“How do two brothers get into the nail care business?” This is the single most common question people ask us. There’s a long and rocky version but we’ll give you the short one. We have our fearless and unconventional mother, Young Salo, to thank. With a single-minded entrepreneurial spirit, she decided to start her own business at the age of 49. She had a passion for the nail industry and we did everything in our power to support her. In the end, this is a family business.
Greg, the older brother, became a licensed nail technician after switching gears from fire fighter’s training. He is energy personified and has a true passion for developing the best professional nail care products and education. Habib is the younger brother. He jumped in a few years later; taking a detour from medical school and a life in music. He brings his own creative mind for business, marketing and strategy. Unexpectedly, we are a perfect team.
Today, more than 20 years later, Young Nails Inc., is a professional nail care manufacturing company exporting to over 40 countries worldwide and distributing domestically to over 3000 stores. We’re respected for our next-level product innovation and education. Our mission is to bring you the best quality products and we’ll show you how to use them with incredible results. It’s really that simple.
Welcome to the Young Nails family!

    Here I come to the party all late but better late than never. This video is right on time for me. As a beginner you struggle with most things if not all. Shaping is a big struggle for me. I now can apply your most useful life saving techniques while I’m shaping. It will only get better from here! Thanks Greg!

    Greg, you are absolutely the most informative, comprehensive, and reliable source of knowledge on acrylic application that I have had the privilege of watching over the past year, when I set out on my nail journey. I attended one of your "all about acrylic" webinars a few months back yet was unable to follow along due to covid-19 but will most definitely be signing up again and with any luck perhaps I will get the pleasure of attending one if your week long on site classes. You probably hear this all the time but I can't help but say it anyway that you truly are one of the best if not the best role model for those who, like me, are embarking on this often frustrating endeavor and more importantly those of us that see the value in doing it the right way, even when it seems that there might be an easier, or faster way of executing the perfect application. And also the advantages of using quality products from the very beginning, and alleviating the question of is it my technique, or is this just a crappy product. With YN products in my toolbox I am confident and honestly ten steps ahead of the game. Thank you for your dedication, and for always giving so freely of such valuable tips. Young Nails ROCKS!!!

    Yeah Tina I am not sure of where you are from but most States require us to have so many accredited hours from an accredited school. I learned many years ago that some of these schools that are considered accredited confuse me on how & where they receive that accreditation. I am 47 I went to cosmetology school before there was a KZread girl I use to drive my instructors NUTS because I asked to many questions & i questioned them, to the point that finally their frustration with me became too much... We all need to be thankful for KZread. We are now able to receive quality help. Thank god. We aren't limited to what & who lives in the cities we live in.
