“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!

How much??? $105??

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes, that's exactly right! $90 for the set, $5 x 2 for the 2 additional acrylic colors (on sale now) and $5 for the mylar.

[@entrancedbynails3919]

@@youngnailsinc How do you determine price for the base set? Are some shapes more expensive than others? I've seen some of your guys' how much videos and seen some nails longer than these that are also $90. Is there a formula or something, or is it just $90 for extensions, period?

[@alex200477]

It's worth it .

[@youngnailsinc]

@@entrancedbynails3919 Everyones base price is different depending on your area. Typically custom shapes and lengths are extra $10-$20 from there. Then the art work is additional on top of that.

[@emilyhathaway7417]

@@youngnailsinc i was looking for the two acrylic colors on your site. I don’t see it. Is it on there to order?

[@Sweetamber222]

The fact that’s she’s starting application at the 6 minute mark. Holy Hell. Nail Tech Olympics 😲😄

[@Dawnkniest]

so glad I watched this video. my 20yr old daughter suffers depression and anxiety and is a huge nail bitter because of it. until I saw this video I make her wait for me to do a set of nails on her till her nail free edge is grown out.

[@mariatavarez1106]

Nail tech Olympics competitions. Love it. 💅💅🤣😁

[@divinahbeauty250]

The reason I love this series is because after I watch it I like to listen to it and do nails to see if I can catch up to Tracey's speed as she talks through everything she does. I'm not there yet but it certainly helps me to move quicker.

[@iliaslamprou7525]

Awesome idea!!!!!!! Thank you so much😙

[@u2bleas]

So true Divina. I have them talking to me in the back of my head telling me what to do! lol

Me too!!!!!!! Watching her work helps me and I try to find one thing each time and work on it ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏 thanks, Tracyyyyy we love you!!!!! ❤️

[@marianneciovacco8565]

The advice Tracy gave was immeasurable. Don't over think the process, streamline the filing, Trust the Process

[@faeryprincezz]

Add two hours to that time and that's how long it takes me, even for a fill. 😂

[@Jamiliciious]

Hahahahah sameee

[@beckymerritt7280]

God... Same girl! The struggle is real

[@brendawines358]

2 hrs for a fill here too. I hope to get faster. But I’m a perfectionist

[@madisonanderson100]

Finally, other techs that go at my speed too 😂 clients say its well worth it but I feel bad since i'm also a perfectionist. Hope to get this fast!

[@faeryprincezz]

@@madisonanderson100 the clients I have don't mind that it takes me that long but I want to add new clients and I'm afraid they'll only come once because of how long it takes me. I'm working on not being a perfectionist but still putting out great nails.

[@courtney2590]

Side note can I just say she does the socials amazingly lol I’ve never seen a brand be so there for and interact w their consumers so well so kudos lol ❤️

[@Nails_By_Kimberlee]

True!

[@PrairieGypsy]

I would have to agree there!

[@mlfranca2047]

Can you guys make a body ergonomics video? Like how to hold your body and their hands and get the very sides without contorting? Like beginner mistakes of body placement

[@youngnailsinc]

Thanks for the suggestion, we will let the team know

[@kibaetienne2171]

Yesss!! I concur 🙋🙋

[@donnaw246]

I would love this!! I just started working as a nail tech after graduating school and find myself already conforming to the client as opposed to having them conform to me. Also, another good lesson for beginners would be how to really get clients to loosen up and stop trying to help you by moving their fingers how they think they should to "help you". Tracey touched on this briefly in this video but didn't have time to go into how to correct that as she was on a time crunch here. Lol. I had a lady really trying to "help" me wiggling her finger everywhere when I was trying to file, prep and apply gel polish on a natural nail and it made it take so much longer than necessary. I just couldn't get her to keep her fingers still and trust that I knew where and how I needed her finger to move. Lol!!

[@shaunetteerasmus5387]

yes please!!!

[@BBB-rd2qi]

My daughter will not confirm for me... I refuse to do her acrylics anymore.

[@courtney2590]

Now do it in gel lol 🤪

[@Galathile]

Yaaaaa real time the retuurrnnnnnn🔥🔥🔥

[@lillianbrown87]

For your merch you guys should have a T-shirt that says “TRUST THE PROCESS!!!” I tell myself this every time I do nails. 🤣

[@ricaivory6571]

I'd but it, or even pay the 40$ for a hoodie 🥰

[@Bettyspaghetti666]

Love Tracey, she is honest, sassy yet so humble 💖

[@NailsbyBunnyBear]

❤️❤️❤️💯

[@jackiestinnett380]

Couldn't have said it better myself.. I came here to say the exact same thing. Lol. She's great!

[@SarahhhBeth]

It’s so nice to see a set done on bitten nails!! It seems like most of my new clients lately come in with super bitten nails! Great job as always, Tracy!!

[@adiithao732]

Please do more real time videos! This really helps me learn about how long I should take on prep, application and filing. Bring it back!

[@alexiscooke7757]

I'm so happy to see Real Time videos again!!! I love watching Tracy work!!! I go back and rewatch these all the time!

[@SarahhhBeth]

Me too! It’s my favorite series! So helpful!!

I got a YN add on this episode 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 10/10 advertising!

[@carriewnuk2465]

I absolutely adore Tracey and how real she is. 💕

[@zacharykadash82]

I really want to see a realistic nail challenge! I've seen people do the half moon in fun colors and beautiful smile lines but I wanna see where they do the half moon and smile line on a nail in organic, natural colors that make the long acrylic nail look like a natural nail!

[@kibaetienne2171]

Kiera's nails turned out beautiful 💝 Tracey you won in my opinion cause it would take me 3 hours 😅😅 More of these videos plzzz 😘😘

[@tygervapes]

I love this video! The way that Tracey handled the problem was a better education than if everything went perfectly! Things sometimes do go wrong, and it's critical to be able to pivot and recover while keeping your composure. Not to mention, she still finished in under an hour with tons of time to spare! Inspiring! 🤩

[@MsLadybugg76]

Another win for YN! I appreciated you guys showing real-time situations and showing us how to fix our mistakes. This is something that could’ve been easily edited out. This video and others like it sets you apart from the rest.

[@aerongrimm3162]

Tracy thank you so much for talking about perfection and trusting yourself 🧡 I have severe PTSD from decades of abuse and paralyzing perfectionism is something that I'm actively unlearning right now. It's a steep learning curve and it's painful and emotional, but it's so important. Especially in this industry. There's an elitist and ableist mentality in a lot of schools and companies that's done a lot of damage, and it's so vital that people hear that they can undo that 🖤

[@briannal696]

Watching Tracy do this full set in less than an hour is INSANE! I did my own nails last night and was proud to finish 1 hand in and hour and a half! (and all I did was a fill with some basic nail art 🤣) I just started school in November of last year, and so far so good! I am glad to have found a place that actually teaches me more of what I need to know in order to sculpt beautiful nails! Can't wait until I get my times down to 1 hour a set!! 🤣

[@youngnailsinc]

Everyone works at their own pace and doing your own hands takes even longer! Good work & you've got this!! Thanks for watching!

[@jennifermoralespantoja2669]

I really missed this videos! Thanks for all the “realness” of this set! You’re amazing Tracy!

[@christineferguson2088]

I love knowing that even someone who has been doing this for years makes mistakes!! So real&shows everyone has downfalls with everything/anything ❤️❤️❤️. Love you all🥰

[@FamilienFerdosi]

Literally EVERYTHING you say at the end is so so true! Crap happens Don't stop Don't book unknown clients short (make a time buffer) Tracy, you are my queen and main reason to succes ❤️

[@kimberlychilds5744]

Seeing that nail pop off was honestly so helpful. Really takes the pressure off of being perfect, and shows how to handle it.

[@spectralartnailstudio]

To add to capping in gel, gel is easier to hand file so it may be easier for some people to get a nice even surface as well.

[@joslynnford7742]

This is how I spend my days often!! Thank you Tracey and team!! Let’s do it!! ‘Again’

[@jjeessz]

The fact that you can hold a conversation, sit back out of frame, fix a nail, and complete that beautiful set within 53 min is astounding Tracy! 💚💚💚

[@queenofstitcheswarrior2668]

Ahhrgg i wish it was with gel! Please make the next real time challenge with your gel system 🙏🏼 But still very helpfull! Aspecially as a nail biter and square nail+form. I do get nervous watching someone work this fast, in a hurry😅

[@CVL219]

Gel is becoming a thing of the past. Older clients still prefer it but I believe it's a fad

[@m73s91]

I'm learning so much from all your vids! I've been doing nails since 1994 and I can truly say that I didn't learn in school as much as I'm learning with you all! Thank you soooo much for all the amazing videos you put out there. I was like Tracy, I was a perfectionist and she has taught me to let loose and trust the process! Shout out to Tracy!!

[@meganjade5706]

I’ve been wanting to request a video on “normal” hands. I’ve seen so many of your videos and they are mostly done on people with really nice nails (like steph-her nail beds are just gorgeous!) that are shaped in a way that it’s easier to do. I have a friend who I would like to start practicing on but her nails are SO TINY! This is exactly what I needed-it’s like y’all read my mind!!! Beautiful set, btw!!

[@DamTamm]

🥰 May I just say when u mention “sorry guys if my head was in the way“ honey…. for me, I’m so zoomed in all I see is the nail 😂🤪🥰❤️‍🔥💘👀

[@mlfranca2047]

So her prep is 3-5 minutes but what if you do Russian manicures included in prep? My prep takes 10-20min because I do the Dry manicure cuticle work then the nail bed prep. Can you do a real time with YN cuticle bits and cuticle prep?

[@missbindiboop]

Agree! I spend most of my time doing cuticle work. I have maybe 3 clients that come in with cuticles like the ones in this video. I would LOVE to see a real time video with thick, calloused, sticky cuticles.

[@mjaydelacruz8496]

I never do the manicure first I always push back the cuticles then apply the product. When I electric file after that it takes care a lot of the cuticles. If there is still some left then I will use special bits to clean it up. I find if I spend my time giving a manicure I end up making them bleed when I’m doing there artificial enhancement.

[@KA-vd9wm]

@@mjaydelacruz8496 then you're just overfiling the cuticles. Never have I ever let my client bleed with a file after the e-manicure.

[@claravelasquez9726]

The nail design was beautiful, the nail rescue was quick 👍 well the whole set. But I'm a girl of fine details, I feel like it needed better alignment along the cuticles with the acrylic, some look Lil crooked, n some slightly thicker then others.. well that's to my closer eye vision. But at a glance they still look beautiful. Gosh I'm picky, is why I started doing my own and take for ever hahaha I don't think I'll ever take less then hr.. Anyways cool challenge.

I have really thin, short, and tiny little nails; and you couldn't be more right about it being harder to do small nails🤯 Especially when encapsulating! Habib, you better still buy her lunch, Mister! You gotta keep in mind that she was ALSO continuously answering a thousand questions on the spot... Soooo.... that's gotta count too! AND she was making her client her number one focus; I have literally NEVER had a tech give me attention like that! (In fact, they've never even spoken to me unless they were saying something was gonna cost more (inexplicably); I say she won that challenge!😊💖💅🏼
