Reading some of the comments, do not change the speed and detail of your videos, It is real quality and very informative. People who are interested in doing nails properly or are already professional techs like myself will understand why the video is this long. Each step is important to get perfection! 😊

The first time I used gel polish on my nails didn’t go so well, the next day the polish was peeling off even after using the Light the polish was still wet a little bit, so last night I came up with a idea to try the “Clear Fast Gel which is just a normal polish but has a sticky base to it, i took the shine off the nails and then I painted the gel polish on I cured it under the light for 60s and used the fast clear gel and also cured that for 60s two time and the fast clear gel polish will dry in seconds. I would highly recommend this it works. If you are anyone that experienced this or if you experienced it many times I would definitely highly recommend this method 😘

@calichef1962 6 жыл бұрын

That is truly a PERFECT gel polish application! I watched some other video last night that _claimed_ to be the "perfect" method, but she left a 3 millimeter unpolished border all the way around her cuticles, sidewalls and all the way to the LONG tips! I couldn't believe how ghastly it looked when she was done! Of course the comments were about 95% negative and she had the nerve to JUSTIFY leaving that much space around her cuticles and sidewalls! It rather looked like she had polished her nails in front of a firing squad, ready to fire if she got any polish on her skin. It was crazy. If she were my manicurist I'd fire her! On the other hand, if YOU were my manicurist I'd NEVER leave, my butt would be in you chair every 2 to 3 weeks come hell or high water, and I'd talk you up on Yelp! and every other form of social media out there. Your attention to detail makes YOU a GREAT manicurist!

One thing I wanted to ask was about using the dry top coat. I find sometimes this cracks on top of the gel polish on the natural nails. Because it is quite a hard top coat.

@PaulinasPassions 5 жыл бұрын

You are right, I've noticed that too! There are some dry top coats that are more flexible. For example Tip Top from Indigo - I'm sure other brands have them too right now. I also love using it, because you can apply a thin layer and the application is still very smooth.
