💅 Gel Nail Tips with Kokoist Gelip
The micro tapered has to be one of my favorites as well as the acrylic shaper . Very informative I usually have to soak off and start a new gel x set every time . I’ll definitely be getting the gel kit 😁
Thank you! Let us know how your process goes!
Thank you very much! So helpful. I am a new technician and need more of these videos.
We're so glad that you found it helpful 🥰 You'll definitely be seeing more in the future 🙌
Absolutely loved this video!

I'm glad that it was helpful 🥰
Very informative, will be ordering additional bits!!
Happy to help! We appreciate you!
ps. Thank you, Melanie, excellent prep and application tutorial.
I love the time & expense saving tips! Also, I now have “Eye of the Tiger” stuck in my head.
Haha hopefully it motivates you through the day, Anna!
Is that regular UV clear gel polish that you're using to adhere the fake nail to her nail bed?
The gel is a part of the system! It's a base.
Can I ask why are you removing the tip each time instead of prepping the new growth and adding builder to the back?
We show that technique as well in some other gel tip refill videos! Refilling a tip works too, after a certain number of refills though, techs may opt to start over with a new tip.
What company makes these tips?
could you use the crosscut or the flip cylinder instead of the sanding band? I have the MT 20 efile what speed or slider position should I be in?
Love learning with Erica! For gel extensions, can we use a builder gel type product to do a back-fill or do clients need new extensions each time?
Yes, you can do that too! We'll have a video posted next week regarding a fill with gel- stay tuned!
At which step do you seal the cuticle? what does flushing the cuticle mean? How do you seal cuticle?
Sealing the cuticle is going to be during product application, essentially applying the product close the cuticle, but not close enough to where it floods. Flushing the cuticle is essentially cleaning out that area and opening the nail plate more 🙌
@@EricasNails thank you. I recently tried Gel tips for the first time. After all fingers were cured, and before color application, the technician went around my cuticles with the e-file she called that sealing the cuticle. It sounds like that isn’t necessary in this process?
@@EricasNails is flushing done during cuticle work?
I have to the T-Rex bit.
nice!
Is the T-rex bit coarse or xtra coarse grit?
It's not measured by coarseness but it's flutes are designed for soft gel tips, though!
What bit would you recommend for sealing/flushing the cuticle?
The Erica's Acrylic Shaper carbide bit is ideal for that! ericasata.com/collections/carbide-bits/products/acrylic-shaper
@@EricasNails what speed would we use when sealing the cuticle with the acrylic shaper bit?
@@xoxoyc 15-20,000 RPM would be ideal with the Erica's Acrylic Shaper bit!
