“How do two brothers get into the nail care business?” This is the single most common question people ask us. There’s a long and rocky version but we’ll give you the short one. We have our fearless and unconventional mother, Young Salo, to thank. With a single-minded entrepreneurial spirit, she decided to start her own business at the age of 49. She had a passion for the nail industry and we did everything in our power to support her. In the end, this is a family business.
Greg, the older brother, became a licensed nail technician after switching gears from fire fighter’s training. He is energy personified and has a true passion for developing the best professional nail care products and education. Habib is the younger brother. He jumped in a few years later; taking a detour from medical school and a life in music. He brings his own creative mind for business, marketing and strategy. Unexpectedly, we are a perfect team.
Today, more than 20 years later, Young Nails Inc., is a professional nail care manufacturing company exporting to over 40 countries worldwide and distributing domestically to over 3000 stores. We’re respected for our next-level product innovation and education. Our mission is to bring you the best quality products and we’ll show you how to use them with incredible results. It’s really that simple.
Welcome to the Young Nails family!

Question! Can I use the protein bond on slick pour manicures? thanks!

Nope, slickpour has it's own prep step it actually doesn't respond well to protein bond

[@jasmintorres3736]

I’m waiting for my order to come in.. What size brush do you recommend? I currently use a #10 but I feel it’s too big for me lol

[@youngnailsinc]

Size 8 is ideal for product control

[@loyaltyasmr5449]

[@ginamarie5339]

How do I handle gel extensions on a crooked nail? One of mine grows very slanted to the left; finger tip is straight, nail is not. If I look down the center of my nail, one side wall is 1/16 to 3/32 of an inch lower than the other. If I try and make it even from the center section of finger it will still slant pretty far to once side because I cannot file into the nail bed to "straighten" it.

[@youngnailsinc]

It comes down to preference. If you want to give the illusion of a straight nail you can use your knuckle as a guide and fit the form accordingly. Only trouble with that is structure so you will often have to clip off and re sculpt as you won't be able to change the fact that the finger still grows that direction.

[@kstylenbeauty]

What size brush did you use here?

[@youngnailsinc]

Greg brush is a size 12

[@3CrossMom]

What kind of acrylic & brush did you use?

[@youngnailsinc]

Greg signature series, it is a 12

[@Qu33n_Qu3]

I can't wait to get my packages in the mail the first one is due to be here on Thursday. Still waiting on the second order to be fulfilled but thats fine. I'm so anxious though its killing me.

[@youngnailsinc]

Nice, enjoy!

[@gabriellescott9147]

What color powder was used in this video?

[@youngnailsinc]

cover pink

[@karaaryana3722]

Ahhhh now I'm going to try this method. (: Quick question, I need to make a purchase, but I want to check and see if there's a flash sell coming anytime soon? If you're allowed to share that info. :p

[@youngnailsinc]

Unfortunately nothing scheduled as of now, sales are always announced on our social media pages first

[@EJ-uv9mb]

I really want to buy young nails products but I live in England... Will you be sending it to us any time soon please?

[@youngnailsinc]

You can purchase direct through @youngnailsUK all their contact info is listed at www.youngnails.com under "resources" - locate distributor"

[@curlydash4993]

What do you guys do about the monomer smell? I find it very strong I can barely breathe 😫

[@youngnailsinc]

Ours is a low odor monomer, can hardly notice it if working in a room with a window open

[@isabellacox260]

Actually I’ve heard many techs saying that the YN monomer smells stronger than most brands. I’ve had complains in my salon too, from both colleagues and customers.. Do you have any plans on making an odourless monomer?

[@claudettemonty4077]

Greg, can I do your technique with my pink gel??

[@youngnailsinc]

Of course, more videos coming daily

[@claudettemonty4077]

YoungNailsInc thanks!

[@isabellacox260]

YoungNailsInc YoungNailsInc I’m confused, how can I do the same technique with gel? I don’t understand. If I pat the gel like that(“Walk it from the top”), I would get bubbles. Can I even use the body of the brush when using a gelbrush?

[@mightyspouse4663]

Have to remember not to panic.😧😉

[@youngnailsinc]

Exactly

[@bettsyglam6462]

I like this canal, but I dont speak english 😭 but understand for the imagen ....thanks

[@kusumweb]

Same free edge in gel please.

[@youngnailsinc]

Will do

[@kusumweb]

@@youngnailsinc Waiting. Thank you. Also free edge for Client who has upturned wide fan nails.

[@ld9223]

[@ronnietoni7930]
