YN NAIL SCHOOL - HOW TO APPLY GEL OVER A TIP

Watch Greg apply hard gel over a glued nail tip.

[@FatManPhoto]

Due to the crazy world right now I have recently started doing my wife’s nails since she can’t go to the salon right now. Been watching a lot of you videos to pick up the knowledge to do them nice and safe. Thank you and keep up the good work.

[@hollaatthekid1796]

Wow! Thats so cool! I am learning for myself. Imma see if my husband would be interested in learning. AMAZING Idea!

[@maddi8760]

Awww, that’s so sweet☺️

[@daliadomijan4058]

WooW thats amazing!

[@arli4406]

What? Wow! 😮

[@sheila7909]

I bit my nails when I was 6 and stopped at 70 years old I am very proud of myself

[@Myrtle_stara]

🤭🤭🤣

[@Myrtle_stara]

Looking forward to stopping

[@kerry2904]

Well done!!

[@shammy8127]

So inspirational ♥️!! It’s never too late! Good for you 🥰

[@231jackdaniels]

As a fellow nail biter I now know exactly how you feel!! Proud of you!!

[@elzannenel4400]

Definitely gonna try that "split method" next time I do gel nails. Fascinating, and it makes sense. Thanks 👌

N. In m.j hmmm jo

[@forevermore5118]

It definitely a different way but makes a lot of sense and will save me a few minutes of holding my fingers upside down to get an apex!

[@christianluz602]

Omgoodness I'm so grateful for these videos the nail community takes care of eachother, periodt. Love the support and everyone's ALWAYS cheering eachother along. Sharing ideas and tips... I love 💅 ❤

[@dianeferre1273]

This is THEE Absolutely BEST Gel over tips Vid EVER! This has helped me IMMENSELY as I do my own nails... (Theyre Beautiful) & Im very happy w/them 😊

[@youngnailsinc]

Awesome!! ❤

[@ssc4153]

I know this is an older video...but WOW Greg...that technique about dividing the gel up was brilliant! I have never seen anyone do this technique and I just have to say it's brilliant! Another technique I'm swiping from you! 🧡💛💚💙💜💗

[@youngnailsinc]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Hooverpixie24]

So glad I found this. Currently started doing my daughters nails vs the salon, because it’s safer, and costs less money, and anymore, they don’t do cuticles or manicures, and I can. This was super helpful!!

[@youngnailsinc]

So happy you enjoyed the video!

[@cmayo5659]

The YN library is AMAZING! Talk about a nail encyclopedia! Coming back to rewatch this ..... I love acrylic, its my enhancement of choice! I have all this gel....I think its time to learn how to apply it. ♥️

[@youngnailsinc]

It really is! We’re glad you took the time to watch this video on how to apply gel over a tip.

[@staceyboyden5079]

This is why you guys are the best! That tip about creating a well to help with heat spikes, then to allow to build your apex, its gonna make me fall in love with gel again, as it what has been putting me off with gel but im gonna give this ago. Thank you all for your amazing channel, its so appercaited that you guys share so much, cant tell ya how much your videos help xx

[@alfiebutton2009]

Love the splitting idea.. definitely something I'm going to practice 💕

[@hollaatthekid1796]

That split , wow! I believe that just changed my whole gel game, THANK YOU!!!

[@Aderpay]

Wow! I should of watched this video before doing gel nails. I had a hard time trying to even out the gel onto my nails. Definitely going to try the split method on my next set of gel nails! Thanks for the tips! It’s very helpful!

[@stlqt09]

Another great teaching session! I truly do appreciate this channel💖 THANK YOU💖

[@youngnailsinc]

stlqt09 💗💗💗 thank you for watching!!!!

[@jessijacobs8]

Seriously so amazing to watch a guy do nails!! My cousin is an Ambassador for Young Nails in Cape Town South Africa and she does the most amazing nail art!!! Great product you guys have 🙌🙌🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@youngnailsinc]

Sweet

[@shebanayah1]

🙌🏽👍🏽🤣👍🏽🙌🏽 Time & Time again I just love watching you guy's work & the way you put the salon finish on it by topping it off with the oil finish makes clear nail polish look so 80's 🤣

[@ashleythurgood5068]

I loved every bit of this video!!!😩❤️❤️he explained step by step 🙌🏼🙌🏼exactly what I was looking for ✨

[@youngnailsinc]

Ashley Thurgood Thank you!!

[@OTseven]

I'm in school. 2nd time watching this vid. Soooo helpful. I'm comforted and gaining surety bit by bit. Thank you.

[@rheaglover1501]

Thanks so much. I'm learning a lot from you guys. I recently enrolled at the Toni and guy academy here in Erie PA. Only to be let down by not having enough instructors to teach in the evening. It's convenient for me a working mother who does want to put the hustle as a legit businesses. But in the right way. So now I have to wait. But instead of being real with me. The call that was made was said that there were not enough students. Bullshit. We all work and can juggle school too. But y'all got me. So thank you YounNails

[@youngnailsinc]

So happy to hear you're enjoying the content

[@breianevillafana1018]

That split method was genius and made the whole thing look so simple.

[@ninachege6100]

I love your technique...i just started the nail tech course yesterday..super excited...am going to be practising a lot with your techniques...thanks for sharing

[@chanaiac.1135]

Wow so happy I stumbled onto this video. Want to try my hand at doing my nails myself because I keep overpaying nail techs here in New York City for the product to lift 3 days later

[@youngnailsinc]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!

[@bryrayne9666]

Thank you for this video!! I work with acrylic but I'm just starting out with gel and this was so helpful. Greg, amazing as always. :)

[@youngnailsinc]

Awesome, thank you for watching

[@dawnearl3244]

Thank you so very much for the help.....you are nail young nail guardians !! ❤️😍 xx

[@OTseven]

Wow. And other folks said it couldn't be done 😅 once again, you teach like no one else! Love and thx to you all❤

[@michaelavalek2649]

Loved how in depth this was! I’m definitely going to try this! I just moved to a small apartment and so acrylic isn’t really an option as I don’t want it to smell up the place. I’ve used I.b.d brand gel before and prepped my nails as I always do but for some reason some would come off the next day if I knocked it against something (never had that issue while using acrylic) or while I was doing my nails and started filing them I noticed lifting, like there would be a white area and it was lifted it was so frustrating and I haven’t used the gel since. So hopefully with this new information it’ll help me.

[@cadiacaine]

Very nice n smooth instruction! U are a very good teacher😎

[@lishasmells]

Thanks for posting! Just in time... I'm waiting on my order of synergy gels and very excited to get back to gel after 8 years. Nice to have a refresher. Can we have more synergy videos please?

[@_heatheryvonne_]

Divine Solstice there are a bunch of synergy gel videos in the playlists on their channel.

[@jacquelinedimattia774]

Yeah.... Back to the basics! Thanks Greg 😀😉👍

[@jaids_place]

Great tutorial Greg 😉 Thank you again Young Nails 💕💕

[@youngnailsinc]

Judy Hoffmann ty!

[@kristinebaker5477]

Great information 😀 Thank you for sharing 😍💜

[@abbyellis2623]

Can you make a video or insert a spot in a video that breaks down pricing of what a set of nails would cost? Like what Greg or Tracy would charge for a set of nails you show, why, and break down cost? I think that would help nail techs know what to charge, and us consumers to understand what its worth. ❤

[@tamsterskrazyworld7477]

Can you use dipping powder with the gel builder? Will it create a bonding issue. I have different color dipping powders. Thank you so much.

[@lyndilyndi3490]

Tamster's Krazy World I do all the time

[@d.s.28]

Great video.Straight to the point and easy to understand

[@capriciousspark4485]

My word, I just discovered you guys in the horde of female nailtubers. Don’t get me wrong but it’s amazing to see men do this. Must be heaven to be married to y’all 😉

[@jloveley6063]

Thank you so much for sharing your techniques. I wish I had seen your video before I tried this last night😂. My nails came out good, but with your technique they will be 🔥 next time!

[@youngnailsinc]

Nice! Happy you enjoyed it

[@urszulazukowska1200]

[@davidkloster8961]

@@carolcharles4869 Carol they have a video already about that. I watched it tonight actually. It is on their Nail Biz talk show I think that's what they call it. If you search here on KZbin you will find it. Tracy's starting full set price starts @ $90 & goes up accordingly from there. Not sure what Greg charges but probably very comparable to her pricing. I mean if they work in the same salon. Which I am guessing they do. I am new to their videos. So I am unaware of all of their details. However I've been watching them non stop now for a couple of weeks Lol I hope this information that I've given helps you out a bit & answers the questions that you are seeking. God bless

[@cyounesful]

Thank you very much, you explain all very clear, easy to follow.

[@Anon_E_Muss]

I have such a hard time applying nail tips so I use forms. I would really like to attempt this method as it seems to save time filing the shape. Gonna give it a go one of these days, thank you.

[@applesandpears]

Can’t wait to do my own nails from Christmas. Everything together is like £40 on Amazon so wish me luck 🤞🏾

[@emz5272]

40 mine costs 130

I Love Natural tips, my favorites 👌👌

[@janecotelos2240]

Perfect! You are the master!! lol

[@xandersmomsamby]

Trying this today so this video was super helpful. I usually use forms but wanted to try tips today.

[@chalawhina]

I would love to see some videos here and there about the products you produce and what they are specifically best for maybe even incorporate that a bit into the videos during the tutorials

[@mygeorge1951]

I'm going to try this. Thanks! 💅🏽

This really had good tips! Thanks

[@krystlehulands9337]

awesome can't wait to try this love it.

[@youngnailsinc]

nice

[@janetcocherell260]

Question....is there a difference in strength and durability between lengthening with a tip vs using a form? I've been under the impression that tips are not as durable because glue breaks down in water, creating a weak spot. Is this true?? Great video! Thank you

[@itsmemaybss7593]

Thanks for the tips 👌💖 i must do it to my nails 😉

[@angelnailsspa6004]

Nice video! I was just wondering what "Swipe" or "Swaib" is ,that you used with your manicure brush

[@isabellesmith4741]

What brand are your tip clippers? I can’t seem to find a decent pair anywhere! They all keep breaking the first time I use them.

[@queentaysha7177]

Never done any nail sets (YET!) and I literally been watching all of your videos excited to get into the nail world thank you for making great videos ! I’m ready to Tackle this lifestyle now

Why protein bond again on top of gel and under the sealer top coat ? Thanks

Hi greg can you do a full set of acrylic tip and overlay please x

[@KayLilia]

Thank you for Sharing

[@misslk84]

Wow great video. I'm still trying to perfect my gel application. Thank you for your fantastic videos.

[@RandomFunStuff101]

Im just starting out with gel nails! Does it waste time to shape the tip as close to the shape they desire or should I wait for that after gel application?

[@simplymarvelous4130]

Thank you so much

[@youngnailsinc]

❤️❤️

[@jasminenash5546]

Love your videos! I have a question: For gel nails that include a false tip, would I have to remove the whole set after the 2-3 weeks and repeat this whole process or am I able to do some kind of infill??

[@youngnailsinc]

As long as you are removing all lift with fills you are fine, but often when using tips there becomes issues where the glue & tip are, so often removal and reapplication is necessary

[@rosana6041]

Thank you Teacher😀💅

[@songofangels777]

Could you help me? I want to go to a salon to get my nails done first (have tips put on because it would be much easier for me) and THEN, can i maintain with gel at home? IOW be able to grow my own nails out? Do i ask for gel or do they do acrylic? thanks!

That base gel is a game changer! There’s nothing like it

[@tekeyahb8367]

I’ve had problems with laying gel but I think it has to do with the product as well. I used ibd and it was terrible. I’ve used gel from wish that stayed longer and wasn’t weak! But the IBD brand is expensive and no good in my opinion. Time to upgrade! Love the vid ❤️

Hey Greg I have a question. Why did you apply protein bond on top of the gel right before you applied the gel top coat?

[@hannahbanana7254]

sharonda aswad do help it stick better and last longer

thanks!! you are the best and i feel you answer me with this video. 😗😗😗😗

[@birjandascilar1858]

Is before applying cuticle oil the best time to begin applying the colour gel client wants on their nails?

[@SupremeQUEEN668]

I always wondered what does that lamp do to the nails besides drying the gel or polish?

[@kristyhodgson2127]

Great thank you great tutorial 😊😊😊

[@youngnailsinc]

Thanks for watching!

[@angelicap.4557]

i love you videos! this was so informative however, im curious to know, if someone wanted, lets say red nails, would you replace the concealer pink colour with a red gel paint? or still use the concealer pink and then the red gel on top ?

[@youngnailsinc]

red gel on top that way removal and reapplication is less of a process

[@angelicap.4557]

@@youngnailsinc on top of concealer pink ?

[@kristaskittykorner2381]

Just got my order! Can’t wait to try it out. Quick question though; when you wipe the nail and “swipe”, are you using a particular product to wipe the nail with?

[@MillexpressionsNails]

They are using the swipe product

[@rozyrositah]

Is that a regular finish gel used at the end? Or one special for that type of application?

[@mabelalvarado4672]

So for hard gel you apply one coat of protein bond instead of two as you would for acrylic?

[@youngnailsinc]

We always recommend 2 coats after prepping the nail

[@DianetteMendez]

What drill bit is used in the beginning? The one you file the nail bed with

[@youngnailsinc]

We always prep with a medium sanding band

[@holliemee7726]

Can I just use normal gel polished over the top if I prep it correctly?

[@kellie5138]

New to doing my own nails and haven't ever used this kind of gel...but the thickness of it makes me scared of heat spikes 😳 the first time i ever used regular gel polish, I used a regular nail polish as a base with very thin coats of gel polish and it burned me SO bad. Now I'm petrified of heat spikes lol

[@crux6331]

If you don’t have experience with an efile? What can you use to remove shine from the nail plate? A buffer?

[@youngnailsinc]

150 grit file, a buffer will leave the nail too smooth
