Nail tech doing her own DIY mani (short natural nails)

[@ACCEPTBLESSINGS]

Anna, I am so thrilled you've finally made the decision to sell your nail salve. It's the best thing ever and to prove my obsession, I bought my partner his own nail kit so I could keep the free nail salve since I ran out of my first one from when I bought my own nail kit. I am so excited to regularly purchase the salve and I am just so grateful for you!

[@ingevanherzele4990]

Please never stop making these video's 🙏 I enjoy them sooooooo much😍 Thank you Anna❤❤

[@TheSalonLife]

Thank you so much!! I actually really enjoy making these :))

[@carolineletellierdest-just8623]

I absolutely love the meticulous way you do a mani; they end up perfect and it’s great to watch a nail artist for us!

[@patriciaperfect2627]

Anna, thank you for this latest video, I received my kit from you about a week ago, my nails have already improved, the free gift of the solve is brilliant. I will be needing more to put at each of my basins at home when washing my hands it really has made a huge difference. The price of the kit has already paid for itself as I have managed to do my own mani/pedi when I would usually have gone to the salon. Great work looking forward to your next video. Kind regards from Norfolk UK.

[@Алла-б7л7е]

Anna, love your channel, great news about your manicure kit! Swatches with Mister Salon Life's nails are the key channel's videos) don't stop, best wishes! Also like your advices for the nails and your own manicure videos

[@zubryta]

Cannot wait for the diamond file to be back, so that I can order it together with the kit 🥹

[@latonyajackson4295]

I learn something new each and every time I watch you do a manicure. So many tips in such a conversational way.

[@PurpleSheRa]

I think you have gorgeous shaped nails/nail beds, even short have such natural beauty. Loving your at home mani/pedi tutorials. My kit should be arriving in a week or so, yay! I think I'm most excited to try your Salve. Thanks Anna, you're amazing. 💅💜💜💜

[@vic_81]

Bluecross is the best cutical remover I have ever had! Thank you so much for that recommendation, Anna ❤

[@annearaullo2917]

Thanks for this straightforward video. Your demonstrations have helped me improve my nail filing and shaping techniques.

[@lorrainemacgregor9781]

Love your home manicure/pedicure videos Anna. Excited to use my nail kit tools tomorrow❤

[@dianneporter542]

You have beautiful nails! Thanks for sharing another manicure.

[@TheSalonLife]

Thank you! 😊

[@ruthtorphy2204]

Glad to know short nails are ok. On first onset of stress😊 tend to pick at my nails.

[@TheSalonLife]

Same. So knowing this I try to be ahead of the game and have nothing to pick :)

[@JenJenCoco]

I LOVE blue cross. I am so happy i found it through you. One day i hope to buy your kit.

[@YamIa3gypsy]

Thank you for showing this manicure with items from your kit. The files and buffer are amazing. I love the thinner but more effective file. The salve is really remarkable. Nothing on the market compares. Wishing you much success. I will be looking forward to purchasing as gifts. Also when mine runs out. Easy to use, much easier to take with me, and the texture is perfect. On another note, I noticed that our nails and hands are very similar. ( I am half Hungarian, maybe that is why). Love and Light🌸V

[@Tatinta]

Does Anna also have Hungarian ancestors? Only asking as I am Hungarian, too. :)

[@hedy1861]

Thank you for sharing so much knowledge! The tip to oil the nails every day to prevent the income of water is so great. I also did the oiling on toenails, and it really helped me to get rid of the greatest part of my rolling nails. They are not genetic but dependent on choosing the false foodwaer for years. The oil helps to soften the nails on the toes, and the rolling is now, after a year, nearly not recognizable.

[@ucaquatics]

This is my moms and I favorite nail polish 💅! I am super pale and my mom is super tanned, it looks really good on both types of skin!

[@-MEL16-A.O.C]

I've just grab my coffee and I already enjoy 😁 Thank you besos 😉😘

[@alinarosu7944]

i think the part where you remove the cuticle is the most satisfying!

[@TheSalonLife]

It really is!

[@jonesays1353]

🕊️ I started with one of your videos a year ago. I give myself a weekly manicure and gently push skin fold usually 2x a week. I bought the glass cuticle stick and glass nail file as well as the cuticle solution into a bottle with brush on cap, you recommend, and I put a dot of oil on skin fold after most hand washings. Also your recommendation. My hands are awesome! They have never looked so good and it’s all THANKS TO YOU. 👨‍🍳💋 Regards from Indiana, USA. 🇺🇸

[@TheSalonLife]

Yay! This is fantastic to hear!! Thank you so much for writing! ❤️

[@bbysapphos]

I love these videos! I followed your advice and have been oiling my cuticles with jojoba oil regularly as well as using the kerasal cream multiple times a day (especially before bed). Even though I admittedly can't be bothered to do oil soaks often, I've seen a lot of growth and overall improvement of my nail health in the last month. They're so much more flexible but strong and I've even managed to grow my thumb nails out a little it without stress cracks on the sides which I usually have to deal with. I really bunkered down on my nail health after damaging them due to improper extension removal (I know, I know) but following your advice and suggestions has been the best decision I've made for my nail health

[@bbysapphos]

I wish I took before photos so I could show you the after!

[@karenthomas4158]

Watching you file makes me realize how weak my nails are at this moment in time. I will keep oiling and hope they improve.

[@heatherireland2810]

I always use OPI Nail Envy in Matte finish. It lasts from manicure to manicure and along with Nail Repair it’s a win win!

[@ambersamusements5257]

New to your channel. Really appreciate your no fuss style and how amazing the results are. I’ll be trying the cuticle softener for my next home mani.

[@littleleslie13]

I loved this video. I really like that base coat color. Your nails look so fresh and beautiful. I’d love to try your salve🤗

[@ejokallenavneertaget]

2 questions: can i do anything for the white part to begin further down thr fingertips. I feel like the white part on my fingers are very long but my nails are not "long" because they are not even reatching over my fingertip. Does it make sense? I saw your video on the "spreaded or "wide" nails. So got curios if i can do anything about this too. 2. Question. How long does your file from your kit last? Because Arent they suposed to be replaced? But the other stuff in the kit is not. Love your videos!

[@RevT.]

I love these videos I can follow along with your tools❤

[@karincooks]

Anna you’re the Queen of Manis 💕

[@TheSalonLife]

☺️ thank you

[@sadheart24]

I bought a Blue Cross Cuticle remover cream at Target and it’s quite thick. It works pretty well but is definitely thicker than what you have.

[@lidiacadar7682]

I absolutely love your nails and I love your channel!

[@TheSalonLife]

You just made my day! Seriously :). Thank you :))

[@oliviacraner8156]

Have a question, before you started working on yoir nails were they short and tiny, or was the nail bed longer on your finger? The reason im asking is I have tiny nails, have always had tiny nails especially since I chew my nails. I dont chew them like I used to though. I am curious though could I get my nails just like yours are as far as on the nail bed? Whenever I have let my nails grow, the nails grew out, and off the nail kind of longer. I ended up and would chew them when they would get to long off the finger, get dirt under them or a few would break. I would chew them off then the process would start all over. I have tiny fingers and would love to get my nails looking like yours especially the length of each nail on the finger itself. If that could happen im sure it is gonna take sone time to get them looking like yours or other womans nails. I also dont take care of my nails like I should either. I think thats alot of the problem.

[@NRC58]

I don’t see anything wrong with short nails? I think short nails can look so pretty with or without nail polish. I really like darker shades on shorter nails.👍🏻

[@candice44441]

I totally agree short nails are classic

[@pambassett3076]

Hi...just found your channel few days ago and after watching some of your videos I have started to take more care of my nails..thank you..x One question I do have is how do you keep your nail tips looking so white..mine are a dull colour or yellow looking.. Going to watch the feet manicure videos next. Xx

[@familyguy2698]

Ur nails r perfect 😊

[@jenniferthompson5146]

What do you know about dip powder manicures? Are they a good alternative to gel (I have an allergy)? Thanks!

[@betsypayne3197]

I love super short nails too.

[@jenniferring7739]

I find your videos so soothing and helpful. You quickly mentioned using clippers once - do you not recommend using clippers? My nails grow fast and then one of them breaks and I like to even them up with clippers. Also I LOVE the Opi product you recommended - what a game-changer!

[@TheSalonLife]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I usually file my nails weekly to maintain the length. No need for clippers. :))

[@DesertNebula]

I bought glow in dark polish 😅 Looks nice but mainly glows under uv only

[@johnrogers7590]

Hi, how do I buy your nail kit, thanks Diane

[@TheSalonLife]

Hello, in our online store here: bit.ly/3zQVrTH or www.thesalonlifeshop.com

[@beverlywatson8883]

Do you think glass nail files and cuticle pushers are better than metal or other types of emery or filing boards?

[@TheSalonLife]

No. Just a preference:) Glass files do not “seal” anything. That is just marketing

[@CorinRae]

Which side of the file is 180? I thought it was the tan/brownish side. I tried the Tweezerman Pushy, but it scratched my nail. I much prefer the Staleks pusher.

[@TheSalonLife]

The white side is 180 and the gold is 240. The gold feels more coarse no? Good example of the fact how the grit is not the only thing that dictates how the file feels but also the material the file is made of. The white side is coated with zinc sterate powder. This provides softer feel to the surface. It just feels different.

[@CorinRae]

@@TheSalonLife Interesting! Yes, I do think the gold side feels more coarse. I usually use that side for shortening and the white side for more detailed shaping.

[@pamoverstreet2085]

What is the best grit for an emery board for natural nails?

[@TheSalonLife]

Depending on the nails. Thicker nails lower grit like 150 or 180 and for normal nails 240. Then as you see I go over the edges with 280 sponge file.

[@lisapierce525]

Love this video! Will the salve be available in the US?

[@TheSalonLife]

We certainly ship to the US :))

[@lisapierce525]

@@TheSalonLife thank you so much. Looking forward to trying your salve. With you as the maker, I know it’s a winner!

[@MaalRuu]

Pilniczki są bardzo fajne w użyciu i bardzo skuteczne. Nie sądziłam, że tego rodzaju pilnik może dać tak dobre efekty. To, że są giętkie, czasami nieco przeszkadza, bo pilnik wymyka się z linii piłowania, ale z kolei gdyby były twardsze, to może nie wchodziłyby z taką łatwością w każdy zaułek paznokcia? 🙂

[@TheSalonLife]

OMG, as Im paying another installment for this process, this just made my day!!

[@Mooky941]

I had been using OPI for about 6 months, to no effect. My nails were still peeling, super soft. Even though I was doing oil soaks, not using nail polish and making sure to use jojoba oil and moisturiser each time I washed my hands, it just wasn't really doing enough. My nails were still soft and peeling each time I would try to file them. It would peel right back to the nail bed and looked like I had been biting my nails. Was awful. Then I decided to switch things up and try CND RescueRxx.. The change has been incredible. It's been just over a month now, and I have done 2 manicures in that time (time constraints, no time to do them each week). No peeling except for a tiny amount on one nail which was the worst initially, but it is nowhere near as bad as before. Now my nails are firmer, have some flex if I try to bend them, but they aren't soft like they had been before. I keep them short regardless, but they look and feel much healthier now. I don't know what's happened to OPI. It used to be good, but the last bottle I bought, It just did nothing at all.

Patiently waited until Sunday to watch this video during my weekly manicure! Such a treat, as always. :-)
