I loved her slow but straight to the point teaching method doesn’t ramble about things to get you confused liked others do and her analogies makes so much sense you can picture yourself doing the techniques on your next set. Her voice wasn’t annoying and she was not a ham for the camera she was there to show you right from wrong I would love to see more from her👍🏼
I have to say I have watched hundreds of videos to learn the gel application and this is without a doubt the best one ever. She is very clear and concise and easy to understand. Thank you so much
It's funny I had no fear with gel , and acrylic scares me!! Actually it is the liquid monomer I can't handle the smell. I Love doing gel but if it wasn't for you Melissa and the team I wouldn't be where I am now!! Fantastic tips!!
No way I’m a total newbie like I just saw my sisters nails the other day and thought oh they look stunning so I just watched a couple of videos then ordered loads of stuff and now I’m like ok what now 😅 I’ve tried gel but am too scared to try acrylic, it’s funny we all have a fear of one or the other, I haven’t even tried acrylic yet 😅
Same here: I can’t stand the smell of monomer, so I absolutely hate acrylic nails. Also, many salons make them so thick, it’s crazy! 😱 Gel and Polygel are the best for me
Ty so much- great instruction & made sense- love that you're a perfectionist. I had someone look at my nails from my perspective once & it made such a difference!! ❤
This is one of my favorite type of videos. I love watching design work too, but these instructional videos full of tips and tricks are invainvaluable to me. I have learned SO MUCH from watching Young Nails videos. Also, I could watch Melissa talk about rocks and love it LOL! Thanks so much!!!!!
Hi im a complete beginner. Played guitar for 20years but health took its toll and my 41yr young son just passed away in September 2023 due to street valium, ptsd and anxiety. Got going on diamond art to focus my brain and decided to try and have nails in my older years. This video has me ready to jump right in without floats or arm bands. Thankyou so much xx 🎉❤❤❤❤❤🎉
@@mjaydelacruz8496 I would literally kill to be able to have my nails look like yours!! I am not a nail tech, only been doing my own for about 25 years but I am still not anywhere near on the level you are! Thank you for teaching us non-nail techs all of your secrets!
This is a brilliant tutorial, for anyone, whether qualified or not. I've been using an acrylic dip system for ages, as it seems to work well for my clients and myself, plus their is little no no smell. Although I've used gel in the past, I've steared away from it because it self levels an I found it runs into the side walls and cuticles. Thank you so much for this video, as you have shown me where I was going wrong. I was doing all 5 nails and laying down far too much gel then curing it and obviously leaving me a lot of time to get the best look for my clients. I'm definitely keen to get myself back into using gel again, and using my practice hand again (which I'm so glad I've kept!) Plus this will be another system to offer my clients. Thanks again xx
I’m know this video is from 2 years ago but it’s still very relevant. Great video! Thank you. I learned a lot of things I want aware of. Many nail channels skip steps which can make it confusing for those of us fairly new to gel. Thank you again. This was incredibly helpful! ❤❤❤
Melissa De La Cruz Girl I Luuuuve You To Mush 😍 You Are The Bomb, You And Tracey Have Been My Personal Gel Expert Teachers Yaaaas.You Ladies Teached Me Did My 1st Set Of Nails Feb 14,2021,No Lifting No Chipping, No Breaking And 4½ Months Later Still Have My Same Set Just Do Fills! Wow Verses When I Used To Get Them Done For The last 25 Years, At Times In 2 Days My Nails Be Lifting And Never Had My Nails For Months With No Lifting, Or Breaking.So To Me A Super Super Duper Plus Baybee Thank You Sending Blessings And Much Wuuuv 😍❤
Yess the smell is 🤢 and I'm also super allergic to monomer and pass it on to my mom if she touches something with monomer on it. I can't wait to start my gel journey!
I will say I love acrylic but thanks to Melissa, she has opened my eyes to want to do gel as well. I love these videos especially the informational ones about specific things. I also love the real times. I wanna see Melissa do a real time!
I think what helps when showing the tips is the hand model actually moves at the joints. I have watched videos of other people doing it and the hands were stiff, it made it hard to get certain visuals. So thank you for the creators of the hands with joints! 😆
definitely a different way of doing gel nails. I had no idea you could just 'paint' it on. that seems much easier than getting a bead and plopping it on and then spreading it around where you want it
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I used gel once and hated how it came out. I just did it again and it was so much easier because of your video. I actually like how it came out!
This video has taught me more then all the MANY videos I’ve watched lately! I have never had formal training, so I depend on professional videos so I can learn. I’m just trying to do my own nails to save money. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you Thank You Thaank Yooou!!🙏🏼👏🏼 I've been searching RUclips for months! Watched so many vids I lost count! I just started using gels hard/poly about 4-5months ago not a professional nail tec, self taught. THIS VID 100% has taught me SOO 😯 MUCH in these past 34min than any other vid I've came across! Melissa is such a wonderful teacher/educator, she explained everything excellently👌🏽👍🏼&has great energy! Just SUPER grateful!! Thank you!
Melissa killing it again ❤️ always love a video with her in it because not only do you get the greatest tips and tricks but her energy just feels right. Love it 💕
You know, I already do a pretty good job with my own gel nails, but this video showed me several areas of improvement! This was absolutely phenomenal. Thank you!!!
Thank you, yes we do. Please email ray@youngnails.com for more information on our upcoming classes. Must be 18+ for classes. Classes are for educational purposes only. Not for official licensing or certification.
I have not used the gel in a pot, but I have used builder gel in a bottle and have done over lays and extension with nail forms. I love it. It is pretty easy. I am protecting my technique. Have fun! I can’t wait to try the gel in a pot.
@@Mslittaaaaa the nail forms give me anxiety. That’s a whole other thing lol. I have used builder gel in a bottle but never fully got it. I feel like with these simple techniques in the video I’m going to get it now. ♥️
lol I called today to trouble shoot a problem with synergy hard gel. I wish Melissa would have been the one to respond. I'm glad I found this video and hope it helps :)
I am 100% happy that this video exists. I only do gel and have a problem with it adhering too my free edge. I think I'm not prepping completely. But after watching this video I see what i need to focus on. Thank you for sharing.
Wwoouuu!! @melissadelacruz thank you thank you sooo much!! Learning something new every time you teach us !!! Thank you Young Nails for having such a wonderful teacher ❤
So happy I found you! Been using gel for 18 months now, practising and trial and error. Your easy to understand tutorial is very much appreciated, so thank you!
I really like you Melissa and how you present for YN. You have great skill and great advice. I love the fact that you really know what you are doing and your nails come out really nice. Looking forward to more videos from you.
Wow!! How great your nails can look. Would love if the nail salons here in my little town cared like this. I have paid a lot of money to have my nails done to look good and leave soooo disappointed!
All this info. Is true and correct! I’ve been doing gel yrs. You & the gel will become 1 & u will learn all these techniques by trial and error. That’s how I learned 🙂 - Gel only nail tech.
Ciao bella Melissa, yes that was a mistake I have made on the base gel by removing the tacky layer but thanks to your tip's with that e brush techniques I will not make it again. Thank you grasshopper. As always your attention to details is amazing. You should come work with us. Hugs from Italia 🤗
@@mjaydelacruz8496 of course from one italian lady to another we got the best food. I going to visit young nails once things slow down with pandemic. Oh e if you did change occupato your title would change also 🤣🤣
About 25 min in shaping of the Free Edge : thinnng it so you can pick up things! Thank you for addressing that issue! It has always been my biggest peeve getting them done in a salon! I much prefer doing them myself! Even more so when I had the dip system! I've gone back to acrylic at home ɓcs my nails are like wet newspaper - always peeling. I'll probly watch again on the apex portion.
I’ve done acrylic for a while but I don’t care for it so I started using the hard gel. I love it because I am very focused and very detail oriented so I love to work with it. I literally look at the nail from every angle after I apply it!it’s insane. A little OCD 😝
Very, very good and instructive video. The important thing is that I learned a lot of good tricks, especially about nail trimming, a very important thing. Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart. You are very good, well done, just keep going. And I expect more videos like this
Hey Melissa thanks so much for this video because i am new to hard gel and i was looking for video on this and this showed up and i just love how you explain everything so well love yalls video thanks yall
So haven’t finished the video yet but I’ve been using gel over acrylic recently because acrylic smells and I’ve been traveling a big the last few months and don’t want to stink up hotel rooms with the fumes. I’ve been using I.B.D clear builder gel and I’ve been prepping my nails fine, removing the cuticle and filing the shine away. Then I’ll apply the I.b.d primer and start working. When I cure it, it burns my nail plate, even in the lowest setting and then sometimes when I’m done and I’m filing it starts lifting! Like I spent so much time on all that and it’s lifting as I’m filing, it’s completely cured but does that, then if I get lucky and that doesn’t happen, the nails come off easily and lift within a week. Never had that issue with acrylic before. Also I use tips because I’m not good with forms.
I’m not familiar with I.B.D gel. I could trouble shoot with our Synergy Gel with you if you were using it. Try our Base & either our clear build or one of our Councilor Gels! You will love them! 🤩💖💅🏻✨
I loved her slow but straight to the point teaching method doesn’t ramble about things to get you confused liked others do and her analogies makes so much sense you can picture yourself doing the techniques on your next set. Her voice wasn’t annoying and she was not a ham for the camera she was there to show you right from wrong I would love to see more from her👍🏼

So haven’t finished the video yet but I’ve been using gel over acrylic recently because acrylic smells and I’ve been traveling a big the last few months and don’t want to stink up hotel rooms with the fumes. I’ve been using I.B.D clear builder gel and I’ve been prepping my nails fine, removing the cuticle and filing the shine away. Then I’ll apply the I.b.d primer and start working. When I cure it, it burns my nail plate, even in the lowest setting and then sometimes when I’m done and I’m filing it starts lifting! Like I spent so much time on all that and it’s lifting as I’m filing, it’s completely cured but does that, then if I get lucky and that doesn’t happen, the nails come off easily and lift within a week. Never had that issue with acrylic before. Also I use tips because I’m not good with forms.
I’m not familiar with I.B.D gel. I could trouble shoot with our Synergy Gel with you if you were using it. Try our Base & either our clear build or one of our Councilor Gels! You will love them! 🤩💖💅🏻✨
