Can you wear these for 2 weeks and then show us what they look like and a fill using your new products please and thank you Suzie Career Education

[@ptboy18]

That's probably not possible with a full set of nails and also the frequency that she uploads new nails, designs, etc. Maybe leaving one nail on for a week but 2 weeks would be probably longer than is possible.

I love watching you do nails. I tried acrylic before but thought it was so hard. You make things so simple and understandable. Thank you!!😊

[@debbiep99]

Whoa I just tried ordering the kit and it is almost $200CDN. I'll have to stick with young nails. I can get the same amount for $113CDN. Wish she sold the product in Canada also where she is located. Love you Suzie. I would get it if the price was in Canadian.

[@tunnasch]

The marketplace itself will determine what Suz can charge, and she should charge as much as people will pay. If it gets to be too high for them, they'll go elsewhere, and she'll figure that out soon enough, too. Free enterprise is beautiful, baybee! Everybody wins!

[@philtirah]

I looked into it and found the price a bit surprising as well. I considered what it is, how much your getting, and who is making it. Still, I found it a bit steep. I cant wait until she breaks up this kit as well. My thing is that I never need as much as they send. Lol

[@flamingoooos]

Price is outrageous, only one reason for that, and that reason is what should prevent you from purchasing.

[@deedeeiam]

She has to put it where her primary audience is, and that simply isn't Canada. If she put manufactured and sold in Canada it would have to be even more expensive to break even from the lost revenue

[@zoemetz1648]

I LOVE YOU! ive watched you for about four years, since i was 10. you are the reason why i love doing my nails and why i started. thank you! i love you!

[@janetteq9231]

I am so happy I found this product. I have to admit I was a little skeptical so I bought the trial size that comes with the acrylic. I just started with acrylic and bought some products but only used them a few times. I couldn’t practice all fall and winter as my whole family is super sensitive to the monomer. Thank you SUZIE!!!! Finally a product that will allow me to practice any time I want 😀. This clean monomer is the real deal! I will be using this system from now on. It would be nice to be able to buy the full size on your site. When i tried this today, my husband didn’t even notice I was practicing and when I told him he had a smile on his face. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!💕. And thank you for your detailed videos.

I also want to say I’m glad you made this video most of my acrylic knowledge comes from another KZbinr and if I hadn’t seen this I wouldn’t have thought I would be able to learn with this kit. When I’m fact this seems like it would be perfect for beginners if used properly because of the slow setting. The quickness of acrylic has always scared me but I’m excited to learn with this kit 😊😊 THANK YOU SUZIE!! (Also random but you remind me soooo much of my mom it’s crazy)

[@peachyvee6969]

When will the monomer be sold separately? I friend of mine bought your kit and she liked it, but she said she already had a lot of acrylic so she let me keep the powders, but I’d really like to try the monomer!❤️

My question as well... I can't stand the mononer I bought on amazon. It stinks and takes forever to go away.

Hi Mrs. Suzie I just wanted to let you know I use to watch you when I was in middle school so when I was 13-15 and then I stopped watching because I sorta gave up on doing nails and now I’m 18 and I’m glad to see ur still doing videos and it’s been like 5 years and I’m getting back into doing nails and I’m a lot better at doing nails this time around because your video helped me when I first started and now. So basically I just wanted to say thank you for helping me.

I never got companies calling these colors "pinks"... They look more variations of orange.

Cuz back in the day they were really Pink, so it just stuck even when the pinks got "less pink" I think they're more peach now, if anything. lol definitely not piiink pink.

[@Vote4Pedro211]

Beautiful, as always!

[@LihlCherry]

I am using an Amazon nail drill you reviewed, takes me an hour to take off a full acrylic set. If I use a different bit willl it go faster or is the machine simply not strong enough? Love your vids Suzie!💕

[@NailCareerEducation]

Depends on yr skill level and the bits combined on the efile/ But the e-files on Amazon are not pro level they are much cheaper so they don’t have quite as much strength but if you’re just one person doing your own nails for the price it’s very cost-effective. You certainly could spend for April drill but they are 400 and up and they will get the job done faster but it just depends if it’s worth it for you for just doing yourself. However if you are a professional I highly recommend the more expensive drills

[@LihlCherry]

Nail Career Education Makes sense, thank you!! 🙏🏻

[@kibaetienne2171]

The drill I use I got from amazon. Its from Melody Susie. They have different ones. The one I have is the scarlet nail drill and i would recommend. Their bits are good too

[@KonamiAi]

I also have a melody Suzie and I use the carbide bits to take mine off. Using my dominant hand (right) I can usually take an entire set off in about 15-20 minutes cause I usually go down to the base layer of pink so I don't hit my natural nail. (Suzie tip!) Then I finish off with a hand file and it usually does the trick!

[@mariemadiooch7604]

Absolutely love this set❣️ You’re my mentor as well as my inspiration to get my nail license again here in the states. I would love to order all you items and even this bling Glasses that you purchased in Vegas 😂

[@jessicamccleery6811]

Another great video!!!! I’m hoping to get your kit sooner than later! And Thanks Again for commenting back to me on McKenzie’s review (of your kit) video!!!! It really meant the world to me that you took the time to say such sweet things. You are a huge contributor to my love/ maybe better described as obsession, 😬 for doing nails! Watching your channel has helped me step out of the deep depression - I wallowed in for too long. You lit a fire under my behind, by teaching me about nails, explaining everything in great detail, and helping me find my confidence and desire for nails also motivation to live instead of exist! Nails Is such a healthy way I distract myself. Once I’m immersed into the artistic outlet nails provide, I find myself calm, concentrated, ambitious, and in a positive headspace. It’s also the reason I’ve met some pretty amazing women (on KZbin) that I am proud to call my friends. So when the comment notification pinged, I saw it was you, along with the sweetest message ever, it really made my day! Ps...Cameraman...the quality of your videos are also a work of art! You both work very hard which shines throughout your highly polished YT channel! 🥰 ( dang...I am looong winded😉)

[@_MYSTIC_]

SUZIE I must thank you. Over the years I've been sorely tempted to take up either acrylic or gel nails as a career but never did even when I trained as a hairdresser my focus was always captivated by the manicurists table. Im now trying to decide which type of students starter kit to go for. What would you, or anyone, suggest for a beginner...acrylic or gel? I'm familiar with all the various methods of application, just a little spoilt for choice for what to pick. Is there a brand you feel is best to start with? My budget is modest but my boredom is huge. Im about 70% bedbound so cant work but this would be the perfect skill to learn from my bed. Many thanks X

[@LSan-kd5pw]

Is there anyway you can add the link to the monomer holder you had in the last French video? The top pump well.. not sure if I’m using the correct terms but having that would help with not wasting the product. Please & thank you!!

Such a great video Susie this will really help the people who have bought your kit. Your hair looks great, l have always done my own hair as l had an abscess that burst inside my brain when l was younger so always cut and coloured my own hair. For anyone interested if you go onto amazon you can buy a set of crea clips,they really help in cutting your own hair. I have paid 5£ for them then another set for £2.50. Both from amazon they have the little bubble so that you know that you are cutting your hair straight,you get a big one for layering and another one for cutting straight. You can look up u tube videos on how to use them too.

Just have to say that watching you do nails is so relaxing and calming to me....just love it. During this time of quarantine, I've gotten your starter kit and am just practicing. I do have a question, how long do you let the nail cure before you start filing? I feel like I wait an extra amount of time....is there a tip you have to know when you can begin shaping?

[@NailCareerEducation]

Good question, thank you for asking. It does take about 2-3 mins before it fully cures, it can vary on humidity & temperature to where you are. Once its mostly cured you can run it under warm water for about a minute and it will set the dispersion layer. Then file away 👍🏼

[@N8TheGr8001]

Thank you for your time. Watching you so nails....to me, is like watching Bob Ross paint. During these stressful times, it is so refreshing to watch and hear absolute calmness, patience, and peace. I am very appreciative!
