“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!

Literally the best teacher online! I’ve learned so much from Greg and believe me I’m watching everything there is to watch about nails. So sad you don’t deliver your products to Europe 🙌🏼

[@aaccoo2436]

The top coat tip is genius. I tend to flood my cuticles and side walls. I can't wait to try this technique

[@youngnailsinc]

Let us know if it works out for you!!

[@thedescendingangeldancer]

I can't tell you how much I appreciate all of the YN videos! I love that I have these to help me practice at home until the pandemic gets under control, and I can go to school. Thank you!

[@jenniferbryan295]

I'm in Alabama, and back at work. I'm a 30 year veteran. Lost several of my clientele during shut down. Had to market myself out there for the first time. I have added Slickpour to my services. Love marketing the fact that you dont dip in the powder. The Caption Conversion makes it so easy!! That's what sold me!!

[@youngnailsinc]

Love it that's a great way to change things up and sanitation is even more important now than ever!! Thank you for using our products too!

[@donnastokes-manning6175]

On the first coat I was loving that turquoise…. But THEN you did that 2nd coat and that purple got me!

[@nelidasotelo3067]

THANK YOU!!! I have been struggling with conversion & dark dip powders for 3 years. I called but was advised to cure two mins instead of one. As you just said, that doesn’t work. Never dreamed of doing it this way but I am trying it out today! Your eagerness to help with education & techniques is why I will ALWAYS carry Young Nails products in my salon. Thanks again!!

I must say , you take very well care of your own nails and it’s nice to see that you do. I’ve seen some nail techs with the most poor conditioned nails. Thank you for your videos , they are so educational. Each video I learn new stuff . I’m going to have a bad head ache my brain can’t keep up lol

[@irenafidalgo7298]

Fantastic tutorial! Thank you.

[@trixie66NOLA]

You are an amazing nail artist. I have been a licensed nail tech since 1999 and never worked in the industry because I learned literally nothing on the practical side. After watching you for years, I have learned so much and hope I may enter the industry to make some money.

[@veronicah1451]

I loved this !!!thank you🤗💅

[@tishajohnson900]

Greg is the absolute best! I need these powders because I suck at polishing my non dominant hand!

[@karenmartin4285]

thanks for the video, I took advantage of the sale at thanksgiving and bought all the mystery kits where I got the maniq polish and the slick pour, it has literally been sitting and I didn't know what to do with it. Now I wish I had bought more slick pour when you had the big sale on all the colors. I can now practice using this stuff that I never would have otherwise purchased. That's what I love about the mystery kits, it's cheap enough to try products you would not ordinarily try. I love having other options to choose from and appreciate all the training that you provide, that is why I purchase Young Nails products, cause you train!

[@youngnailsinc]

Oh thank you so much for trying our products!! You can do so much with SlickPour use it as a powder coat, with monomer, etc, definitely give a try! So many colors available too!

[@jasmineplaydough]

[@what-it-doboyce4953]

OMG THIS IS SICK LOVE IT

[@Baldhead_DivaNailz]

super helpful. Had to come and watch how to use slick pour since it was in the mystery box. I love that i dont have to use resin with it. i stopped using dip powders because the smell of resin gave me migraines and a bad case of dip flu everytime i used it

[@helenosullivan3513]

Totally amazing 🥰

[@youngnailsinc]

❤️💖

[@gms2606]

Great video. Thank you.

[@CherryBlossomNailArt]

Learnt new way to apply top coat 😊🙏thanks

[@youngnailsinc]

You're so welcome!

[@sandiwilliams8191]

That 3 day course would be awesome..:)

[@cmayo5659]

Ok, I don't know how I missed this conversion for slick pour! Does this mean Conversion replaces the multiple liquids for the dip type application? Will you have any slick pour kits that include the conversion base and top? Nice!

[@jenniferbryan295]

Great video!!

[@youngnailsinc]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@reginaclepper4943]

On my bucket list is to have Greg do my difficult nails, I'm the lady with Raynauds Syndrome, lol

[@mariatrombley8630]

Thank you so much taking the time to make this video and really going into detail showing and explaining your process to create the perfect nail!! This is why yn is the BEST!!!! I really enjoyed this tutorial!! I have one quick question.. When will you be getting the mission control gel paint kits in stock again? I’ve been trying to swoop the kit since the tutorial on them and no luck....yet😉 I just placed an order last week for some awesome stuff and I am so so so excited to get them!!! Keep up the fabulous work guys!!

[@youngnailsinc]

So glad you liked it more tutorials to come! Thank you for trying our products! They should be available now on our site: www.youngnails.com/mission-control-gel-paint-kit/

[@stacyorick8764]

Conversion is my favorite way to do a gel manicure.

[@micheleknox1880]

I’d love a step by step list on the slick pour portion of this video, is that possible? I LOVE this video, this is the first time I’ve watch a video multiple times in a row.

[@cmayo5659]

Wow! Thanks, this is great, this is one of those videos that I will watch over & over, so informative! Hey, is there rose petals in your cuticle oil???? My cuticle oil doesn't have any rose petals 😢

[@kikitsoukala8843]

Thank you Greg you're the best teacher! I would like to ask a question if possible. Is there an expire date for acrylic powders like polish gels? Thanks again ! 😘

[@zoeimlay260]

Yes you will see it on the back of the bottles

[@robirobi9180]

Thanks teacher

[@CosyFluffClaire]

Hi, thank you so much for all the videos, I have learnt so much. Whilst I am building up my slickpour collection, would I be able to use up my other dip powder from other brands with the caption conversion base? I had bought a few before discovering slickpour and would rather use them up than waste them. Thanks so much I am binge watching everything! :)

[@JustMe-wg7xg]

I just ordered some items from you guys I think you guys are the best I hope to have more interactions with you all and when will you guys be having the OWC again I’m looking forward to coming but I must plan accordingly how will we know when you guys have a class

[@Janel49688]

Can you guys do a video with a fill for the slick pour foundation?

[@jessicamarie302]

I need that class lol

[@SheniceSays214]

Thanks for the tip-of doing two fingers at a time.

[@nikky5626]

Hi Greg. I love the slick pour system but I have trouble with glitters application. Would using the same technique of the powder coat help? I feel like I can’t get full coverage with them. I want to thank you for putting up this tutorial.

[@4evercurliegurlie]

"Bromance, my favorite" LOL

[@jodiewagner9226]

Can you fill the slick pour if using the same color, or is it necessary to remove all color and reapply with each service? Thanks and crushing it as always!

[@Jackelyn__K]

Would I be able to use regular nail polish with the system you just showed us with the conversion and slick pour instead of gel polish?

[@lyndysimpson1272]

Hi Greg thank you so much for this video it is so helpful. could you please show us how to remove the product. what do you recommend the best way to remove gel polish and slickpour. I dont really know what to do once i remove color and i have clear. Thank u

[@micheleknox1880]

File it off

[@deborahmckinley9244]

Hi Greg, love your tutorials...I have a question. Client comes in for a re-polish in 2-3 weeks. I have slick pour then the gel polish on top. She would like a different colour. I remove the polish do I need to apply another layer of slick pour then gel polish? Can you do a tutorial on this or is there one already and I just haven’t seen it. Thanks for all you do!

[@rhondaarmstrong6790]

Great video! Make sure you do your wife nails perfect because women always ask who do your nails! Lol! You are the king of nails!

[@youngnailsinc]

Thank you, haha that's a great suggestion!

[@FREAKOUT123ism]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@galush75]

Thank you for the informative video! Can you do a fill with dip gel ? Or do we have to take it all down and start over every time?

[@youngnailsinc]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZicmKedidina5Y

[@indin1718]

No matter how much I tried I always get polish on my cuticle :)

[@courtneyjackson2366]

If it isn't a dark color, should you cure the base conversion before pouring still?

[@RussellFerro]

I am transitioning to your YN line, but have many SNS dip powders. Is there a way I can integrate some of them with your system so I can use them up?

[@amberrhoades4247]

I'm VERY interested in your products so I plan on placing an order soon. Q: can "slick pour" be used with monomer as an acrylic enhancement? (i understand that it must be used w/tips to do an enhancement vs sculpting on a nail form BUT unsure if i can use it w/monomer OR it can only be used in the manner shown in this video)

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes you can definitely use our SlickPour line with monomer!

[@aliciahuddleston3971]

I love Gel Polish but removing it is so time consuming and messy that I have appreciated Nail Polish so much more. Plus with my own experimenting I found I can put a Gel Top Coat once the Nail Polish is fully filly fully dry.

[@wilddolphinlover]

How do you keep the nails in the hand so you can work on it the way you do? Do you glue it on or how do you get the nail to stay?

[@kaypryor703]

That blue gel polish is beautiful. What color is it? Thanks.

[@CardiM97]

I have a couple of slick pours and they don’t look like the one in the video I kinda like how these look is this an old jars ?

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes this is our old logo.

[@HaH3nry]

What kind of light do you use, to see, while you work? I'm always worried that product will cure with certain light bulbs.

[@jn4030]

If you use the e-file to take off the color layer down to the base, should we assume that you already know how to “shape” with the e-file? To elaborate, when you e-file down the color, the surface with the base will be uneven... would you just leave the surface as is and simply rebuild on top of the base or would you shape the base with a buffer, fill in the growth, and then rebuild/repolish/repour?

[@erikadiaz5580]

Are all that powders and nail polish available in your online shopping? I cant find them on there.
