Another great lesson from our Fairy NailGodMother. Tell Camerman that I'm really liking the nail animations . 👍👍

I love when camera man asks questions, makes the teacher’s heart sing. Also if you would like to avoid any confusion or hurt feelings, you could use the term “less experienced” rather than “less skilled”. This takes the focus off the ability and puts it onto the development specific skill set. Terminology is my passion! Y’all are awesome!

I mostly do nail art on my natural nail but Suzie is definitely temping me to try out acrylic nails 😂

Haven't been here in so long, needed this.

You’re like the bob Ross of nails

Not a nail tech and never plan on using stuff like this, but I love your videos Susie! So relaxing and informative. Also, girl, your hair in this video looks so pretty! 😍

I don’t even do nails and watch every one of Suzies videos lol

I only paint my natural nails at home. However, this video was very satisfying to watch.

I'm honestly in awe someone could live with those on for weeks. How do you wash your hair, change the bed, get dressed, so many, most things. I can't imagine!

Not only is this a great video for deciding how to maintenance or remove these types of nails, but I love how you explain the whole apex to nail ratio. I'm going to use this for my clients with tiny nailbeds that want 2 inch long claws lol. Thanks, Suzi!

This video is JUST in time for me! Just started doing my own nails with full cover gels attached with builder gel. I'm actually really good at it, but I needed this video! Thank you!

Hi Suzie, so I’m trying to perfect my almond nails but I don’t use forms so I was hoping you could maybe do a video on shaping almond nails from glue on tips?

AH I wasn’t ready for the natural nail to crack like that in that graphic 😫😫😫

I'm starting to do my own nails at home and I've learned so much from you, Suzie. Love your channel and you!

I love your tutorials! And can I take a moment to say how I appreciate how you decorate your studio?!?!? I've watched a lot of tutorials over the years, and not many people think "outside the shot" and provide beautiful backgrounds for their beautiful work! It's an extra step that does not go unnoticed.

This is a much-needed video that--pardon the expression--fills the information gap in using full-coverage tips. I've generally used the Build-in-a-Bottle to fill in Gelly Tips, but the same applies. If I fill more than twice, they do lift, as you would expect from the apex being off. THANK YOU again for your teaching!

OMG you are by FAR my favorite nail tech/instructor!!! So informative, detailed, and you go at the perfect speed! You’re personable but not fake or too much fluff!!! I just love you!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Stay blessed 🙏🏽

Used jelly tips for the first time using your acrylic. I was amazed at the longevity. I did one fill before I had to remove. Thank you for this. You're my nail hero!!❤

What a great look with that hair and these glasses.

Thank you. I've been looking for instructions on this for awhile

I'm doing gel nails myself but I always enjoy learning something new about techniques! 😊

I haven’t watched you since the 4th grade I’m in 10th now and your videos are still addicting

Your tutorial videos inspired me to open a nail salon at home...its been months n I am doing good.. thank u so much.. 💓 💗

I actually love these. Its quick and easy. I can sculpt and have been doin my own nails for years and then extremely long nails for my oldest daughter. I wish they had these back when she had the extreme nails. It would take me an hour to sculpt her nails. These I’m done in like 20 minutes. I also fill them but I don’t wear my nails long. I’m the person that needs a fill every week.

I have some gel tips coming in the mail. I can hardly wait!!!

I appreciate you wearing a mask using the efile , you should do a video on nail product allergy prevention in salon & at home. I had to learn the hard way.

Sue my English it's not very well I am a French Canadians but I love and order stand what you say thank you for your generosity....love your work

Cameraman has such great questions. I love it!

OMG, I was just trying to decide this with my gel nails that I did, because they last so long they never pop off or lift so I've been trying to decide do I fill or do I start over but now you've explained exactly why i should do one or the other and yeah it's time for me to start over lol, thanks for another great video 1💙

I love the way you teach! No drama so informative & your very good! You also seem very sweet and I just love your channel

excellent info! im cutting off my naturally long nails after years of growing out because im tired of constant nail repairs to maintain a perfect look. ordered the gel full coverage tips and wondered about fill or removing. thanks again and happy new year

I only refill when I haven't broken a tip and/or not looking for a new shape. On polygel I just refill until I'm tired of it since it's not acrylic and I find it easier to reshape no matter the nail stage. Just me personally since I don't get acrylic often anymore. Love ya Suzie and thanks for the info! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I don't know about other people but while I'm learning I use gel tips when applying with my non-dominant hand and attempt to sculpt when applying nails with my dominant hand to save my sanity and time lol. This is a very helpful video.

The best channel about nails👍💐🍁🍀

I've never seen your hair up Susie. You look so cute! I love it 🥰🤗

That broken nail sound, camera man, made me cringe, I absolutely hate when I break a nail. Loved this video!!

Hey susie, I've been a faithful subscriber for years. I've seen the Majority of your videos & continue to watch faithfully. Suzie 🙂 from the bottom of my heart I just want to say Thank you! You Rock!!!

Hi suzzie💕

You are the best Suzie!!!

Susie you are an awesome teacher!! Love you videos!!

Hey Suzie that covered my question last week really well. Had a go at my infills twice now so far so good. I do however wear them fairly short and my nail beds quite flat so I tend to go for the natural shape rather than sculpted. One came off today so I used one of your forms with the low odour monomer and crafted my own half decent nail from scratch (pardon the pun) thanks to your great tutorials! Cool graphics to Cameraman. See you next week xx

I know your videos are for educational purposes but I find them so soothing and relaxing on top of that. It's bedtime where I am but I just had to get a huge spider out of my room and it was fast and I'm full of adrenaline, you're calming be back down, so thank you

I swear you are the best teacher...this was so informative...love u Suzie

Aloha Suzie and Camerman!! Found your channel a day or two ago and am loving it! I’ve been wanting to get into doing my own nails and I love the way you teach! Thanks for the great tutorials!! 🤙🏼🌺💕

Why was the decision I have to make in 2 weeks before my vacation thank you ma'am.

I LOVE your videos and Pro Tips!!!! I've learned SO SO much! Idk about anybody else, but I know I appreciate you, THANK YOU!!!

Even though I'm a male you're one of the reasons I look forward to learning how to do my own nails it looks so much fun

Awesome Suzie! Thank you for great educational content, as always! 🙃💅💜

hey suzie 😃 I'm not a professional but I do my nails at home. I bought your slow acrylic and immediately tested it yesterday. i love it ❤️ so i wanted to say thank you. for all the things I learned from you and the great acrylic 🥰

I’m working really hard on perfecting my sculpting. I find gel is a whole lot easier so when I’m in a hurry I build with gel but I’m working on getting that acrylic just right. I find I’m building my acrylic nails way to thick. It’s like I can’t tell how think it is when I’m building… I’m gonna tackle another set on myself today. I film everything so I can watch back and have a better idea of exactly what I’m doing right and wrong… Today I’m gonna try to pay more attention to how much product I’m putting on as I build instead of trying to figure out exactly how thick it is on the form. We’ll see how this works. 😉 Trial by error.

Oh and I finally got your handfiles!! Can’t wait to use them!!

Great video as always!!!

I have my first set on. Thank you! I can decide in 3 weeks whether I want a new set or to fill!

I've only KZfaq learned how to sculpt a nail, but the press on tip life has been a game changer for a stay at home mom of 3... lol can do my nails so fast now🤣😂

I honestly haven't done a refill on full cover tips. Somehow it feels better to just remove them and put a new set. However, I always do a refill on my natural nails when I do sculpting with hard gel. I haven't had lifting for a long time now, probably over a year, so there's no need to remove everything. I prefer to have hard gel overlay on my natural nails and refill saves time.

i LOVE this channel ! thank you thank you thank you

I love how you explain everything. 🥰 guess what? I ordered the melody susie nail drill. I haven't tried it as much, but so far I'm loving it. Lol

Please don't remove one finger! :) enjoy your videos so much, you make me laugh always, thank you for your detailed explanations and the fact that you always say 'in my experience'

I love you so much and that shirt is brilliant on you!!!!

Hi 🙋‍♀️🌷🌸clicked on so fast for a Suzie video 💖💝💅 always so educational ❤️

So, I paint full cover nails before I apply them on myself. My hands are too shaky to do them on my fingers. If you had to say, what is the best way to attach them when they're opaque so gel won't work? Should I try acrylic? I've only used acrylic twice so I'm hesitant. I love your videos - Liz

Got out of doing my nails lately makes me want to start back thank you

Lord till this day I can’t get acrylic. I started with gel because that’s what I was getting at the salon. I wish I could master it. Took me a while to really master the gel like two years of new sets and rebalance (and new set is really where the skill is I feel) but I also coupled that with sculpting. Products can really make or break you when learning, get those good forms lol As convenient as they seem, tips, dual forms, full nail tips, they can be more trouble than they are worth. It’s really easy to have overspill or air bubbles/too little product. Literally one day after using four different types of forms over time it just clicked and my application made more sense to me which brought then brought my sculpture from good to proficient. Thanks to these videos I binged when I started lol and my current forms have multiple perforations that I don’t have to use thanks to studying Suzie. Thank you lovely lady!

Those long nails are killer!😍

Thx SO MUCH Suzie!! I've needed a vid on this for soooo long but could never find one!!! Your the BEST!!! ❤💅

Loving your videos!

Trying to find a nail school but my husband is active duty and we live in bfe Louisiana right now 🤦🏻‍♀️ So for now I'm just practicing on myself and a practice hand. Thanks for the great tips!!!

I fill mine with builder gel 🤗

Right on time. I was trying to decide if I should soak off and reapply. But now nope backfill it is!

man suzie really knows her stuff! and so darn cute while doing it!

Great video my dear Friends !! Always looking forward to your videos!!

Celebrating my birthday week glad to see your videos I would have loved to see you do a new set. I hope real soon you'll start doing some gel overlay sets. Have a blessed week thank you for making nails so fun

Thaaaaaaaanks for rhe vid! I'm a full coverage gal!!!

I've been under your tutelage for almost a year.. I've become pretty good at hybrid gel. I even bought your monimer. The slow kind. It too slow for me. Chasing acrylic for 5 min. My question is. I seen somewhere to just add a tiny bit of accitone to speed it up to your liking. Any thoughts on this.

Suz 😍 you look adorable in this video and I love this video. Thanks!!

Oh I love when you post!! I have learned so much from you!!

Great video Suzie! I’ve already worn out my coarse file and sanding sponge. I love them!

I will say, I have the ability to sculpt a new set, but I don’t really like to. I’m pretty comfortable with a fill and rebalance, but I get impatient building a whole new set. So I like to start with something like duoforms or tips to get started.

Love watching your videos tyfs 💗💖

Hello Susie and Cameraman. Love all of the videos

I very needed this video. Thank you so much ☺️🙏🏻

Can you please make another toe nail polish vid please

THANK YOU!! Im so sick of going to salons & then telling me my apex should be thin it looks natural. They already dont look natural bc they're 3 inches long. I didnt ask for natural, all i want is for them to not break across my finger.

I appreciate this! I was getting acrylics for about two years (I didn’t know much about them) and my nail tech never told me i should be getting new sets every few months. I was shocked lol

Thank you so much! This was really helpful! 🥰

Should people take a break from nails for a bit? When should you apply a new set? Or is a new set even needed when sculpturing the nails with tips?

Are we to put dehydrator & primer before we put the new acrylic on?

I always fail at filling my fullcover tips. That's why I spare me the hassel and put on a new set after about 3 weeks. But I might try a refill since you explained it so well. =)

Yes! Just what I needed 🥰

I use all polygel which has been better for me, I always take off the full covers only because I always end up bumping and cracking my nail tips due to work typing. Have you worked with any of the new Makkart or Saviland polygels? Would be nice to see your take on those products.

Is there a video of your Chrome Polish application?

I think I would have applied a bit more product to create the new apex and filed down the old one a bit. I’m not a pro, and I only use dip powder or builder gel on myself, but I feel like that new apex isn’t strong enough 😕 that being said, I love you and your dedication and accuracy in teaching all of us 💙

I really needed this video! Thank youu!!🎉

If I Want to apply a new set of full cover tips yet I took my previous sit down to basically just a Thin layer of gel on my nails with an e file got rid of all lifting.. can i now on top of the gel I left on my nails put a brand new set of gel x tips? I’d like to avoid completely removing all products from my nails every couple weeks if I can as long as I can continually just take all the product down to a tiny thin layer and then redo the service so it’s never technically rebalanced by my untrained hand while also never getting down to my natural nail every time I change them. Hope this question makes sense lol. It’s kind of a bunch of statements lmao. Ty Susie. it’s ok if people are offended when you’re talking about a certifiable skill. DIY nails are just very accessible and the entry level nails have a very low learning curve lol. You are a specialist and as such many people will ever be able to match your skill level let alone expertise level lol. So if people can’t recognize just how difficult it is to do right then they probably won’t ever learn how to fix their mistakes lol

I absolutely love you Mamma Duke of Nails 🤗 also camera Man we love your video grafics plus Ma' your shirt is stunning 🥰 also where did you get that small bit and is it available for lefties 🤗

But what about short/extra short nail tips that have little to no apex? How may times can you fill those?

I've heard a few times Max from EnailC was on your channel I've never seen it or can find it??

Filing my right hand is still a challenge with an e-file. I would have messed up that very long nail on my right!

What e-file do you use?

Oh and are you going to sell your full nails in other shapes? I really wanna buy them. But im just not a fan of almond nail shapes. I like long tapered square or ballerina, coffin. Stiletto too. Hopefully you come out with more shapes soon. Thanks for all of your help with mine and so many other's nail journey.
