The purpose of school is just to help you pass the test to get your license. Kinda like driving school. Their main priority is to show you the basics and sanitation, but you will learn mostly by trial, error, and experience. I've had my license for 3 years now and I love watching these edicational video and I actually had a GREAT instructor! Good luck ladies!

I've watched a few acrylic tutorials now and all of them say "pick up a nice sized bead". This means nothing to someone trying to learn. Thank you so much for taking the time to not just explain what to do, but HOW to do it. A little bit of theory and technique go a long way.

I feel like I should have paid to watch this! What a perfect beginners tutorial! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge and pristine technique with us ❤️

Ok, I need to tell you this. I just did my own nails for the second time ever. I watched some other tutorials before i did it for the first time. Result: 4 brushes messed up, big lumps on my nails, needed almost an hour to file them all down to something halfway decent. flooded cuticles, some already lifted the same day. Cut myself twice while filing. Watched this yesterday. Pretty proud of my nails now. Not perfect, but pretty good for the second time. Brush still OK. No cuts, decent cuticles, filing done in minutes. Thank you so much! Seriously, thank you!

crucial information. some nail techs don't like DIY'ers bringing down the industry with shoddy work, not knowing the health and safety, stealing trade from those who have worked hard to qualify. I love that you help educate us so at least we're doing our own properly. you're video's have been very valuable to me. I've been doing my nails for 6 month's now. After my miscarriage my beautiful pregnancy nails disappeared, causing another reminder of my grief of looseing my little girl. so I decided to do something about it. now when I look at my nails, I see achievement, pride, creativity, a sense of purpose, a outlet, a hobby, a possible profession. it's helped me recover somewhat. you have helped aid that process. THANK YOU.

First of all, so sorry about your baby. Been there, It hurts! On to the topic of nails. If you can do your own in a safe, sanitary way-go for it. Please don't do anyone else's unless trained. It's really not about how they look. It's about safety and sanitation, honestly. That being said, if you enjoy it and feel you are talented, then by all means get training and make it your profession. We need talented people in the industry. You will gain a sense of pride in your profession and meet a lot of wonderful ladies. There are student loan programs . Don't be afraid. Go for it. A career and sense of purpose can really help in regaining yourself. I am opening a nail salon in the Phoenix, AZ area. USA. If you are interested, I will hire you right out of school and train you further. If you are not in my area, I'm sure others will give you an opportunity. Best of luck to you!

That's the exact same reason I do nails now too. 😔 it sucks that we can't have our angels here with us while we enjoy this hobby. It's been a year but feels like last week.

We didn't have any kind of instruction 30 something years ago, we just had to middle our way through and the brushes were crap in all honesty. Kirsty if we had access to instructors that were like you it would have been a huge game changer for careers. I'm 50something and I'm shocked at how much I didn't know, your a great instructor thank you.

This is the first video I watched after frantically trying to figure out how to do my own acrylics. This video didn't just show me how to do it, it showed me what I was doing wrong. Small details I kept over looking and after watching why my brush kept going crazy on me and why I was not seeing the smoother application all the videos showed me....I FINALLY GOT IT. Instantly loved this channel after watching! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH

I'm a nail tech and I was never taught how to pick up a bead accurately I've been so frustrated because I know it's not right because I go through so many brushes too. Thank you for doing this I really appreciate it.

You know I just had this hilarious idea. You should have the camera man try your basics and see if he can do the perfect bead. That would be fun to see haha!!

watched this and did my first set ever...they came out perfect! I even managed to encapsulate chunky glitter. I love this woman and this channel. never leaving lol

I need to try this! I tried acrylics for the first time today in class and it was a nightmare I was embarrassed and my teacher embarrassed me in front of the client I wish I got taught better but thank God you explained it more throughly I paid the school and learn more from you lol Thank you for the skills and techniques you show ❤️

You are the best nail tech teacher I've ever come across on this platform. I owe you a drink whenever am in the UK! Thank you so much, God bless.

I’m trying to start doing nails on my own and this really helped !

Thank you for this very informative video. I been a licensed nail tech for 36 years and have been to numerous acrylic classes. This is the first time I have been shown the angle of brush for bead size, why patting into powder is wrong, and the importance of wiping off brush. Just goes to show you CAN teach an old dog new tricks. Your video explained to me more indept than any 8 hour class ever did. Now I need a speed class, lol.

Finally, I know what I'm doing wrong. Hopefully no more ruined brushes for me. Great video 💜

THANK YOU!! You are the first that I've found to explain, in-depth, HOW to achieve different beads and the purpose of each.

I want to go to nail school but I hear so much about how nail schools are not teaching properly and hate the fact of paying big bucks and not being taught the right way. I have even gone to different nail spas and noticed that they always have the same problems you talk about in this video, of course, I did not know any better I thought it was normal. But I have been in so much interest to learn. I had a recent surgery and I am unable to do much these days so I came across your ideos, I have watched them and are GREAT! Thank you for that. I am hoping to learn the basics and sit around with mainly friends to get more experience (not as a profession, but just to socialize and spend time with friends. I clicked subscribed as I am eager to learn more while recuperating. You do such a great job and the explanation is so detail and thorough. Thank you so much!

This was great. The best I've seen about ratios.

I always have ended up with a bunch of powder in my monomer! I'm so glad you made this video! Nice to learn tips for basic application! ! ty ty ty

This is a great video for a visual learner like myself. Especially when you showed the distance in dragging of the brush into the acrylic. Thank you so much & many blessings.

Very helpful. I learnt things just watching your video that I was never explained in my course 6 years ago. So for 6 years I was doing everything you said NOT todo. Thanks so much for your amazing videos they have helped me grown in my nail career. Your my nail inspiration xx

fantastic tutorial, Kirsty! the detailed explanations along with each technique demonstration really is EXACTLY the net best thing to learning in person. I think it is very important to understand not just how to mechanically do something, but also why the technique works. the additional demonstration of the most common error(s) and why they create compounded problems is also helpful. thank you, Naio & Kirsty for this helpful and educational tutorial!

I can’t express enough how helpful this was!!

Omgggg I’ve just started doing acrylics 3 days ago and I keep getting a sticky brush and beads that won’t release freely AND NOW I KNOW WHY!! Thank you almighty Kirsty, I owe you my sanity. And my brush owes you it’s life

This is the best, most straight forward tutorial that actually explains exactly how to do it. I learnt so much & can’t wait to practice

I've been qualified for three years and have noticed the past few months that I've been going through brushes too fast, but I could not seem to understand why. Now I know. I've not been cleaning my brush often enough in between bead application. Also, I wasn't taught in school the proper way to pick up a bead simply because my instructor did not know the proper way to pick up a bead. She used to drive me crazy swirling the tip of her brush into the powder! She never had the proper liquid to powder ratio and she never had a proper sized bead to show us anything! I literally sat in class and watched KZread nail videos to learn; a video like this would have made things so much easier for me back then! Thanks very much, Kirsty, you're an amazing teacher.

@negautrunks

5 жыл бұрын

@@suzycrofts1428 you probably have too much monomer (liquid) in your brush, you need to drain it out by holding your brush to the top inside of your monomer container for a little bit, then picking up the bead a little bit faster (maybe), but we can't know for sure without seeing what you're doing

Another lesson learned, thank you Kirsty!! ❤ You're the BEST! 😄💅

Been looking at videos the last couple of days since getting my kit since I wanted to do it right before just jumping in-this is by FAR the best educational no bullshit video I've have found. Thanks so much.

This is the absolute most helpful acrylic application tutorial I've seen. I recently started doing my own nails and this is the only youtube video (out of the hundred or more that i've watched) that gives details about bead size and wetness.

That was fantastic! Best tutorial I have ever seen. So informative and thorough. You are a wonderful teacher/nail artist. Thank you thank you! I am now a complete fan :)

Wow I went to nail school for no reason. I have been doing nails for a few years and always wondered what I was doing incorrectly and I cannot thank you enough for providing us with incredible content, you are a such a talented & lovely woman. ♥️

i am a student learning to do nails and i feel like quitting and watch your videos. youre such a good teacher

Thank you so much. I'm just learning, self-taught through youtube (only on myself you'll be relieved to hear). You have just answered every question about where I'm going wrong. They look alright in the end but it takes me about an hour and a half on average and then loads of filing. I am currently going through a new brush every application and soooooo much monomer. This will save me so much money. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

You are an amazing teacher. You are so patient and your voice is very pleasant to hear. Thank you. #newfan

Thank you for going into proper detail instead of just saying “this is a wet bead, this is a dry bead, this is a good bead. Okay you know all about beads now” like most tutorials. I did my own acrylic nails for the first time and wow it was hard lol

FINALLY!! I've watched several videos of how to do acrylic nails and you're the first who explained why you wet and wipe the brush again when you brush the acrylic. Thank you for explaining everything, you are awesome!!

I truly appreciate the videos you do showing how you do what you do. I do not do nails professionally, but I do my own nails, and I am always looking for something new to do. I don't use much acrylic. But thanks to you, I want to try. I got started doing my nails because I wanted my natural nail to grow. I got gel polish & UV light and it helped to firm them up enough to grow on their own. I absolutely love my nails now, and I do new designs almost every 1-2 weeks. I love you designs and I am no where near as talented as you, but I have been able to use some of the techniques to get the desired look I wanted. Thank you for you time and effort and sharing what you do with all of us.

This video is so good, you explain everything perfectly!! thank you xx

Very educational. I'm a nail esetitcian and I sure wasent taught like this. Thank you for taking the time out to make a video like this!! Love ya girl!! Keep it glossy! ;)

I watched this video about a week ago because i had major questions about what i was doing wrong. I'm completely self taught, so i assumed that was why. This was so helpful. Ive had acrylics for years and i used to go to a salon, but due to some health issues i lost my job and had to start dling my own again. This video is wonderful. I was confused at first, but applying what was taught was easy for me. My nails look better than i have ever done them before. Thank you so much for this video!
