Yay!!! Grant's back. I rewatch his playlist all the time to prep for doing my sister's bitten nails and it's always fun to hear the suzie and grant banter.

[@FreeMoney-13]

I'm appalled. My name is Grant, I am a nail biter, and doing much better at it! I'm just trying to learn how to manicure myself to not look so damaged there.

[@FreeMoney-13]

What's worse is I also have curly brown hair and have very similar glasses

[@atherisGAY]

Thank you for not being judgemental towards nail biting. ❤️ I got ridiculed for my nails before and I am too scared to go to a nail salon.

[@roxymoore3579]

That’s so sad. All of my clients are anxious nail bitters and I turn them in to long natural nails wearing.

[@lissa3262]

Oh nooo! That's awful! I'm sure that was just a bad nail salon! Have you tried going to a new one yet?

[@rosevanguard]

Nail biters anonymous. NBAs

[@ItsJuicyJett]

I mean 🤷🏽‍♀️ stop biting them. I wouldn’t ridicule you. You know how nasty they look. I would simply turn you away. Idk why nail biters feel entitled to services. Your nails are not healthy! And that’s no one’s fault but yours.

[@Pernilla3]

No that is sad. Has a nail technician I LOVE helping nail biting clients too get beutifull nails. Love from Sweden 🥰

[@Brooke.E1]

Okay as a special effects makeup artist little tip. Please know that these little tiny bottles of liquid latex for nails are super overpriced. Now I understand people dont plan to use a lot so thats why these little bottles are convenient, however a bottle for half an ounce is $6-10 depending on where you get it from, a special effects makeup bottle of liquid latex for 16 ounces (which i know most of you wont need, but there are smaller size bottles) is roughly $10. and around halloween time most stores with halloween costumes will have these bottles and if you wait for them to go on sale itll be even cheaper. I have used my regular special effects makeup latex all these years and it works just the same :)

[@des10845]

Yes!! Thank you..! My moms a special effects makeup fanatic!! Especially on halloween 😂 so I poured a little bit of her liquid latex into a jar for me to use for nails and iv been telling all my friends about It! Sooo much cheaper.

[@Brooke.E1]

@@des10845 yesss! When I saw those little bottles come out and how expensive they were I was so mad for everyone who had no idea how much they were getting ripped off! I try and tell everyone whenever its brought up so I'm glad I'm not alone😂

[@seraphimdagger]

Thank you so much for the tip ❤ I’ve been looking at those little bottles and I couldn’t convince myself to pay the price for that amount 😂

[@Brooke.E1]

@@seraphimdagger Of course! When I saw them start coming out I was so annoyed because I knew so few people would know how over priced they are for what you are getting, so I like to share that info when I can! You can also use q-tips to apply or if you want to be a bit more precise get some cheap disposal paint brushes (the latex ruins brushes).

[@TallulahFoxxx]

As an MUA and nail tech, I agree lol. It’s crazy to me how many things we’ve been using for years and years, that become popular because of TikTok or whatever, and some company decides to capitalise on it by making it into its own “product” lol. When I worked at a TV studio, to get rid of flyaways or secure whispies without pins or spray, I used spoolies (disposable mascara wands). It prevents the client/guest’s hair from getting too sticky with hairspray or having visible pins. Imagine my horror to see an ad on social media for “the magic flyaway tool!” - it was £10/$13. It was literally a spoolie. That’s it. 😂😂😂😂😂 And all the comments were like “WOW I need this!”, all tagging their friends 😭 I’m like “no - no you don’t”.

[@ally3harkins]

I knew that was Grant good to see him

[@jaydingiesler5280]

Thanks Suzy, love to see Grant back. While I am not a nail biter, I am an inattentive cuticle picker, and share many of the same problems as Grant. That scene where you saw the wound on his other hand is what all my fingers have looked like for years. Watching your videos and trying extensions are the only two things that have ever helped, but I’m still trying to find harmony and rhythm with all this. Please keep inviting Grant back, he is very helpful ❤

[@user-su1bi8xx9d]

I'm a dentist and we use something called PTFE tape all the time. It's really useful for putting on an adjacent tooth to the one being restoring with say composite (very similar material to builder gel I guess and you light cure it) to stop it bonding to the tooth next to it. And then you just floss the tape off. I think it would work really well for protecting the skin around the nails too

[@nicksurfs1]

Like plumbers tape? I can see why that would work. Just funny to think of how different the uses can be haha

[@user-su1bi8xx9d]

@@nicksurfs1 yes pretty much! But the one we use is super thin, almost like gold leaf

[@hausofluzon]

Same I'm dentist too 💝

[@immoralities]

How would you detach the tape from the skin after placing the nail. The mouth has saliva, obviously a natural lubricant. & adjacent teeth aren’t supposed to actually be attached to each other lol. I don’t think tape would be easy to remove unfortunately. But unfortunately, neither is liquid latex. It’s incredibly difficult to remove all of the liquid latex.

[@user-su1bi8xx9d]

@@immoralities it's not an adhesive tape. It's very thin and kind of self-sticks to everything. You can just peel it off quite easily. It's actually a tape that plumbers used traditionally!.. But dentists have started using it a lot

[@Kaeracter]

Thank you so much for this. My mother has a severely damaged big toe nail (checked out by doctors) and our plan was to make her a fake nail. We talked about the possibility of developing an allergy and she was ok with the risk, so I ordered your hybrid gel. I was still concerned (she's my mom after all) about causing an allergy due to the amount of exposed skin I'd have to to put the gel on. I have liquid latex from Holo Taco and it didn't occur to me that it would be the perfect thing to use. Thankfully, my mom doesn't have a latex allergy. If she ends up developing one, I also have the non latex nail aprons I could try. So genuinely, thank you. Its a serious relief!!

I loved this! I'm a nail biter and that's exactly why I started getting acrylic sets. None of the places of gone use forms though- they all just add on types and then shorten them down. But now i've had them so long, the fake tip is gone and it's just overlay on my natural nail. Would love to hear Susie's perspective on forms vs tips though!

[@paulaczarnomska2712]

Not a biter but a picker and scratcher causing me to have an ‘adult acne’ (it’s not, just a mechanical damage). Homemade fake nails give me a fun hobby and stop me from having pimples all over my face, neck and back. Thank you Suzie 🥰

I actually tried this a couple years ago on myself when I had a very short bloody break. I gave it a chance to heal, but I was too impatient for it to grow out! I used two layers of Elmer's white glue instead of liquid latex, and it worked like a charm! It's good to see Grant again 😊

They definitely are !!! Love watching them

[@draggonsgate]

GRANT!!! So good to see you kiddo! It was because of you I started getting my nails done and stopped biting them (mostly...lol)... Suzie, my nail tech went with tips and clear powder, because I wanted them to be as "natural" looking as possible. Once they grew out over the skin, I continued getting clear powder nails done to stop my biting. Now, almost a year later, I'm doing the powder, and occasional tip, when I do manage to bite one off, myself. Thank you BOTH for giving me the opportunity and basic skill set to be a non-biter after 58 years!

[@NailCareerEducation]

Wow! What a fabulous journey Happy to help 🧡

No lie, I bit my nails for decades. Your videos have helped me a long way on doing my own enhancements. Right now, I'm rocking some orange almonds to be festive.

[@pinkt-rex4302]

Hi. I'm also a nail technician and I just did hard gel extensions to my client's nails weeks ago. It was my first time doing a client with an overly bitten nails and she really wanted to have medium set of extensions and she also said that that was her first time having it as some other nail shops doesn't wanna do her nails and so when I accepted her to test my limits everything went well in the end and she was really happy with the results. Now it's been two weeks since and she haven't been back yet, I hope all of her extensions are still on and I can't wait to see her 🥰

[@NailCareerEducation]

Wow, that’s excellent. Good for you. I know it’s hard sometimes because you’re nervous about proceeding forward on something you’re not 100% sure on. But there’s nothing like gaining experience and going for it. Just a little tip that might help you so you don’t have to wonder how she’s doing, I always offer a free mini Mani 7 to 10 days after I do a nail bitten client. This way I get to fix whatever needs to be done correct anything I missed and I get to see how she’s doing. Bonus is she gets a freebie and another connection with you which makes the relationship stronger.. 💛

[@TeddieBean]

YAY GRAAAAAAANT! So good to see you both together again giggling and the back and forth 🤣🥰 so cute 💖

[@rebeccajay2262]

This is BRILLIANT!! I have a client whose nails are a bit worse than Grant's. I've been struggling with this very issue. You solved an age old problem, Suzie! Which is why you're the QUEEN! Could you do a follow up video? About the next appointment, where you're continuing to follow the client & helping them actually grow their nails out a bit. That would be SOO helpful!! Thank you!!

[@2u2a]

Please don't do this. Latex allergies are even more common ones than to the nail products. You can cut the forms but in the different ways. You cut into both sides a bit. Idk how to explain. This method is very common in my country (Poland) so I bet you can see this method on some Polish nail youtube (like quloo channel for example). This way allows you to cover all the skins and get into each corner. And it's very quick when you master it.

[@addonayguaquel2044]

Hi! Does this work while using a uv light? I'm pretty sure it'll stick forever onto my skin. I was just asking since I don't use acrylic only polygel 😭

[@pedinurse1]

I was a terrible nail biter, till I saw one of my classmates' gorgeous nails. She always had these gorgeous manicures, and I never ever bit my nails again.

[@susanna6462]

Yay Grant is back! I love his vids bc I’m also a nail biter (I’ve been working on quitting for YEARS but it’s really hard as it’s a bit OCD and anxiety/stress driven). I’ve gotten a lot better that I’ve actually been practicing nails on my hands! But I definitely have a lot of that callously/ thick skin at the sides and ends that Grant has too. It makes shaping hard for me bc I get a lot of lifting and struggle with the filing after.

[@kelseahamilton9160]

Great thought Suzie! My only concern would be latex allergies. I myself have them but I could wear gloves if I was using it on clients however many people do have latex sensitivities which is why most if not all hospitals have switched to Nitrile gloves rather than latex based. New Suzie product…non latex finger protector lol.

[@nailsofinterest]

Hey Suzie, cameraman and Grant💜💖💜

[@Bigb00bs_umchileanywaysso]

I’m a nail biter but I only bite my right hand so I can grow my nails really long on my left hand and they look gorgeous. But I can’t function with long nails on my right hand

[@worldatwardan]

Another hack for nail biters fingers is to use cling film( glad wrap) on the nail. This way you can pull the finger tip below nail level. This worked well for me as I was a nail biter. It works well and does not push forms up.

I’ve been watching nail content for years but I never got the courage to try an E-file myself. I was so lost with all the other nail videos about Russian manicure and how to prep the nails and everyone has different things to say, But when I came across your videos and how you made things so much organized and simplified it really helped me a lot!! Thank you so much Susie for all the tips and tricks! your videos are really game changer ❤❤

[@Madtigres]

One concern Susie, you need to make sure the client has no latex allergies and you need to have an alternative for those that do or you can maybe cut a piece of your little center sticky of the form out to cover the skin like the latex did. I don't know if that would work or not

[@qt_stacy]

i can almost guarantee she knows this however i think it would’ve been nice for her to mention definitely. however i don’t believe she even takes clients like that anymore, anyway. she probably has a very limited and exclusive client list considering her main income comes from content creation

[@Madtigres]

@@qt_stacy You can't know that she earns most of her income from KZbin. I believe she still works in a salon because she says Grant is one of her oldest clients, and she may still make most of her income in her salon or training new nail technicians. If you watch some of her other videos she brings nail technicians that work in her salon and do their nails for her videos at times. I love the idea of the liquid latex, I just thought it would be safe and right to mention that she forgot to recall that in this video. Thank you so much for your pleasant approach to what you say to me. I appreciate that it is not aggressive or argumentative. And if you find what I have said to be any of those please let me know. I can be very blunt and to the point without meaning to be rude I come off as rude. I speak from a place of love for everyone because that is what my God and my savior the Lord Jesus Christ require of me. I also come from a place of love because everyone on this Earth deserves to know that they are loved. It's not a job to me it's something I enjoy doing. With that I say I love you, I hope you stay safe and be blessed.

Man is hilarious. Watching back caus I ate up my cuticles and he cracks me up :P I think my nails are now shorter than his and my safest bet is a full nail cover. Tiny tremmors and tiny nails do not work well. But my nailbed basicly has no apex? I guess soft gell full cover then works best? Any suggestions, other then stop eating my cuticles would be helpful bc the fake nails always pop off? That is mainly bc I don't bite I pick at my nails.

I Really Really Thank you for having this Nail biting education. My sister sticks her fingers in her mouth ALLLLL the time. I know she bites her nails. She states she is biting the skin. Either way she has very flat nails and extremely thin and her nails look like Grants just not as bad. I struggle with nails staying on her and I hope you make more videos like these!! Grant is very much like my sister and her nails are sensitive. My sister is very picky and you mentioned that everything that might be an irritant she will stick in her mouth. I am going to try that method. I have also just 2 weeks ago just decided to do acrylic overlay just on her natural nails and so far Great success. As you stated she then becomes use to her nails growing and I am still keeping my fingers crossed we continue to have success. I am doing her nails again after a week and a half and still on with some lifting. But she is still biting (her skin) she says. I will try the latex method if we have to start over. I am hoping the acrylic overlay did the trick. Thank you Thank you Thank you for having a video like this. I think if you can achieve putting any type of product on a nail biter's nails you will have success with ALL Types of nails. Nail biters are the most extreme and I believe the most difficult and pickiest and roughest, challenging and worst clients to have. But on the upside of those types of people you can problem solve you start finding products that you think will work and that it doesn't matter in the end it does the same and the same cause and effects happen. You end up finding methods that work. I need more Grant videos and I hope he and you work on more problems solving with nail biting techniques or tricks. I can't stop praising you on making this video I have struggled with my sister's nails and she wants nails and they fall off in 1-3 days after just having them put on. I LOVE this type of Nail Education. Just the overlay I thought of and like I said so far so good. Which makes me happy! Thank you so very much Grant. Susie and I can't forget Cameraman for making suck an EXQUISITE nail education video! I really want to see more of Grant and nail biting techniques and hopefully a follow up after it grows out to see what problems if any occurred during the grow out.

[@NailCareerEducation]

You’re right they can be picky. I think it’s because they want the end result to look like somebody who does not have bit nails. So not they strive for that perfection. And to my knowledge, the reason why people bite nails is because their perfectionists. So naturally, they would be picky when it comes to their nails LOL

My DIL is a nail biter. She finally allowed me to do her nails, and that cured her of it. She actually has long nails that are her natural nail with gel overlay. Well, "long" for her, anyway. 😁

[@Flamy96]

I just use tips when I bite my nails 😊 So happy to see Grant back! ❤️

[@nickmarion1410]

Grant is back!!!! Those are my favorite videos!! Both of you make me comfortable as a guy to get my nails done!!

[@NailCareerEducation]

🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@YanF88]

Grant!!!!! Oh my god, I’m screaming!!!!!!!!! We missed you guys together. Yay!!!! 😃❤🎉

[@Dani_sister4peace]

I'm sure Grant just made his dentist happy 😊

[@ani917e]

Hi Suzy, I love all your videos! I'm just curious, do you know if there are any risks of developing something similar to a greenie in that tiny gap between the skin and extension as water and debris might get in and collect germs? It looks like a genius technique but it's something that jumps to mind. I love learning from your content and am very curious if there are any precautions to be practiced in this case?

[@Dani_sister4peace]

Ear buds for Grant next time. 🥰🥰🥰

[@kinleybrault9642]

I hope you have a great day 😊

[@katherinebourke171]

I'm so glad you did this because I had a mishap with my nails while removing my polygel nails. I over filed and so now my nails are SUUUPER thin and horribly short. I NEED to put something on my nails, even if it's just to protect them. I bought some of that Silicone stuff to do exactly what you had just done, but I wasn't sure how or if it was actually going to work...now I know😊 So THANK YOU so very much for this video and it's perfect timing LOL

[@brendaoneill1581]

Love all your videos! One question...where would I buy that liquid latex to protect the skin?

[@NailCareerEducation]

Hollow taco sells it

[@Brooke.E1]

if you plan to use it very often I would suggest the liquid latex you use for halloween makeup (which you can get on amazon). These little bottles are great if you dont use much, but for the amount you get they are very expensive compared to the bottles you get for makeup use. They both are liquid latex and both work the same :)

[@Vixenvp]

Yay Grant’s back!!! I love seeing him as a guest. I rewatch the grant series all the time. I’m excited to see more videos 😁😁

[@moonlightened]

he likes the sound I left right after that ✌🏾

[@Stephofcourse]

I’m a nail biter since I was 10. I started doing my own nails about 6 months ago and it has helped so much. I’ll still bite if I don’t have product though 😅 so I keep them up as best as I can

[@BillyLeeGoodman]

I love seeing you not only be non-judgemental towards such habits, and helpful, but also to see someone with bitten nails that look like mine! let's me know I am know alone.

[@Mshankins]

I miss seeing you on her .is that grant omg

[@NailCareerEducation]

I post every week - I’m HERE❤️

[@DipsyMum29]

As a fellow nail biter I can empathise. Another option is to get some good quality glue and use glued on TOE NAILS. They are much shorter than even the shortest fake finger nails and because of that last longer on our tiny nail beds. They last about a week so are not as good as a longer solution, but it’s for those people who are too self conscious to visit a salon.

[@tonilarimore8863]

Awesome job! The additional graphics helped explain the issues of the bitten nails and placement of the form. I really appreciate that. I don't have to guess if I understood. Grant is a fun guest, but you always have interesting guests.

[@karmenweiss9252]

so happy i missed grant you guys always seem like you have so much fun together love you guys so much you rock

[@karos108]

I am skipping chit chat part. The rest is very useful. Thank you 🙏🏻 😇

[@cynthiahazebroek4281]

Heeee grant’s back!!!! I love you two so much! Great tutorial, I will remember this hack for sure

[@HaleyDawn85]

Unrelated to the products in this video but im trying to work with your line of Jelly gels and am having a hard time getting it to cure. Is there a certain wattage light that is required? Im using a 48 watt lamp right now but cannot get it to cure all the way. It cures to almost a rubber feel and is very very flexible. Any suggestions to help? I really love the consistency of this and am really hoping to get it to cure properly! Thanks so much!

[@chuezo8225]

That's a really good idea putting on that thin layer to protect skin from the product. I love Suzie's chewing sound effects.😂

[@awallswifek9075]

Oh this is a great video. I love when You and Grant get together and just vibe. An this video is a big help for when I do my daughter nails. She bites her nails just as bad as Grant does. So I put fake nails on to help her stop. Thank you Suzie and Grant. One love ✌🏼❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤💅

[@susannheartss]

Suzi what a great video!! LOVED the super helpful graphics when you're explaining

[@laurastradling-cloete6808]

I love this video. I dont bite my nails but they rip something awful when I dont have product on. definitely going to try this trick! Thank you Suzie!!!

[@girlypopgay]

I’ve had long nails my entire life. And in the moments where they get incredibly long, and I’m doing things differently, opening cans differently, typing different, etc, I don’t notice it. Bc over the course of weeks and months I’ve unconsciously adapted. But that’s me having long nails since like eight years old. And breaking, chipping, slicing, bending back, and tearing my nails for the last fifteen years. I’m just glad they never mentioned anything ab stuff getting stuck under there. Bc I have been been mocked and degraded by family members with ‘jokes’ like that since it became apparent I wasn’t going to cut my nails (bc sensory issues). Cos that does not happen. Not in the way people think or assume.

[@terribright1773]

What was the name of the latex based product you found at Sally's? Thanks

[@marthatownsend7702]

SUSIE, u should of left it raw...tiz the season for frankenstien nails...tehee :P Love ya Grant!

[@samiyarossini]

Probably the only reason I'm not a nail biter is I have the slightest over-bite, so I can't grab the nails. lol But I do have short nail beds, so I appreciate videos like this!

[@Sheywh12]

Susie, Thanks for the video great Job! I also used the latex while learning these nail process's II'm a DIY'er Can I ask where did you get it with a sponge that looks so much easier to apply than the nail polish top is. thanks Sheila W

[@alyssafreeman1692]

I was so worried Grant moved away! So happy to see his sunshiney face!

[@krishyncaldwell5895]

Thank you for sharing this hack. I am not a nail biter (I do tend to nibble on my cuticles now and then), but I am in a re-growth stage and saw this video and I am hoping to do this trick. Do you think the latex peel will work just the same with dual forms and BG? I absolutely SUCK at the paper forms and have found dual forms to be much easier (especially since I do my own nails). Thank you for any advice you may offer.

[@TheGrossDemon]

His poor fingies!!!! His hands take me back tho lmao, I used to be a massive nail biter in HS, my hands looked just like that except I would bite them so far they'd bleed 😢. Thankfully it wasn't so bad that the skin on the end raised above the nail bed tho. I stopped biting my nails by painting them all the time... and biting my toe nails instead 😅. But now my nails get really long which I love, but I'm working on making them stronger so they don't break all the time.

[@bonsaibaby8257]

Is that latex natural or includes natural latex? Many people are allergic to latex or can become allergic to it after several exposures to it.
