YN NAIL SCHOOL - HOW TO REMOVE HARD GEL NAILS SAFELY

[@katiakirespect]

I wish I had educators like you in beauty school, it would encourage me to actually get more involved in the nail tech.

[@sashajohnson812]

Wow I learned so much from this channel, wayyyyyyy more than I learned in beauty school

[@VioletIndigo3]

Filing the free edge down to gauge how much you need to take off on top of the nail bed. Great tip. Thank you!

[@christeendonnelly9813]

Works great. I have been soaking off my gel and acrylic until now. Watched your video on how to safely remove acrylics as well. All works great and way less damage to my natural nail. Thanks guys!

[@youngnailsinc]

Awesome!!

[@BetaTestaburger]

This is the best guide how to safely E file gel off of a nail. I feel alot more confident now! Thank you

[@NailDesignsByDenise]

Thanks so much for yet another informative tutorial. E-files can be so tricky, but your explanation gives me confidence that I can safely remove product.

[@catherinemg001]

Learn more here than I ever did in Nail College😊 Thank you

[@tsaiyana]

This was super helpful. Just getting back into doing nails after 10yrs and relearning the different drill bits is a lot

[@kristinebaker5477]

Thank you for showing the correct way to remove all that product and start a fresh new look😍💜 I can’t wait to get my Nail License and sign up for one of your classes😀♥️ You guys are the Best😉

[@youngnailsinc]

Thank You!!

[@tinasnailsandbeauty]

I remember this class sooooooo many years ago conducted by Janelle Kennedy, your awesome educator here in Brisbane Australia, I still use your methods to this day - she rocks as a YN teacher & just as inspirational as you guys are, cheers once again - Tina, Gold Coast Australia :)

[@youngnailsinc]

Thank You!!! 😍😍

[@Rivera__444]

Thanks for the tip Greg. I’ll use it for my next manicure

[@robertaolvera5734]

I have to give you a " 👍" cause you are so good on explaining!!

[@teresabrinkman7484]

You make it all look so damn easy!!

[@cindilu2]

You are such a great instructor, Greg! I love that you show us these techniques on real people, not just trainer hands or tips. It's so much more helpful to me! Question though - what if they don't want to reapply extensions? Do you leave that thin layer of base/gel anyway? What do you recommend to make the nails look good while growing out? *fingers crossed* someone is still monitoring these older vids for comments and questions. Thanks for all you do!

[@youngnailsinc]

you can leave a little product there, or even remove then do a basic mani with some clear polish to give them a little something on their nails. removing nails is kind of like when you remove a cast, she skin underneath isn't damaged it just hasn't been exposed to the elements in a long time, your nail plate is the same. no damage (if removed properly) just a little sensitive at first, so usually a coat of polish is plenty after removal

[@tanisgeorgetti7317]

@@youngnailsinc I have a question for you I’ve got VERY VERY THIN NAILS that peel and fray when I file the edges but I want to get them done I want to grow my nails out so I can have them longer and wanted to know what the best gel to use on my natural nails that won’t damage them but give them strength to grow I was thinking an overlay I can soak off would be the safest! What do you think I should do? Do you have any suggestions on what’s safe to do on my type of nails? I forgot to mention when I have file the surface of them at home to put on fake nails or buff it scares me how thin they feel is there anything I can do about the thickness are their product that will help with growing the thickness?! I’m assuming not but I thought I’d ask

[@JerseyFloGirl]

@@tanisgeorgetti7317Hi! I have the same problem, so when I read your comment I was hoping for a good answer too, but I see that didn't happen. I tried the mani-q fiber gel to put my full cover nail tips on, hoping that will help mine. I just did this a week ago and have not removed my nails yet, but im hoping this will be the help my nails need as I can't go without nails and wait out for them to get healthy lol, but I think using it as an overlay on your natural nail is the intended or primary use for the mani-q fiber gel😉 I saw a video about this for someone that had thin, weak nails. I will update after I remove them😉

[@androniki4022]

I really love your job. Wish to be there to learn from you. I want to ask you if you guys can recommend which drill electric to buy. I want to buy something good and professional. Thanks a lot for your help in advance 😘 Keep going the hard work

[@EveaGornall]

so helpful to know I don’t have to use any acetone! My nailbeds thank you

[@youngnailsinc]

You are so welcome! We’re glad you took the time to watch this video on removing hard gel.

[@GINNails]

That's awesome thanks for the removal tips with the safety bit, rock on 🙌

[@fablefaces3785]

So helpful many thanks. Can you then use acrylic as a fresh set. I have hard gel overlays on my own long almond nails. I’ve stuck with hard gel as I can control how my non-Dom hand looks before curing. Feeling brave to then apply acrylic to that right hand. Would it adhere with a little hard gel base? Many thanks x

[@fablefaces3785]

Control how my dominant hand looks not non-Dom 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes acrylic sticks to anything

[@mariekeheuten5497]

👍🏻love this way to remove the product!!

[@tracigarcia9211]

I love your channel! I learn so much! Thanks for the great tips on removal! I have a question though... be kind people... I haven’t even started nail school yet (I start June 4).... why cut the nail? If the client still wants that shape and length, would you still cut the nail and rebuild?

[@youngnailsinc]

Good Luck in school!!! When extending out the nail, the natural nail will just be in the way. It is easier to shorten the natural nail then apply your forms. However if your client is just wanting an overlay over their natural nail then you would not remove the natural nail.

[@tracigarcia9211]

YoungNailsInc Thank you!

[@lc8332]

Excellent tips for picking up speed

[@kimberlymiller5157]

I definitely was waiting for this video. Was having trouble with this

[@tiffanyms2881]

Hello. I know this is really old but I figured I’d try. So I used YN hard gel on my nails and have decided I want to take them off and do nothing to my nails for a while. I can never seem to differentiate between the clear base layer and my natural nail plate. Last time I filed way too far down and I don’t want to leave ANY product (not even base) on my nail. How do I differentiate between base layer and natural nail so I don’t file off my real nail again?! PLEASE HELP!

[@lilyp8716]

Same with me! Luckily I'm still praying on myself, but my poor nail plates have been injured more often than not 😞

[@tlomax2768]

Another awesome tip 😍😍 Thanks Greg

[@youngnailsinc]

😍😍

[@jennymorales4243]

Like how long should a nail tech be taking to take off gel or acrylic set ? ....i like timing myself 😊💕

[@youngnailsinc]

Depends on if you are removing your product or someone else's. Typically removal is around 15-20 min.

[@marycallan1937]

REALLY good at teaching!!!

[@youngnailsinc]

Thank You!!!

[@Chrissy_loves_animals]

I can’t get my fingers right for nothing!! I have to keep reminding myself because holding your fingers like that while working on your clients help with shaking and it balance it more. Please do a video on how to do it from the beginning. 😘

[@youngnailsinc]

great idea! Will pass it along 😍

[@Chrissy_loves_animals]

YoungNailsInc Thank you sooooo much! 😍 Can’t wait to see it!!

[@jazzzak]

If I just use Build Gel on the nails with a non gel top and base coat, can I soak it off instead of an electric file?

[@youngnailsinc]

Don Kolczak Any of the gel's in our Synergy line have to be filed off, they are not a soak-able gel ❤️

[@tyzo0608]

Great tip, thank you.

[@lizg8880]

Would I be able to hand file off the product? I haven't purchased a e-file yet, I really wanted to feel comfortable with a hand file before e-file. But I do feel comfortable purchasing one now if necessary.

[@youngnailsinc]

Yes you could

[@lizg8880]

@@youngnailsinc what file grit would you recommend? Is 100/180 ok?

[@alexandrahill9280]

These vids are amazing. I’m just starting out doing my own hard gels- is it possible to file them off by hand? I don’t have an e-file yet.

[@youngnailsinc]

yea you can, will just take a lot longer

[@lindajackson8527]

Very good instruction!

[@youngnailsinc]

Thank you!

[@Fare.co-op]

Thanks I appreciate it

[@dkirk6489]

How often should a customer do a fresh set?

[@TGreen89]

This is a good question.

[@becs1990]

D Kirk I usually have my clients do a new set at least 2 times a year one in January(new year, new nails ) and then around June(for the summer) :)

[@VioletIndigo3]

Me personally, before the tip grows out pointing too downward making the nails look like actual cat claws. No amount of filing can fix that but a fresh new set. Some clients prefer that look though. Me, eek.

[@belamourbeauty]

If you sculpt then you don't need to

[@divm8559]

Thanks. what speed of efile is recommended for fast and safe removal of gel.

What is your nail drill brand

[@LiveLifeBeautifullySD]

How would I get it off if it’s on my real nail and not a tip? I don’t want to cut my natural nail off.

[@JaneyBloggins]

Thank you guys!!!

[@youngnailsinc]

😍😍

[@Sanss086]

Can you apply acrylic even if there’s gel residue?

[@youngnailsinc]

If it is hard gel, it's best to remove all of the gel since acrylic doesn't bond well to the non porous surface of a hard gel. If it is gel polish, a small amount of residue should be ok, but it's always best to apply the acrylic to a clean, prepped natural nail since acrylic is designed to bond to the keratin protein in the nail, not gel polish.

[@meecheongkim3980]

What type of bits are you using to remove hard gel?

[@youngnailsinc]

We use our coarse safety bit, x-cut or tornado bit.

The safety bit is coarse carbide

[@Tyrathetyrant144k]

How many rpm do you use for removal so it doesn’t burn ?

[@youngnailsinc]

11,000-16,000 rpms for removing product. If you are feeling a burn then you might be staying in the same spot for too long. applying too much pressure or your bit may be dull.

[@stellaky]

What if we don't want a new application? Do we remove it all?

[@youngnailsinc]

Nope not necessary

[@divm8559]

Which outlet can i purchase these bits in Dubai?

[@youngnailsinc]

Mena Region Exclusive Distributor, Azb Ltd. [e-mail]

[@johanarivera5042]

Amazing 😁😁

[@melb3136]

Why can't this gel be soaked off?

[@youngnailsinc]

Hard gel is non porous meaning it doesn't allow liquid to pass through it so you cannot soak it off.

[@jenoflaherty3134]

Beautiful job,. Xxx

[@youngnailsinc]

Thank you!!

[@HamsterLife_EnglishLearning]

Remembering to let your nails breathe between hard nail sets for at least a few weeks is best.

[@youngnailsinc]

Hi Jude, nails don't actually breathe air, they receive their nutrients and oxygen from your blood not the air. They key is going to someone that is taking care of your nails and not damaging them. If they are taken care of there is no need to take a break in between.
