Amen for you showing how to remove them. Note to people new to doing gel extensions, do NOT rip them off intentionally-it will ruin your nails. You need to do it properly and soak off, so thank you for SHOWING THIS!!!! ❤

[@helenauch6455]

You can get rid of the "sticky" between coats with some rubbing alcohol. I recently learned this and it is amazing. Paint, cure, remove sticky, repeat. :)

[@claire4212]

Does that also take off the gel coat?

[@Jenna-mr3us]

@@claire4212nope! Just don’t soak your nail, wipe it and then it’ll air dry quickly so you can do the next coat

[@lillyjaneofficial]

Girl I’m 13 and you gave me the confidence to start doing gel x ❤❤❤

[@pshtwhoneedsaname]

I love love love this design, the rhinestone hearts are so cute. This video is also a very nice showreel for the ring 💍💍

[@KianaBonollo]

Thank you! 🤗

[@Grace-vy7tl]

i just saw your shorts and went to see if you had a more in depth tutorial. this is EXACTLY what i needed. thank you!!!

[@lizpatino7836]

Omg! That's gorgeous! I want my nails just like yours. I went to get my first gel x today at the nail shop, but I was pay attention to how she did it and I found your video I'm like I'm gonna do this!

[@KianaBonollo]

All the nail products I used can be found here: www.amazon.com/shop/kianabonollo

[@juliannavarno5431]

Can I do gel X without a drill??

[@siemrengokoel]

ordering rn, and let's talk about the makeup cause its a slay

[@KianaBonollo]

aw thank you so much :))) and good luck with your nails!!

[@leiarosex3390]

Gorgeous as always - also on your curing lamp, it still has a blue protective film on. Super satisfying to peel off 😂❤❤

[@Dessesita]

You can also use “nail prep” by aprés for the the inside of the gel x nail . & if you end up with a more sculpted nail extension pack you should put a layer of gel on your natural nail as well before adding the nail extension 😊

[@chewar7537]

Love this video, and thank you for no music!!! I won't watch channels that have it. Love the tips, and your nails. May try these.

[@FunnyFaye]

Love this video!!!! I’m gunna go do my nails now💅

[@swiftiegirl_13_]

these are so cute! i also do gel extensions so i’m glad to see others saving money and doing their nails at home too🫶

[@KianaBonollo]

yes I can NOT believe how much money I have saved... literally thousands

[@zeinaelarja]

I was impatiently waiting for this specific video, woohooo🥳

[@KianaBonollo]

Yay!!! Glad it’s out now!!

[@sahirisalvucci7647]

Love this video!!!! I really enjoy your nail content even tho' it's not your main one, i'm all new in this Gel-X nail World, hahahah, and i'm using your amazon storefront as my guide, hope see more content like this on your IG and here. Thnks for the video. ❤

[@erikamarco3837]

Beautiful, i love the heart ♥ ringstones, but i dont recommend put on them top coat, try to put the top coat surrounding them, they'll be more shiny 😊

[@jsransom]

although this is true, it’ll be harder for the top coat to stay on if she doesn’t

[@aesthet1cxlol419]

OMG SLAY! I AM FOR SURE GOING TO USE THIS METHOD TO DO MY NAILS! (also how long did they stay?)

[@karinadulat]

Girl is there anything you can't do😅

[@KianaBonollo]

🥹🥹

[@pwhite2579]

rotary tools used with drill : burr ! drill bits cut holes and drills turn the tools. NICE NAILS!

[@looool8250]

you are so talented!

[@vivtzka]

Awesome tutorial! But you should wear gloves or sunscreen when using a UV lamp!

[@adultingdiariess]

I can smell this video and I love it.😆

[@qp81108]

I needed this so much! If you got gel x extensions that were plastic would it be harder to remove? I feel like you could just pop it off rather than removing it with the tool?! Idk hahah 💅

[@KianaBonollo]

It just wouldn’t be the same! The gel works with the gel extension nail- you have to use them together

[@amymello7481]

So PRETTY!!! Do you use sunscreen around your nails? There was a study (finally) that showed the uv nail devices kills cells and damages dna. The Dr. that did the study swore the uv devices off completely but if they are used she said “Apply broad spectrum sunblock that contains zinc and titanium around the nails, and wear UV gloves with the fingertips cut off when it is time to cure your nails,”

[@jesshudson3208]

questions. can you paint the nails before applying? or will the gel not cure properly?

[@LilMissBookLuvr]

Did you cure the black polish before you put on the rhinestone glue??

[@Finley.Vad.]

yes

[@piperfriedland99]

can you please tell me what you use to clean the gel polish off your nail art brushes? nobody ever shows it in their video 😭

[@Kithequeen]

Well I love how our names are pronounced the same mines just a rare spelling

[@abikyy]

how long do u flash cure for when adding extensions?

[@dianagabriela3287]

which extensions are these? That are already pre-etched. I checked your Amazon storefront but there are a few there and I can't tell exactly which ones these are

[@ashleeks]

no because back when i was just starting to do my own nails i didn’t have a cuticle clipper yet and used a toe clipper as well LMAOOO

[@ga7741]

Have you ever dealt with painful nails after applying gel? I used the beetles starter kit and I'm not sure what I did wrong but my nails are in so much pain!

[@lilyfraser9983]

are you allergic?

[@sj8240]

What is the brand you use for glue?

[@hopeking37]

Oof alot of work , I want to do but I have two kids at home so def not safe wish it was one step lol

[@veronicamarie5662]

I have 3 at home and pregnant. So I get it, but I still manage to find time every once in a while.

[@Jennyyyyy333]

my only issue with gel x nails is them popping off after a day ugh :(

[@KianaBonollo]

you should try trouble shooting- maybe your nails aren’t rough enough, maybe they aren’t prepped right etc… done right they should last at least two weeks!

[@_heyyvirgoloveee]
