If you are a nurse they are consider extra long and are not allowed. No nail products either. I am in hell!

Love that you have been describing in more detail the use of the efile now that we are on your own channel, really helpful knowing speeds to try improving my technique 😁

So excited for this video - I just started trying builder gels and this dropped just in time for me to remove a set!

Love all the high quality photos at the end!

Thank you Adam, for asking about the differences. I have been wondering the same.

I've got rid of my acrylics and starting from scratch using a similar product. So far so good.

Hell yes Kirsty and Adam time excited hehehe 😃

Your so fun! And I learn so much! 💕💕💕🤘🏻💅🏼

Omg I need this i love it so much as my nails are so sort

I would LOVE if Kirsty did a live Q and A

Your wardrobe never failess to excite definitely cuela vibes everytime love your natural cut nails with gel polish . really love your content very entertaining 🐼💕✨

I have always had natural nails and they break all the time!! I need this product it looks like it would save my natural nail!! Thank you, Kirsty for sharing this, love your video's!! Thank you, Adam for asking the question in the video's and that I'm asking when the video is playing!

Ohhhhh do I see a Kirsty Meakin lamp 😍

I always wondered about the file grit being 240 for smoother but a buffer being 150. I was thinking surely the buffer should be like 300 grit. Glad you asked Adam! 😃👍

Hi lovelies! Love this video! It’s so refreshing to see you doing some nail pampering for yourself Kirsty especially on shorter natural nails. Thankyou! Please could I ask you what is the difference between fibre gel and other types of builder gels (for example something like Naio’s BIAB - sorry to use that as an example on here but as a beginner it’s my only basis for comparison at present) This sounds like a great product and is a beautiful colour too - definitely something I could do with for my own nails as they have always been rubbish! They’re so thin and weak it’s pathetic! Much love to all and keep up the fab content and great questions (thanks Adam)!

I’m a blonde and use purple shampoo also and the Young Nails stain resistant top coat is the absolute best. I have zero staining when I use it and also use it on friends that smoke and they have no yellowing.

Ich folge allen Videos interessiert und bin begeistert!

Do you have a video for the cloud set!?!?? I want blue sky with clouds!!! So pretty

I love how you describe every step you are doing and how educational your videos are. Adam...you probably know more about doing nails than most nail technicians! I would definitely be interested in seeing videos of you going with your wife undercover 😉 to see what happens if you try to critique someone else's work 🤣 how hilarious would that be 😂😅 I mean come on...you've only had one on one training by the Queen herself 😁 for how long? 🤔

I ♥️ this Nails so much

Another awesome video!!! 🥰🥰

Try indigo gel polishes! They have some amazing mineral base gel polishes, with so many cool shades, that also make your natural nails strong. Its a very cool concept they offer and try more their cuticle oils (matrioshka is my fave) ❤

I struggle with my nails in the summer with all the water activities. I was thinking something like this might help but then you talked about hard gel being non-porous and now I'm wondering if that would be better. Any suggestions for a water and nail lover?

I love watching your videos but was just wondering if you could do a design with skulls I love them like u do.

Which would you recommend the best for strength? Build a gel or fibre gel.

Really great tutorial, thank you for showing us how to remove and apply. Question though - is fiber gel the same as poly gel and if different, can they be removed/applied similarly? Every time I've tried removing my poly gel with an efile, soaking, or the hand file nothing happens and its exceptionally long, painful, and an awful experience. I'm hoping fiber gel is different and that it'll be helpful for growing my natural nails under gel

Hi Kirsty, would you say that this type of fibre gel/build a gel etc is easier for a beginner to use than polygel or acrylic?? Thanks 😊

What’s the difference between fiber gel and builder gel? I am not a professional and bought Naio products when you were affiliated with them, but I’m allergic to certain products of theirs (the top coats and certain gel polish colors, mostly the blues/greens) so I had to get rid of most of them. I still use their builder in a bottle but would love to switch to nailchemy since that’s what you’re using now! How do the nailchemy and Naio products compare?

I've been using the builder in the bottle from Naio, would you say this is a better product or is a different product?

I have a question ok so my nails are really short hardly any free edge how can I use that fibre gel but have my nails bit longer using tips? Or do I need a builder gel for that love your nails beautiful 🤩 xxxxxxxx

Kirsty, what can you use if you have developed a contact dermatitis to acetone? Is there anything? I find a I have to file everything off except my base layer in order to minimise the irritation.

Sitting here, middle of a soak off and this pops up! I haven't used fiber gel before. If I crack a nail, I put thin poly on but that is putzie.

Just a hint for removal...using a large plastic bag (I prefer zip lock) place a piece of paper toweling that easily fits inside the bag with room to spare. Add enough acetone to cover your nails and a tablespoon of olive oil*. After filing the shine off, place your hand in the bag and place the bag in a bowl of very warm water. Soak for about 5 minutes before you begin to rub your nails on the paper toweling. The warmth and the abrasion will remove the gel or dip powder quickly. *The oil will leave an oily finish on your nails. Don't use it if you intend to use polish on your nails directly after removal.

Just here ignoring that my country is literally going up in flames and our President is declaring a state of emergency...but Kirsty IS LIFE and this tutorial is more important than politics 🤣🤣💗💗🤘🤘

I would love to try it but I'm allergic to gel polish and hard gel

They have this stuff called mini mani moo that takes gel polish right off. No acetone soak🥳

Use disposable gloves prevents staining the nails

Rub some Vaseline into your nails when you take off the foil. It will stop the gel from rehardening so it is easier to remove. The Vaseline also helps stop the acetone d’or drying out the nails.

It would be nice if when we asked questions they’d get replied to. Can the fibre gel be used over acrylic?

@LinaBassTV

During a fill you mean ? You can but there’s no point. You should take the acrylic off.

Love the result of the new nails. So classy. But one question: Isn't it more healthier for the skin and nail bed to file the products down instead of using acetone to make it melting? I used this technique once and my skin was dry like hell. Needed almost a month to take care of my nails and hands with creme and things like that.

@Augustbeauty69

I think they're still debating that. I don't know, I quit messing around with any kind of nail tips the last time I had to soak off my acrylics, it left my fingers sensitive for weeks. I can't imagine all the poking and prodding and scraping is good for your nails, but they claim the efile is bad for you. Who knows.

@AaronW-ww4ds

2 жыл бұрын

It's not healthier also filing completely down to the natural nail isn't recommended due to the fact you can severely damage the natural nail plate what is recommended is to file the bulk of the gel or acrylic then leave a thin layer of the product on then soak that off which means your hands are not in acetone for like half an hour

@@Augustbeauty69 e files are bad for the natural nail especially when they are being used with an extremely coarse grit and by those who haven't the first clue what they're doing with it which is why most nail tech courses do not come with e file training its always taught with hand files and e files are a separate course
