“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!

[@mayac.1345]

Question!!!!!: how do you finish it??? Does acrylic have its own top coat or do you choose whether lacquer polish or gel with their respective topcoats?

[@youngnailsinc]

You can use either a regular or gel top coat over acrylic. It's your preference. If you are going to paint any color on top then yes you would use the top coat that goes with the type of color you are using, regular with regular and gel with gel.

[@mayac.1345]

@@youngnailsinc thank you thank you. I'm learning a lot from your channel. I'm trying to learn acrylics from scratch. My school seems focused on client service so practicing on special nail techniques is placed on the side

[@nancya9402]

I had to learn that the hard way on doing my own nails. Watching manyvideos and not realizing why when i do them and when i get them done professional they come back more torn and sore. So i am glad I learned to and happy to say i have family that enjoy my partner Work too. Wish i can get my license but i am 40 already😢

[@youngnailsinc]

You are never to old. If getting your license is something you want, then you can definitely do it. 😊

[@mandicoleman7433]

I still want to see Greg do a full set on himself!!!!

[@Angies_.nails_]

I love Tuesday nail school 🏫 😌

[@Fireymom01]

Fantastic! Thank you for your help

[@youngnailsinc]

Glad it helped!

[@LifewithRaisha]

Good morning Greg

[@Whiznailcreations]

YN... What makes your practice hand better than any other practice hand?

[@youngnailsinc]

Here's a great little video to show you what makes our trainer hand different from a lot of the other brands on the market. instagram.com/tv/CWw9CncrplW/?

[@FairyUmeko323]

The other hands are bulky and this looks to be a lot more natural looking

[@joslynnford7742]

Never get enough of Greg’s instruction ❤ 💅 🔥 tysm

[@joslynnford7742]

Not me fantasizing 💭 about a Valentines 💌 Day full set from YoungNails 💅

[@emilywyatt9340]

I couldn't get the tips to stick to my dummy hand I have the same one as on the video. Starting nail tech training.

[@youngnailsinc]

Are you talking about acrylic tips or the tips that come with the trainer hand?

[@emilywyatt9340]

@@youngnailsinc The acrylic tips. Have a Saviland kit.

[@youngnailsinc]

You have to hold it longer because there is no body heat speeding up the drying. You could also try adhering them with fiber gel instead of glue. Just make sure to remove the shine from the inside of the tip as well because gel adheres better to a textured surface.

[@obenflorence1002]

I am a biginner nail tech happy to subscribe to your channel it is healping me alot i am greatful sir Greg

[@youngnailsinc]

Thanks for the sub! Feel free to ask any questions you have. 😊

[@obenflorence1002]

Sir what happens when you don't have primer and your gel it's too thick

[@traceymaxwell1486]

Thank you so much for such great teachings, this was my prayer answered , as i have been going though so many tutorials, teachings, and stumbled on your teachings. One question, does it make a huge diffrence in the type or brand of Acrylic powder, or monomer, one uses , as i just cannot seem to get that soft flowing texture. I am following your instructions very carefully though, and I have learnt so, so much from you. Thank you God bless.

[@youngnailsinc]

❤️

[@Nailcarebarbados]

I was gifted the signature #12 brush, monomer and 5 acrylic powder from YN... it was AMAZING (for me as i am a new nail tech) to see a huge difference between a quality brush and product!!! Im using mia secret which is amazing too, but the kiara sky is 👎👎👎👎. I really love your product. I got to do a nail set soon ❤❤❤

[@BD323.]

❤❤❤

[@katlynmcc100]

Love this video! I actually had no idea why my hands were shaking, but now I know! As a side note, while I’m watching my husband goes, “is that joe Rogan teaching you nails??” Lol now I can’t unhear it!

[@dramaticnailsbyjasmine2776]

😊 I enjoyed watching your video 🫶🏿 As a beginner nail tech I’m just now mastering the perfect & smooth application 💚 I do have a real time application video up on my channel 💅 This inspired me to keep going 😍

[@nailgeegee5893]

Thank you for this ❤

[@bnailed6035]

I have always taken away from your videos that without a great foundation to build from is the most important part of Arylic application

Hi, I was wondering what colour acrylic you used in the beginning? I really like that pink, I think it would look so good as a nail bed for French nails. Thanks

[@youngnailsinc]

Cover pink

[@barbarapearson1138]

thank you, appreciated

[@sofiatais7393]

Hi! My acrylic nails keep breaking in the middle! I need advice please 🙏🏻

[@youngnailsinc]

Are they breaking where the natural nail ends? If so, here is a great video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lX6TpKh4mKt7hJY

[@lourdesgalarza9910]

Thank you! ❤

[@youngnailsinc]

Happy to help! We hope this video on prep, application and finishing was helpful for you.

[@JoJo-yu2hj]

That is water or oil

[@youngnailsinc]

It’s monomer.

[@quicknailz]

Thank you thank you!!

[@Prettybadhaitian]

Amazing !

[@victoriagrow30]

Thank you so very much for all of y’all’s help with these techniques and fundamentals! We all appreciate all of the time and hours you guys spend doing these video classes for us! 🩷🩷🩷

[@Tailored_Talons]

Can we discuss e-files quickly? I saw a popular nail technician on Instagram telling people to use their e-files at 15,000 - 20,000 RPM for cuticle work, specifically prep. I have NEVER used my file that high, and I would appreciate some more information/feedback on this from some other techs to clarify. Opinions/thoughts are welcome from all.

[@youngnailsinc]

For prep, we recommend keeping your efile between 3-6k rpms and use a medium sanding band or diamond cuticle bit. Higher rpms can quickly lead to over filing of the nail.

[@Tailored_Talons]

@@youngnailsinc Thank you!

[@theblackmimosa888]

Greg you taught me Acrylic! Even though I'm still learning, I always come back to YN channel 😆 I'll see you in class in April AND June
