I'm SO happy to find a tutorial that doesn't involve buffing the natural nails! The whole reason I started doing my nails was to break the habit of biting them so they could grow and be healthy. It never made sense to scratch the hell out of them when my main goal is to keep them from being damaged.

lol buffing if to allow it to stick and stay on the nail. i.g. u buff when getting acrylic to prevent lifting through havung a better hold of the natural nail if that makes sense. it like when clay makers scratch clay when sticking pieces together

@Danica Wilson Agree! It annoys me when I tell them to be careful of my natural nail and they still get the electronic drill out. I had a salon have 2 ladies do this to my hands 3 times through before I said something. They basically sanded my nail so far down that you could see the pink skin underneath and then my nail broke 2 days later because my natural nail was so weak underneath.

I've been a licensed nail technician for 20 years and I'm struggling with dip powder. I stumbled upon your video, and everything you said about prep and application is exactly right. I've been practicing on myself because I can't in good conscience offer this as a service until I get it perfected. I realized watching this video that I have basically been treating the dip powder the same as I treat acrylic powder, and this may be the problem. I think I prep and finish too aggressively, so I'm going to try your techniques (and products: I just ordered the glass cuticle pusher and the Mani Boss base, activator, and two colors) and see if I get better results. Mani Boss was sold out of both the top coat and the gel base/top coat so I'll use mine and hope they play well together. I appreciate how articulate you are, I'm interested in watching your other videos to see what else I can learn. Thank you also for the product links and discount codes! :)

It wasn’t working for me at first either then I realized it’s better to do one layer on each nail instead of doing three layers on one nail at a time.. if you do one layer on each nail then do the second layer and so on it gives it time to dry.. i use her method lol

It’s been a month since I brought my mail dip powder kit from beetles brand. 3 weeks since I started using & testing it out on myself. I was a little disappointed in liquid applicators sizes, which holds half of product. The dip powders are really small than I assumed. The quality is really good! It’s a great starter for someone who wants to save money and do your nails at home! Less work to do compared to poly gel and using monomer. Which as a strong overwhelming smell. I can’t get use too. It’s a bit messy and lots of dust as usual, if you shape and buff your nails before and after! Prepping the nail is super important when using dip powder, this video is well spoken!! I will be buying my own glass nail filer and cuticle pusher, bristle brush as well as buffing blocks. Thank you!

Wow! Mind blown. Like many others here, I was too rough on my nails the first time around removing a salon dip. My nails are trying to grow back but some won’t stop splitting into the quick or layers lifting off. I dipped the worst ones in clear just to protect them. I am a total newbie who wants nails and COLOR! So much so I have dozens of dip jars hidden from my hubby lol with more on their way. And the glass cuticle pusher will be in the mailbox soon too. I did my right, dominant, hand yesterday (don’t judge…) and it took me approximately 7-8 hours 🤯 with adding tips. Whose dumb idea was it to add tips? On one stinking hand!!! UGH! So glad I found you this morning Chelsea. I’ll be trying your way on the left hand after lunch. There are so many things I love about your video I can’t even name them all. Not buffing the nails, a layer of dip base as a base coat (brilliant) clear, concise instructions and explanations are just a few. One of the biggest?

A little goes a long way with both glues. Make sure that they are nail resin brush on glues and not regular nail brush on glues (those are for doing tips and other press ones). Resins resemble closer to a gel consistency while the regular brush on glue is runny like water (free flowing).

Right now I’m using peel base, so I’m not soaking in acetone. Peel base allows for easy pop off removal, usually within 1-3 days. To keep up with filming it’s great, but for longevity it’s not something I would use. Sometimes I’ll play with gel polish on top of dip powder!

I loved your video. My daughter and law have been doing dip nails together and we both get a lot of lifting or the dip mail popping off. So, watching this I hope next dipping will help. I already use the glass pusher and love it. I was also using the blue cross cuticle and I am wondering if that should have ever be used. I also buffed probably way too much before and after. Thank you for your helpful hints!

So nice how it is explained here, what kind of thin layer of base you have to smear on it. I did dipping nails too fat my first time. But now I know for next time 😊

I have been struggling with lifting at the cuticles, I do really like the base layer tip, that helped a bit when I first heard about it. Just ordered a glass cuticle pusher, hopefully that stops the lifting. I get lifting after 2-4 days

Great video! Glad to find your channel. I’ve been dipping all through this lockdown here for a couple of months and I’ve not used a gel topcoat. In the past when using gel polishes, they always just pop off my nails so hence trying dipping, my question is I guess, does the gel topcoat ever peel off a dip mani? Cheers
@SipAndDip2 жыл бұрын
Hi Lisa!! Welcome to our little nail community 🥰 so gel can be a little tricky and frustrating when it comes to peeling. Peeling usually occurs because the surface it is trying to attach to is too smooth. So for example with dip powder, you would buff and file the nail and then instead of doing gel top coat, do a layer of gel base. So gel base, cure 60 sec. then do not wipe off the tacky layer and do a layer of gel top coat, cure for 60 sec. Having a layer of gel base under the gel top coat with give it something to grab onto! I personally love the mani boss 2 in 1 gel base + top because I don’t have to do the extra steps and haven’t had a peeling issue 🥰 I hope this helps!

Fantastic video! My nails are a MESS from years of tips 😢. I have been 10 months with nothing and still splitting. Beds are now healthy but they still peel and split. After weeks of research, I read that nail embellishment is ok so long as you don't file the natural nail. I am hoping this is true. I finally came across your phenomenal video and you actually said you don't like to buff your natural nail 🤗🤗! Your natural nails look great. I am going to give the powder a try and hope it gets me past the splitting/peeling stage 🙏🤞.

Wonderful, informative video. Thank you so much! I have one question for clarity. Your suggested alternative for buffing nails in prep is to use a base coat and let it dry, before adding powder. Am I understanding correctly? Thanks so much. Very new to dip powder, and I REaLLY want to love it. But it lasts a week for me before they start (literally) lifting and popping off!
@rachelhelman20982 жыл бұрын
loved this video. I tried dip powder a couple of years ago and it wasn't great but I am really excited to try again after seeing yiur video. I'm a qualified gel nail tech and I think I was making mistakes in the prep. Hopefully it will be much better this time.

Omg with each video you post I feel like I am learning so much! THANK YOU! I'm not experienced enough to have come across any issues yet lol. My 1st dip went surprisingly well and is going strong almost a week later. I had a few questions: 1) I noticed you didn't use cuticle remover, do you remove the cuticle on dry nails? (no washing no cuticle remover product). 2) you recommended ASP dehydrator and sparkle & co pH bond, do you use them together or do you alternate between them? 3) you said the magic number seems to be 3 dips. Is that including the clear cap? (2 colour + 1 clear). Or did you mean 3 layers of colour and then capping with clear? Thank you so much again! You've made my dip journey so much easier 💕

This is best feedback and I SO APPRECIATE it! 🙌🏼🥰 so happy your dipping journey is going well!! Yayyy!!! I meant to mention cuticle removers during this video and totally forgot! So thank you for reminding me 🥰 I have seen others use cuticle remover and have a lot of great luck 🙌🏼 I believe some like blue cross blue shield. I have used Sally’s. But shew, it most definitely made my nails lift. I tried to find the ingredients on it to see if there was some type of oil in it but I didn’t have luck. Once I eliminated that, I had much better luck! The other issue is, when you use those products you usually wash your hands after so you should wait a little after before application. 2. Right now I predominantly use Sparkle and Co. Its just my current go to ☺️ I wanted to show both brands in case someone wanted to buy locally at Sally’s instead of online. But both are phenomenal! 3. 3 layers total including clear seems to be my magic number! 🙌🏼 with the mani boss liquids it isn’t thick and still natural. So 2 dips color and 1 dip clear 🥰 Thank you for these amazing questions! It’s so helpful to see what I can better explain! 💗

@@SipAndDip Oh Chelsea, you truly are amazing. I love your passion and sincerity. I've just entered the dip world and through it have "met" amazing people. The time you make for us, the quality, the details, your awesome personality....it truly has been a godsend. You're such an inspiration, and it's such an honour to walk through my nail journey with you holding my hand (otherwise I would have been like a headless chicken lol). Thank you for answering my questions! Honestly for my 1st dip I used a traditional metal scraper without cuticle remover and that worked fine for me! I have a Sally's next door that I can walk to so I will definitely get ASP and try my next dip with that! I also have glass cuticle pushers on their way as per your recommendation! I can't wait to level up on my next dip! I haven't tried your trick of starting with a dry layer of base coat as a foundation yet. Oh man I can't wait for my 2nd dip to implement what you've shared. Again, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. You've made this new hobby of mine much less intimidating and more exciting! Sending sparkles and love your way! xx
