“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!

Time, trial and error, and knowledge all have a cost. For this to be given for free really is amazing. Thank you!

[@mariafitts]

Another very very educational video, one day I’m going to be an expert, everybody is gonna wanna get their nails by me. Thank you Young bros for all these helpful videos

[@GeoffreyLaureate]

Greg, I sincerely want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Yes, I know on the one hand (ha!), we're simply talking about nails - an unnecessary but fun aesthetic accessory. But on the other, we're talking art, creativity, passion, intensity, craftsmanship, connection/(ph)bonding with other people, building a business or a legacy or a life! 💜 Your exquisite techniques and meticulous details really get me excited and give me true hope that I can master these skills. Thank you, dear sir. 👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿👏🏻🎉

[@cecilialopez1001]

You are seriously my favorite teacher

[@anitataco6488]

Only a master craftsman can make their craft look so easy anyone could do it. It's not easy, you are just very skilled at what you do! On the other hand, (crap, no pun intended) with realistic expectations, I see where one can learn to do their own nails from your videos and do them better than most local places will. Thank you for providing these free! So many professionals in the beauty world scoff at DIY'ers & refuse to offer advice. People are always going to try to do things on their own whether it's to save money, time, or out of boredom. I am a huge advocate of sharing proper knowledge in the pursuit of harm reduction. I see it most often in the hair world than anywhere else.

[@nthatisimolefe4878]

Each time he says "OK" I kept on nodding my head😂❤😢. Very informative, thank you

[@babyfacebkz]

Honestly love watching you guys. I really look forward to working with your kits in the future. I have mainly been training with hard gel and poly gels. I have worked with acrylic once and that was when I was 13 years old, curious on how to do my own nails. I am 30 years old now and I should have realized sooner this was the career I really wanted but hey at least I know now. Thank you so much for your videos!

[@Rebeccamunro1]

Thankyou Greg! Teaching with passion and enthusiasm and of course crazy skills!! 👌🏾🙌🏾 It’s sooo infectious! …I love how you generously give your knowledge back to us in the nail community, and such a genuinely nice guy with it! 🥰 Please don’t ever stop! 🙏🏽. Ps. I hope you’re feeling better from that wee cough soon. Big Love from the UK ✌🏽❤️ xx

[@iamthechatthugminion8561]

I am starting and found you guys. So far you have posted about every question I have! Thanks!

[@DZenitram23]

I hope Habibs brother steps on gum today! "don't worry if it doesn't look perfect" he always makes it look prefect! BUT I will keep trying to set my self up for success and perfection, thanks for tips!

[@cmayo5659]

Lol. If only..... practice makes perfect, that's for sure! That I can see 😁 I don't practice enough, I only do my own nails & my practice hand Shelly. One day I will lay acrylic like Habibs brother! (And not wish him to step in gum lol 🤣😉😘)

[@DZenitram23]

@@cmayo5659 I do full sets on my wife every 2 weeks but still not enough practice so I made my own wood nail stand and I practice more art than acrylic eventually I will get better

[@cmayo5659]

@@DZenitram23 I find myself practicing art too! I like nail art, I enjoy painting characters! I am going to attempt a scene across the 4 fingers. I am not so sure I can transfer the vision I have in my head into my nails....only one way to know!

[@KangInSoon808]

Your truly the best teacher!! You cover all the bases of the process. You have a great way to explain everything clearly. Thank you for all these years of videos!

Thank you 👍

obrigada 🇧🇷💙

[@tlomax2768]

Excellent tips

[@lamar1822]

I love your brush Greg, but I keep getting monomer on the black coating of the handle and it eats it away and makes it sticky and starts to come off. Suggestions?

[@youngnailsinc]

A quick touch up with ManiQ Black or Mission Control Overdrive (Black) will fix the color & a coat of Stain Resistant will seal it! Make sure to cure each layer fully & wipe the tacky surface off the top coat with Swipe

I need this one !! Gels rock too thx u guys amd ladies

[@Happyandaging]

Thank you for your video my nails look atrocious lol you make them look so good and unattainable. How long or how how many hours do you think it’ll take to get good at it thank you so much for your help. 😊

[@youngnailsinc]

It's hard to say. Everyone is different, but it take everyone time and practice.

[@satinderkaur158]

🥰😘

[@darlinnikki7688]

Great video. Where did you get the practice hand from?

[@youngnailsinc]

It's ours, available on our website, youngnails.com

[@ambrag2cute358]

Can you sculpt on a natural long nail to just give it more length?

[@youngnailsinc]

When sculpting, we generally recommend clipping down the free edge to get the proper structure as well as form fit. However, it is possible to sculpt out from the natural nail.

[@mariahjane7969]

Hey Greg I wantto take the sculpting class on the 23rd and I need to know what expectations of products I need to have to participate.

[@youngnailsinc]

I would reach out to [e-mail] and he can help you out.

[@livealittle2397]

Should we be changing out the arbor band for every client?

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes, that is something that can not be sanitized/disingected and needs to be changed for every client.

[@livealittle2397]

Thank you very much 😁

[@mariafitts]

So how do we finish it? Nail cardboard file or drill sanding. ?

[@youngnailsinc]

You can use both. We like to shape and remove bulk with our e-file and then finish file with a hand file.

[@mariafitts]

@@youngnailsinc excellent tip. Thank you

[@gtran852]

Why are you leaving such a small viewing area???

These videos are taken straight from Greg's Instagram lives he does which is why the video is in portrait

I’m just a hobby nail chick. I can do other ppl’s nails and they look great. I do mine and it looks like crap.
