Would love to see this done for timing with removal & prep too! That's where I struggle the most bc I take too much time on clients

I will have to say, Habib's cuticles are nice and neat so his prep will be considerably faster than someone with excessive or stubborn cuticle so i think 5-10 min is great timing!

I still struggle getting it done that easy & that fast.. especially on someone who hasn’t done them in a while or when doing a fill.. Some hands are definitely a lot easier to do than others.. I’ve learned I have more of a c curved nail plate w/“deep side pockets” so if I don’t Reallyy get in there to push it back/up & scrape it off good, I will definitely end up with some kind of lifting around the top corners on a nail or 2.. so I try to keep up with it so I don’t have to spend 15mins every time, 😢just on prep. Especially dealing with lifting acrylic.. trying to be careful not to cut the skin or damage the nail but making sure you get it off.. hate that part.. She makes it look so easy like a 1,2,1,2 next... but then again habib has nice nails for a guy so there’s that... 😩😂 maybe it’s her cuticle pusher.. that’s a nice 1 lol 😆💁♀️

I saw another channel say to brush (like with Swipe) towards the client but doesn’t that push all of the debris into their pocket? I think brushing towards yourself makes more sense right?

I have a question. In the video you can see there are small bits of the nail plate that still have shine, but it’s not near the sidewall or cuticle area. Does this affect adhesion? I’m usually super thorough with the nail plate and wonder if that’s even necessary for any ridges in the nail plate or if those sunken ridges in the nail can be left alone if the sanding band doesn’t go into the ridge and rough it up.
@youngnailsinc26 күн бұрын
You do want to be as thorough as possible when removing shine, however, if there are lower areas or ridges in the nails, make sure you don't over-file to smooth those out as this can cause damage or over-thinning of the nail.

It’s our product swipe. Swipe is an alcohol and acetone based product formulated to cleanse the nail perfectly for product. Here is a video about Swipe & how to use it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oonbo2OLYtB7oa8

Alcohol isn't strong enough to remove all the oils from the nails. We really recommend swipe, but if you can't get it, you could try 99% alcohol.

I have purchased so much nail supplies and was upset to know that I didn’t have swipe as part of my collection, but I have lots of 90% isopropyl (because I was focusing on doing poly gel nails at one point when I started purchasing.

Hi I have a quick question when if it’s only one person using the band when you’re taking off the shine, how many times can you use the same band on the same one person?
@youngnailsinc9 ай бұрын
You would need to check with your state board on reusing products.
@thenailauthority9 ай бұрын
@dolldoll100 Price it into your service and throw that thing away! Sanding bands aren't very expensive. Plus, you never know if there are bacteria hanging out on the skin. You leave the band, next time cut them with it and they end up with a nasty infection. You don't want to put your license at risk for a few pennies. THROW THEM AWAY!!

Why double protein if you mentioned to be careful not to over flood with it? Does the double make a big difference?
@youngnailsinc9 ай бұрын
We always recommend using two coats for heavy lifters, but you don't want to find out after the fact that someone is a heavy lifter so we use two coats on everyone. You just don't want the protein bond to run into the cuticles and sidewalls.

Do you guys not cut the cuticle with nippers?
@youngnailsinc7 ай бұрын
When we prep, we do not recommend cutting the cuticles as this does open the skin to over exposure to products that accidentally touch the skin. If trimming hangnails is necessary, we recommend doing this after the nails are completed.

Is that protein bond called base coat?
@youngnailsinc8 ай бұрын
No, Protein bond is a non acid primer.. it doesn’t chemically etch the nail like a traditional primer does. Protein stays sticky.. sticks to the natural nail and then sticks the product. If you are working on the natural nails for a gel manicure or hard gel, you still need to use a base coat unless the product you are using says it's not needed. For example, you do not need a base coat with our one step gel polish or before applying fiber gel.

Why does it hurt when I prep with the electric file?
@youngnailsinc8 ай бұрын
It could be because your nails are too thin and/or you are using too much pressure when using the e-file. You want a very light feather like motion at 3,000-5,000 rpms for prep. I like a good nail strengthener.. apply a coat every day to every other day for about 7 days. Remove and repeat for rebuilding and strengthening natural nails.
