I’m at the beginning stages of selling press ons and honestly, you have been the MOST helpful person I’ve come across. I’m not fond of Gatekeepers because the nail community is sooo broad and we could all literally win. The fact that you are so open and willing to answer our questions and give us detailed videos…you’re a Saint! I’m so impressed by your organization, it’d the OCD in me 😂 thank you for all your content!!

Oh I forgot to ask my question…lol. What sizes do you recommend for your sizing kit card stock as well as the actual nail set card stock?

I’m not in the nail business at all LOL but I just love the videos and the way you speak! It’s super calming! Thanks for putting so much effort into the channel!

hahah such a compliment! You’re very welcome here anyway 🤍

I just want to say I've been following you on Instagram for awhile, and I am involved with the way you are soft-spoken and so easy to understand, the way you do your press on's, and how you are willing to teach us how you work your business. I've had troubles with my business for a bit, but I am learning more and trying to work on mine better than I did. Thank you so much for your videos, they are very helpful.💕💕

I can't express how much I appreciate you taking the time to make this video. It has been extremely informative and helpful, as I am in the startup phase of my own press-on business. Infinite thanks!

I'm a full-time nail tech and the slow season has really hit, and it seems to be lasting longer than normal. This video is sooo helpful because ive been approached about making press-ons because some of my clients work in the corporate world and travel often so they like to switch it up. this video was a sign ive been looking for & you have a new subbie lol

your videos are some of my fave - you put so much thought and care into them. they're always very concise and calming. thank you for all your effort and sharing your knowledge! 💕

Thank you for all of the information that you give! It’s super helpful, I’ve probably binge watched all of your videos within the last few days. Also, I love how organized you are with everything from the information you give to the way you keep your area 👍🏾

You have been BEST at explaining this press on world. Thank you so much.

I love your transparency!!! Your videos are truly satisfying to watch and I absolutely love it!

Thanks so much for making these videos and answering questions.

I'm a hobby nail enthusiast and do my own nails, but i am not selling or anything like that. But i have to say, that i love watching your videos. They're so calming and aesthetically pleasing. The way you show, how you work and how you pack your orders - i really appreciate your effort. Sending you much love from Germany ♥

I’m looking in the avenue of starting a press on nail business and your videos have been so incredibly helpful. I also have a full time job and really relate to your videos thank you so much! Do you have a video on how you manage your time between both jobs?

Thank you for being an inspiration and so generous with advices!

I'm so glad I came across your channel ❤❤❤❤. I have incorporated some of your organizational tips and products within my nail space that has helped me be more productive and comfortable in my process of making press-ons and hopefully launching soon. I appreciate you for sharing your experience and advice 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Sweetie nail supply is awesome, they do sell internationally but for some products they cant sell to certain places, fortunately for me the gels i want are available for my country

you don’t have to give an exact number, but how much do you recommend investing initially to start the business? what was your process? I want to buy high quality products but I’m afraid to spend too much money and not get any customers. I also have a full time job so I have money to spare I guess I’m just afraid to go all in and see no return 😬😅

I think realistically you are going to see no returns the first couple of months until you've established your market and found your niche

I’d like to know about the shipping label printer and label set up you have what and where ( does it come with your shopify account how does it work etc)as well as the QR code sticker, that is an excellent idea!

can you do a video on gel polishes you use and why they’re your favs or what you use them for ( for color, thick opaque for art, etc)

thank you for this!

What are you dipping your nail in the green stuff… I love your videos such great info you give❤️

Thank u so much so informative!!

Congratualations on your monetization! :D Can you tell me what chrome powder you used on your brown nails? I can't find a powder, that has such a clear chrome finish. The ones I tried usually cover up the colour of the nail and are making the nails look more silver than glassy chrome. Thank you! :D

You are so helpful 🎉

Your videos are so helpful!! I am just starting to plan for a press-on side hustle, so this is so awesome! My main question is how do you determine the "standard" nail sizes?

Girl you are killing it! But in what field do you work full time? Business, art/graphic design?

Discovered SweetieNailSupply through your videos and it´s the worst and best discovery of my life. I live in Norway, which means I have to pay for the product and shipping + VAT (I think it´s called) when the item arrives here (no customs for nail products apparently). Korean gels are my new obsession (yay and nay) and we have such limited options here when it comes to gels. I discovered today that a Norwegian shop sells Après tips, which I didn´t think I would be able to get here.

I plan to run this kind of business next year in my city, so this video helped me to understand what I should start with. I like everything you progressed and the way you did. I wish to get good results the first 6 months and grow as professional, like you. I wonder what the name of the adhesive is that you're using and where you did get it. Greetings~

I think u should sell "nail kits for starters" so u could make more and help those who eant to learn like me❤😊

What’s that green stuff you’re dipping the nails into? This was an extremely informative video. Thanks!

I was going to ask if you were also a parent? then you would be super woman. Work fulltime, run a press on business, and have children. This why I truly believe as women we are our most creative and resilient in our 30's and 40's . I just turned 59 on Halloween, and when I was in my 20's, 30's and 40's I ran and operated (owned) an HVAC business with my husband, and had 3 sons, and then at night I also had my own chocolate business. I had every mold possible for every holiday and all different colors of chocolate, and I use to love to paint and crate such nice chocolates. I use to display them in several delis. I truly did enjoy that time in my life. You are very talented and I think you are an inspiration to all of us watching you . Young & old like me. Keep up the great work.

Hii you have totally inspired me to start my own business!! I’ve been doing my own nails for 10+ years and I’ve come to realize I don’t enjoy doing other peoples nails so I never wanted to make a business out of it. Selling press on nails is the perfect in between. I have recently gotten more supplies to start (from your amazon store front ❤) and I’m hoping to start soon! I have a couple questions if you have the time to answer. How did you chose your company name? Where did you begin your price point? (i’m scared to go too high and get no sales) Did you ever start on something like etsy at first or just make the jump to shopify right away? I’m terrified of wasting too much money as I am a full time student, although I watched on of your videos talking about the pros and cons and etsy seems hard with all of the competition but lower risk essentially. Id love to hear your thoughts if you have the time!! Thank you for everything I know everyone watching your videos is so thankful 💓

Hi, looking to start my own press ons, as I already do gel-x and want to improve my art work. I had a question! What's the sizing on the card you use for your sizing kits?

How do you do the variant limit on your store? You've inspired me to get started with selling my press on designs but for the life of me I cannot figure out how limit the variants so that when one size/shape combo is sold all items go down in units! Thanks! xx

I find your videos and work fascinating! To the point that I really want to make a set for myself and for a few of my friends. I have a question tho, regarding the sizing. The with and length of the tips is one thing but what about the sizing around the cuticles? I have got some gel extension tips and none of them fit so I had to file them to match the shape. I'm worried that if I make them for my friends they also won't fit hem properly. Would you have any advice how to make it work? Or what's your tip?

@miniamipress

4 ай бұрын

This is unfortunately a draw back of press ons, some people do have flatter cuicle lines so I would recommend making them, and giving your friends a note to say that they can file around the cuticle of the finished press on to better fit their cutitcle line if they need to.

I have a question for you? Do you use Apres natural or sculpted? Ive seen a lot of press on businesses use natural but lets just say im one of the very few that needs the sculpted ones. Do you have any customers ever complain if you do use the natural?

Could you go through your thought process for pricing?

When you design a new set to sell on your website do you use your size nails to post on your website or take pictures of? What do you do with them after?

Wow what a lovely, well thought out video💖. With the apres tips do you notice them shrink in size after curing all of the layers of gel on them. Or do they stay true to size after completing a design?The current tips im using shrink so much and its driving me crazy.

@miniamipress

They sooometimes shrink, but maybe by 1mm…I only notice when doing 3d designs that restrict the bending of the nail. So it might be the kind of tip you are using 😖

I’ve noticed that when I do a full gel set it makes the nail tighter. Like maybe the lamp is shrinking the nail. Am I doing something wrong or should I go up a size when doing a gel set?

how to u know what ur buyers nail size is?

What size lint free wipes do you have ? Or do you have a link to those thanks

What is that green gel in the 12:30 time stamp. And for what it is used

I’m in the beginning stages of making and selling press-ons.. Can you elaborate more on the packaging and shipping. Also what nails do you use for your sizing kits? ( are you using the same nails as you sell as sets or do you buy completely separate ones.) Hopefully that makes sense lol.

Wait that's smart....if you can get cheaper nails that are the exact same measurements as the actual ones you use, you don't have to waste the good ones on sizing kits

Hey! Your videos really help out but I’m still really confused with the nail sizes.. I want to set up standard sizes for my small press on nail business but I’ve been getting frustrated at the sizing.. I’ve seen some people have a XS as T:14mm P:10mm M:11mm R:10mm P:8mm And have like the nails set up going down from either 14mm to either 8mm-7mm but I’m ruining to an issue of the measurements for some of the nails 0-11 being the same sizes but completely different sizes on the nail.. for example my 0 nail will show as 14mm and my 1 nail will show up as 14.1mm which really makes no sense.. how did you measure your nails to start setting up standard sizings? Did you run into the same problem? Sorry if my explanation made no sense .. I’ll try to rephrase it if you see this

try to evaluate which posts do better than others and replicate that. The more you can be objective about your own content (would you click on it if it was someone else’s post?) the better youll be able to identify areas for improvement. Also know that it does take a long time to build so keep posting and engage! you got this!

I like u ur nails and stuff but 60 dollars for press ons is wild.

Wow you are talking about how to fulfill orders and you have no time to make them..
