how to do gel x nails at HOME | *Amazon Products* full tutorial EASY, born pretty polish

[@SybrinaBrina]

I paid $165 to do my nails last week and one already popped off. Definitely investing into learning to do them myself! Thank you!

[@unboundbytiffany]

It's gonna cost alot more than $165 and you'll likely still deal with popping off, but I'm always pro-DiY just please do proper education/research and be very very cautious for allergies. They're really much bigger a deal than YT creators like this make it seem, like her touching gel with her bare skin, big big no-no. Wishing you the best of luck! ❤️

[@SybrinaBrina]

@@unboundbytiffany thank you! I’m going to try my luck, educate myself, and see how it turns out!

[@InwardBeautyMinistries]

@@SybrinaBrinagirl, I’ve been doing my own nails since the pandemic and haven’t went to a salon in over a year! It’s easy! We been painting our nails since we were kids! You got this ❤

[@Dr.Venice]

Practice makes perfect 🥰 I've been doing my own for over 10 years, I started doing my own because I was very young and didn't have the money to pay and maintain nail salon nails... and now that I can afford it I rather not spend that money anyway 😅

[@excel03]

@SybrinaBrina Girl I paid that much to buy the products for gel x and it as paid themselves off. At least you can repair your own nails for free!

[@wallflower777]

thank you for not gatekeepingg, i've been wanting to do my own nails for the longgestttt TY TY TY 🌟🌟🌟💚💚💚💚💚

[@sunflowii9420]

Don’t get me wrong i love getting my nails done, but sometimes i feel like there can be days where the technician is rushing or it doesn’t come out right as what i had preferred, so, i am currently researching on how to do them myself : ) with everything it’s a bit costly but knowing that id be saving more money in the end is going to be worth it! So excited to do them myself and learn different techniques !

[@MP-ko8go]

Yeah,sure and why dont u tell your nail tech what exactly u want ?Do u think we wants like u ?Who thinks we are magic workers ?Lol we are humans

[@gabriellatorta5559]

please don't form the hard gel with your bare hands!!! always always always use gloves or tools for that - frequent bare skin exposure to uncured gel can lead to spontaneous gel allergies!! stay safe xxx

[@alexischavez3238]

As well as unwanted lifting and nails that don't last

[@midzzay]

which part is the hard gel?

[@alexischavez3238]

​@@midzzaythe clear playdough looking material she uses to shape into flowers

[@midzzay]

@@alexischavez3238 ohh ok thank you!

[@unboundbytiffany]

You mean either solid glue gel, or nonstick glue gel, or acrygel/hybrid gel? Thats not hard gel, its soak off more than likely and isnt even builder gel. Just a heads up. But agreed never ever touch gel products with bare skin, always only use nitrile gloves, always

[@briownacarbo1438]

This video helps so much I’m literally watching it and then adding the stuff I see to my Amazon cart, I’m so excited to start learning to do my own nails

I’ve watched so many nail videos and you’re the first I’ve seen do a French like that. AND ITS AWESOME!! 💅🏾💅🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

[@bellagoat-ty5qq]

how do you do it without the acetone taking off the coat of polish she first applied???

[@lizardwhispererfivehead3552]

Oh my now I AM OBSESSED !!! I can’t quit looking at your nails ! The ( well my favorite ) is the index fingernails ! But they’re all outrageous ! Simply gorgeous ! New aub And I don’t even DO nails 😂😂😂😂🫶🏻♥️😍🙌🏻🤩

Fire!!! Might just reinspire me bc I’ve just not been feeling like trying recently

That french tip trick/ idea is amazing! I am doing my nails now and I want to try that french tip trick! You made iit so easy Thank you 🥰🥰😍😍😍

[@jade.j5781]

How are you so creative with the designs? I'm not creative with stuff like that at all, you've inspired me, lol you made it look so easy but I know I'd spend one hour on one nail

[@busayoolabanji8076]

even if you may not be creative you could always search up ideas you can replicate on pintrest and it probably took way longer than the length of the video lol with pratice youll get faster and better

[@DipdbyLeesh]

Oh wow! These are amazing! If I ever venture over to gel x nails I will need to try these!

[@SelinaMattis]

You can also use a wax pen for the pearls. That’s so much easier 😌

[@marieree5096]

Yesss I neeed, I have some random gel x tip at home I wanna do my nails

[@avaloren7593]

ugh I’ve been wondering how to do those flowers thank you

[@유에Yuenail6868]

The colors and the nails are so pretty

[@keinohrtini]

Great video! They are gorgeous! I am more a press-on girl… would you say that the drilling along the cuticle and sealing it with acetone makes a difference and sense for press ons as well?

[@nailsbysion]

noo i don’t think so! press ons just uses regular nail glue so it wouldn’t rly matter in my opinion 😅

[@christineCrook-r7h]

Can you please give some tips on how to do your dominant hand as I really struggle to get accuracy with my left hand, it tends to shake a bit 😊 love the videos thank you

omg ive been looking for a at home tutorial and recently came across ur chanel and i’m in love! Luv watching ur videos 🤗☺️😊

[@tmrealphd]

I very much like your video. I have been looking for those that do gel x at home. It is too expensive to go into the salon. Of course, I am not as good as you but I hope to get better as I continue to do mine. ❤️❤️💅🏻

[@F_O_X_Y]

Girl i would so go to u to get my nails done lol. U did such a great job

[@Belovedbeauty-y9z]

I'm gonna need a 101 class that explains curing, etc. lol. Also, how do you do your non dominant hand?! So impressive and beautiful

[@LondonJohnson-od4el]

Hi I was wondering if you have any vids with using your own natural nails with regular nail polish if not you should make some 😊

[@strawarea]

these look absolutely beautiful 😍🌺

[@crazyakifan]

the part that i struggle with most is definitely the application of the nails part, it could also be the sizing but i just know this is the part which makes them fall off after a week :(

[@funsizedi88]

Do you prep your natural nails? It is a must to push cuticles back and wipe with alcohol, buff nails(180 grit file) just to take the shine off, wipe with alcohol again (or use a nail dehydrator if possible). Do this before applying the nails and then make sure the nails fit from side wall to side wall- if they are a little too big you can file the sides/cuticle-never use too small. Make sure you use a base coat and top coat before/after polish. Hope that helps!

[@monicaesquivel8841]

could you do a desk supplies tour? like necessities :)

[@Nailsbybere.91]

They came out so cute!!

[@Saysoni132]

Wow, I am from Russia and I I think it’s so beautiful 💕💓

[@laylatebau]

These are beautiful!!! But tell me, how the hell do you do it with your non-dominant hand??

[@laracannady5560]

I just wanted to make sure I understood when you said buff the nails before the peel base. You're talking about taking the shine off? Nails look great!

[@nailsbysion]

buff before dehydrator! buff before any products are used so they rly stick 💗

[@elisewarren9647]

omg they look so lovely! You are so talented! :)

[@Vickie_with_an_ie]

If you're looking for a different method of air brushing, Rebecca Ramsdale does a bunch of air brushing in her nail videos and she mentions using acrylic paints instead.

[@unboundbytiffany]

Yes this. Always this. Using gel is extremely dangerous.

[@stephanie7241]

I loved the video ❤❤ gonna start doing my own nails again. Did you list everything you used in this video? I am wanting to get the same items so I can use them 😊 Thanks keep doing videos and nails

[@abc_9870]

You convinced me to subscribe in one video, congratulations you have now a new French subscriber haha

[@nailsbysion]

no i don’t! u should put the right amount of nail glue gel so it doesn’t flood underneath the nails 😭

[@abc_9870]

@@nailsbysion Thanks for your response 💅🏻✨

[@HaydenRottenfusser]

Really love these nails, they came out beautiful. The only thing I feel is that the zebra print didn't really go with the rest of the nails, regardless of that it's a million times better than I could ever do! Just subscribe to you waiting for my stuff to come in the mail as I'm going to attempt to do my own nails wish me luck❣️

[@danapinadella1902]

nail glue

What are you spraying on your hands at 4:29, is it just water? ty~ love your videos

[@alitasbeauty1815]

Did you use jello jello peel off to glue your extension? I didn’t quite get what you use to glue them

[@tens_are_teni]

Yes she did

[@ashleycabrera7795]

They turned out so nice! What airbrush is that? 😍

[@AnAmericanGirl]

Beautiful! You are very talented. Where can I find that silicone tool? I did not see it on your Amazon storefront. I’ve been on the hunt for one of those.

[@downwiththeclique7239]

I can literally do French tips now 🤯

[@saraclark3266]

Did you use the jello jello peel off as a glue for the nail tips as well?

[@nailsbysion]

no i just used that as a base and used beetles nail glue 🥰

[@shirochan5936]

instead of the acetone please use special gels! a brand called neonail makes ready to use airbrushes filled with gel you can easily just use these! they cost around $12

[@brigettelillian]

Was it white airbrush paint that you mixed with acetone and used in the airbrush?

Where do you find the one kill oil?? Love your videos!

What is the blooming gel?? 12:45

[@xdh_core]

is gel x and gel the same process just with extensions? sorry if that's a bad question im just very confused I want to learn:)!

[@unboundbytiffany]

Gel-x is the copyrighted/patented name from apre`s. But it's used as the method where a full cover tip is adhered via gel to the natural nail as the enhancement/extension.

[@xdh_core]

@@unboundbytiffany thank you so much! That makes sense🩷

[@Gabzz247]

I love your videos!! But I always have an issue with finding a good gel x nail glue and top coat so I was wondering which one you use? 😂❤

my favorites is the beetles gel x glue and top coat

[@Gabzz247]

@@nailsbysion OMG thank you!! Your a lifesaver 💯🫶🏽🥰

[@andreacarvajal2906]

Is pushing the cuticle back enough? Or is it better to remove it? I'm pretty new to doing nails, and I was wondering. Thank you

[@GamzeKoydeniz]

love ya girll support you from turkeyy

[@cxm-r8l]

Omg!!so cute!!

[@curlygirl_code8047]

Do the gel x nails feel thin without a layer builder gel? I’ve only applied them with it and I’m scared they’ll be too thin if I don’t ❤

[@nailsbysion]

apres extensions usually are super sturdy!

[@unboundbytiffany]

Adding a layer of builder over full cover tips does nothing to help keep them on your natural nails as it's not touching your natural nail. If you want to use long full cover tips, I'd reccomend adhering them with your builder gel instead.

[@shyspeaks9238]

This is how I feel like the girlies make tutorials talking about “my first time doing my nails at home” and I be like howw??? 🤣

How long will your nails last with the jello jello peel off base? And any alternatives for the jello jello on Amazon ?

my nails usually last 1 week at least with the peel off base coat. but i just reapply it with some regular nail glue. i think any other peel off base coat could work on amazon.
