Full Set Challenge

[@julietedwards-lewis4226]

I am just getting over stage 4 terminal cancer and need to live big. So I have decided to learn the art of acrylic nails in a big way. You are so awesome in your tutorials. You are just you and I love it.

[@lisbetfernandez5556]

Geegtutorials its faster and great!!!!!

[@pambaumgartner526]

Juliet Edwards-Lewis I was diagnosed with cancer in April and I too have decided to learn nail art. I don’t know yet if I’ll go to nail school as I am 63 and retired but I’ve learned enough thru videos that I have started doing my own acrylics. God bless and good luck to you.

[@Msrosy145]

Juliet Edwards-Lewis me too 👍🏽💞💖 good luck 😬 and congrats. I’m 74 😘 age is a only a number after what we’ve conquered lol I had breast cancer in 2016. And pleomorphic liposarcoma in my ankle stage 4 on Achilles’ tendon in April 2018 just got over the 2nd skin graft and 6 weeks on bed rest. And walked for the first time at Christmas.

[@kathbeth43]

well I am disabled with spinal stenosis so that's why I'm learning to do my own nails. Kuddos to you ladies though!

[@zannad2751]

Congratulations!!!!!!! I fighting stage 3 cancer right now. I do nails for the fun of it. You will love it as long as you have fun with it. I love to create a design between the layers of acrylic. I pray you stay cancer free and you learn and enjoy doing nails. I order alot of stones and different items for nail in the wish app. I ordered my still from there it is amazing and i don't have to pay alot for things I need. I am self taught and i learn alot from videos. I love the way she explains every step that she does and explains the do's and don'ts of each different nail form that she creates. Blessings and prayers.

[@Kissinglife-Tina]

Seven minutes! You used seven minutes applying the acrylic. Even for a one-bead set, that's insane! Heck, I use seven minutes just to get one single good bead. I doubt many can beat your time and still have the same quality before any filing.

[@RellieTReal]

Kissing Life (Tina) ikr! saying the same thing

[@TheLady2085]

Kissing Life (Tina) it could've been faster if she didn't had to file that much.

[@faithwon3932]

I'm one of those who cannot show appreciation enough to all of you who take the time out of your day to contribute in captioning Kirsty's videos. You all are my ears, and it's an absolute lifesaver! Big hugs to all of you! The auto captioning is horrible on KZbin. I say that with all kindness because KZbin as a company can't listen and caption every uploaded video as there are way too many. That's why I love Kirsty's videos so much. I don't have to worry about what I'm reading. I applaud Kirsty for using contributors to caption the videos correctly. You, my dear Kirsty, have a subscriber for life because you do awesome nails, and you care about those of us who need help in understanding the spoken word! I wish others would follow your example.

[@Longhairprettynails]

Wow, so fast. Great job!

[@imperceptibleme]

Watching you do nails has inspired me to try to do my own nails. I'm 63 and have never had a professional manicure in my life. Woot I'm excited. Girl you are amazing!

[@mrs.clarissamoorefield9414]

I believe knowing that you are being timed is why it's taking so long for you. You should have someone time you for a full set of tips randomly then give you the results. Over here in US it is standard to allow one hour for full set tips which is about 45 min with clean up time to prep for next client.

[@slaveNo-4028]

right upper camera view needs to be on full screen more often.. like when shes filing I WANNA SEE WHATS HAPPENING YOU HAD ONE JOB ADAM

[@christinepolland9500]

O Bouabda

[@shaelb8015]

😂😂😂😂

[@melissadelrosario5236]

Adam is one of the best camera guys out there so whoever said that try maybe being a bit kinder to get your point across next time. Just because you're not face to face doesn't mean that words don't hurt.. Kristi and Adam are the best nail wonder twins (wonder twin powers activate) (it's from a really old cartoon)

[@shabbydabby]

@@melissadelrosario5236 you can quit kissing ass pretty sure he knew they were joking that's why he joked back

[@PerfectlyImperfect6570]

What about doing it adding the pushing back of the cuticles and buffing the nails?

[@uncleiroh4602]

The best 42:45 minutes of my day 🤷🏼‍♀️💕

[@caradooley6479]

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! It takes me about that long for one nail!!!

[@starm.5892]

This is the most British video ever and I’m much enjoying it

[@TheVanillaShade]

Why am I so addicted to these nail art videos WHY

[@kathbeth43]

Eduarda, you're not the only one. :)

[@HealingMedicyn]

Yeah, I now want to do my nails which I haven’t had any interest in doing until getting addicted to these videos haha

[@swails57]

My husband says I am obsessed. Yep, I am. 😂

[@jacqfont9]

im still yrying to beat my own record. i take 2.5 hours. i take too long when i prep. i had a dream my time was down to 1.5 hours.and i was so happy. but it was a dream 😅

[@lelarobinson2854]

This is Jacquelyn lol

[@alisa4407]

literally me, but i feel like the more you do them, the more it becomes second nature and you become more confident with your work. In no time, you'll get the hang of it and become faster

[@shaelb8015]

😂😂😂😂

[@jpeterson2150]

fast and gorgeous too! so much fun! Thank you...as a newbie this helped too, especially seeing your filing. 😊

[@linails.acrylic7059]

hello kirsty if you have trouble sticking your tips is because you have applied the primer before .. it is necessary to first apply the tips and then primer. thank you for his videos always on top! you are the best 😍😍😍😍

[@Minihyptic3191]

Fastest full set i have ever had done took 20 mins :) including nail art ... but doing my own nails I need to take my time 😆

[@queendianna]

Hey girl! I have been using tips forever. Should I be pinching them?

[@tonniemiksch9994]

could you please do such a challenge but then with a set of gel nails?

[@amiberg1991]

omg when she said the phone needed to be on flight mode and then her phone rang 😂😂😂

[@melmarmoria167]

can you do the same challenge just with your own nails?

[@donnfugaroun5035]

Jessica Marmoria I watched videos of the last fill challenge of techs doing the fill on themselves, not sure if it counted...

[@donnfugaroun5035]

I think it has to be a client who is going to have to wear the nails lol

[@stephi2894]

Butterfluy

[@normajudithcarrizalestinaj9212]

Yo no se porque pero amo tus videos tanto y no hablo ingles solo te entiendo pocas cosas espero consideres los subtitulos ya que creo no soy la unica que habla español que te ve. Un abrazote eres una super tecnica te amo cristy. Desde San Luis Potosi Mexico 😍😍

[@lourdesgonzalez9419]

Hola, yo soy del Estado de México, saludos a S.L.P. y obvio Kristy es mi ídolo, he aprendido más de ella que en mis clases!!! Te amamos Kristy

[@bravehearticus]

34:02 “Take both hands and go grab a life” Nearly wet myself laughing 😂

[@carolharrison5416]

Girl you are fast and talented too girl you are truly amazing love your work as always

[@yenisseileal3834]

You are so great you’re the only one I learn from on KZbin seriously!!!

[@tubeofyou]

we have VIPoo too, it's called Poo-Pourri here across the pond;)

[@normafranco8138]

I just watched this for the first time! I sat thru all of it. Gonna try the challenge!

[@ella_cinder4361]

Lol Here in Canada we have "Poo Pourri". It's a spray as well. If u have matches, light one after u've done ur business and the sulfur from the match is what gets rid of the smell.

[@xoxozari]

What brush are you using & where from ? 😩

[@lollipopnails6634]

Nice job Kirsty! I have the same problems applying tips. Not all the time, just when I'm rushing lol! When I use the efile I swear it sounds like spongebob laughing 😂😂

[@dragonking5857]

Wow you did such an amazing job on those tips even though you said their not your favorite I wish you was around my area so you could do my nails!!! Also you said you did a ballaernia shape I get that same shape only and it’s called coffin??? Love your work you are out of this world good at what you do!!!!

[@justjan147]

What a fun video....I gotta tell you as a yankee and even with the captions on there were bits I couldn't understand what the heck ya'll were saying but it didn't matter one bit. It was fun to watch and listen in. BTW that stuff you use to keep your poo from stinking really does work. The one we have in the states is called Poo-pourrie. You spray the water in the toilet, have your go and you only smell the spray. It's great stuff!

[@pambaumgartner526]

Even though you are fast I can see you still take care to do an excellent job with her nails. They are damn near perfect!

[@barbaragaia7]

pena que não entrega no Brasil!!!! gosto muito do seu trabalho fico vendo e babando. Sucesso aí

[@PamelaPoisontv]

I don't know why I love to watch her applying acrylic ❤

[@croxie]

You guys stopped adding the automatic subtitles to your videos? They're not perfect, but better than nothing for those of us who are hard of hearing.

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

They're not automatic ;) We haven't had chance to sit and put subtitles on all of the videos recently, but we're working on it :)

[@charlotterosejohnson8225]

Naio Nails where's you're pink acrylic brush from?

[@shortstuff2700]

croxie you can set your own device to do the subtitles. ..naio doesn't have to

[@ashleyc2525]

croxie - you can also turn on the auto generated subtitles provided by KZbin, they aren't always correct but most of the time they're helpful!

[@croxie]

I'm referring to the auto generated subtitles by KZbin themselves. The option for that is usually available, but it's not been there lately. I think that you can set that when you upload or edit a video.

[@missykittekat]

damn that was really fast!

[@bevelynelangman7537]

You are amazing and I love watching your videos and learning from you😄

[@ReynaNails]

Hello kirsty can be with sculptural forms or it has to be tips only.

[@kathbeth43]

I am 59, disabled and need a hobby so I've decided to teach myself how to do my own nails. Its going to be my challenge. I love your videos so you are gping to be my teacher.*HUGS*

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

You are gonna be amazing at nails! Lots of love from Naio 💖💖

[@beanieweanie5167]

how do you get the Holo in your hair?! I love it!

[@kaitlynclark5910]

Ashley Gandy it's hair tinsel!

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

Kaitlyn Clark how do you secure It? Do you wash it out and then reapply the strands?

[@FireOfThePhoenix]

Kelsey Morine-Reid You use a knot at the base of the 1 hair strand not glue. And it stay in until you cut it off or it grows out. There are videos on how to do it. It is called hair tinsel. 😄😉

[@funkiichiicka]

You make it look so easy lol. How long does it take for Kirsty to do exactly this when shes not necessarily rushing? Including prep. Cos I take about 1hr15-30 and my manager (who isnt a nail tech) keeps telling me I need to get it done in 40 mins including gel polish which is so stressful. I have definitely taken note of how long it took Kirsty to do each part so i can work towards that. Thanks so much for this video. Also please can you do a video on prepping nails which need quite a bit of cuticle work like very overgrown etc x

[@bflmps77]

Girl, when u have some loyal clients, just start your own business instead of listening to stupid manager... How can you make perfect job while constantly under stress?

[@MissGold888]

Tell your ignorant manager to eff off and just do you.

[@gemmascutt4528]

hi kitsty random question what tips do you use?

[@kellybaxtermarin1013]

Does it have to be with tips or can u start the nails after the forms are applied warm beige my fave color 😍

[@Lilliee423]

This was, somehow, super relaxing to watch.

[@brecksbaby]

What tips did you use? I've been looking for good quality tips to use.

[@yinete1991]

I have a question, why the hard gel or sculpting gel needs uv lamp? I try in my nails with sculpting gel in led and cure but its so hottttttttt in you nails. this its the reason.

[@sylviacharlene]

Aileen Aponte I think that means the coat of gel or acrylic is too thick? I heard it somewhere but can't remember for sure. Hope that helps!

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

Aileen Aponte the gel is too thick. It's better to do two smaller layers. With that much product the reaction to the light it going to fast. It's a bunch of atoms linking together super fast. With the product too thick the reaction is more because there more product. I know I'm rambling now. It's almost 2am here. Lol. So I hope you understand a bit more:)

[@oceanbelow]

You are soul tribe! ❤ Love your craft and spirit! So funny!

[@TheFlissT]

Loved this and lived the first 6 minutes. It just goes to show even the best can mess up sometimes, especially when under pressure. You could of easily not uploaded this and started again and we would never of known so well done for being totally honest 😊 - also I got in trouble for painting my nails on a plane before, the fumes actually made me feel a bit high so must be something to it lol xx

[@mynamesem6601]

Felicity omg same on a school trip a couple years ago to Spain, I bought an Essie polish at the airport and I loveddd it. I painted one hand on the plane and I got a right bollocking! I looked really stupid as well, with only one hand painted 😂

[@elainekriescher3356]

Wicked! So glad you did this. I am training to be a nail technician and to watch this was great - I do gels and it currently takes 1 30 with tips and curing time!! Boohoo!

[@jessicar6413]

Love the shape and color of the nails.

[@octjoejrzo]

I love it! I haven't tried timing myself... I'm so afraid 😯, but after watching this video I'm gonna do it! Thank you so much for doing this video, I enjoy all of them but this one by far was the best 🤗

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

Aurora Plancarte if you are looking to improve your time. Do a set on someone else or yourself and take the time to individually time each part. The prep. Write it down. The application right it down and so on so you can see what part takes you the most time and then work on improving that part!!! It's helped me a out a bunch to do that!!!

[@novaaziz1245]

Ur working with solar right? Cause my liquid would dry fast

[@MegaGeorgia123456]

Where is the pink acrylic brush from?

[@nmninos]

Is the drill you are using the one available on your site? (out of stock at minute tho) :-)

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

Nicoletta O'Rafferty-Ninos unfortunately not x

[@beckymcdaniel6402]

Please please tell me what type of efile do you have. I have the hand piece from naio nails but wanted to know about the machine.

[@sharronsteel]

hi can u tell me which tips were used in this video please x

[@machellehilst6835]

I love your videos!!!! You are so damn talented on doing art and 3D. You are a blast to watch!!! How do I find the powders and items you sell??? I love sparkly colored powders!!

[@reinedayslambo8780]

is base coat can be use to hydrate the nails? sorry first timer here

[@Tata-iu3fy]

do you use new files and buffers on each client?

[@belindalaing7592]

Awesome !! love the long videos of full sets 😙

[@tubeofyou]

this is a really cool type of video, thank you, can't wait for the next one!

[@katykemp4188]

hey! what acrylic brush are you using please? xx

[@TrickyVic25]

What size brush do you use please Kirsty? x

[@lovelyleina2934]

Getting my nails done by Kirsty is on my bucket list

[@kieramckimm5319]

That's amazing how fast you can do them, takes me 2 hours to do a full set of gel or acrylic 😂😂 I use hand files tho wish I was drill trained 💖 love all your videos Kirsty😍❤️

[@Lavisparks]

'take those hands and go grab a life' haha, omg Kristy 😂😂😂😂😂

[@nuckey8941]

Lavisparks I also loveddddddd that comment 😍😍😍👏🏾👏🏽👏🏿👏🏻👏🏼

[@donnaburns9077]

What brush are you using for applying Kirsty?

[@jamiejauw9112]

where is the link for those tips and those amazing tweezers used to pinch the sides??

[@hollypatriciacretney]

Do you not etch over the nail plate first when you do a full set?

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

Holly Cretney what is etch?

[@carinebouba7883]

I think I will take me 38 years to be able to do this. And it looks perfect !

[@JoseAndMonica2021]

If I do this challenge can I do it with builder gel instead of acrylic?

[@elpidiarayo6640]

me encanta tu trabajo!

[@colleenasteevesbos6975]

These nails turned out beautifully....of coarse. Question; Kirsty, did you ever use the per-pinched stiletto tips? For some reason I'm thinking you did and I don't know why.

[@deeziner4]

Great job, fun video.......now you hafta do a set of pink and whites!!!!!

[@joannmay-anthony1076]

i did my first full set in acrygel a few days ago, and it took me 2 hours for my left little finger and 7 more hours for the other 9 nails.

[@krissyxoxo5041]

great challenge! love love love your videos i'm learning so much! thank you xx

[@TheLadySakai]

Now would be a good time to do this challenge in hard gel?

[@stephsglam8305]

I love watching your videos I'm learning on how to do nails I want to do it the right way

[@YorkshireLassWithClass]

Did you only pinch one hand? I ask because her left hand looks wider than the right? Either way that was lightening fast. It takes me 2 hours to do a full set of tips but I am only learning. It used to take me a lot longer than that when I first started and I thought I'd never speed up but I'm patient if nothing else lol. Tfs 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

craftymoo1 I've learned it's quality first then the speed comes in time. It used to take me about 3 hours to do a fill or a new set on someone. But now it's usually an hour to an hour and a half sometimes 2 if they get super intricate nail art.

[@eva-marlenesonmark3065]

This video was fun looking at! Fast as hell, you rock 🤘

[@kellymcgiveron9189]

hi I've got a nail off an it's ripped a hole in my nail bed any ideas what I can do please it's really sore xxx

[@kellymcgiveron9189]

I bit my nail off and it ripped my nail bed sorry im typing with stumps 😂 need mt nails back on

[@Jen_CuddleBunsCrochet]

Really sad now that it still takes me almost 2 hours to do a set on myself lol. I love watching your videos for inspiration!! Thank you!!

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

JEN.I. AM oh girl it takes me way longer to do on myself than 2 hours but I also love doing super intricate nail art lol

[@Irispia97]

JEN.I. AM maybe you could pursue a different career No customers want to sit in a chair for two hours

[@FireOfThePhoenix]

Scarlet, she said 2 hours on herself. NOT a client. Not to mention that comment was a bit rude! 😠 Jen, it takes me a long time to do my OWN nails too! Only cuz I am that picky! 🤣😘

[@yarambv4]

Jen I AM- KEEP IT UP! PRACTICE MAKES THE PERFECTION AND YOU'LL SEE TIME WILL ALSO MAKE YOU FASTER! 😉 Scarlet Moonlight don't tell me that a full set with 3d art, encapsulated designs, color acrylic, Swarovski, blade work and much more won't take you 2 hrs cause I want too see how the f you do all that in an hr or 45 minutes. Smh! Your comment wasn't nice at all... Yeah a regular full set with one gel polish color I can do it in 30-45 minutes. I have clients that are willing to sit down for 2:30 hrs because they love how I work. I'm a perfectionist and good art job with different designs in each nail takes time to elaborate... How long DaVinci took to paint the Mona Lisa?! 😜

[@bunnyreign5271]

Yass that CB they don't know ringtone 💜💙💚💛❤ I used to light a candle when I went poo but I use the poopoo spray or room spray

[@kibaetienne2171]

That was fast!! And the nails is beautiful

[@mspls69FYI]

What size brush do u prefer to use?

[@friedaraeperkins3258]

That countdown clock in the corner is stressing me out for You! 😂 beautiful and quick, love it. 🔨💅💚💚💚

[@lanakeskisaari8409]

well done Kirsty!!!

[@tristan8104]

I’m a beginner and use forms. Forms help me make the coffin shape and that way I don’t deal with glue. One nail has taken me 10-20 minutes. I’m getting faster but still

[@SAB8570]

I know this is a nail video but I love your hair😍

[@montialarson]

When Kirsty was talking about her model, Adele, sometimes twitching it bit, it reminded me that when I'm told to hold still, like at the doctor or something, I seem to start twitching more. lol.

[@Rose_from_UK]

Watching Kirsty do nails makes me realise that in the past I have paid a LOT of Money to have my fingers butchered and crap nails fitted. No prep of cuticles or nail was ever done except for dehydrate and prime. I didn’t know that cuticles need to be removed etc, so assumed the tech knows what they are doing

[@margostephenson9048]

And I do look forward to seeing you do a full set. 😻😻😻✨

[@godisdead6611]

There's something so interesting about watching nail artists file and buff nails

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

Hash Slinger honestly it's so relaxing hahaha. I used to hate the sound but now when I do a client I just love the sound lol.

[@jessicawhitney1698]

Matches work best for a stinky bathroom. The phosphorous in the matches neutralize the smell.

[@HarleyTheCockatiel]

Hi I can't find the follow-up/react video challenge does anyone have a link to it? Thanks

[@nikvazquez4997]

when you have had your nails on for months and just keep getting fills how do you keep the acrylic from separating from your real nail?

[@kelseymorine-reid5863]

Nik Vazquez bonder and primer

[@lelarobinson2854]

aren't you wiping off the primer when you wipe the tip off with the solution?

[@PhoenixbyMonikaHuber]

great challenge Kirsty

[@squirrelfinder]

Loved this. Please do more real time (no time lapse) videos. Love watching you do beautiful creations.

[@itsallnalee]

Where can you get the tips you are using?
