How to apply Fiber Gel on your Non-Dominant Hand!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Welcome Welcome Welcome to the Kirsty Meakin Show!!
In Today's video I will be showing you how to apply fiber gel using your non-dominant hand, I do it a little bit differently from the “Proper way” keep watching!
So as you can see my nails are looking a little worse for wear, so I'm going to give them the Fiber Gel treatment.
I'll start by using my e-file with my cuticle bit and give my cuticles a whaz around then ill move on to my proximal fold bit and get rid of any dry skin.
Now ill take a 240 grit file and go over nice and light duck just to abraise that top surface and make sure there is no shine on my natural nail were not obliterating the nail here guys.
Next up ill give my nails a wipe over using the Nailchemy Cleanser.
Now ill take the Nailchemy Cameo Fiber Gel and ill start by applying a thin layer on my nails, now usually what we would do after a cure is to get a lot of product on the brush and Ziggy Zag it down the nail but when working on my non-dominant hand I don’t do that, what I'm going to do instead is keep building up those thin layers but we will pull the bulk of the product into the back third of the nail and turn that over for a few seconds to form our apex and I'm going to do 4 layers with this process as opposed to the 3 layers on the Ziggy Zag Process as my 2nd and 3rd layer won’t be as thick as they usually would.
Now with all the product, I need on my nails I'm going to give them a clean over with the Nailchemy Cleanser, and then we are ready to file.
So now ill take my Metal file and Straighten up my sidewalls.
Then ill Take my 180 Grit File and file my nails into shape then ill give them a buff followed by another clean with the Nailchemy Cleanser.
Now ill give them a top coat using the one and only Kirsty Meakin Glossy Top Coat.
Now ill finish up with a little bit of cuticle oil i'm using Drama Queen by indigo nails
There You are That's it! I hope this helps you and check back next time.
Loads a Love KM xox

As someone just starting to learn how to do my own nails I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate everything you do. You make it super easy to understand and follow your tutorials and your channel is so entertaining. Thank you again.
I’m so happy that you went and made your own channel. I love these educational videos. They help me so much!

This product is ideal for those recovering from surgery etc and wish to have their own nails once more !!! Fabulous xxx
Kirsty I love watching you! you are so funny! you explain everything you do when doing nails. i have learnt so much from you.
Your natural nails are lovely! This is a great look.
I keep a nitrile glove in my shower when I use my purple shampoo and conditioner. I rinse the glove off and hang it to dry. Helps prevent nail stains! Love you! Cheers Dove!
This is insightful! Thank you for your thorough explanation! I started doing my own nails this month. 💅
Beautiful! I struggle with my non-dominant hand as well! Tyfs💜
Kirsty you are so knowledgeable very impressive, I love watching your videos. Love You Kirsty
Always a cheerful girl Kirsty, helpful hints and fabulous nail designs ! Thankyou from Leanne ,Western Australia!
im curious as to all the differences between hard gel, builder gel, and fiber gel, etc. and also how each would compare next to each other
Great advice! I really needed this. Thank you so much. 🤗
Fantastic as usual.. 😍 I'm a lefty, it took me a few years to master my non dominant hand application..
Kirsty with fall around the corner I would love to watch a tutorial on 3d amber inspired nails 🤎💛🖤🧡
Thanks so much for doing this!!!
Amazing Kirsty tysmfs 🥰❤️😍
Thank you so much for the vid. That will help me a lot thank you for sharing. Love the colour on your mails xxx
I'm left handed and I'm enjoying watching you use your left hand. We have the reverse problem all of the time because you are probably not aware of how many ordinary items are intended for use with the right hand. BTW your nails look nice.
Lovely Kirsty ❤️
Thanks for this video it was very helpful love watching glad you included Adam love that he involved love listening to him also thanks Adam but that's just from Maggie's opinion God bless us all
Thank you for sharing this. It is hard doing your own nails.
Love your videos
Hi Kristy, love the video. Am wondering what bit you would use to remove this product?
Hi Kirsty what.is the best nail foil gel to use because I just can’t find a decent one? Love your new channel
There is just something about nails like that. They're elegant looking and beautiful. Now don't get me wrong, I love the extensions but those are gorgeous.
First off, LOVE you, your channel, and Adam. Adore your videos with Fay. They are my favorite. Second, as someone who would love to be able to do their own nails I have a bit of a problem. My nails are mostly flat, with only my pinky having a natural c curve and when my nails begin to grow the corners grow up in a curve. Is there any advice you can give me on how to combat this?
Loved the into!
HaHa, the way you hold the hand piece doing the opposite hand. Love it!
Thank u I thought of trying hard gel this way just didn’t know if it would work
I have found shaving cream and a nail brush helps get the stains off my nails and skin.
I would really like to know what brand is your portable electric file Kirsty Meakin ! Love 💗 love your tutorial videos and your products to ❤️❤️

Quick question can you build enhancements over the fibre gel x
Thank you.
Can you use cloves with shampoo. Glad I'm watching you I was going get some of that shampoo, thank you for sharing
I found doing my non Dom hand I need to use my left pinky as a place holder cuz in the air is an accident waiting to happen for me😂but ur Kirsty r a pro so👆🏽🌺
Hello from Spain, could you do nails using NSI simplicity dip system. And see what you think. I use it a lot over natural nails as it's a good product. It's another way of strengthening natural nails, but can be used for shorter extensions.
Is Nailchemy a professional product only? If so is there a similar product you can recommend for the rest of us?
Seeing even Kirsty struggling with her non-dominant hand gives me hope 😁 I don't feel bad about my own attempts now 😆
Hi from Sunny South Africa... you did not prep and prime?
I have thin natural nails and I would like to use a product like the Nailchemy Fibre Gel. I went to their site and it seem they also sell to pros. Is there similar product, available in the US that works as well?
Yes that’s the way I do it too.
Try putting salt I use sea salt under the stained nails with very warm water and use a flat pointed swab to clean with and rinse with very warm water 😉
Hi, can anyone recommend an alternative to Nailchemy fibre gel as their UK web site says it is for professionals only. Thanks in advance.
I would love to buy these products. When can I get them in Canada?
I love this length and shape 😍 ❤ 💕
What is fibre gel ? Where can you get it if you are not a proffesional ?😀
Can you do a smile line in acrylic ?
Is fiber gel something like builder gel??
Try using the pink or black gloves you have when washing your hair. Thats what I do and it stops the staining.
What fiber he did you use?
Hola desde Spain
Very good video and those nail were looking good ma’am but I am long nail girl lol
Nailchemy only sell to professionals like you, do u recommend any other fibre gel that does the same thing???
Kirsty can you please help, I'm not a tech, but love to do my nails, I usually use acrylic, but lately I've been so busy and don't have time to do them so I have tried going without my extensions and only going with my own nails, is rubber base and builder gel the same, what I mean will they strengthen my nail, I love your channel, I have been watching you for ever you have so much knowledge you very clever lady, take care 💖💖💖xxxx

Hi Kirsty and Adam! I love your channel! I have a question regarding your products. I wanted to buy some files and buffers from your website. I can see you sell the files in a traditional form but I cannot see the option to buy the buffers without the need to buy a metal file board. Do you sell the buffers in a traditional form at all? Or are they only available as a replacement buffers to be used with a metal board?

Hey kirsty ur lucky ur hands aren't as dry as mine I look like I've been crushing blueberries after using my purple shampoo 🤣 great way of doing ur dominant hand its not easy for sure xxx
Yes Adam, I've seen those "Hard working woman's nails" videos and that's what Kirsty's nails did kind of look like 🤣🤣
Love you Kirsty. Honestly your the person who inspired me to get into nails… Is fiber gel the same as builder In a bottle? I hardly ever use gel so I’m not familiar with all the products. I will be starting school soon so I’ll be learning more 😊
@jasminkottlorz9097

Fibergel is way stronger than builder in a bottle. So when you do longer nails is best to use fiber because it's strength. Builder in a bottle isn't bad by any means but i prefer It for short to Medium lenght. But honestly you can Use them both either way.

Kirsty and Adam left, because she wasn't allowed to use any other products than theirs and if they weren't as good as she would like, she couldn't say so. She now can use any manufacturer, any product and be honest about if she likes it or not and what she would change with it etc. She has also just brought out her own range of gel polishes, which she wouldn't have been able to do if she'd stayed with Naio.
The state of the naked nails is why I always use gloves when I put on my blue or purple shampoo on my hair. Fanola works great but stains my dry ass hell hands like it's his job. Not a great look.
Please PLEASE can you do an acrylic in fill and also acrylic removal WITHOUT an e file, just hand files ect and what hand files to use. I'm newly qualified in acrylic nails and haven't done my e file course yet. Thankyou 😁

Use a 80/100 grit to remove the bulk then go to a 180 when getting close to the nail bed.
I never do my dominant! Lol 😂

YIKES!! ~ I've watched the Russian "Working woman's" nail vids!!! LOL No yours do not look that bad!!
Please reply to my query .😀
Wow I can’t believe you’re twisting and turning that bit and going in with the tip of the bit. It looks damaging on video. I know it is not as bad as it looks. I just hope new comers are aware of your expertise in handling the e-file. Thanks for sharing Kirsty, love you and Adam.
