“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!

Still working up the courage to use my YoungNails gel kit this helps!!! All of the hard gel videos on this channel does 😊

[@DPNAILZIT]

I love when Habib puts in nail work. 🤗

[@Lilliana3]

I love the hard gels. For some reason, I can use them far better than acrylics. I want to get your pink and peach gel base. Love ALL your products!! And thank you soooo, soooo much for those great sales! ❤❤

[@kathytarman2302]

Great job Habib. You really do great nails. Thank you for letting us watch you learn.

[@rowenatalie29]

I truly appreciate this video. For many years I've been scared to deal with builder gel bc I've seen other tutorials that weren't as specific as this one and I got lots of anxiety in trying to learn to do them. But with this video it helps.. thank you.

[@dear_nail-ary]

I must say, this is the most quiet I've EVER seen him! Lol - great job!

[@KingsMom831]

Love listening/watching Tracy teach!❤

[@Rose-inspirations]

Now I'm so happy that I ordered a full set of tube gels ... It's arriving tonight 😁

[@MadameMoodysNails]

I literally cannot wait to be able to try the tubes ❤ y’all make it look incredibly easy! 😮

[@youngnailsinc]

They are! We hope you enjoyed this video on hard gel overlays.

[@kstarbar]

For real??? I literally JUST put this into the KZbin search bar last night! Yay. 😊❤

[@l1quidbeatz46]

I have only taught myself hard gel so far. I love the Synergy tubes!!! I love being able to deposit the majority of the product from the tube then using my brush to just feather around the cuticle and sidewall.

[@lorrieholsten2521]

Love all of you guys! ❤

[@LeilaLSwift]

I love how he said I'm amazing 😍

[@sharmc5307]

"Don't go scooping the crap out of it" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@sharmc5307]

Words to live by

[@mimmig]

Thank YOU for gel nails...more of them ...hi from germany

[@jacquelinedimattia774]

Habib is really getting good at thiy😊

[@chachimarie1790]

I needed this ! I struggle so hard with hard gel

[@JanetJenkins]

Trying to decide between soft builder gel vs hard gel for damaged, bendy nails that curve downward and have a natural 'C' curve as they grow longer. I like the idea of hard gel but concerned because I have somewhat flexible nails.

[@youngnailsinc]

Typically for damaged nails we recommend acrylic and it's acts as sort of cast to the nail.

[@fitfournails]

You did great Habib ❤

[@GINNails]

Wow Habib is on his way to be a skilled nail tech ,he did so so Good ,Habib Congratulations keep up the fantaatic job ,Plus you have such Great and Awesome teachers ,Tracy and Greg 🥰🥰🥰🫶👍👍👍

[@audreylopez3851]

I love the tube gel

[@aletheabennett144]

Love this video!! First time I’ve heard of gel in a bottle. My natural nails are very thin. 😢

[@nataliia048]

Thank you for showing the technic of hard gel application. The only thing why I would not repeat after you is because the surface is uneven. It does not look like a normal healthy nail. Maybe because it is for beginners, at least to start, or just the way the loght shines, well, thanks anyway)

[@user-gn1tx8of7r]

what solution are you using: for example acrylic powder and monomer. what do you use with hard gel and poly gel?

[@youngnailsinc]

With hard gel you don't need to use anything besides the hard gel product itself and then curing it in a light. As for polygel, we can't speak on it as it is not a product we manufacture.

[@anettedesire8824]

Quick question what did you apply on the nail before you added the gel? It looks shiny is that the protein bond or something like that?

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes, we applied protein bond and the synergy base gel before building the nail.

[@samuelkareri]

Good job 👍

[@zarasnails_]

Can we use in polish bottle instead ? Could it give a thick apex?

[@youngnailsinc]

What product are you wanting to use exactly? This video we are using hard gel.

[@brendajones5989]

I admit I love the hard gels more. The natural nails do not curl away like they do with acrylics. I have one question. Putting hard gel as your base and pink or peach. Its it okay to finish with acrylics to harden the nail structure or it just as hard? Thanks much.❤

[@youngnailsinc]

Hard gel is just as hard as acrylic. Also acrylic on hard gel doesn’t do as well as hard gel on acrylic.

[@brendajones5989]

Thank you. I guess I'll stick with the hard gel. For the reason of no peeling of natural nails. Thanks again 😊

[@LG-gu8cj]

Is the prep for this in a different video? I’ve exhausted my builder gel attempting different Prep and it never stays on . :/

[@youngnailsinc]

Here is prep for acrylic. After applying protein bond then you would go into the base gel video in the hard gel series. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpC5mnSslryMmc0si=5nvz9RfiTg_aUrhJ

[@jumielopez]

Where can I get the tube

[@youngnailsinc]

All our products are available on our website, youngnails.com.

[@Amtvenom]

Do you use protein bond under the tube gel? And is there a heat spike?

[@katrinasheets2997]

It's always best to use Protein Bond or some type of primer before applying gel so that it adheres really well and you don't have to worry about lifting. The Precision Applicators are their second generation gels, and have virtually no heat spike. If you're very sensitive to heat spikes you can try curing on low heat mode or hold your hands just outside of the light for 30 seconds and then go in for a full cure. Applying a thin layer of gel first also helps (the thicker the layer the more heat it produces to cure). Once you have a thin layer on the nail you shouldn't feel the heat any longer.

[@Tristyjoe]

Is there more product in the jars than the tubes??

[@youngnailsinc]

The precision applicators have about the same amount of product as the 60g jars.

[@tinanandlal5290]

Young Nails I need your help! I used super nail monomer with saviland acrylic (black) and it didn’t harden it was like rubber even after 15 minutes. What did I do wrong?

[@youngnailsinc]

Unfortunately, we can’t speak on other products as we do not test them. We would recommend either asking the company for advice on how to use their products or you can ask in our Facebook group if anyone has had similar experience with the product you are using.

[@Beautifularethefeet7]

Does anyone else feel a huge heat spike when using this product ? How can we fix it ?

[@youngnailsinc]

If you are feeling those heat spikes, it may be that you are using thicker layers of product, which can produce more heat. Try applying less product or using the “low heat” mode on our lamp. In this mode, it will begin curing slower & then the power of the lamp will increase to fully cure. You can also start by curing the nails just outside the light for 20-30 seconds & then place them fully under the light to complete the cure without the heat spikes. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRWyvCVP/

#youngnails what is the difference between a normal gel polish service to shellac

[@youngnailsinc]

Shellac was originally just a brand name for one company's gel polish line. It has become a generic term for gel polish. This is similar to how Kleenex has become the generic term for all facial tissues. Our gel polish lines are ManiQ and Go Time. ManiQ is a three step system with a Base, Color and Top Coat. Go Time is a one step that does not require a base or top coat. If you are working over an acrylic enhancement, you can go right to the Color and Top Coat without a Base or just the Color if you are using Go Time.

[@dawnholyoke-gordon809]

This is not build gel? How do I know the difference?

[@youngnailsinc]

Here is a video on all of our hard gels: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnfcnJiYa6x2aLM

[@palestar828]

Is this builder gel?

[@youngnailsinc]

It’s hard gel

[@palestar828]

@youngnailsinc thank you for your reply! However, I wish I knew the difference between the two??? (Completely new to this)
