    You literally taught me how to do acrylic nails!!!!!! I started doing my own nails because I was tired of getting jacked up at nail salons, so I bought the equipment and found you( and then the pandemic started so I had more time those days). I’m literally so grateful for you , plus you’re a successful black woman with a great spirit!!!

    Thank you so much for this video! I started with Apres Gel X nail kit. My daughter and I have done several sets and are now out of several of the sizes. I've noticed the prices on the nail tips alone has gone up almost $3 per box.... I am looking for a "dupe" to continue this self love/care pattern with my baby girl. Going to the salon to have nails done is just not something I can or WILL budget, especially when I can do them at home and not feel like I am getting talked about amongst the techs like I know happens so often. Immediately followed you! Thanks again so much and be blessed!

    Really like the nail shapes and length on you, prior to shaping. But than again, I love all of the styles and shapes and length of nails you wear! And I also really enjoy how you change it up and manis on your natural nails and when all the ways you build them and tips you use. Get variety that you show, like there isn’t anything wrong with other DIYs that have found their shape that works best for them and length. But it really is nice to see all of the many different ways you do it.

    • @beccaweston5372

      I use the beetles gel kit and I had my nails on for 3 weeks. However - I did use different tips because I wasn't a fan of the beetles nail shape from the kit I got. I used the gel glue and light from the beetles kit and I used beetles polish, no chips and only very little lifting on 2/10 nails at the end of the three weeks.
      Also super important is the nail prep - clean, buff to add traction, clean again no soap and nail dehydrator first before application. I only removed them after the 3 weeks because I wanted to change it up and there were the 2 lifting a little. (likely my own application error though since the others were great still and it was only my second time using the kit.). I haven't tried this kit, but I love the beetles kit and I swear by their gel polishes and have been using them consistently for 2 years.

    Update on how long they last? I was looking at this kit but I'm skeptical and the lasting quality

    Hi, can you do a video showing us how to to a nail design with the florescent nail art the kit came with? I have this kit and don't know what to do with that stuff. Thanks 😊
