How to: Infill Without Flooding the Cuticle!!

[@dianacason7259]

I love you!!!!! Your so funny but yet so talented, I'm a nail tech for 32 years, even now, I'm still in love with doing nails. Watching you inspires me so much!!!!

[@cellla7652]

You are a great teacher. I went to school years ago and they never showed me the things I have learned from you. Thanks for sharing your skills.

[@mollydooke]

My teachers never once told me to hold the nails pointed down. I always have trouble with flooding the cuticle even though I use small beads and now I know why. I always tilt the nails up or hold them flat.

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

We are so glad that you found this video helpful! :)

[@luluangeles2902]

Me too!

[@jazzyluv8404]

Same here. And I'm new at the nail technician business! I cant believe we didnt learn it, but I'm glad we have amazing technicians that help us new ones! I appreciate everything they do for us! 💜💜

[@Eyeshaveit]

I used to do nails years ago.. And I always had trouble with lifting and didn’t know why... It drove me nuts! Now I know why and it makes sense..

[@suelawson3042]

I am a newly to all things nail related and have learnt so much watching your videos. Thanks for being so down to earth and keeping things simple and straightforward. Back to practising.

[@nailcessitybyre254]

I know this video is from 3 years ago but Christy I absolutely love your personality!!!!

[@MelissaSue1998]

Let me tell you that these nails are gorgeous and experience has made you an awesome artist girl

[@christybennett8095]

I have taught myself to do acrylic nails all by watching your great videos it seems like everytime i start have a problem with something you post a new video telling me what im doing wrong! lol Love your channel and all your videos too you seem like such an amazing person with such a fun personality! I'd love to meet you someday!

[@ElizabethCxo]

Omg so happy here🤗😁😁 I lost my job due to Covid-19 and between doing my nails at the salon and watching your video about 10 times, I am feeling confident in doing my fill at home until I find a job,,,,,thank you sooooo much for explaining with such precision ,,,,,🤗💞😁👍💥💯 I am ready to take on the challenge😂 DO NOT FLOOD!!😡🤪😜

[@She_is_Marcii]

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

Keep practising and you will get better, I promise!💅😊

[@bevsartsandcrafts715]

That's the exact reason for my lifting issue! Far too much at the cuticle. You're such a good teacher. I'm saving the vids I need to a playlist I can refer to when I do my own nails xx

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

So happy to see that people find our videos helpful! x

[@leannes1083]

I've done that with nearly all kirstys videos that I've watched! And cos Adam always puts bloopers or funny bits at the end, I'll watch them over and over. Case in point "tiger" wave......watch out any 🏄🏼‍♀️🏄🏼‍♀️ lol

[@jocelynbeavan]

You make the most epic nail designs I have ever seen!!!! Thank you for sharing your passion to all watching your channel!

[@ivykat9009]

Wow! You're so talented with nails! My clients just love what I've learned from you! Thanks for all the help! Live for your videos!❤️

[@kgirl1019]

you are a wonderful teacher, in addition to a great artist. I've started learning acrylic nails at 56! It just fascinates me. I hope I can be just a small amount as good as you. You're inspiring. THank you for all the great advice you share!!

[@seniacordova4098]

I’m honestly learning sooooo much from watching your videos. I thank you so much!!!!!! For taking time out of your day and do these videos.

[@MB-lk1hg]

[@Tazbocat]

[@shesheshe22]

I came for the nails, but stayed for the accent!

[@wildfire2108]

Yaasssss

[@cstottie5036]

I’ve only had one nail tech in America who has not cut me or given me a lumpy mani; ur videos have inspired me to do what I’m interested in and my supplies will arrive tomorrow and I’m gonna get my Liscense so people don’t have to save money like me to get a expensive mani and have to be disappointed like me ❤️ you inspired me to make a difference thanks

[@katzloversx3]

Thank you , thank you , thank you , now I know what I've been doing or not doing to get my nails to look right . Something so simple makes all the difference THANK YOU ! I don't know why I never caught onto this lovely tip .

[@tancalex]

The ending is so good. 🐅🌊

[@JustMe-zg7qo]

This is the best most informative video of 2017! Seriously. Everything you said was on point! I tried to do my own nails and IT LIFTED AND I PICKED AT IT JUST LIKE YOU SAID! You need the KZbin play button for this video!

[@davinaanderson1692]

Gotta Love you .I like the way you tell it how it is. Love your teaching so simple and to the point.

[@nelcabby2814]

I like that her as a nail tech helps ppl she dnt even know i've watch this video and honestly its helpn

[@bevsartsandcrafts715]

"Just smack em" 😂😂😂

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

😂

[@mimifranzosin]

The place I used to go they'd actually tap (not nicely) my fingers with the file everytime it wasn't relaxed 😂 (which it obv wasn't because my nailed was getting hot af) 😂

[@natalyargueta4522]

My fav part lol

[@hannahaf7789]

I just bought some acrylic powder from your website. I'm in love!!! Best product I've ever used!!! Great coverage x

[@kjersey6781]

You are the best and the baddest nail tech I have ever seen. Thank you so much for sharing and teaching.

[@pokelana543]

So that's why my nail guy smacks my hand and yanks my finger down 😭

[@ms.trudylea5576]

You are awesome!. I'm no nail specialist but your explanation of flooding nailbed is so helpful. I love getting my nails done and I noticed they flood my nailbed every time, they don't tip my finger down and I get a reaction of dryness and swelling. Thank you for your expertise! Love your tutorials!

[@rainebowluv]

This is the best vid I have seen that shows and explains that process. THANKS FOR SHARING!

[@NailsIvette]

Mil gracias aprendí mucho con la traducción del video🥰🥰🥰

[@kellymccarron8913]

I am sooooo struggling with this at the moment. Ive almost finished my qualification but I'm always over flooding the cuticle and sidewalls. I'll definitely try this technique!! Love your work btw!

[@noelr5321]

Es primer vídeo que veo con traducción al español, que bueno!!! Lo que estábamos esperando.. mil gracias!!! 🌷

[@tishaturley9212]

I just love your work!!!! I literally binge watch all you videos!!! And you have taught me lots of tricks and ways to beautiful nails!!! I'm self taught and for anything I want to know I always go to your videos!!! Thank you sooooo much!!!!

[@heatherhodgson5576]

I just started doing my own nails and I keep getting so frustrated with flooding my cuticles! Now after watching this video I’m gonna do some practice beading as well as always keeping my nails slanted down! Thank you so much for having made this video! You’ve probably just saved my sanity 😂

[@lorettathompson8794]

you are amaing! I've learned more from your videos than i ever did in school.

[@cherry817]

You're the most helpful video I've watched and I wish I watched you 30 minutes ago when I did my nails. I flooded my cuticle so bad I don't know what to do cuz I don't have pure acetone to get it off so I'm just going to hope that nothing too bad will happen and if it starts to affect me I'll go to the salon and get it removed. THANK YOU

[@zantrellrobinson]

I’ve learned so much from this channel. That I didn’t learn in nail school. KZbin taught a lot of my classmates. It’s crazy we spent so much money for school to learn more outside of it.

[@IzzyP5529]

Love your work.. have learned so much just by watching your videos!! Much love from Kodiak Alaska

[@antandsie]

Hi Kirsty, I'm near your neck of the woods just outside Stoke-on-Trent. All your work is amazing. Love watching your videos and always purchase my products from Naio Nails. I've only been doing nails for the last 2 years and am always learning. Your video proves bad habits set in at any time. Thank you for helping me and everyone else correct our mistakes. 💋

[@kellywilliams6767]

Kristy you are without a doubt my favorite nail educator on KZbin. you are such a wonderfully talented artist and I love how you are always teaching us how to be better. thanks so much for all your help!!!!! Watch out for 🐯👋's....lol

[@sillyme8342]

I just love you! you're positively adorable and your videos make something that seemed so complicated...totally doable!! Thank you for your help!

[@sabrelovette4731]

Yessss!!!! Solved alllll my nails issues. I do nails on myself and this helped a bunch! THANKS GIRLY!

[@mollythorpe6307]

The nail angle thing is really very helpful!! Thank you so so much!

[@Nappy2BeMe]

[@HoneyBadger-hg4pp]

[@rightupyourali4029]

[@jazzyluv8404]

I love u so much naio nails! I always come back to ur videos! Even ur older ones lol. U teach me so much as a new nail tech and I'm thankful that u are here to help with these problems! Again I love u and your videos! Your the best💜💜💜

[@kyratompsett4409]

It took me years to stop myself from picking at just my nail polish. Even if it was fresh and had absolutely no ridges, I still scraped and peeled at them. I finally got out of it, but picking at acrylic ridges is far too tempting. This video definitely helped with my application, reducing the actual things I want to pick at. Thanks :)

[@emmacowley5475]

thank you for the videos you do I'm doing a nail course in September I do my own nails I've learnt loads watching your videos thank you Emma x

[@tracyrolltide8804]

Thank you for this lesson. I have been practicing the beads and you are so right about the bead application. Please keep up teaching the techniques💕💕 you are such a blessing💕

[@pattywilson6497]

Love the basic teaching videos! They really help!

[@winnieoldham4319]

Omg that nail was beautiful!! 😍

[@elizabethgoertz635]

I'm starting a manicuring class next week and I really hope they teach me this kind of stuff because it's super useful

[@moztan7638]

I just try this and it made a big difference!! So perfect! Thank you so much!☺️☺️☺️☺️🙏

[@morganrichards2502]

[@lizbethmillan4869]

I love you woman!!! 😘 And I like your sense of humor!! 😆👏

[@PLow27]

I absolutely adore your work Kirsty🙂😍

[@bellavvgrwm]

When she said she doesn't know one person who doesn't pick at lifting I looked at my thumb which I had just picked at lol

[@leannes1083]

No, when she said that I nearly shouted "me, me! I don't pick at them!" at the screen. But I bit my nails 🤦🏼‍♀️til I was 16, so I've spent the last 20 years trying to keep them nice! I taught myself gel, and kirsty has taught me acrylic (though I do still get the odd frustrating issue every now and then!) My friend's nail tech daughter used to do her nails, until she asked me to try doing them, (eek was I nervous!) now she won't let anyone else do them, so I'm thinking about doing a proper course now, just not sure what course would be best. Kirsty is sooo booked up every time I look!😩😩😩

[@heatherlokeman2036]

I love your videos I have seen just about all of them and I have spent so much money doing all kinds of new things this last couple of weeks because of how amazing and educating your videos are! And of course you are just so easy to watch not boring and annoying! Lol I would literally love to come work with you I have been doing acrylic since I was 14 years old lol but I have always had a prob with flooding but I never tipped the finger!!!! So today I will be doing that! Lol I really do appreciate your videos 🖤 I just wish I had more peoe to practice on so I don’t have to keep changing my nails every two days! Also, have you ever done a video on extending week old gel nails?! I have weak weak nails and since I keep changing then every couple of days to do new stuff I decided today I will just shorten my gel nails and shape them like my reg short nails and the. Extending...hoping to save me more product and time lol we will see how that goes! I’d love to see you do it as I know you will perfect it!

[@GypsyTarot]

Wow Kirsty! That is pure perfection! Thank you so much for showing me....me the right way from the start so I don't have to learn the hard way. I'm doing really well in my course thanks to you and your videos. xxxxxxxx At my age I haven't got bloody time to learn the hard way LOL ;)

[@AGMCDR11]

[@mickimann1979]

You make it look so easy! Love watching your videos

[@robloxfan9272]

Hey Kirsty, can I ask what brush you use, I’m struggling to find one that I love, thanks xxx

[@rickaylachevannes2451]

Love her personality ...omg wish she could teach me all she knows..i live in Jamaica

[@Sonia1504]

Loved that! When you say making nail flush I'd love to see more of an explanation in a video. I find its either too thick or I remove it altogether? x

[@jacquelinedimattia774]

Thanks Kristy...I'm learning so much from you! 💋

[@shannonc9648]

Wauw! The nails are soooo thin! Love it

[@karolwebster823]

kirsty I think I need one of those smacks 😁😁 im learning how to pick up bead ratio correctly and I hold my nail flat so I can see it because I can't see the cuticle to know how close I am. Will have to try this your way, I'm slow in so slow getting this ratio right it's frustrating I'm not surr how much pressure I should be using when I wipe brush on the dampen dish and if I'm supposed to just leave the tip wet, iv tried all ways but I won't give up your my inspiration, I love your sense of humour can have a good laff as well as learn, thankyou BTW I love your hair colours

[@gabrielaperez-balcanu3996]

[@BajaRosie]

can kirsty show us how to infill a gel edge nail, or are they meant to be taken off at every fill? where i live in canada acrylic nails are out of fashion, its all gel, so whenever possibly it is so appreciated to see when kirsty also does the nails in gel aswell as acrylic thanks!!

[@Khloe_dancer_model]

Good question, I want to know too!

[@ethelconcepcion6221]

thank you so much for all your tips on nails thank you so so much ..I'm always hunt your video thank you kirsty for sharing your talent God bless you for all your help

[@TaraConti]

I just found you a couple days ago & I've learned sooooo much from you in just a few hours! I wish you were in New England! I've done my nails myself since I was a teenager on and off (basically it depends on how broke I am at the time LOL) Over the years I've gotten really bored with doing my own nails & I've pretty much done every color but you've definitely inspired me to try some new things! I'm not sure if you have a video but I'm wondering if you're not ambidextrous how do you do your dominant hand with your non-dominant hand? That's always been the biggest problem I have I'm somewhat ambidextrous but not enough. My left hand comes out great but my right hand not so much... Either way I LOVE your videos and thank you for putting it out there!!!

[@monicasailo3217]

Absolutely worth watching 👍

[@shayburton4915]

Thank you! This video is a God send! This is a big issue for me as I am starting to do my own nails! Again thank you! Well detailed, easy to follow! ❤❤❤ HAD TO SUBSCRIBE

[@TheMommaof2babygirls]

Love your videos.... I have learned so much watching you. You make it very easy to understand how to do what you do in the videos and I love that.. Because Lord knows I have to pause and rewind and pause and rewind lol not with your videos though :-) Thank you and please keep them coming!
