HOW TO DO ENCAPSULATED FLOWER NAILS AT HOME *GEL-X NAILS*

[@Dawnbomb87]

Nail tech here. I love your videos. Amazing. When using apres like systems, you can not fully paint the nail and then put them on. It does not matter how long you cure it for, the gel will never fully cure. You can only pre paint the extensions if your doing French looks. Apres also makes a sensitive gel now, that has no hema in it.

[@kayliboyle]

good to know! i already tried the sensitive gel one from apres and still had an allergy sadly😩

[@gay9600]

@@almostpigeons you can still do it if you want but just cure it long enough

[@kier9583]

omg, I learned this the hard way after doing a glow in the dark nail set & omg it was my proudest nails…. then the apres wouldn’t cure😩 but i’m very glad for this comment bc i was about to try it again. Thank you!!

[@norap.9663]

@@gay9600 sadly that’s not accurate. Due to the paint on top blocking the still liquid gel underneath from direct UV/LED light contact it will not cure. No matter the duration. For this same reason dark colours should always be applied super thinly so as to cure all the way through.

[@gay9600]

@@norap.9663 I guess it depends coz I do it all the time but make sure to fully cure the side though

[@got7lhchen937]

Personal experience: When I am soaking off my nails I usually leave a thin layer of base coat gel on to protect my natural nails from breaking it. And leave my natural nails for about a week or two before I start to do the next set.🥰🥰🥰

Thank you for this tip. Always wanted to know how often you should do this. No one ever talks about that

[@Ana-gk1my]

hey hey! not a certified professional (yet) but I've been doing my own nails for over 5 years now (hard gel, acrylic, gel x, etc) and my suggestion for you since you do nail content is to get a PEEL OFF base coat. you apply it after cuticle work and before the gel (don't sand your natural nails in this case) and that way they will easily pop off with some nail oil and wood sticks. ofc this is for situations where you want to change nail looks every day. this way u won't be sanding the nail plate every time and taking off natural and precious layers of nail for no reason (which as microscopic as they are they still r being sanded off) and you don't have to soak the nails off with pure acetone (which also is very damaging to your nails and cuticles and overall skin of the hands with the frequency that you are doing it) i hope it helps 💕 love your videos!

[@nettasnails]

I have fell absolutely in love with encapsulation. It started when I began watching longhairprettynails so anything dealing with capping is for meeeee lol.

[@rhayanedelima1328]

My nails used to be very very weak and they would break all the time, but then i started using a strengthening topcoat especially the keratin yellow one works so great. Apply one coat each day and you will see results, also use jojoba oil on them so they learn to bend and not snap if and accident were yo happen, THIS LITTERALY SAVED MY NAILS!

Genetically I am blessed with thin nails that grow wide. The only time I was able to grow my nails was during quarantine when I didn't have to do much with my hands. A good cuticle oil & keeping your hands out of water as much as possible helped the most! And yes, prep is 100% everything when keeping on nails for 2-3 weeks.

[@helenhemphill8277]

Omg the thing abt the contact dermatitis shed some light on my issue. I recently started getting small blisters under my skin from doing my nails and I was so confused. Thx so much for explaining it tooo :)

[@janazgrace]

I typically give my natural nails a break from any manipulation for about 3-4 weeks and use a gel or regular top coat to help prevent breakage. Along with applying nail oil daily helps to strengthen the nail bed :)

[@BabyBear046]

Your videos are the best on youtube, in my opinion! I love that your designs are more... designed. Lol that doesn't make sense. But I mean is that other channels are mostly just sticking as many huge gemstones or other stuff as possible onto really long nails. There's nothing wrong with that, but that's all I can find! I, personally, love to actually paint cute little designs onto my nails, add little stickers, or do more encapsulated stuff like in this video. I love your videos! You're so talented!

[@germanda9516]

hi love what ure doing !! a little advice from someone who also has naturally brittle nails, when you use a dehydrator you could use only a tiny amount and avoiding touching the cuticles/skin as its a pretty strong chemical for someone who might change their set often for content ! nature's bounty has pretty good hair skin nails vitamin for a cheaper option does not completely toughen my nails but it helped my nail lifting from the nail bed itself :) thank you for the lovely tutorial !!

[@germanda9516]

use poly gels as a hardener gel it is so much stronger than the usual hard thick viscosity gels salons use alth poly gels r for extending the nails it still works like magic

[@sophiab9203]

when i’m trying to grow my nails, i always oil them often (they always feel strong after), and always have them painted cause the polish sort of creates a protective layer. also i file them often to make sure the corners don’t chip and stuff. also always use a base coat!!

[@cupcakemenace2036]

Hi! I'm a natural nail gel girl, and you asked for tips so I hope they can help. First, Do not put hard gel on your natural nails. You're not really supposed to put any gel directly on your natural nails. You can't soak off hard gel so every time you remove your nails you are making your nails thinner and thinner. If you put a base coat between the hard gel and your nail then it won't hurt them so bad. Use soak off gel. There are plenty of products that can provide hard durable extensions without being a hard gel product. If you like builder gel you can buy soak off builder but I prefer polygel. Never have naked nails. If your nails are currently in a brittle state they will break if you leave them naked. I'm recovering from being overfiled at a nail salon (they used a mandrel bit on my nail beds) so the tips of my nails are incredibly thin (like if I press on them too much they'll be uncomfortable) so if I want to keep my length and protect the nail I at least put a coat or two of base and top coat. Nails no matter how damaged will grow. So if you're maintaining that growth and making sure it won't break you'll have longer nails. That's pretty much all I have since you're already moisturizing well.... good luck!

[@avery.laur22]

okay, I struggle with short, thin, brittle nails and the best thing I can offer is making your own mixture of oils! I love the trader joes oils to make my own cuticle/nail oil. I use a mix of jojoba oil, tea tree oil, and vitamin e oil. I mix it up and use a q tip to apply to my cuticles each night and it helped soo much! I thought I had tried every commercial nail strengthener, lengthener, and others. I love your videos and I hope that helps!

[@dream-zk4xl]

[@michellefrate]

I love these!!!!! They turned out so nice 😍 I also do my own nails at home and the best advice I can give you to not damage your nails is to NEVER rip off your extensions when you want to remove them. Gel, acrylic, dip, whatever extension you use, does NOT damage natural nails. The prep (if you buff too much before applying the nails) and the removal (especially if you rip off the fake nails) is what causes damage. I always have gel on my nails because it keeps them strong and stops little chips from happening which is what would always happen when I just had my natural nails. Even though my natural nails aren't super thin and they can be pretty strong, I'd often chip them so what helps is just having gel on them all the time and doing fills. your genetics also plays a huge part in your nail structure. just keep in mind to be kind to your nails and don't rip off fake nails! 🤍

[@palestar828]

If you buff too much before applying the nails... you mean buff the natural nail too much? Abs what kind of gel do you want to have on them all the time? Builder gel or rubber base? (New to this) thank you

[@michellefrate]

@@palestar828 yes exactly, I mean if you buff the natural nail too much :) you don’t have to buff too much for any extension or enhancement to stick. What kind of gel you want on them depends on you! Builder gel is what I use because it’s very strong, plus my nails are long and it keeps them from breaking. If your nails are short, a rubber base and some polish is a great start

[@emma4676]

Hi! I have a question. I always mess up the cuticle area and I was wondering if this may fix it: my idea was to put the tips not fully down to the cuticle but just a tad up so the edge of the tip is more 'free' to file away the spills and then just cover the weird placed bump with colored gel polish because this is quite thick and will not show the ridge!

[@ariadni5531]

graduate from cosmetology/beauty school here, I have actually commented on one of her videos to try to spread awareness on how dangerous it is to cut/bleed your cuticles. you risk getting an infection, if you have medical problems its very dangerous for bacteria to get there and you can also permanently ruin your nail matrix.(1)

[@ariadni5531]

a solution would be to just push back the cuticles back if you're not so familiar with cutting them or use a cuticle cream and lightly remove them with a nail pusher. make sure you clean any dead skin off of your nail plate and you're ready to go. a HUGE mistake that she does is literally shoving the gel x tips into the cuticle and that is very dangerous, as I mentioned in my previous comment you can ruin your nail matrix and its not good at all as you also risk getting an infection. I suggest you to do what you thought of already just to be safe,( stick the tips slightly away from your cuticle and gently file them off later) I hope this helps

[@gretaweiss6802]

Yes this is a good idea! The nail tips don’t have to go all the way down to your cuticle. I watch a lot of Korean nail girls on KZbin and several of them do that! You can either cover the little empty space with gel polish, hard gel, or builder gel. You can file the nail tip a little so it’s more flush with your natural nail, or not. Depends on the thickness of the tips. But yeah, good idea! 👍🏼☺️

[@palestar828]

​@ariadni5531 you seem like a good person to ask this question to... I'm new to this nail stuff. I always wondered with the tips... are you supposed to have them next to the cuticle or do you insert them lightly under the cuticle? I hope this makes sense. According to what you wrote previously, no, you don't want to put them actually under the cuticle.

[@NightSky90s]

Loving this nail design! Perfect for spring! When it comes to curing the gel, I learned a tip from a portuguese brand I usually buy products from, that after you doing all the prep and applied the base coat you should cure your base coat for a little longer because it makes it last longer and don't peel off as easy. I usually cure my nails under a LED light for about 3/4 minutes and it lasts for an entire month even if I just use a gel polish system, I had trouble in the past with hard gel and so I completely understand you, in my case I had to switch to a gel polish system

My nails have been surprisingly strong (knock on wood) with soaking them off. Have you tried tapping your nails? Not your finger tips but you’re actual nails? Like tap them until the lanula starts to ache, it stimulates blood flow right where the nail grows from and helps strengthen the nail.

[@venusflowerbomb3480]

The contact dermatitis should subside after the initial flare. Probably in the future, if the product is fully cured it shouldn’t cause another contact dermatitis flare (which isn’t necessarily always a full blown allergy, rather your skin being sensitive to specific compounds or chemicals in cosmetics). All mail enhancement products - whether acrylic, gel, hard gel , poly gel or dip - cure to be a form of plastic. Once fully cured, the gel you’re using shouldn’t cause the same level of skin irritation as before.

[@mojojojo6536]

Hey Kayli! I did these nails today and after doing the whole encapsulation process, the nail became thicker and just didn't fit on my nail the same way even after I tried using a thinner layer of gel to encapsulate the flowers. Do you have any suggestions for the encapsulation process and getting the nails to fit right on your natural nail?

[@jamiemartin3112]

From what I understand, you have to size up with encapsulated styles because the several layers of gel/curing shrinks the gel tips.

[@rb1192]

great video as always! adheresion is not a word btw, it's either adhere or adhesion :)

[@noel5968]

I have an allergy too. So i bought all hema free gel polish.. still got blisters too but not as severe. But i only had them on for a couple hours and even after removing i got blisters all over my fingers and under my nail i had painful little bumps. It took months to heal. So sad I can’t do uv polishes anymore. At least I still have regular polish from manicurist. Anyway, moral of the story… don’t buy nail kits on amazon. Buy supplies on nail websites/certified sellers

[@adventureswithcliff2109]

Can i ask cause im planning to buy gel x nails instead of polygel, since you are using builder gel which im thankful for the alternative since I can't find any one of those glue for gel x nails, can i ask if should i put base coat before builder gel? Cause i saw in the video that you put the builder gel right away and cured it and proceed to apply the tips, im just asking cause im getting ready for it 🤭

[@EightBitBella]

Heyyyyy so I am new to this (literally just bought all the stuff and I’m watching videos to learn techniques) but will the gel actually cure under the lamp? With the flowers covering them?

[@cassandrabauer3053]

Question for application! I have very flat nail beds and I know I have to fill more gel in to make sure it fits my natural nail. But no matter what I do, I seem to loose my apex. Can you explain a little more how much pressure you put when applying? Or do you just let gravity do the work? Love your videos!

[@corahawk9109]

I’m obviously not her, but I can help! So you’re just supposed to put the right amount of pressure to make sure the gel spreads to the tip of your natural nail (you’re really going to have to figure out what the right amount of gel would be through trial and error) and you want to make sure the sides of the gel-x nail are basically lined up straight with your skin on the sides of your nail. By doing that, it should almost look seamless and the gel-x nail should basically look like that is your nail. I hope that makes sense! It’s hard to describe without showing, haha.

[@user-kb1fn1xs3t]

So in the beginning of the video you explained how you got contact dermatitis. This encapsulated look can cause a reaction too? Since you’re putting things in the way of the nail that can fully cure it? Last time i went to my gel x nail tech she wouldn’t do a look like this on my nails so I’m guessing it’s bc of this problem.

[@juulwijgerse5100]

Hey, you should try 100% natural castor oil! It helped me to grow strong nails! I applied it 3 to 4 times a day all over my nails and after 2 weeks they were longer and stronger.
