OMG!! EASIEST ACRYLIC NAIL EVER!!! - How to Use Dual Forms to Create an Acrylic Nail

Hi guys,
In this video I to teach you how to use Dual Forms or "Topits". Dual Forms look like tips but they're actually not so you won't be able to cheat and use a tip.
In order to do the technique perfectly, you have to rest the form on the cuticle of your fingernail. PLEASE DON'T SQUISH IT DOWN, if you do this you will squish all of the product down into the free edge and you will have nothing on your nail.
Now you don't want that to happen because then you won't end up with a FABULOUS nail like mine. This is a fast, easy and efficient hack for nail techs AND beginners.
If you guys haven't already seen it, we are hosting an AMAZING competition where one of you lucky subscribers will have the chance of winning an iPAD AIR 2!!! OMG OMG OMG!!!
Be sure to check out the previous video for information on how you can win!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE 1MIL SUBS AND HERE'S TO THE NEXT MILLION!
Love,
Kirsty xxxx

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

Hi Guys, A few people have asked about Polygel, we have a 3D Sculpture gel which comes in lots of colours. It's amazing, I have done some great videos with it here on this channel. 3D SCULPTURE GEL COLLECTION - www.naio-nails.co.uk/search?type=product&q=3D+sculpture+Gel CABBAGE ROSE IN 3D GEL - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pamziqicpN92a68 SKULL IN 3D GEL - kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6O9ZWyXm5JsiZo Also we do ship to the US and many other countries, If you check the description box, there are links to our other sites

[@jobot86]

Naio Nails can you use the 3d sculpture gel in the same way as you did with the acrylic in this video with the nail form things? X

[@NaioNailsOfficial]

We haven't actually tried it on camera yet, that will be coming fairly soon i think.

[@manfredfails7485]

Naio Nails do you ship products to the USA?

[@pattihamilton0925]

I have the Gelish poly gel system, its super easy to use since you an manipulate for longer periods and last as well as gel nails. The one thing i found is the slip solution when it comes in contact with forms is that it makes the form adhesive release. There is limited colors to the gelish poly gel and that is a def drawback.

[@DS-yw3vp]

Thank you so much, darling, for teaching us how to choose dual form size AND preaching about the not pushing down and squishing. I did my first gel nail (ever) with forms tonight (before I watched your lovely video) and, indeed, I squished. And the underneath is totally attached to my finger now. LOL. Live and learn. And try again. :)

[@suestracks]

First of all, you are this best nail tech in the world, just had to say that, I love your videos and you are a hoot. Your camera man is brilliant. His close ups are amazing!. That's all, carry on.

[@tinawixson6553]

I really like your videos Christie I like how you're very informative and you're very patient to show us each correct stop and the camera guy asks questions that I would ask and his close-ups are really good. I do have a question however what if you don't have the quick setting monomer liquid can you use the regular setting, does it take a lot longer to set?

[@lindsey9094]

I personally enjoy watching nail career education more, but I come to this channel when I already watched Susie’s videos. 😂

[@melindafrazer1427]

Well said Sue C54. Nailed it 🤣

[@hannahdunsford5979]

To keep the underside smooth without filing you could place a sculpting form on! This would keep the acrylic flush with your free edge as well! It takes a couple of seconds and saves so much time with filing!!

[@teresa505]

Ive been using polygel and having difficulty with it until I saw your video. After watching, I finally found out what I was doing wrong. Thank you!! I am learning a lot from you!

[@rshimarora9221]

Omg when she cleans the underside at 12:45... So weirdly satisfying to watch! I had to replay that part twice 😍🤤

I’ve wanted to be a nail technician for years, and I’m finally doing my courses this year! I seriously cannot wait! And the one thing I’m determined of, is to have the FULL urban graffiti collection and Naio powders! Filling up my basket as we speak 😂 thank you Kirsty for years of inspiration and knowledge, you’ve been the main push and source of techniques over the years for me. I wouldn’t be where I am now without your videos 💕

[@kat090181]

Thanks for posting this Kirsty. I've been using these for my non dominant hand. I tried the exact ones you used off eBay, but found that the pronails ones are way better. They are sturdier and have a scale to allow you to choose lengths. I've also used them with tips. Works great. Great to see that a professional would consider using these not just us amateurs!xx

[@tinayeager7267]

This is cool!! I have these but never tried in acrylic. I love how Adam ask all the questions that we were possibly thinking. Very informative. Thanks

[@tishri60]

Your technique is very simple to follow. Love your personality and care free style.

Penne p .

[@hellokittybg93]

Why is this technique not more popular among nail technicians when it's much more practical and easier to do? Especially when working with non dominant hand

[@hellokittybg93]

Also I don't like that the apex is not as high as when you make it, doesn't look good to me, the way you do nails looks so much better tbh

[@cassieng17]

I think its because you cant guarantee a perfect application and sometimes it doesnt last as long. And also because of the dual forms cost more than normal forms. Its all about the profits

[@themurrrr]

I think because it limits what designs you can do. Also, the designs you can do will always have to be done in reverse, which is not always easy.

[@MixedProductionsmixingthingsup]

IKR!

[@omawumiadokpaye6628]

cassieng17 If you are talking about the fear of not having the nails last that long, I can understand but you can get some good dual forms from some good sites for cheap

I'm so glad I seen this, I was squishing the form down and my nails kept breaking right off using poly gel...I think tonight I will try again without pushing down so hard

[@tteodora6798]

I’ve been doing this for a few years and it honestly saves you money and they come off easier than when you get them done at the salon.

[@missmeliss4352]

I could watch Kirsty apply nails like that all day Never seen that before!

[@TillyAygo19]

I used dual forms for the first time today and omg there my new best friend especially when doing my own nails. Before my nails look awful they were lumpy and bumpy bit now there so smooth and I even found it easier using my non dominant hand. I can do a normal acrylic nail with tip and overlay on other people but in me it was a nightmare but dual forms have saved me time so now I can spend more time on the design.

Believe it or not am using it now. It is so easy. Thank you for this video.

Felicia Suharja Susie at the channel Nail Career education has a video with the pop offs using gel.

[@annreed8602]

GREATEST TIP!!! No other video that I have seen talks about proper sizing, and allowing room for product. The SIDEs after product need to be covered with product for strength, sizing up to allow room for product is brilliant!!! TO cuticle, rock it down and NO SQUISHING FLAT!!! Brilliant!! Thank you!

[@lasAlasdeNatsumi]

This is like the third video of dual forms I've seen. I might just try this! Everyone says it's so quick, easy and fool proof, I really want to buy a kit and do it myself.

[@SaidhbhinAisling]

This looks so awesome and easy to use for doing my own nails. I have Familial Tremors and doing my own nails is very, very difficult for me and I can't afford to have them done at a salon. I will definitely check these out! Thank you, Kirsty

[@beccameyers2255]

Rachel Robinson, I keep seeing this as a new thing, yet I remember them being called poppits years ago because they were easy to use and you just popped them off. You could presculpt your set of nails and use them when you hot ready! 😀

Don't feel bad Rachel! I remember when people only did polishing Nail! technology has come a lonnnng way over the years! When I started out in nails they didn't have none of this stuff! 🤣

With arcylic application, could you do a thinner layer of arcylic then apply another layer on top to build structure and strength

[@nicolewelch6165]

Yes

[@prettyp359]

Absolutely! You can make a thin layer with the dual form or regular form and cure to make a "tip". Then, add more product to form the apex and fill cuticle area and cure again. File and shape!

[@jennferrell6118]

I'm not a nail tech, but I've been addicted to your channel for awhile now, you're fabulous! So I've watched enough of your videos to understand about the apex and how it helps the structure of the nail. I noticed with the dual forms that there was no building up of the apex to strengthen the structure. Is it necessary to build the apex or is it more of an aesthetic thing? Is it something that you can build with a dual form if you wanted to? Just a question for curiosity's sake. Thanks in advance!

Nobody is Judging you. I am so sorry you got Dermatitis. I am surprised I haven't broke out myself with all the stress I have in my life, especially the past 10 years. I fell getting out of my vehicle in 08 causing me to have 5 Herniated discs in my neck & 2 Bulging Discs in my Lower back. I had 3 Discs surgically removed & a plate screwed in on my neck. I suffer from pain every day. I can no longer work, if I do to much my body shuts down & I am in bed for 3-7 days. I pray that you get back to being unstressed. Put some antibiotic cream or ointment on your hands & wrap them at night & I am positive that the Dermatitis will be gone within less than a week. @nail Nails

Have you tried using coconut oil on the cuticles? Mine have been totally dried out, cracking because of the weather and I have been using the coconut oil and it is working so well. I also apply it just before going to bed so it really has a chance to soak in. I also did a soak with foil over so the heat from the ends of my fingers made it really soak in the skin and (not kidding) they looked like new cuticles afterwards. Sorry you are going through this!!!

I bought a set many months ago. While I love how quick and easy it is, my pointer finger nail always came out too pointed down. No one ever explained you are supposed to leave the gap. Now I know what to do next time! Thank you so much for your detailed tutorial.

Glad I’m not the only one who remembered duel forms from the first time round 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@htownandi6263]

FantasyFXnails Janine do you remember poppit nail forms? Now that i think about it, I wish I would have kept mine.

But will the apex be strong/thick enough though?? I understand you dont need the whole filing on the top of the nail so it might need less stress on the nail itself..

[@siejent]

debb0r It's only a "base" you can make it as thick as you want it to be just by adding acrylic/gel on top of it 😊

[@originalgreenfuzzer]

OMG! Thank you so much! I was flattening them out when sizing. Palm to forehead!

[@spctvl03]

WOW! That turned out SO NICE! Thank you for the instructions, I'm a beginner at nails (NOT A NAIL TECH) and didn't want to spend a fortune at the salons all of the time.

Do you dehydrate and prime before you apply the form? And does this prevent or promote lifting?

[@beckyjones6200]

Yui Tachibana it's much the same as normal acrylic application. The dehydrator removes some natural oil from your nails (natural nail oils cause lifting). The primer seeps in to your nail slightly and acrylic sticks/bonds with the primer. If you form a nail without this prep either traditionally or with a dual form it would pop off like a press on nail from the 80's lol

Becky Jones Lol 80' s press on nails made me think of Lee Press on Nails. 💅

[@gemmagerken9876]

Love this tutorial! I've heard of dual forms but had no idea what they were or how to use them, until now! X

[@landers726]

Amazing way to do it quietly Thank you so much good afternoon
