STEP BY STEP HOW I GET MY GEL-X NAILS TO LAST 5 WEEKS

[@achromium63]

Honestly I just spent almost $150 on supplies on Amazon and that’s everything I need to do my own nails which literally would cost me $150 alone so I’m excited to do them my own! Because recently I haven’t liked my nails and they would over buff them

[@Gurkenkind-]

Which one did you buy from amazon?

[@mmaximick]

Girl. Same. I just purchased CAD 190! 🙄

[@shaktisoul93]

I just bought $150 worth of supplies so I can do my own nails as well. Tired of shody jobs at the salons, I always leave with bloody cuticles and chonky nails wondering why I paid $75 for such a crappy job. I'm excited to get started, and play around with colors ane textures and become a DIY naik girlie!

[@Itz-pe]

Got my for CAD 80. So happy 😊

Okay!!! I came back to say I watched the video about a month ago, followed the steps with other products to the T, primed the tips as well and applied the tips leaving a small space between the cuticle and the nail. The filled the space with BIAB, cleaned the cuticule area with acetone and proceeded with the color. My nails are on now +4 weeks… this is the first time I try gel X nails and there is no pop offs or lifting at all whatsoever. Thank you very much for your instructions.

[@JanetteShaw-wr2rj]

You do a fantastic job! Im a retired nail tech and only just tried my first set of gelx. You do a MUCH job better than I did. Your tips and info are perfect and correct. Your french painting is spot on! Your vid is just as good as, if not better than pro tutorials. So impressed!! 😍

[@kiwiwooq]

Kaylie you inspired me to do my nails at home. I watched all your videos and started doing them. It's been three weeks since I started doing it on my own. Just yesterday I finished doing my nails. It came out really good. I followed one of your tutorials 😂 luv ya❤

I went out and bought a whole nail kit because of you! My first came out so cute!

[@abikyy]

how much was yr total?

[@officiallychelsy]

@@abikyy depends, there are so many cheap ones but make sure they work well, beetles is a really good brand and affordable

[@beauuby]

@@abikyy mine was under 100, the set I bought was 40 and it had a lot of nail polish, tools, decorations, and the uv lamp (the one for your entire hand). separately I had to buy a nail lamp for only 1 finger, nail glue, cuticle remover, and nail tips, (I also bought other stuff like gem stones becuase I didn’t like the ones that came with the set).

[@abikyy]

@@beauuby what brand?

[@urfavedumblonde]

@@abikyyI got 42$ of beetles sets on Amazon! i got a single finger LED lamp w/ the extensions, and files + glue and etc. I also got a color set, and blooming gel for designs! i tried my first full set recently, and it’s been on for around a week! i didn’t do the tips she used so I have had to redo some! ill update u

Never had a better job at a salon! They’re perfect! Thank you.

I literally just started watching your videos last night. Feel in love with the way you do your nail videos. Pls do moreeeee!!

[@yana.mp4]

Thank you kayli for getting me into gel x nails!! 🥰 I've been following your videos to learn and my nails last 4 weeks (they'd last longer but I take them off cos of the regrowth)

[@zb1gnwk]

I really love this vid cause it reminds me of the first ever vid i ever saw of yours, i love your vids so much they bring me comfort and joy never stop making videos kayli!!!!

[@user-oi9ej8bk4v]

I was wondering why my nails popped off in less than a week and the polish itself would get indentations even with a top coat. Turns out I only had the tiny UV cure lamp so they weren’t getting fully cured! I purchased a proper one & now they look just like salon quality! I’ll have to update this comment in a week or few and see how long they last! My next step is tackling the cuticle area. I keep flooding it with glue or top coat bc it’s hard to see how much you’ve put on or if you’ve missed a spot.

[@s4frina]

hey! how's it going now are the nails still intact?

[@sleepygrlfrnd]

whew good thing you didnt get contact dermatitis!! so lucky 😅

[@dragnfli08]

I had already been doing my nails for about a year now but this was still life changing advice, thank you!

[@kait_webby]

filling in the gap w gel might be the best hack ever!!! thank you ✨💕

[@Maichang713]

Gel polish or acrylic gel ??

[@paigejohnson9201]

love this! i’m excited to try the gel overlay technique bc i’ve really struggled with sealing the cuticle in the past. thanks kayli!

[@alliepratherhairmakeuparti205]

That is not how you get contact dermatitis. Contact dermatitis is when your skin comes in contact with an substance your body may be slightly allergic to; it then causes a rash. Gel can not seep through your nail into your skin. It can get onto your skin AROUND your nail but not under.

[@javigunda5399]

Gel contact dermatitis occurs when you come in contact with the uncured gel over a longer period of time. If you keep getting it on your skin you might get allergic over time. Some never have a reaction, and some are allergic from the first contact. If the nails are thin enough, i believe it can seep through the nail which is why its so important to cure all the way!

[@Mindaaayroxs]

you make doing a French tip so easy! I feel I could do this.. I'm going to try on my next gel x application :) Thanks for the video. Keep up the beautiful work!

[@izzyk229]

you've helped me so much, I can tell a difference after taking your tips! I think a video showing all your nail supplies would be super helpful (if you haven't already)!!

[@CRS980]

I recently switch from liquid gel nail glue to solid gel glue and that’s helped my nails last so much longer too. Plus I find it much easier to use and to wipe away any mistakes

im so glad you mention developing contact dermitis! i sadly developed it and found a way around using gels without reacting. but noone mentioned it when i first started!

[@jauntyjackie367]

Omg I got it too!! What did you do to work around it? I have so many nail supplies bc I did them for like a year but now I can’t use any of it 😢

[@nutellakookie]

@@jauntyjackie367 i have to be super careful not to touch the gel, so i use gloves at all time until everything has been cured. Basically i just paint falsies, cure them and then glue them on with nail glue. (Once everything is cured you can touch them with no problems)!!

[@jessicayoung4578]

@@jauntyjackie367 not original commenter but i use hema free gels! i like sundara nails, esp their gel glue for tips! i find that if im using tips, i can usually use regular gel on top for the nail art and stuff, but def experiment for you!

I LOVE gel extension nails so much because they last 2+ weeks for me! However, I recently switch to Apres since I wanted to “level up” my nail products, but I *swear* they only last a week for me 😭 I have no idea what I’m doing wrong because I’ve done gel extension for an entire year and never had problems. I make sure to properly prep my cuticles, dehydrate, etch the gel extensions and yet they don’t last. Does this happen to anyone else? If anyone has recommendation, please let me know!
