I appreciate how she explains why you do things & why you wouldn't. Alot of tutorials will assume you already know the "basic" steps like prepping the nail. But alot of ppl are self taught & appreciate explanations for the reasons why you do things. (I.e . Using the ph bond affects the glue adhesion but can be used prior to gel polish) This explains why my full coverage tips dont last long😢. Thank you for the video! ❤

I’ve tried full cover nails for a few months about five times and every time they’ve come off in the same day. I listen to your advice and now I have beautiful DIY easy manicure thank you so much I feel so pretty now.

I file the inside of the tip where u will glue the nail and no protein bond on the natural nail; greg said that in a video he did a while ago i don’t remember it. It works out for me i can wear them for more than 2 weeks but i get impatient and remove them.

just in case if you don't do this already Please keep your hands out of water like sitting in the tub with your hands in water washing dishes fully submerging them causes the natural nail to expand from the water and then shrink when it dries when that happens that helps it to lift and chip If you have your hands in water if you have a rough lifestyle with your hands press on nails will be hard if not dangerous or tricky to keep on I had to tell someone that their lifestyle does not fit press on nails and depending on how you prep them you can rip your natural nail off with a press on nail on it or crack it now not the whole now but maybe just part of the nail and you know that burning feeling imagine that but worse please be careful please watch for lifting I don't want you to get a fungus either

Thank you for this video! I have ADHD so a lot of other tutorials can get hard for me to focus on/comprehend, but something about the way you speak is very easy to listen to and understand! Also, side note: You are super pretty!

Wow, no wonder why my glue on nails never lasted xD I never did anything she said to do and I thought I was doing everything right for so many years, but since they never lasted I stopped trying. Now I can’t wait to try this again the correct way! Yay!! So excited!

Thank you, Young Nails. I'm learning so much from your page. The simple hygienic things that all of you do to protect your clients is one of the primary reasons why I wanted to learn how to do my own nails. The salons that I tried had way too many possible cross contamination issues. It wasn't worth the risk for me. Again, thank you for your thorough content. It's greatly appreciated by non professionals, too.

Just wanted to say thank you! I followed the steps exactly and my nails have now lasted me 2 weeks. I did solid 4 days of gardening and they're still holding on! Prep really is the key!

This was incredible helpful - mine ALWAYS pop off and I couldnt figure out why but I think I was trying to force a nail that was too small! I cant wait to try it with a bigger one thank you

I needed to watch this and so glad I came across it because I've been having problems with my application! Definitely got some great tips and info! Thanks so much!

Thank you for the video, I’ve been trying to figure out how to get rid of the lip after applying the tip! I see now that I can just file it down + I learned I wasn’t prepping the tip right, thanks again!

Here’s what I do: prep nails as usual, dehydrator and primer, base coat, 30 sec cure, primer on the tips, base coat, then what is best for me is I have a goose neck lamp that gives me room to carefully place the rip and get a snug fit. If there is any overflow of base coat then cure for a few seconds and then clean up the nail and go back for a few more seconds. Do 60 seconds on the lamp for the whole hand.

Thanks Tracie. And thank you for filling orders in the warehouse.

Sooo glad I found this video !!! I've seen many about putting polish on artificial press - on nails but none were so in - depth as this one is. I was wondering if you indeed had to prep the tops of the nails before painting them - if that would make the paint adhere better. I've also been wondering how much you need to prep your natural nail to have the glue hold the press - on nail for more than a day or two. TYSM for sharing your techniques and knowledge with us. I do appreciate your advice.

I've only done full cover tips a couple times so thank you for this video!!!

This was SO helpful! I have never done this before and I just bought a kit from Amazon and I had no idea what to do 🤣

Also, if the full cover tip is too small, it will cause the nail the bow and eventually start separating the layers of the natural nail from top layer to underneath layer. Depending on how small, it may change the shape of the nail until it grows out.

@@diamond2241 No, it's not the same thing at all. Builder gel is used to 'build' a nail, or build up a nail, for example, you want to strengthen a nail or add an apex to a flat nail, also fills gaps between the press-on nail and natural nail. Gem glue cannot build up a nail or fill the gap between press-on and natural nail, it solely designed to adhere crystals and other type of embellishments. Hope this helps!

I’ve JUST started using press on nails, so I don’t have the electric file. I’m just using a nail file to gently rough the surface of my own nails. I was going to try the builder nail products until I read the negative experiences others had, YIKES! I use Kiss glue and have had none pop off until at least a week has passed. I will admit I end up with glue on the skin around my nails when I apply the glue to the press on nail. I’ve dropped them, ended up with glue on every surface than my nail! So I’m going to try a drop of glue on my own nail and spread it over the surface of my own nail, then apply the press on nail. Thank you for all the tips and info! Much love to you in oneness! 🙏🏻❤️🕊

You would definitely have to file the nail and customize it to fit the wide nail as well as the cuticle area. Start with a tip that fits the wider free edge and taper in the cuticle area.

This is new to me. Kind of like press ons. Can i ask how long does this last? Whats the diff in longevity with glue vs gell to attach tip? Thanks. Just placed an order on the site for some of those powders

I have been using glue on kits (like Kiss) occasionally for 15 years and they never last. You video just taught me that I am likely using the wrong size because they tend to push into the sides of my nail bed. I just always dismissed the feeling.

You are awesome

I got gel x nails done "professionally" - it was my first time, but I could tell they weren't being done well (I've had hard gel and acrylic in the past). Air bubbles, too much pressure - common sense that nails were going to pop off. And yup, one week later, my index nail pops off. I bought a kit and replaced it with a bigger size and it's stuck on well now!

Can you put protein bond on the natural nail before you glue the full cover tip on to help it last longer ?

I use dehydrator on my natural nail before I glue on the press on it works well for me. But I will try without next tine.

I really like this video. Thank you for the step by step instructions. I would like if you can link the drill machine that is to the right side of you in the description below with the rest of them. Thank you. Do you have a video to also remove the nails when you don't want the nails anymore? Thank you very much.
