Sculpted polygel 3D french nail

[@allisonstrongblade906]

I like that you don't practice first. Seeing the mistakes beforehand allows DIY people like me to see what to watch out for. Keep showing us that even the pros make mistakes and have to practice. Love your videos and ig.

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

Yeah I do like to show you all the issues we encounter, that way, hopefully people don't feel down, thinking they have to get it perfect first time! there is way too much pressure on social media as it is xx

[@divineflutterbynails8231]

I love that you video yourself doing things for the first time as a fairly new nail nail tech it makes me feel that i can do it too

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

Cheryl Busch I just don’t get practice time lol so I have no choice but to just give it a go 🤣🤣

[@ScreamingGrave]

I love these trial and error videos, it is really nice to actually see it vs someone just talking about it. Nice to know other people sometimes have issues, haha.

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

oh hell yeah! I love showing you guys new things the first time I try them. xx

[@linneaburns9893]

Also thank you so much for showing us your first time trying this! I love that your so real and authentic! Even amazing nail artist have to practice which gives me hope lol

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

Oh yeah we need to practice a LOT! if anything, I feel more pressured to be more and more perfect, but I have realised that these edited images and nails that people spend endless hours creating are NOT real life as a nail tech. They have their place, but we cannot mix up salon nails, with artistic nails purely for media content. xx

[@carltongirl95]

In a word WOW Sarah that is stunning and thankyou for using polygel I've seen Acrylic versions before but you're the first that I've seen to use polygel...thankyou for sharing...hope the Uni visit went well 💜💅💜

thank you! yeah we got back this afternoon, it was absolutely AMAZING!

I love the nail I think it looks really pretty and it’s fine like you said when you’re doing something for the first time and let us watch so that we know that we’re not the only ones that struggle

[@erin8000uk]

You never get it wrong in a good way you hit it on the mark obviously I only just started going to college and yes I'm afraid I'm not all that into art but I'm looking into it closer day by day so that slowly I get near enough to be where I want to be art isn't really my strength but I see it through others well done you have my best wishes

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

Art is not my strength either love. I have to push myself to try harder each time, so that I can teach my students the best methods too, so I kinda learn by getting it wrong haha

[@karenpresley7101]

It still looks beautiful. I like those colors you chose. One of these days, I'm going to get an e-file and try acrylic. As hard as it is to file and being the person I am, it would take me days to file one acrylic nail!!! lol xxx 💖💖💖

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

Yeah it is hard to file. I used to file by hand and it really hurt lol

[@lisawood4903]

Never thought to do with polish and poly gel... brilliant!

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

yeah it works well, but I find that polygel doesn't have the clarity of the acrylic I use, so I was a bit gutted xx

You can mix the polygel with the gel polish also. Instead of painting it on the nail under the clear Polygel

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

I am not sure if that would have the same effect for the 3D French, I haven't seen it done that way. xx

It looks great! I think I'll have a go at it. I just have hard gel. No polygel. And I don't think I can function in my day to day with nails that long. So I'll have to tweak it. It has definitely become a craze so kudos to whoever originated it!🙂

[@calichef1962]

I just noticed something in the still photo right at the end: this design always looks as if it's descending from the lightest color to the darkest color. The step-down look of it goes from the tip to the nail bed, backwards from Kylea's. I can't wait until someone goes for a full rainbow in this design! That's going to make for some really cool Pride nails this summer!

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

that's weird... I cant see it like that lol

[@calichef1962]

@@NailsbySarahBurchett And I can't see it the other way, even when I un-focus my eyes like I would for one of those Magic Eye images. But I can imagine that some lucky folks get to see it both ways.

Hey Melissa! Yeah I want to try it again too xx

[@Oonagh72]

This is the first time I have seen this with polygel and gel polish. It is a smart move. Looks faster. Also because clear polygel can be a little frosty it is perfect for the shadowy effect. I like it a lot. Next time try bringing the clear past the color. Then filing and going into the next color. See if that creates even more shadow. 👍🏾

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

I actually got quite frustrated at the frosted look, I wanted pure clarity :( Hopefully it will come out better with acrylic, but who knows haha

[@dallasgarcia5872]

First of all I would like to say, you are a great nail tech, very down to earth. A question, is the clear polygel causing the grainy look? I have never seen a polygel look like that, but I haven't tried Madam glam yet...it is still beautiful 😁

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

Dallas Garcia the clear polygel definitely has a grainy look which did frustrate me. I might try it with hard gel or acrylic x

Hannah Arango yeah it’s a great idea! Xx

[@shanarablue339]

Iam gona ask which maybe a silly question, if using gel polish, can't you paint your lines and cure each then put the gel on top at one go? Iam guessing there's a reason ? Love this , simple yet beautiful x

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

unfortunately not lovely. You need badge colour to have a cured top layer, so you can paint the next colour right up the wall of it. If I just paint the colours and then cap them, it will simply look like painted colours and not that cool step up effect. xx

I found something cool about real polygel If you apply a thin layer of builder gel just a tiny tiny layer on your natural nail it sticks on there forever they don’t pop off but that’s real polygel so I’m not sure about the knock off brand

[@NailsbySarahBurchett]

Queen_Of_Rockers Rocks well considering they are all the same chemicals, it should wrk the same. Then again, polygel comes with its own base coat that should be used. They won’t pop off.

I actually went back and listened to the whole thing, because I was worried that it may have sounded dishonest as you put it. But I didn’t even say what you said!
