I love how even though this seems like a huge no no, like it might horrify nail techs, you didn't shame the client at all even when talking hypothetically. You're very kind Suzie. I really value kindness. Not niceness, nice can be a front, it can be weak, and it's a descriptor. But kind is a strong action, a choice. And you are kind.

[@kawannahardy2924]

[@marihawley]

I think the most important thing Suzie demonstrates in this video is how to be kind to your clients even though they do something that frustrates you. I stopped seeing a nail technician because she just was so nasty to me about how my nails would look when I came in, like she resented me living my life because she had to deal with my nails.

[@Call-me-Al]

You didn't treat her 'masterpieces' the way she felt you should, in other words. She should do miniature paintings for art galleries instead of being a nail tech. Nail art is by definition temporary art, even though it absolutely can be breathtaking art.

[@MyBFFtheBT]

Hi Mari, I'm so sorry! That's wrong on so many levels. My guy, who was great at his job, complained incessantly about how particular his clients are. That irritated me, because I'm one of those "particular" people. But he was so good, I bit my tongue and stuck with him. Then he sold the salon and his sister is running it now. She is so pushy. One nail breaks or lifts and she pushes me to buy a new set. One nail, all she had to do was file the lift away, and she wouldn't. She said you need a new set, and I said, no, I don't -- I need you fix my nail. She said Ok, but if you get a fungus, it's not my fault. I flipped out when she looked me in the eye and said that. *Whose* fault is it?! I, sort of, let her have it and told her off. I have a little pre-prepared speech for these moments, because I was a nail tech in the 90s and I know how to prep and sanitize to avoid that. So I politely called her out on it. But I was livid, and I did it in front of a full salon of people who heard it all. She just put her head down and fixed the nail like she is supposed to do and never said another word to me, but I won't be going back. I'll do my own nails.

When you were talking about why you wear a mask and the client doesn't I think a point to add to that would be that the client is in the salon for a short period of time and really exposed to only a very minuscule amount of dust whereas the technician is there all day and exposed for a lot longer so being able to mitigate the dust inhalation for the tech is very important.

as a side comment on your mask and the filing dust, i always thought of it to be similar to doctors and x-ray machines. for a single patient/client a small amount of exposure during a consultation isn’t very harmful, but the doctor/nail tech is exposed to it constantly throughout the day, every day, for the entirety of their career. so doctors tell you the x-ray is safe for you while they walk to another room, and the nail tech wears a mask to protect from breathing in endless amounts of acrylic dust. the doctor doesn’t die from radiation poisoning and the nail tech saves their lungs from permanent damage 😄 thanks for the informative video suzie, as usual!!

[@alexialmao1104]

Suzie is like superwoman for nails, always to the rescue!

[@Fluffymonkeyem]

I love how Suzie treats the client. She acts so kind. I've had experiences where nail technicians or other other similar type professionals have chastised me or made me feel bad. One time my nail ripped right down past the nail bed and I used the teabag and superglue trick as a quick fix to hold it together and limit the pain. The nail tech was so mean. But Suzie is nice no matter what, and I love that.

If a nail tech has any kind of mean, negative or whatever comment on your nails just leave immediately, seriously. Just stand up and say no thanks. If everyone would do this they would literally stop being such a*holes or they would have no buissnes

So whenever I get my nails done like a fill in the lady never gets rid of all the lifted material but I was like Susie doesn’t do that she takes it all off and she says it’s important so I asked my nail tech to do that and she said no so I’m switching nail technicians soon

[@styleme3375]

Get a new nail tech ASAP. Nail fungus can take YEARS to get rid of. If your tech is so lazy as to not remove old lifted acrylic who knows what other short cuts she may be taking.

[@ashleynicole3499]

Thats why i love watching these videos. Not only am i able to see what should be done and how it should be done but also how to try to do my nails myself. Nail techs must be licensed and if shes telling you no it doesnt need to be dome then id report her. Its unsanitary and if shes licensed shed know better. I hope you find success with finding a new tech. Dont feel obligated to stay and let the person do your nails. Get up and walk out. You are paying her to do your nails, not give you fungus. (Or ickys like Suzie said lol)❤

[@southerngirlpt]

Suzie!! Just had the worst experience. I had a set done, stiletto. After a couple days (5) I wasn't liking some things so I went back in to change the shape and length. The tech clipped the nails down then took her fingernail and tried to seperate a corner of my nail from the product left on the nail. She then took a new nail tip and ran it between my nail and the acrylic to remove the rest of the acrylic. It hurt so so bad. She took off layers of my nail plate in places. When I told her she was hurting me and asked why she wasn't using the efile she got angry and told me that the file would damage my nail. She was so rude because I was in pain questioning her method as I've never seen anyone do this and it was hurting. Such an awful experience.. Never going back there.

[@juicyparsons]

Jeeeeeez. thanks for posting this tho because good nail techs can use this to our advantage. literally you can get so many clients just talking to people about their negative complaints with fills and removals from those type of shops

[@leah5070]

don’t know if i’m the only one, but the sound of a e-file absolutely goes through me! the noise makes me cringe like nails on a chalkboard. i hate the feeling of it too 😂

[@ameliamartin7000]

leah most nail techs burn me bc my nails are thin and when I hear the sound it makes my nails hurt😭

[@esmeraldavanderlaan3076]

I'm so scared to go back because last time I went to let my nails done I was right out of the dentist office and if there is something I am scared to death for it is the dentist. The file makes the same noise as the equipment at the dentist so I was already on edge and ofcourse she hurt me filing my nails.. so now I'm kinda traumatized after my last appointment.. And can't stand the sound anymore.

[@RandomGlow444]

I associate the sound with a relaxing manicure so I actually enjoy it.

[@devineBsexy]

I have a question... if its lifted that much and they're clearly old why not just remove them or soak them off...seems like a lot of work...just asking

[@NailCareerEducation]

Because removing and new sets do take longer and you charge more/ you certainly can do it / its just over shooting

[@thixiemattel]

I think I would have removed the one that was broken past the free edge of the natural nail but Suzie is right that it would cost more.

[@mskay288]

Yes just soak off get new set

[@juicyparsons]

once you get good with drilling and fills soaking off all the way and resculpting just takes longer, especially if your client only glued down 1 or 2 nails this filing would be real quick, plus you're using less product

[@JessInTheCityy]

@@NailCareerEducation I know soaking off a whole set is time consuming and costs more, but would it be easier just to replace the couple nails that were glued? If I have a nail that popped off or lifted, I usually remove that single nail before going to my appointment. Should I just let my tech file it down instead?

I love how real you are Suzie, it's good to know that you understand and accept that sometimes you just gotta use some glue. This is a really great video, especially the way you show how to tell what is lifted so you can make sure to remove it all. I'm a DIYer and I'm still too nervous to use a carbide bit on my nails but I use an arbor band. It takes a little longer but if I slip (as I still do) I'm not going to chew through my finger lol. I admire your control of the e-file.

[@TallulahFoxxx]

Indiegirl007 😱😱😱 ahhhh Jesus wept lol. From a structural point of view, that gives me nightmares but even worse is the stuff lurking under there 😩 Every shower and hand wash introduces water under the lifting, and then it gets trapped between the layers. Then when you’re nice and warm, tucked up in bed, that heat from your hands lets all the bacteria (that we all have naturally on our hands) thrive 😂😩 I’ve filed off extensions and found full colonies, families and communities of germs (not my work) 😂 Girl, run - don’t walk - to a new nail tech! 😂💖

It was between the first and second "balls" of her right foot! I've had a few embedded hairs in my feet over the years.

So much knowledge for newbies in this video! I’m no nail tech but making sure to remove lifting is definitely the most important thing to know regardless of your “skill level”. This is why I personally soak off every set instead of doing a fill. I wanna be 100% sure that I remove ALL the lifting. Plus for me it takes forever to file and re-prep the nails. In that time I could have easily soaked off the entire set and started with fresh naked nails. ♥️

It's more likely a bacterial infection than a fungus. Is it a greenish brown color spot that's getting darker? Keep it exposed to air and light and let it grow out. Do not use a nail file or implement on that area and then move to another nail or you will be spreading the bacteria.

Its hard finding someone who does nails the way you like. Why did they popped off like that ? The cost of getting nails done is not cheap. Its 45.00 for a fill where i live. Thats with gel polish which is 10.00.

For that reason specifically I don’t have my nails done all the time because it’s hard to get into the salon every 2 weeks. My nails also usually start lifting around the 2 week mark.

[@shannonlyvers3238]

I have the opposite problem. I routinely go bout 4-5 weeks between fills because they grow so slowly I can get away without much growth showing for that long. If I have to longer, I can. My mother's nails grow out faster so once a month is kind of her limit. Everyone is different.

Absolutely Wonderful. Thank You Suzie, I truly appreciate You 😁

[@mahailanie7101]

You are an awesome lady. Thank you for always giving us information. I haven’t had acrylics in years but this is very informative.

[@youtubeguest6177]

My favorite thing about Thursdays is when Suzie uploads

[@Tyme2Parti]

The client also doesn't need a mask as they only get their nails done once a month or so... where as the tech is doing this day in and day out... amplifying the effects. It has an accumulated effect for her.

[@raya74]

Now with covid everyone has to wear a mask

[@maneezeigler3848]

You have no idea how much I appreciate this video. Thank you queen!!!

[@female.leader.of.vatican.city.]

I love how kind you are to her 🥰 she seems a bit uncomfortable but you still are so sweet about it

[@itzpita2435]

Lol, she said “ask that comment in the questions” 😭😂

[@Thepurfektdrug]

I remember when you did this set its been 5 weeks already?!?

[@cherylcampbell8149]

After the video is done being edited (which takes a long time) it’s a few weeks since Liz had her refill.

[@siouxhazeldon2545]

I am so grateful for all the information & advice you show us on your posts Suzi, thank you so much. KZbin has helped me with my studies. I passed my Nail Technician exam on Tuesday & I'm over the moon. Thanks again 😊💖💅🎉🥂🍾

[@joyceboston5536]

Very educational Suzie. Love absorbing this knowledge. Thank you.

[@Planetbluevideos]

My nail lifted once and it had a tip. When I went for infills, my tech had to file the side of the tip off. She then sculpted the nail herself without a form and it was perfect, matched the rest.

[@thenailgurultd1741]

Finally early to a video, my inspiration every day! The whole reason I started my nail salon 💕💅

[@pandoramuse57nails78]

Thank you for all you have taught me and giving me the inspiration to return to my one love of nails.

[@everythingskincare]

You the best, love all your videos very detailed explanation.

[@schnioula]

Lovely women, so kind to each other! Girlpower goals! 😘

[@nosiphodywili35]

Suzie is the Nail Whisperer !

[@lorece94]

I appreciate how thoroughly you explain everything!

[@argentia_2802]

I love this woman so much she's soooo sweet !

[@amiewhitley7231]

Id travel to canada just to get my nails done by Suzie 💕

[@thixiemattel]

Amie Whitley bucket list item for sure! Suzie is a crutch for me when my anxiety is really high (PTSD and I have clinical insomnia) so meeting her would be like meeting Batman.

[@amiewhitley7231]

@honey tears 涙 omg your lucky, have u had your nails done?? Xx

[@RollerFoxx]

I'm sure you can find amazing nail techs in your city, too!

[@espmag5824]

Whenever a nail lifts or starts to come off and I’m too busy to get them redone I just kinda take em off 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 only one coming off trips out my OCD

[@astridy6631]

Esp Mag I am the same way. I also cant stand nail polish chips, I.ll take off all the polish or redo everything.

[@hopee.wankenobi1085]

Omg I can totally relate! ❤️

[@tracyambler1058]

Why not soak off and start again?

[@_heatheryvonne_]

How do you take them off?

[@margaritafridays8442]

Do all of you just slip another nail under the lift and work it off? ** asking for a friend ** 😂😂😂

[@sylwiagmurzynska4953]

Suzie you’re so nice,no judging, just understand what people do with their nails 😊 As you say its your business to repair all damage on nails I wish all people from this industry think like that 😊 I love your movies I start do my nails after one video. I was new you will be my guru ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I use a gel to build my nails but education is this same no matter what product I use. Love you and wish all the best ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Tasha22Bella]

I love nail art and education videos even though I'm not a nail tech.. And I have to say of the many techs that I watch here on KZbin, there's 3 that I feel are true teachers who given the chance I'd love to learn from on a one on one basis: Kirsty Meakin from Naio, Celina Ryden and you Suzie... Video's like this video right here are the reason I fell in love with your channel, your ability to teach even a novice complex yet important nail related issues and techniques is truly awesome.. Thank You for sharing your knowledge and congratulations on all the success you've had with your channel to you and camera man!!!

[@juwairiyyahatcha6809]

I was so into the whole nail education thing and then bomb!!... A BTS ad 🤣💜 By the way thank you for uploading this , it's good to know these things so you'll never go wrong 💛💛💛

[@jenniferbunnylady7687]

Forgive my ignorance please, but what is a BTS ad?

[@juwairiyyahatcha6809]

@@jenniferbunnylady7687 issa okayss Bts is a Kpop group/band , I expected a normal advert to play but a Bts music video ad played instead..

[@sugargirl9063]

Asked that comment in the questions? o.O Well happy the video is finally here :D

[@JoMoneyBudgets]

Okay but I love your personality, And your relationship with your client so kind, and funny. I wish my nail tech was like that. I have very small nails they're long but the width is so slim. I always get laughed at when they see them. It makes me so uncomfortable and embarrassed. I never felt ashamed of my nails and insecure about them until getting them done. But I love the fact that you don't judge you don't question. You can tell how comfortable the client is and how great that bond is. You are a great people person and I wish you were my nail tech!!! 😭

[@valeriasindicic6256]

Suzie, you really are a proffesional, but most of all, I love your personality. We need more people like you in this world

[@haleyr6800]

"comment in the question"- sentence of the year made by Suzie 😅

[@SakuraaaHarmony]

How do I find a nail tech like this?!

[@guthimup]

You’ve literally taught me and inspired me to do so much nail art 💕 My family and I aren’t the wealthiest, we’re considered “comfortable”. So we don’t really have a lot of money to spend on nail stuff :( but it’s still fun to watch and learn a professional show me how it’s done!! 💕💕

[@MPCharron]

Removing a lift is sooooo satisfying 🤤 Everytime one of my client has some, I NEED to tell them that it is one of favorite part! 😂

[@juicyparsons]

especially when a big chunk comes off lol

[@liriosogno6762]

I'm looking forward to the bacteria/infection video!

[@blueberrypomegranate]

The file on the nature nail makes me nervous. I had a nail tech file through my natural nail a few to many times . I have such anxiety now when my nails ever get filed for fills even with a new nail tech that has never done that to me.

[@haleykae879]

not a nail tech but I've been watching you for years--and other tutorials as well. It makes me very happy to see videos where you are filing off lifting instead of snipping it off with cuticle nippers like I've seen some people do (it makes me cringe so hard) also, hair slivers are the WORST. So painful and so much harder to get out of your skin than anything solid like a wood splinter.

[@ChrissieP106]

I glue my acrylic's back on all the time when I don't have time to redo it. 🥺 Don't have me Suzie!

[@emilywhitaker9875]

I’m confused. I usually leave my nails if they’re lifting but when I go to the nail salon they glue down the lifted nails with super glue themselves. Multiple salons do that in my area. Does anyone else have this?

[@merdiehansen6899]

Emily Whitaker yes i was wondering the same thing. my nail tech does this!

[@shannonlyvers3238]

Clearly they are crappy techs and more interested in cutting corners than doing it right.

[@ShalayKyles]

Let me tell you how much I love you! You're the only KZbin personality that tries to answer all of us! I love that, that inspires me to try to be like that on my channel. I'm just restarting my channel so I don't have a bunch of subscribers. When I do though I'm going to still try to get to all of my comments, and I'll try to answer everyone and their questions. That's why I love your channel.

[@macik085]

Love this type of video.Like real trouble shooting with real clients.Thank you for this.

[@axellevalentine8033]

"a few of you ask that comment in the questions" sis, i ly

[@celestevelez26]

*Question* How do you deal with a person that gets refill but has contracted some bacteria and didn't notice till the fill in process?🤔

[@victorianmansion8986]

celestevelez26 uhh tell them? Wtf ? and take off all that nail stuff and go see a doc immediately.

[@vcamie8755]

A nail tech should never cover a bacteria with more product. You have to remove the enhancement and wait for the green/brown/black spot to grow out. Hard lesson for clients who glue their nails back and give themselves a bacterial infection. 😶

[@lolai5363]

I love watching her videos. I’m trying to grow out my nails and she gives me motivation. I’ve had shortbitten nails since I can remember. My dream is to have beautiful nails. I would love to go to a nailsalon to get my nails done. 🙂

[@Filbie]

That was really satisfying, thanks Suzie!

[@nikkiqu4818]

I start my nail journey Monday! I’m super exited to become a nail tech it has been one of my dreams!

[@Tatjana-_-]

Is it possible to make my nails grow slower? I have to get a new set every three weeks and it's annoying because they lift after three and a half. It's very expensive😅

[@juicyparsons]

start smoking cigarettes probably lol

[@TehMakeUpMage]

I started doing my own nails with polygel. Much cheaper

[@lalabell2]

Chantelle Marie what brand polygel do you use ? Where do u get them ?

[@knives.3733]

Im not even into nails, yet this is somehow real fun and interesting to watch. Kind of soothing too.

super helpful video! really enjoyed watching 😀😀
