“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.

After ripping up my non-dominant hand these tutorials are very helpful. After reading some of the comments it's nice to know I'm not the only one that takes 3 hours to do my nails. This will take some time to perfect. Thank you YN
Totally normal! Your non dominant hand can be such a pain
Lol the first time I did my own acrylic nails and then painting them took me 8hrs!! 🤣🥴 🤦♀️ but I also used the tiny kiss acrylic brush that came with the kit 🤷♀️🙃but still
anyone else watching just to learn during quarantine?😂
lol
🙋🏽♀️
🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️

Love your calm approach to teaching a somewhat stressful technique! Thank you, Steph!
Welcome, thanks for watching
When I do nails on myself doing my dominant hand slows me down so much. I’d take 1.5 to 2 hours doing them on myself if my left was as good as my right. But instead it takes me 5 hours 😭
For sure it is definitely time consuming
I have spent all day working with my left hand on my right until I got it the way I wanted it once that was done the other hand was a doddle now working with the none dominant is getting so much easier I forget how difficult it was when I first started doing my own nails.
They are by no means up to professional standards but they pass muster
This was me last night 😂😭🤪
Omg!! I thought I was the only one that took 5 hrs on doing my own nails. It definitely is time consuming, but it is also really rewarding when I get asked where I get them done at. We should be able to become better with time. 😊
Maritza Laboy I agree. It’s nice to be able to say I do my own nails when someone asks me
I also mostly move my right hand (dominant) and keep my "working" non dominant left hand still :D Makes it less shaky and less stressful imo!
For sure
I think most these steps we’re all familiar with but the game changer for me... starting with ur non-dom! I just put on a fresh set and starting with my non-dom made all the difference I needed. It was just a matter of havIng more patience with my left. Even when I do my right hand first there are always little things I have to correct or perfect so by the time I switch to my left I have already lost most of my patience. Starting with my non-dom allowed me start with my patience fully intact hence allowing me to be more precise. This is the first set Ive done on myself that my left came out looking just about as good as my right!! A sincere thanks!
Exactly! A much more tolerable experience when you start with your hard hand and just get it out of the way
When I went to nail school, (we only used acrylics)( 1999) my dear instructor constantly reminded us, IF YOU CAN DO BOTH HANDS ON YOURSELVES, YOU CAN DO ANYTHING "!! She was so right! Now the efile,on yourselves... thats a whole new challenge! We didnt have an efile back then! c
Haha such a great way to think about it.
This is great! I also do my non dominant hand first (the hard one first to get it over with). Your videos are always very informative and helpful. Thank you so much!
Im so glad I can work with my non dom hand,. Tricky sometimes, especially doing artwork. But taking your time is key, also practice of corse, but y'all know that already, . Xxx 💜
Left-handed thank you for teaching me how to balance my hands when working with my right hand 🤚
Welcome
I always do nails of my dominant hand like this but with soft or hard gel. Now I know I was doing the right way. ♥️
Yess! 🙏
Hi. Can you maybe please do a video doing a ballerina shape on someone who has wide nail bed.
More videos coming daily!
@@youngnailsinc can't wait🥰
I have to say there’s a certain comfort in knowing even professionals can sometimes struggle.
Great tips, I will try them. Which acrylic are you using? I use the ELO and it is setting up so fast, hard to get used too.
This is an older video of our so it's acrylic from our original line of acrylic with the pink labels.
tysmfs 😉
I'm just learning,so I really appreciate it ✌️
❤️❤️
I’m newer to doing my own nails. By far YN Nail videos have been the most helpful! Thank you! 💕
❤️❤️
I probably shouldn't be saying this on a yongnails channel, given they're all about the acryliic...but, if you want to practice using your non-dominant hand, polygel is awesome for that. It gives you all the practice time you need because it doesn't set until you put it in the led lamp. That's what I did so that when I finally made the switch to acrylic, I was pretty good at doing both hands.
That's great that that worked for you
@@youngnailsinc Thx guys! By the way, I would die without your Protein Bond!!!
Im right handed but i work exactly as if i were a left handed person when working on my dominant hand I'm completely ambidextrous when doing my nails but I can't write with my left hand for crap how does that make sense lol
lol totally
Forget the video for a minute and let's admire what's on your nails, it's absolutely stunning! What is it if you are able to let me know thanks! Edit:just finished the video, what is the blue on top is it a gel polish or a pigment?
Haha thank you, They were Romance vs reality with maniQ glacier 101 over the top
@@youngnailsinc they are gorgeousss
@@youngnailsinc wish u showed us what u used on top
@@youngnailsinc beautiful, thanks for replying!
Happy new year
Your such a sweet pea Steph! Enjoy your super chill style! So glad you are part of YN’s team! Hugs
I miss habib saying right now on nail school 😜😂LOL!!👍🏼🎉🎭
lol
Same, you need to get on it habib!
I love the color on your nails, beautiful. 🦋💅💅💅💅🦋
Thank you! 🤗
Doing the non-dominant hand first is a wise tip.
For sure
I’m just a diyer but I have tried using my non dominant hand, my left hand, for a lot of other things such as eating so that filing wouldn’t feel quite so alien to me. It helped a little but I too move my right hand while holding the file still with my left. Tfs
Haha practicing outside of nails, I like that idea
The alert face theoretically spare because felony greely like near a psychotic landmine. tender tense, sore cocktail
Thanks for this video.....I've been struggling with this!!!!😄😄😄
Welcome
I do mine the same way, my father was a lefty, I'm a righty so I learned to do some things with both hands. I've just recently bought some polygels, the hand done with my non dominant hand came out better than my other hand. I made a couple of slight mistakes, but overall I'm very happy with the results. Thank you Steph for the time you've taken to show us how you do your dominant hand with your non dominant hand. Happy New Year to you all at YN's wishing you all a blessed 2020. 😘💖💅
Thank you for watching! Happy new year to you as well
Thank you for making this for us control freaks that need to do our own nails hehe ❤️😝I took over doing my own nails about 10 months ago b/c I was run into way to much lifting at a neck break pace right after the service( not my doing) and a month ago I just started to feel comfortable using my left hand. And I noticed it’s b/c I naturally/unconsciously started using my right hand to still do most of the work for me as your presenting here. I have way more control now, especially with my drill, I’m not nicking/cutting myself with the bit, and my right hand nails are coming out looking as if my right hand did them. It now takes a month using your guy’s products before I even start to see the tinniest bit of lifting if any at all. YAY!! 👏
❤️❤️ That's awesome, good for you
Holy hell, looks easier on the video...practice makes perfect 😬 #TEAMYN
For sure
I feel like sometimes my least dominant hand does a better job🤣
I'm left handed so doing my left hand it always came out trashy so I'd do it again and again til it looks similar to my right hand
For sure
I am left handed and i didn't see it as a non dominant hand video. I saw it as a tutorial. You explained so nice and clear. Thank you so much Steph. ❤💕
Haha nice! You are welcome
How u work with ur Non dominant Hand all with Colour Powders ... a Marble or Colour Blocking!?
I have an other question: Nail Techs told, that u sell only to Professionell and now i want to know, if it's enough, when i'm a zertificated Nail Tech, but i don't have my owen Nail Salon ... can i buy in ur Shop only with the Zertification and i live in Vienna/Austria!?🤔 Thank's for ur helpful Videos, have a nice day and send u much greetings from Vienna!❤🙋🏻♀️😍💅👍🏻
Believe your closest distributor would be Young Nails UK
I do the hand switching to pick up gel too! getting pretty good as lefty 😉
Nice
Perfect timing. Great advice of patience I tried to do mine the other day but rushed myself. Not a good idea.
Yea definitely takes practice
Could hardly wait for this video! ❤to you ALL.
❤️❤️
The YN Safey Bit is my best friend when doing my own nails. 💯
❤️❤️
Great video !! ♥️ what is the glitter she has on all the other nails called?
the first time I did my own nails my dominant hand looked like sh**, I was shaking all over the place. unfortunately I did my non dominant hand first, in a dark color - bad choice! my dominant hand looked as if a 3-year old painted it, so for the next 3-4 times I didn't use any dark or red colors, just stuck to nude. now, about a year later, my dominant hand actually looks better than the other one cause I concentrate much more. the more you do it, the better you will get, even with the e-file, you'll work out a way that works for you and you will get more comfortable each time. it still takes 3 hours to do my nails, but it's well worth the time. it's obvious that it takes longer, cause you can't work on the other hand while one is in the lamp, as you could at your nail tech and if you're trying to rush you'll mess up anyway. so take your time, don't try to hurry up and have fun while doing it!
Doing my own nails is both a joy and a pain. I love doing nails, but it takes me 3-4 hours because of my freakin non-dominant hand. So aggravating.
How do you stop shaky hands
Thank you that help me a lot
Do you have a dip color like Romance vs reality? That is the bomb! If not, please make one, stat!! 😬
Brute would probably be the closest, but it's not quite the same.
I literally just started learning how to sculpt nails and on my self and I do but also dont mean to toot my own horn but man it was scary how easily and naturally I became a self taught pro. Every time I had an issue or thought I was doing something wrong I came to this channgel to help me and EVERY TIME I was doing everything right and am so blown away by how easy nails are to do. Should it really be this easy or should is start looking in to nails as a career? Not kidding when I say I learned to sculpt in 2 weeks on my self no practice finger or client.
This was really helpful thanks .. I’ve been getting better but it makes sense to let the “right” hand do the work. Thanks
People ask me this all the time, how do you work on your other hand, and really all I can say, the only answer I have is: I just do it 🤷🏼♀️ 😅 but good tips 👍
Thanks for the video. ♥️🦋💅💅💅💅💅💅💅
What is the name of the glitter polish that you have over Romance Vs Reality?
It is our maniq color Glacier 101.
I always cut myself when trying to file the right hand 😩
Make sure you are seasoning your files by dulling the edges with another file so you don't cut yourself.
I find it easier to move the finger not the tool
For sure
Thank you!
Are you using a left or right handed safely bit here?
I think it's a bit that goes both ways. Like when it's an x-cut you can go fwd and rvs. I only buy those. You can see it when you look closely at your bit, you should see the lines from both viewpoints.
Can you please tell me the color of your nail polish? 😻
She is using Romance vs Reality in this video. On her other hand she has Glacier 101 over that color.
Thank you very much for this video I’ll do it and I’ll keep practicing, video saved for keep watching it 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼💫💫💫 #teamyn
❤️❤️
Thanks Stephanie 💜
❤️❤️
Are you guys sure you are not a mind reader’s????
I just got crazy cut on my self 😂 ( of course I’m learning how to do everything with your videos)
Thank youuuuuuuuuu 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
❤️❤️
#LIFE🙌🏾
Nice!!
#teamyn
Thanks for the tip on moving my hand instead of the file
#Team YN
These videos are so helpful, thank u!!
#teamyn
I find my non dominant hand always come out better then the dominant. Only thing I’m not keen on is removing the acrylic on my non Dom as that and soak offs destroy my soul 😩🤣🤣
Totally agree to all of this haha
😮😮😊
very nicely done. its taken me for ever to do my non dominant hand because I seem to get Mt Everest on my nails by the time I'm done. lol
lol
I love that colour so much!! What colour is it please? Thanks so much for the tips ♥️😊
Romance vs reality
This video really helps
What happen to " Right now....on Nail School!" ??☹
Haha new videos coming daily
Beautifully done!!!
It should be similar to how some people know how to polish all their nails on their own.
For sure
You truly killed it !!
Takes practice
For sure
Here I am sitting with one hand done and not the other one cause I can’t do it 😂
Lol take your time, requires a lot of practice!
Great great tips. Thank you so much for this video.
❤️❤️

Suppose Robin is signing on or claiming welfare
👍🏽
Great instruction! Thank you! What Polish and glitter topcoat are you wearing?
Thank you!! It's called Romance vs Reality www.youngnails.com/1-3-oz-romance-vs-reality/
@@youngnailsinc thank you so much for responding! I enjoyed your in depth tutorial but ended up watching it again because your Polish and shape were so beautiful!
What is the glitter topcoat? There is a blue sparkle to it that is not the same directly out of the bottle.
I've got a question, obviously some of us are going to be slow at doing this, how or what acrylic can I use that wont dry right away?
Our core line is slower setting
Is the trick also keeping it a little wetter?
you’re so cool for replying to everyone.
hi lol.
You're the best, and thank you! Hello ❤️
Practice makes perfect we hope nail care
❤️❤️
You had glitter on your other nails and it is gorgeous. What is it called? I need it
Romance vs reality + maniQ glacier 101

Thank you.

Was that a left handed bit that you used Stef? I am also right handed, and only own right handed bits, will it damage my bit if I used it in reverse?
They make left handed bits? I didnt know that.. I seriously thought all bits and drills where for both lefty's and righty's.. bc even righty's switch there drill in reverse to go the other direction especially for cuticle work.. 3 yrs in the nail business and I had no ide about this lol I'm so uneducated lol thank you for bringing this to my attention hun.. learn something new everyday 😊
I'm sure that a cross bit goes both ways on the bit as in the lines/burrs cross over each other, that's why it's called that.
@@V.I.C. lf you look closer to your drill bits some lines/teeth go slanted so if you used it in a different direction like revers it wouldn't shave any product off,the nail hub has a few videos on this.
I don't think it will damage it if anything it just won't shave much product off if anything.
@@V.I.C. l was fascinated years ago when l found out you could buy left handed scissors, I'm a lefty so thought it was a joke at first lol!
Thank you!

😋👍
