan163]

Can you do a video on how to remove an acrylic nail this would mean so much!!

[@Thesweetsisters3600]

Really interesting because I did a full set and my some of my nails popped off I prepare the nail good and I even went to get the OPI bond aid and I still don't know! Any tips thanks love your videos ☺️

[@paigeshanley9156]

Super Girls hey i’m definitely not a nail tech but try cleaning the sides up a little bit if there is access gel around the sides the nails are so much easier to pop off

[@jijic1031]

Thank you for making this video. I've been doing my own acrylic nails for a little while and for some reason they ALWAYS come off in like a few days. Watching this i finally realized nail primer is super important. LOL I love your channel. Also, more Grant and camera man please. The sass is up by 23 levels with them combined lol.

[@NailCareerEducation]

LOL - Thanks :)

[@jijic1031]

Nail Career Education no, thank you! Any advice for a young nail enthusiast, like myself, looking to make a career on nails and beauty?

[@chichafox6296]

Suzie...once our nail has been buffed for gel application one time, after we take off the gel (however many weeks later) do we need to re-buff for another application?? Thanks!!

[@lindarea4013]

Hi, I love your videos. Could you help me with a question? Is it possible to apply regular nails polish down the acrylic?

[@iroma8886]

Hii, i have a question.. Can i get a Manicure and After get my nails done, with acrylic? I dont know if the shape matters, but I'm going to get the Almond shape. Love your vids btw!

[@SaraGarcia-ii5ht]

Regarding sanitary gel application, is it ok or not to "double dip" into the gel--whether it's builder, cover, top coats, polish, what have you--from person to person? Does the same apply to gels as the acrylic dip method where you coat the nail using a separate container? Does a small amount have to be separated into a different container for each client? Why or why not? Thank you kindly for your time.

[@binkieify]

So you would do this before applying tips also? And is there a time period for applying the acrylic or gel from the one you prep? I've heard people say you need to do one nail at a time and apply the acrylic while the nail is still wet from the primer?

[@trangsterly]

I absolutely love you videos. So helpful! Thank you much =)

[@mrskmcooper]

That manicure case is really nice!!

[@BieberMyHusband]

Do you recommend getting a dehydrator and primer? Do you think it's an important step?

[@veronicaolsson9742]

Thank You for your hard work it's really inspiring 😊 I would want to see/know if you can do a gel/acrylic nail on a really short bitten nail?

[@genavievec]

How can I find myself a nail lady like you ??????!! I feel like finding someone like you at a nail salon is like 1 in a million 😩😭

[@jacquelinepruvost9541]

Love your tutorials! Is it better to use a nail form versus a nail tip on acrylics?

[@NailCareerEducation]

Jacqueline Pruvost I MUCH prefer the Nail Form cause I can shape it to whatever I want - there's no extra work with filing the tip, cutting it to size etc - forms are way better - but it's a skill - but worht it when you nail it ;)

[@petrescuework-difficultcas6581]

The nail place I went to did not even push cuticles. She used desinfection and then primer. Then she directly applied the gel. I lost the first nail after a week, two more a few days later. They were lifting and having bubbles all under them. That was the last time I went to a nail place

[@bluebrrybrain]

I know how you feel, it was the same for me... I payed a ton of money (65€ for nails T.T) and it was ruined less than two weeks after.

[@stefanilopez1994]

Hi suzie! I’m not a nail tech, I’m only a fan at doing my own nails at home it’s cheaper, and sometimes the results are prettier (not always), but I’m new to using uv/led gel polish’s and I was wonder if you can make a video to show the proper way to do it?

[@mayadines2045]

Hi! Do I need to use a PH bond before acrylic or gel? Is it enough only putting the base coat? Or I have to first put the PH bond, then the base coat, an then de gel o acrylic?

[@hayleyargyle7007]

I love watching your videos. I've learnt some much from you, thank you.

[@elizabethvalencia2612]

Hi Suzy, I do my own just as a hobby and I’ve noticed that salons sometimes use an anti fungal solution during the prep, is that necessary?

[@Learning29]

Can you please do the video on how to apply acrylic nails, blending tips, apply powder and etc. From start to end for beginner? Many thanks P.s. what colour on your nails? I love light pink.

[@Learning29]

I do not own nail drill but I used nail file.

[@NailCareerEducation]

I just filmed this video at your request- I'll be ready in a few days - the colour im wearing in this video is I Theadore You by OPI😃

[@gitanasea]

Hi! Suzie what is better sculptural nail or gel nail? Thanks!🌹

[@Brenda-rm2wp]

Thank you. That was just what I was looking to find out xx

[@aprilthomas6]

Hey Suzie, I had a question. I stopped biting my nails after years of nail biting. I've used nail Polish and most recently invested in the gel polish to increase the strength of my natural nail. I've had so many issues with my nails peeling at the edge of the nail and even in the middle of my nail as well as breaking off. Do you have any recommendations on how to stop my nails from peeling and breaking?

[@NailCareerEducation]

+April Thomas Hi April - it's tough for nail bitters - I feel for you - gel polish is a good choice - if you need stronger I'd recommend Acrylic- just make sure when your getting gel done they are removing correctly and not weakening your nail:)

[@mj1817123]

I have a question! I'm getting my nails done soon, and I was wondering if I should get Gel or Acrylic. This is my first time getting my nails done, and I'm not sure what I want! I would appreciate an opinion on the matter, but I'm not sure how I feel. I want a professional opinion on my dilemma. I am 14, and have short bitten nails. Thank you for your time

[@NailCareerEducation]

I prefer Acrylic over Gel- it's a stronger product overall- BUT.... In my opinion Gel is easier to apply and learn, Acrylic takes longer to learn and to perfect - therefore it can be hard to find a good acrylic artist- so ask around and don't focus on the product as much as look for a great nail tech in your area - also personality is important.

[@sayanisboutique8410]

thank u seem short nf simple cant wait to try it!

[@barbie2306]

Can I ask a question about the calligraphy pens you use for your nail art. What kind of pens do you use? Are these specific to nails of traditional calligraphy pens? Thank you. I really love nail art but your videos are the first time I've seen the pens used.

[@ashcashcarter]

I saw some on ebay. They have the tips of a calligraphy pen but they're made for nail art.

[@erickafrazier943]

I love all your videos! Question....why do nail salons use a drill to prepaire your nails, its really harsh and damaging....

[@JB-bu4dn]

Can you do a video going step by step how to do a full gel set with design and products used??

[@joeanneallen151]

Can I ask what drill you use... And also where you purchase it? And same with the nail tips you use? Thanks

[@ashleyc9693]

Do these steps apply to fillings as well? I'm still in high school and it's just to costly to have my nails done professionally but I don't want to take off my acrylics because I'm a stress biter, it's really bad as I won't know I'm doing it till their throbbing in pain and inflamed, sometimes bleeding. 😭 I've found I won't bite them unless they are a certain length and aren't too grown out, once the corners start lifting I'll bite them till they crack (I know! I've done bad! 😫). If it doesn't take too much of your time what are some good tips for those who aren't pros? Oh and also, thank you for teaching me so much, your videos are lovely, fun to watch and easy to learn from, you are such an inspiration to so many, and I couldn't see myself learning from any other videos except yours. ☺️

[@ashcashcarter]

yes, when you do a fill, you want to push the cuticles back and make sure there isn't any dead skin, use dehydrator & primer before application.

[@giulianamanle3629]

Susie I have another question what do you do when your acrylic has been on for more than a month and the natural nails have grown and start separating from the acrylic? Can you show a video please?

[@XMorpheus3000]

What is the difference between the prep step and the primer? Are there any inexpensive ones you would recommend?

[@tanisgeorgetti7317]

Can you recommend a drill and bit that I can use at home to remove dry dead cuticles!!! I have Sjogren’s disease so I don’t have moisture to my skin so my cuticles get really dry and unsightly! I’m not a nail tech so I need a user friendly one that actually works! Lol thanks so much hope you or someone can help me! Much love and a Happy New Years!!!

[@tanisgeorgetti7317]

Susie please help is it safe to put a builder gel in my nails if I have damaged it! I was STUPIDLY SCRAPING MY CUTICLE AWAY WITH A CUTICLE NIPPER AND I MAD A HOLE IN THE NAIL PLATE

[@sexychickwithlove]

What acrylic nail system do you prefer for beginners I've been using this crap from Hong Kong and it's not working for me I really want to find a cheap alternative that works really well what would you prefer?

[@genesisingold9604]

are your nails acrylic or gel? I love them

[@kathgordon8858]

Do you have to use the dehydrator? Just wondering as the nail tech I used to go to never did this step and I never had issues with any lifting. My nails used to stay on for ages -until I had them removed due to the growth making them look too silly lol! Stayed on even with my busy manual lifestyle I've bought my own kit now to teach myself as I absolutely love nail art..... but in my usual silly fashion, I forgot to buy the dehydrator :-( :-( now I'm worried! Is it an absolute must to buy? As some people say this is only for people with oily nails/skin. By the way, love the videos, you are a great teacher ^_^ you seem like such a kind person!

[@NailCareerEducation]

+Kath Gordon hi kath - don't worry Dehydrator is handy to have to eliminate oils and dust but if you missed it - it's no biggy - especially your just doing your own - if it was paying clients I would recommend it :)

[@kathgordon8858]

[@vampiir3chiick]

I think it'd be awesome if you could do a tutorial on how to do acrylic nails on someone who has really short bitten nails.

[@monica8399]

The places I go to NEVER push back the cuticle before applying the acrylic. Is that so you have to come back sooner for a fill-in? Or are they just bad at doing nails?

[@IamMissPronounced]

Monica Dillard well it could be possible that they just want you to come in sooner, but if customers find their nails aren't lasting as long, I don't think most of them would go back to that salon, right?

[@renlish]

The first and only time I had acrylics done on my nails (about four years ago), the primer part of the application stung something awful and a lot of it was used. I was in actual pain even as I left the salon but I thought this was just part of the process. Now I know the nail tech probably used an acid-based primer. She had also filed way too deep into the nail bed and I had horrible half-moons gouged out of my nails I could see as they started to grow out. Unfortunately my nails have never gone back to their original healthy condition - I had the nails professionally removed a few days after getting them done at a different place and the tech was horrified at what had been done. I have to say thank you for your informative videos. I'm not a tech at all,but I find the process fascinating and you have a great, engaging personality.

[@NailCareerEducation]

Oh my- im sorry you had to experience that- not fun. Your natural nails will grow our completely in about 3-6 months - so the damage will eventually grow out. This sadly is what can happen when a tech doesn't have the correct knowledge or intuitive feelings about people. When your holding the hand of a client (if you paying attention - as a tech) you can feel when a client is experiencing discomfort or pain- the client will tense either slightly (or very noticeable) or pull away. Hello!!! It's hurting! Sensing the clients feeling is as much apart of this job as is application of the nails! But.... Sadly, sometimes it's overlooked!! Thank you for your comments. Hope your nails feel better soon😊

[@amyyoung5390]

I'm from the uk, and I love your videos- where did you get your pink nail tool case from? I've been looking around and can't find one :( x

Do you RELLY need to use primer on your nails, is it bad for the nails if you don’t use primer.

[@biancaperez5112]

Question: I don't ever have any issues with my gel polish lifting or chipping. It lasts up to 6 weeks no problems. I prep my nails for acrylic almost the exact same way. I just change the grit to a medium grit and I file it flush to the cuticle area. So what could be causing me to still have issues with lifting??

[@brunaabreu1394]

be careful not to get it on your skin

[@ericaolson6846]

Love your videos! They’re so helpful. Would you apply a base coat after these steps when doing a gel polish? Thanks so much if you can get back to me :)

[@ashcashcarter]

+Bruna Abreu acrylic doesn't need light.

[@deborahketterer2354]

Instead of Primer can I use a base coat or top coat??

[@Noaaa_17]

Hi i love your videos you explain really well!! I have a question i do nails on some friends of mine and myself and i do exactly this prep and i follow every step of how to apply acrylic or gel on nails, but still the nails keep lifting and falling off after 1 or 2 weeks:( i don't know what i do wrong. I do use professional products nothing like cheap stuff etc. can you pleaaase give me tips on how to make the acrylic and gel last long? It would help me so much

[@NailCareerEducation]

***** OOOH that must be soo frustrating - are they breaking off or falling right off - that's a big dif. When they come off does it leave ANY product on the natural nail? Let's get to the bottom of it.....

[@Noaaa_17]

They fall off and leave nothing left on the nail... Its very frustrating!!

[@teklakekla]

Hey there I have a question about applying acrylics to bitten nails. Ive had this problem ever since my teeth grew out. I have stopped biting my bails but once it reaches a certain length they just break off because my nails are very weak. I thought of applying acrylics so that my natural nail can grow out while i have them on. Is it a good idea or will my nails get even weaker? I don't want to wear acrylics after they grow our so is it possible? All i want is that my nails grow out then remove it and have natural long nails. I would be oh so thankful to have an answer from you because i've asked locals and i don't really trust them :)

[@NailCareerEducation]

Tekla Gamtsemlidze Hi - you really have asked a great question - the reason your nails are not gaining any lenght, is probably two reasons - you bite when they grow a free edge and/or they are weak. When Acrylic is sitting on Natural Nails they become alittle soft - it's the air that makes them harder - if you take a bandaid off your skin (after it has been on there for awhile) you'll notice the skin can be wrinkly or softer - the natural nail is like that after having acrylic on. So if you do put acrylics on to grow your nails out then remove, the natural nail will be so soft the probably won't remain long for too long - HOWEVER, having acrylic on, it may break the habit of biting - That could be awesome! OR keep the Acrylic - they are gorgeous!!

[@teklakekla]

Oh my god thank you so much i didn't really think you'd answer :) thanks again

[@nappynew]

On the buffer 100/180 -- how long do they last?

[@Mcruzlaguna]

Great videos. Keep up the great job.... One thing that caught my eye was your tool accessory kit. Where can I get one?

[@NailCareerEducation]

Yes! Isn't it sweet! It's from INN it has awesome tools in it- you can find it on the INM site- I think it's about $100

[@Mcruzlaguna]

Thank you.

[@qwilliams9989]

Soooo 👀 Are primer and bond the same things??? I am S O confused

[@edeniashappiness0230]

No, not entirely; although they do some of the same things they are different Primer goes on before the bond; it basically primes the nailbed and dehydrates it so the nail bed is a bit more easy to work with A bond is used to help the product (whether it be gel or acrylic) to adhere to the nailbed; if you used just primer my guess would be it would be too dehydrated to work with. Correct me if im wrong though.

[@sneakystef]

I have followed this with my own gel nails and my gel lasts a super long time with no lifting or chipping but my problem is it's TOO stuck on my nail! It is impossible to take my gels off. Can you provide tips on the best way to remove gel nails especially when crafting an extension using gels and not tips? Acetone just won't lift it unless I file until I almost see my nail and even then it takes an hour to soak it off :(

[@Nadeshda]

sneakymod most builder gels are meant to be filed off. I think there are some that can be soaked, but they usually refer it on the pot.

[@MariaLopez-ex4lk]

I don’t know how I got here! But this video relaxed me so much. You should do ASMR videos.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@zoeybee9298]

+Mária Gorejová when you find out please do share ive been trying to find out too!

[@kristinbullard4306]

Hi i hav question I am noticing alot of ppl are scared to wear acrylic because It weakings the nail but they still want length do you do tips with out acrylic and will it look the same as if you are wearing acrylic nails.

[@NailCareerEducation]

Kristin Bullard I don't think so because are an already pre formed plactic Tip - I like to form the Acrylic with a form because it is specifically designed to the clients finger - a much more natural look. :) Oh Acrylic actually doesn't weaken them - it's like when you put a bandaid on your skin, you know how it becomes alittle softer - same premise with acrylic OR GEL on the Nails - once they are removed the nail will harden right back up.

[@kristinbullard4306]

Ok thanks
