Thank you, Liz! My eyes usually glaze over with the quasi-science spouted off on many health and beauty videos, but when you started talking LED vs. CFL and wavelengths in nm necessary for curing different gels, you had my attention. I am so pleased to finally find someone in the beauty industry who correctly explains the science in terms anyone can understand. As an engineer, this warms my heart. Specifically, you answered my question as to why so many manufacturers were claiming UV/LED when all I saw in their lamps were LEDs. You also cleared up my confusion on different types of gels and why some lamps work better than others with them. So again, THANK YOU! Keep up the good work, and keep nerding it up for people like me!
LOVE this video- very informative- you answered alot of great questions people always ask! Awesome Deep Dive - thank you LIZ 💜
Will a 36w u/v led light cure CND Shellac , if so for how long?
Nail Career Education Awww LOVE THIS ♥️
@@MessageinaBottles no way. Just put aluminum foil shiny side up and visible. Just needs something for light to bounce off of to get all angles. But u shouldn't throw it out. Hope it works out for you. Im not a pro or anything but I do believe this would work.
What lamp is good for acrylic?? I'm running out of videos to research. Everything talks about Gel. 😉😎
@@MessageinaBottles I am certain that it is not actually 84 w at all. They just claim that to sell the lamp
I’m totally new to the nail world and I’m only researching to do my own nails at home, not to become a nail tech or anything but I’m just amazed at how extensively knowledgable you are on these topics. It’s incredible and SO informative!!!
* -me trying to figure out what gel nail polish lamp to get on amazon without knowing shit about nails- *
👁👄👁❓❔❓
Literally me
I list bought 1 for 6 bucks that works fine. But its my portable one thats has USB to use with battery saver block thing. Bit it's 36 watts not the little 9 watt ones. Lol. I have 3 others as well that all work fine for years and have never spent over 15$ on any one of them.
Me too 😅
Liz, thank you so much for this video, as well as taking the time to do this series of nail fundamentals. You are an amazing teacher, & these videos have clarified many of the issues that I've been having or just didn't know. Your passion for all things nail related really shows, & I greatly appreciate the informative & concise manner in which you share your knowledge! ♥️
I just wanted to say thank you so much for putting out these educational videos! You and Susie have both really been a huge help to me as I’m learning to do my own nails, as well as my mom’s. You guys are so great!
Thank you! You have no idea how much your helping me. It's unbelievable even to me. Your a fantastic teacher, and I appreciate you and your knowledge .
I can't wait for you to touch on the subject of dust collectors. I have one that's a nightmare. I honestly think that I wear half the dust as does everything thing else in the 3-4 foot range. I've been trying to find the best one at an affordable price. Thank goodness I wear a mask.
Thank you! I did nails for 20 years thru 80s and 90s. I wish we had the gel nails. So now I’m wanting to do my own and need to learn the basics. This helped so much!
Omg!! So glad I clicked on your video! I needed this education!! Thanks for your hard work and research.
I have no words... I just love you! Thank you so much for sharing!
Liz, I loved watching this video! You have such a lovely way of explaining things. Really informative . Thank you
Glenda 🇬🇧
I love the level of detail in this video answering all my questions about the different type of lamps.
thank you for this video
Your videos are immensely informative!! Thank you so much for posting these!
Thank you for posting this:) 💜 Your depth of knowledge speaks to your investment in your craft as an educator :)
This may be a video from 4 years ago, but here I am in January 2023 finding this video so very useful in ansering my question on UV lamps V UV Led lamps!! ! Halleluja!! After much searching I found your video, and you have managed to answer all of my questions.....thank you very much! 💞
Finally, a 'proper' explanation of the lamps!!! Thank you!!
I am so grateful to have access to this channel. It’s literally like THE most comprehensive “HUB” for all things nails🙏🏼😁
Another great one, Liz! Again, I'm not a nail tech, but am so interested in the whys and hows of things. Your tutorial on the application of base coat has REALLY made a difference for me in the length of time my own polygel manis last! My prep has improved 100%, so that my natural nail is suffering much less damage in the process too. Thank you so much for all you do! I had recently heard that UV LED lamps were "basically the same thing", but your explanation is so much better! Thank you! (also, I LOVE that you love Simons cat. lol)
OMG... Thank you Liz. You just explained why my thumb didn't cure right when I did my nails the last time. I have arthritis and my thumb does turn, so when I cured the outside nail wall didn't cure and I got waves in the gel there. Thank you so much, so now I can be extra careful with my thumbs to save time and headache. You rock!
This was so helpful! I had no idea that all lamps were UV! I understood this well with your amazing explanation skills 😂😂 Thank you so much.
Very good video....I now need to see more. I enjoy you “client focused” tips!
Great information Liz! Love these videos!

Thank you love love love your videos for sharing your knowledge. I've learned so much from your video!!
You're excellent the way you exain and very thorough. You're the BEST!🥰
Super helpful lesson in lamps! I love my hybrid but wish I’d seen this before I started experimenting on different types. Thanks!
Excellent topic! Thank you for sharing! I have shared you on my website so that other nail techs will find this! ☺
Very informative!! Thank you!! I will definately take this knowledge on my next purchase.😊
Phenomenal information, you explained everything quite scientifically but also in layman's terms. Great job, loved this video!!!!

You're an angel💖👼
Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge. I love ALL your videos!
Thank you for sharing this! Sharing you on my f.b. Page to send other techs to you! This is great!
Great info! Really explained to the best. Thanks
Totally agree with you on investing in the best lamp you can afford.I have been down that road of getting the cheaper ones thinking it would cure any gel but I was in for some unpleasant surprises.
Great video.Thank you!
Mimi Pool so which one do you recommend?
I love all your videos. They are so informative!
This was great I love it....get educational...very thankful...would love to see more

Excellent video, I love how intelligent you are, but still able to speak in lament terms to your audience. Excellent!
Good grief! I really learned so much on lamps. Not only to cure but to dry. Thank you so much for this tutorial.
Super educated, and from what I know right on. Love how your brain works! Great video.
Omg, this series is the best! Alwwaays teach me something neew!
I am so so so glad I saw this video!! Today I was in the market for a professional grade lamp and decided at the last min to do some research in RUclips to help me select a good lamp. Learning all the detailed info you explain in your video helped me select a great lamp! I just purchased the KOKOIST lamp :) so excited because I’m sure this will speed up curing time on my nail services! As a beginner this will help me speed up my service time!! So so excited! Thank you! And btw your makeup is always flawless!
Just love the way you explain, thank you 😊
Daaaamn right im becoming a smarter nail tech because of your educational videos!! Thank you once again! Answered so many questions i had!
Wonderful educated tutorial, love it!
Wow - thank you for this detailed information!
Smart girls rock! Thank you for the info!!
Hello Liz. I just got my first gel manucure at a salon and I am 58 years old. I was not impressed. Although shiny...it was so bumpy it's not funny and had to have clear over top. I went to a different salon after 5 days because I was so unhappy and they took those off because they were all lifting and did it again and they were lovely and smooth. I want to do this myself now and found you. I have watched several of your videos and wanted to say thankyou for sharing such great value. I am ordering my lamp and some gel today so I can start doing overlays. So excited that people like you are here to help us on this journey. Loving your videos. Thank you so much.
I was thinking about purchasing a cheap lamp but I'm now going to make sure I invest in proper equipment because you've taught me the difference. Thank you :) Great video
First time I’ve watched one of your videos. Amazing. I’ve been trying to figure out the difference between led & uv. Now I know my lamp is led.
Loved the science and my daughter loves your pop vinyls. Definitely subscribing
Thank you vert mutch for a super informativ video😍 I love listening to you😀❤️
Great tutorial, it’s like a science lesson. I’m not a nail professional but I understood everything said. 👍
Another great video and tons of information ... Lamps do make a major difference
Excellent and informative class. Looking forward to more. Good job!
This was so informative. Thank you!
LOVE LOVE LOVE! Your so knowledgeable and cute to look at! 😁
Wow, this video was so informative. You explained things I didn't know I should even be asking! Thank you so much for this video ❤
Extremely informative, very in-depth tutorial. U explain everything so everyone can understand. Helped me understand why things were happening to me, why my nails weren’t curing. Great job! Great 👍 Keep it up 👏 Tyvm
Love your little collection in the background. Love these videos. Thank you!
I love the background, and also her T shirt. Not sure what it is, but I kind of want one. lol
Hi Becky, I have several different brands or gel polishes and my lamp is not from either brand. So as long as you have a good (not expensive and i have both a cheaper one i started with which i still love but small and an expensive one) and work for every polish. As long as you do the 1min or so cure. I at times cure longer. Good luck.
Thank you so much for your very informative video. I wish that I had seen it before I had brought the CFL lamp back in the summer.
Thank u so much for making this video. I feel like I understand lamps now.😁
Awesome very informative..... Thanks a million I'm learning a lot😍👍
Nice videos! Very informative and you're very knowledgeable 👍🏻👍🏻
I’m almost in tears, I’m so grateful for your videos. I live in a province with no regulations on certification for nail techs, but it’s the license that soft-blocks me from buying quality gel products. There are schools and programs where I live, but I’ve heard poor things about the information they give, and it’s not feasible for me to attend anyway. But I’m smart, I know how to do research, and I’m dedicated to making sure I can give myself and others beautiful nails while also being sanitary and safe about it.
I’m so grateful for these videos because advice and information from professionals who’ve been there is priceless, and not something I would otherwise have access to outside of a certification setting.
This video made me look at the bulbs on my lamp. Lol thank you! Xoxo
Thank you, you help with alot great info!
This video is a salvation for me. I'm just in the process of buying lamp for my GF and as somewhat technical type I was geting crazy from the amount of nonsense written everywhere. Usually nobody from sellers or people in discussions and articles really understand the most basic terms you were talking about. Especially informations about wavelenghts is lacking all the time. And all articles are full of misinformation. It drivers me crazy. Thank you for clearing all out and restoring my hope there is somebody competent in this field :-D
Thank you so so so so so much for this video! I’ve fairly new to the diy nail scene because of the CoViD19 closings of businesses in my area and I have been hesitant to buy a nail lamp because I didn’t know much about them and didn’t want to buy lamp after lamp after lamp and not have success with my UV gels. Your video was so informative and was exactly what I needed! You’re so smart and I can’t wait to try the in-out-upside down with my sisters when I finally decide on a lamp! I didn’t even know they had hybrids! Liz you’re amazing and I can’t wait to explore the rest of your fundamental playlist! Much love!
-Rozelyn
I appreciate how through this is! Very scientific! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Thanks 🙏 u explained very well and got to know soo much about lamps and stuff…. 💅
Thank you so much for the very informative video!
your videos are so so so informative, I´ve learned so much. Thank you.
I am so glad I watched this video. I had so many issues last time I did gel polish and now I know that it was because I must not have aligned my fingers with the led bulbs.
Thank you Liz for a brilliant video, how you managed to speak so fluently, and with such knowledge, without once looking down at pre written notes has astounded me. A very very interesting video, I'll be watching it over and over again because your clear and concise explanations are so very valuable, especially for the newbies, and us oldies lol - I'm 75 and still working every day, I love it and have been a nail tech for 30+yrs and a teacher for about 15yrs, yet you told me things I didn't know BUT should have. Thank you, a great great video. Warm regards from across the pond Xv
Thank you so much Vicki! Cheers!
@@TheNailHub what is the brand of the best light?thanks
So informative, thank you!
Thank you for sharing all your knowledge about lamps it will definitely help me with curing gels on my clients
Love all your info, tfs🌼
wow I love you vídeo and I know that's this video was done a year ago I was wondering that info, and also the watts and the brand thank you very much for the information.
Watching & learning💗 I've already watched this educational vid but I always come back lol 😁👍 If I've got a question I try to rewatch any video that I know you've answered 💕💖😍👍👏👏 Tysm!!
Thank you for that video! 😍😊
Thank you. Very thorough.
This is the best rabbit hole I’ve ever been down when I begin to obsess over something 😳🤯👏🏼
Thank you... much appreciated. Extremely interesting.
I just love you. I appreciate the in-depth chemistry information. It just makes me so happy and revived to be able to understand the facts. Thank you Liz. For a licensed cosmetologist that is also a busy mother and wife, I don’t have the time or extra money to attend classes that provide information such as this. Now that I fully understand this information on lamps, I’m going to send back my $25 Amazon lamp I just got and save up for that Kokoist lamp!!! Lol. Yay thank you again!
To be completely honest, she is a Kokoist distributor, so of course she has to tell everyone how awesome these are to sell them. A 25 dollar lamp does cure as well. I never had any uncured products with the cheaper lamps! Never
@@wioi omg, this is a rotten comment. She sells more than just kokoist and she's not telling you that your gels won't cure in a $25 lamp, she very clearly explained the difference, you apparently just didn't watch the video.
Wow! I'm a male in early 60s and found your technical explanation about UV and LED very well put. I'm not into doing nails, BTW, but just stumbled onto this video while researching LED UV lights. I'm also an electrical engineer, so I understand about wavelength and such. I'm not sure if you mentioned it, but the wavelength differences are grouped into UVA, UVB and UVC, where my understanding is that there is no LED with UVC in existence, thus requiring the specific formula gel for LED lamps. I may not be into nails, but I have a young daughter who is starting to experiment with nails. I might see one of these lamps around the house in the near future.😄
This video has been very informative. One smart lady. this helped me to figure out which lamp id prefer. Which one is the safest also.
Thank you again! Really educational video!!! I always have a misconception about UV and LED. And I don’t use the term “bake” or “cure” with my client. I usually use “cook” 😂
Thanks for making me into a smart nailtech!
I totally love these videos and I am learning new tips and tricks from each one. I am not a professional but I have being doing my own gel nails for 4 1/2 years and I have a cheap drug store lamp. Can you suggest a good quality lamp that a non professional can buy?
Super helpful and informative thank you! Do you have a particular way of figuring out/remembering the cure time of different brands?
Your info is very very helpful. Thank you.
EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT video, GREAT info and content. Plus the bonus is your a tad bit funny. Thank you for the video.
This video is amazing!!
Great video! I thought the heat/burning sensaueas only due to a tech over drilling/filing the natural nail
Hi again. Ive been watching your vids over and over as im trying to fully understand. This video is amazing. Can you please tell me where the watts comes in? My lamp states 48w thank you again.
