i go to the salon for toe nail polish ONLY! ive been wearing press ons for years.. i work in a hospital and we're not allowed to have acrylics. so for weekends, weddings, parties, and vacations I'll pop some on then off by sunday night💪
scorneli1202 i usually do that but ive ran out of alchohol and dont really feel like going out to buy another bottle do you think hydrogen peroxide would work?
Yes, you are right Marta. I should have been more scientifically accurate in my comment: Nail fungus (Onychomycosis) OR Pseudomonas (bacterial infection) can be prevented by disinfecting the nail plate with isopropyl alcohol.
I do this with tips instead of full press ons. I glue the tips and file it to my nailbed so its smooth then put my favourite shellac polish on. Lasts FOREVER and you dont really get that gap when it grows out.
samanthaa238 I use tapered opaque ones and cut and shape to my style, usually coffin shape.. I've had the big box for years they last so long im not sure the price but im sure I got it at Sally. you can find them at Walmart too I believe. I own a uv machine so I do shellac colour at home (I usually add an extra coat of base and topcoat for strength) works amazing!
I've been wanting to get my nails done forever now. I like the look of a clean mani but I'm a poor college student who can't afford to drop $50-$80 to get acrylics done. I'm so glad you uploaded this. I just hopped onto Amazon, bought the oval-shaped nails and a bottle of glue for less than $12. :)
Mariah Bailey Where do you see that Acrylics cost 50-80? Every near me, they are between 24-30. Keep looking! You will be able to find a place you can afford :)
Ericca Wall It depends on where you live. Some places don't have inexpensive nail salons. Here it's impossible to find a nail salon that does acrylics as inexpensively as you mentioned.
That sucks. I've even gotten them done in a super small town in the middle of Oklahoma for about 24, or 25 dollars. Who ever is charging more than 35 for just acrylics is getting away with robbery.
Some of yall need to lighten up, its an option, if you don't like it don't do it! For me coming out of gel nails for 2 years this is a great break to restore my natural nails and wallet....RELAX! GREAT VIDEO!!!
Haha omg girl I've been using press ons for a while now too & I love it! I always get a lot of compliments literally the only thing I hate about press ons though is having to admit they're press ons when I get a compliment on them 😂
I just recently started wearing press ones and I love them! I use the same exact glue as well. I would recommend buffing your nails with a nail file to ruff them up a little. That's the only way mine will stay without having one or two pop off throughout the day! They last about 2 weeks

Yay! Love it! Quick question: How do you take them off after 10 days?
I kid you not I was just about to go and pay to get my nails done even though I hate salons. So glad I saw this lol, all the supplies for a bunch of manicures down the road alone was still less than a gel full set! Thanks girl!
This is awesome! I've been wasting so much time at nail salons and I recently went and got them taken off because it was becoming too much! I'm definitely going to try this! It also looks fun as well.
thank you for talking about affordable stuff Jessica ! you are the only youtuber who doesn't actually encourage people to buy stuff. I really love this about you ! also thank you for that faded french manucure, I never heard of it, I will definitely try it out 😉
thank you so much! I was watching a documentary about minimalism a few months ago and it's kind of in the back of my brain so I've been trying to do more videos that can be more accessible for people that have other shit to spend money on besides beauty product. :)
I am so excited to try this, I just bought the oval ones on eBay for only €5.20 ($5.50) with free shipping! I'm so happy because I only get my nails done like once a year because I hate spending 60 Euro for something that grows out after a month!
I 100000% agree that using press on nails like this is better than acrylic. My natural nails are long like the press ons shown so when one breaks I'll go ahead and pop a press on one on till it's long again. They're a lot less damaging than acrylic or gel. My tip for anyone who cares more about the health of their nails than the long look is to put a coat of clear on before you glue the falsies. It doesn't stick them as strong but really protects your nails from going flaky :)
Kiaya Bass I wear acrylics almost constantly (I do them professionally) and I disagree. What's damaging about having acrylics done by certain people is that they file down your nail bed way to much! And when tips are used for extensions the glue rips up layers of the nail if not removed properly. Whenever I remove my acrylics (mine are done using forms/sculpted, not used glue on tips) they are completely fine and healthy 😊 blame the nail tech for bad application and removal, not the actual product 💅🏻
Kayliegh Chadney it's been proven by doctors that the best option would be press ons but whatever you choose do it in moderation the way they apply and take it off is a contributing factor
crystal williams proven by what doctors? As a nail professional, I've never heard this. Popping off press-ons is far more damaging. As long as the manicurist is knowledgeable in acrylic application and removal, there is absolutely no damage to the natural nail.
Kiaya Bass one of the main reasons why your nails may be weak, thin, and damaged is either the application was wrong, or people rip or chew off their acrylics. The removal is done wrong. You are supposed to soak them off completely.
:D yay thank you! My natural nails are long too. I want to switch up my look without permanent change. So I bought the press ons... I was actually thinking about putting on a clear coat before glue, looked around the internet couldn't find anything. I am thinking about using the sally Henson hard as gel clear coat. Any suggestions? How long do they last when you put a clear coat on first?
I do this too but I buy mine from eBay for like $3. I also stick them on an orange stick with tape and paint them before I glue them on my nails so they look really clean! People always assume I get mine done at a salon but I do them myself! The only thing is you need to be so careful when you remove them. I used to just pop them off and my nails were starting to remove from my nail beds. I just soak them off in acetone now
Girl you're the best! Acrylics mess up my nails so much. My nails don't grow the same until about 4-6 months after! I'm being serious. And I always wanted to have pretty long nails. Now I can thanks to you!!!!! Thanks girl!
"I always get a lot of compliments on my nails, on my hands in general, I do have nice hands - so many people have told me I should be a hand model, it's like almost insulting because what's wrong with the rest of me?" K. This chick wins the award for most conceited fucking comment on the internet. FORRRR RIZZLE lol
+R. Viska Svalström lmaooo I'm just stating facts lol I also mentioned that I'm offended people like my hands more than the rest of me! 😂 you need to chill bro
MissJessicaHarlow I totally get what you mean when you feel like it's an insult ahaha, I used to get the 'hand model' line a bit and it made me feel shit about the rest of myself TBH
You learn how to take a compliment. They weren't saying "you have beautiful nails, but DAMN the rest of you" lol. You made the rest of the sentence up in your head. Do people have to say "omg I love your nails, and your body, and your face, and your makeup, and your feet, etc....
They look SO good! I was worried you were going to be a licensed manicurist & it wasn't going to be this simple. Thank you so much for this video. I needed something that was inexpensive but cute! Thanks so much! Xoxoxo
I do acrylics and seeing your title it's was a little disceaving. Also press on nails are the ones you buy that have the gel sticky on the inside. they last a week or two and recently they have really steped up their game. I just find they are not long enough for my nail beds. the one's your using are just glued on nails. I know it sounds weird but thats the difference. plus press on are less damaging compared to glued on nails. I loved the trick with the French nails, beautiful job!
deysi cruz She said it after I left the comment and it's VITAL- find nails that fit YOUR nail bed. I tried press on nails for years that were too rounded and they would pop off within ten minutes. Pitiful. I was in my mid thirties before I found wide bed nail press ons. They stay fine!
Jessica Huwite this happens with any nail extension as long as the nail is prepped correctly before attaching the extension there should be no water build up. prep and making sure the press on nail is to the shape of your natural nail helps a millions. If someone has special nail beds acrylic or gel is more appealing for customizing but there's nothing wrong with press ons I always tell my clients options
Yes, your hands are gorgeous and so are you! Never considered press on acrylics before but after this I will definitely check them out! Thanks for the video :-) 🌹
Great vid! I've been using press ons for years as well. Most people think I get my nails professionally done regularly. After being asked incessantly where I get my nails done I finally broke down and told my friends that they are press ons lol. I have a particular way of doing them that they last a very long time and obviously I shower, wash my hair, do dishes , etc without them popping off lol.
+Sixty63rd remove the polish like you would your natural nails. trim them down to your natural nail length. Get a small cheap glass bowl you don't care about ruining (you can reuse it for this purpose indefinitely but don't eat out of it lol), fill it enough that you can cover your nails with 100% acetone, and just soak your nails. One hand at a time. You soak for about 5-10 mins, wipe away with a paper towel, and keep soaking until its almost all off. Then do the other hand. I recommend one hand at a time as when it dries (and it dries quickly) the plastic & acrylic harden. Watch a tv show while you do it! Lol you can buff away any left over acrylic if you need to.
So beautiful! I do the same but the clear nail seems like a really good idea. I totally agree with the natural colored polish tip- so low maintenance but still chic and gorgeouss
Anna Engel i think that the way you described and the comment above yours is for acrylics. i always remove my glue on nails by soaking my finger tips in warm (on the hotter side of warm) water and they usually just pop right off after ten-fifteen minutes!! hope this helps
I just got the new lime crime ones today and I've never worn press on but it sounds great I'm definitely going to try. I'm a hairstylist so I hope they will stay on it will be a good test! Great video thanks
Holy crap what a good idea. I was doing the gel dip trend at home and it was so obviously thick and lumpy. These are perfect. Now if I can only figure out how to wear these at work when there is a fake nail no nail polish ban. Hmmmmmmmm.. love you!!!
yay i ordered these nails and they are so much easier to work with and look so much more natural than the other brands! thank you so much for the info!!
I don't get why so many girls glue nails on before painting them, it's counter productive. I use q-tips and tape to paint the nails (2 coats + top coat), then I glue them on when they're dry. No shade at all, her nails look great, I just don't get that.
painting them on before can be counterproductive. if you accidentally put a little too much glue it will end up pouring over the sides of the nail, dulling the polish. you’d end up having to do another topcoat, if not removing and repainting the whole polish from scratch. 🤷🏻♀️ if it works for you, go for it. But for some of us it’s harder.
Uh. Love you girl, always lookin out! I hate going to the salon for nails. I like staying gone watching a movie and doing my nails too! Thank you for this video!!
its so out of line to say "stop WASTING your money in a salon" and so disrespectful to us cosmetologist who work our ass off not only going to school and paying for our education but making sure you are in a nice, safe ,comfortable place with A/C enough mirrors ,bathroom etc. We all as professional take a lot of effort and dedication to follow health procedures .We dont only make your nails pretty, we cure, sanitize, help, improve and treat your hand, foot, face or area we are working on. I do support DIY education but it will never EVER be the same. You are NEVER WASTING your money, you are paying for a great service and location. Please a little more respect for those of us who are passionate about serving and helping people.
Sunniedew A "license" does not make you professional. There are a lot of people who can do hair and nails better than someone who went to school to learn the profession.
mxxsade also true. there's good and bad (risks) in both someone licensed or not. However when you go to someone licensed and they mess up, you can get better business involved to make complaints easier than you could when going to an at-home station of someone who isn't established as a professional. It's not just for their protection, it's for yours as well. though I've heard a lot of shady nail salons bring real trashy with customers. thankfully the one where I live is amaaaaazing, and if they mess up they go above and beyond to rectify it.
I never do my nails but my sister goes to the salon all the time and suggests I go with but I work with my hands a lot so I think it's a waste of money but this makes it seem worth it. I love you so much and you have great ideas.
You have good nails that seem like they could grow so why aren't you doing that? Please respond. I used to wear press-ons briefly, because I couldn't get used to one falling off from wearing them, the feeling made me cringe like my actual nail peeled off but without pain-just a weird feeling HAHA.
Bombshell nailS ... This is probably why her nails look so good in the firs place. Wearing artificial nails doesn’t automatically mean there’s something wrong with the natural nails.
I have found poly gel nails and am in love with them i use the nail forms but they are hard like acrylics dont damage the nails... i dont drill just file and they look professional i can do them at home. I will never look back. Hope you consider giving them a try 😍😍
This is such a nice idea for having cute nails for special occasions and then easily taking them off once the weekend/night is over so you don't get in trouble once you get back to work if you have a strict dress code like at mine 😅 love it!!!
OMG Jessica Harlow??? is that you? i just stumbled onto your video, i havent seen you in ages!!! you were one if the first beauty gurus i ever watched on youtube nearly a decade ago! nice to see you are doing well ^_^
I love that you use press on nails. I always use them and people think it's weird but I love them. I have that exact brand of nails in the stiletto shape
Barbie4U2 No hate lmao but I think she should've just gone over 10 mins since they get paid at that point. Either 3 mins or 10... but she went to 7 lol
Why do people make those video's ? They don't know anything about nailcare, they use cheap products from China, those are the worst for your nail and ar the end beauticans and nail techs need to fix those nails. Not cool
Waste money? If a person is providing a service, and it's well done, then you've not wasted a dime. It sounds like you've been to the wrong salons, with the wrong techs. As a nail tech, I know first hand how hard a person has to work to stay updated in this costly industry, not too mention the daily goal of meeting people's expectations. Which sometimes can be extremely demanding. Cool, you wanted to do a vid to show people how to do their own nails, but don't take this shit out on us.
Great video. I loved how you showed how to do a french manicure look. Thumbs up! Jessica, a sign of great success is having jealous haters! Enjoy them 😀.... they can never be you or anyone else successful. Hence their frustration. Keep doing you. ♥️👍🏾
Thank you so much! I tried this today and am very pleased! I wrote my finger on each nail baggie ex: bag 0=Thumb. This will make it easier when looking for a size again.
This is a god send lol I got my nails done 3 weeks ago (and I only do them once a year because they're so expensive and I hate going too) thank you so much!! What's your removal process?
girl yes! I did glue ons for so long too...if my nails don't look good, I feel like crap! although recently I went to get my nails done and I got a powder manicure (the brand was ANC) and holy shit...had them on for a MONTH and they didn't chip, or lift like acrylics, or even lose their shape! it was magical. it's super expensive to get them done in the city though (I paid $80 at a salon last week for a different brand of powder dip), so I've got my amazon cart full so I can start doing it myself! your videos are always so helpful, I love how you just jump right in! keep being awesome :)
Oooooh YAS! Never even THOUGHT to do press ons! Sooo gonna try this. I am a hair dresser and literally no manicure lasts. Thank you! Oh and can you update us on how you take them off?
![Yeat & Summrs - GO2WORK [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/NEFEwfPcXRA/mqdefault.jpg)
GREAT NEWS! The nails I love & recommend are BACK IN STOCK! amzn.to/2mBx06C I just purchased for myself. :)
i go to the salon for toe nail polish ONLY! ive been wearing press ons for years.. i work in a hospital and we're not allowed to have acrylics. so for weekends, weddings, parties, and vacations I'll pop some on then off by sunday night💪
Do you glue them down? or use the sticky tabs. Im in healthcare too
@@MayaRoseXO glue
Before you glue the nail on, it is a good idea to disinfect the nail plate with isopropyl alcohol to prevent nail fungus (pseudomonas) from forming.
ur an angel thank you
scorneli1202 i usually do that but ive ran out of alchohol and dont really feel like going out to buy another bottle do you think hydrogen peroxide would work?
Yes that would work too.
Pseudomonas are bacteria, not fungi. Not even the same kingdom!
Yes, you are right Marta. I should have been more scientifically accurate in my comment: Nail fungus (Onychomycosis) OR Pseudomonas (bacterial infection) can be prevented by disinfecting the nail plate with isopropyl alcohol.
I do this with tips instead of full press ons. I glue the tips and file it to my nailbed so its smooth then put my favourite shellac polish on. Lasts FOREVER and you dont really get that gap when it grows out.
ShooUtau just curious what tips do you use?
samanthaa238 I use tapered opaque ones and cut and shape to my style, usually coffin shape.. I've had the big box for years they last so long im not sure the price but im sure I got it at Sally. you can find them at Walmart too I believe. I own a uv machine so I do shellac colour at home (I usually add an extra coat of base and topcoat for strength) works amazing!
ShooUtau that's a much better idea! they'll definitely last longer. I do full sets with tips or forms.
ShooUtau whoa! You just mighta did something!!!!
totally trying this
I've been wanting to get my nails done forever now. I like the look of a clean mani but I'm a poor college student who can't afford to drop $50-$80 to get acrylics done. I'm so glad you uploaded this. I just hopped onto Amazon, bought the oval-shaped nails and a bottle of glue for less than $12. :)
hey do u have the link to the nails cuz I couldn't find them.. thanks :)
Flora Pake I used the link in the description. Unfortunately I think they're both out of stock though. :(

I just saw that video suggested! I haven't seen it yet! LOL tag her! haha
I thought the exact same thing. LMAO
Sixty63rd
This was exactly what I told her. PRESS ON GIUUUUURRRRRRLLLLLL. So much easier.

If you use adhesive tabs (which I prefer) you can just pull them off, if you use glue you soak them in polish remover. Super easy in either case.
Laurel DeForge thank you❤
Laurel DeForge doesn't damage your real nails taking them off? Acrylics thrashed my real ones and I finally have them back
NP.
It may after time if you use glue but I've never had any trouble with tabs.
I kid you not I was just about to go and pay to get my nails done even though I hate salons. So glad I saw this lol, all the supplies for a bunch of manicures down the road alone was still less than a gel full set! Thanks girl!

Etain Riera whats the ebay link
Idk what I would do without your beauty videos Jessica! ❤️

I've been wearing press on Kiss nails for almost 2 years. Takes 5 mins and in $7 bucks. No more $60 salon runs for me. 🙆🏾♀️
You are my hero!!
Thank you a million times over for posting this!!!
Your speaking my language being at home watching tv doing my nails, Friday night goals!
Any One just finish watching Jenna
your hands are so pretty makes ur nails stand out a lot in a good way ❤️
I'm extremely lucky to have strong nails that grow to that length. I just finished doing this nail design and it looks great!
lucky you! I have pretty strong nails too but eventually something gives out so I typically have half of my nails fake, half real. LOL
MissJessicaHarlow jjj
MissJessicaHarlow vj
OMG, THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR SHARING! CAN'T WAIT TO GET ON AMAZON & ORDER A PACK OF THESE NAILS!
I do this too but I buy mine from eBay for like $3. I also stick them on an orange stick with tape and paint them before I glue them on my nails so they look really clean! People always assume I get mine done at a salon but I do them myself! The only thing is you need to be so careful when you remove them. I used to just pop them off and my nails were starting to remove from my nail beds. I just soak them off in acetone now
Ashley B how do you get them to stick to the orange stick? Just regular double sided tape?
chanel113 yep I just make a loop of tape and then stick the nail on and paint. Set on a cup to dry and then glue them on!
Ashley B how long did it take your nails to repair
Great Yup!
It's also very helpful to file your nail before gluing the fake one to take away any oils ! Helps make them last a lot longer ❤️
You are the best Jessica! :)
love you! thank you!

This video is amazing!! Always wanted nails but never have the money for it but def gonna try this out

If you used adhesive tabs you just pull them off & if you used glue you soak them in acetone.

Anna Engel i think that the way you described and the comment above yours is for acrylics. i always remove my glue on nails by soaking my finger tips in warm (on the hotter side of warm) water and they usually just pop right off after ten-fifteen minutes!! hope this helps
I just got the new lime crime ones today and I've never worn press on but it sounds great I'm definitely going to try. I'm a hairstylist so I hope they will stay on it will be a good test! Great video thanks
Too bad press on nails don't fit everyone's hands, especially mine 🙄🙄
Holy crap what a good idea. I was doing the gel dip trend at home and it was so obviously thick and lumpy. These are perfect. Now if I can only figure out how to wear these at work when there is a fake nail no nail polish ban. Hmmmmmmmm.. love you!!!
nailed it-no pun intended
yay i ordered these nails and they are so much easier to work with and look so much more natural than the other brands! thank you so much for the info!!
Can you wash your hair with these nails without them coming off?
No. Lol
I fell in love with the red ones omg I would def do them like that myself
Your dominant hand will always be slightly larger.
A make up sponge works better for an ombre look.
This video helped me do my own! Thanks for such a thorough and great video :)
Introvert problems indeed!! That's EXACTLY how I feel!
Yesssss girl I'm all about that press on nail life 💅🏽
I don't get why so many girls glue nails on before painting them, it's counter productive. I use q-tips and tape to paint the nails (2 coats + top coat), then I glue them on when they're dry.
No shade at all, her nails look great, I just don't get that.
whatever's easier for you! there aren't many right or wrongs! that's a good tip for girls who may have trouble painting with their other hand. :)
ems516 thank you for the tip! I knew there had to be a way to paint them before putting them on lol. Will be doing this!
ems516 how do you tape them to the q tip? Double sided tape?
I tried painting them first before, i found it to be a complete mess and took much longer.
painting them on before can be counterproductive. if you accidentally put a little too much glue it will end up pouring over the sides of the nail, dulling the polish. you’d end up having to do another topcoat, if not removing and repainting the whole polish from scratch. 🤷🏻♀️ if it works for you, go for it. But for some of us it’s harder.
Uh. Love you girl, always lookin out! I hate going to the salon for nails. I like staying gone watching a movie and doing my nails too! Thank you for this video!!
Omg love that red ring where is it from 😍 (sorry if you have already mentioned it 🙊) x
it's from sterlingforever.com :)
MissJessicaHarlow thank you so much 😘
MissJessicaHarlow Are the rings in your caption from the same place? Thanks you
Wearing pressies now and will never go back to the salon!! Love your videos!
You have very beautiful and elegant hands!
Jess I wish these girls had the ability to understand your.exceptional sense of humor, goshhhh
You can use the extra nails that don't fit you or you don't need to do nail polish swatches or designs. It's what I'd do at least.
Your natural nails are gorgeous!
You have such beautiful hands 😌 not to be creepy hah
OmG why did I never think of doing this before!? You just changed my life!!! Thank Yoooooooou!!! ❤️
its so out of line to say "stop WASTING your money in a salon" and so disrespectful to us cosmetologist who work our ass off not only going to school and paying for our education but making sure you are in a nice, safe ,comfortable place with A/C enough mirrors ,bathroom etc. We all as professional take a lot of effort and dedication to follow health procedures .We dont only make your nails pretty, we cure, sanitize, help, improve and treat your hand, foot, face or area we are working on. I do support DIY education but it will never EVER be the same. You are NEVER WASTING your money, you are paying for a great service and location. Please a little more respect for those of us who are passionate about serving and helping people.
Kalilah Evol A-M-E-N If you can do your own nails and do your own hair good for you, but it does not and will never compete with professional work.
Sunniedew A "license" does not make you professional. There are a lot of people who can do hair and nails better than someone who went to school to learn the profession.
mxxsade also true. there's good and bad (risks) in both someone licensed or not. However when you go to someone licensed and they mess up, you can get better business involved to make complaints easier than you could when going to an at-home station of someone who isn't established as a professional. It's not just for their protection, it's for yours as well. though I've heard a lot of shady nail salons bring real trashy with customers. thankfully the one where I live is amaaaaazing, and if they mess up they go above and beyond to rectify it.
Sunniedew Very true!
Kalilah Evol girl boo hoo go cry me a river it's better to it ur self than to have somebody else doing it that barely know what they doing
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I never do my nails but my sister goes to the salon all the time and suggests I go with but I work with my hands a lot so I think it's a waste of money but this makes it seem worth it. I love you so much and you have great ideas.
You have good nails that seem like they could grow so why aren't you doing that? Please respond. I used to wear press-ons briefly, because I couldn't get used to one falling off from wearing them, the feeling made me cringe like my actual nail peeled off but without pain-just a weird feeling HAHA.
Bombshell nailS ... This is probably why her nails look so good in the firs place. Wearing artificial nails doesn’t automatically mean there’s something wrong with the natural nails.
Great idea using the sponge brush, love love
No shade but this woman makes me think of Janice of Friends 🙈
oh wow that is awesome! i love this video, the nails are gorgeous!!
Nice idea! The video could have been more broken down though... like straight to the point. Like 2 mins long. A little too much talking there.
I have found poly gel nails and am in love with them i use the nail forms but they are hard like acrylics dont damage the nails... i dont drill just file and they look professional i can do them at home. I will never look back. Hope you consider giving them a try 😍😍
what I wanna know is,do you have to ever wash dishes?..... because press ons aren't THAT durable
Chantel Paulina right lol does she scrub anything??
I work at a warehouse and i have 3 small kids they stay for 2 weeks
This is such a nice idea for having cute nails for special occasions and then easily taking them off once the weekend/night is over so you don't get in trouble once you get back to work if you have a strict dress code like at mine 😅 love it!!!
You look like Sandra Bullock! 😍
OMG Jessica Harlow??? is that you? i just stumbled onto your video, i havent seen you in ages!!! you were one if the first beauty gurus i ever watched on youtube nearly a decade ago! nice to see you are doing well ^_^
I really fukin hate myself for clicking on this....damn girl!
yes girl! I do my nails myself as well. i love press ons did a few videos on them as well
so you are saying: " don't waste your money at a saloon but watch my video so I can make money due to youtube...right go girl 😏😏
Sandrine CH ...that's ridiculous. YOU don't personally pay to watch her videos. It's free for you to watch a get tips and tricks.
...I'm trying to help you guys save money. My videos are free to watch. I'm not doing anything illegal. Making money isn't a crime.
Sandrine CH lmfao wtf is your logic here...
Sandrine CH. Am I the only who actually thought the comment what funny? Just me Okey
I love that you use press on nails. I always use them and people think it's weird but I love them. I have that exact brand of nails in the stiletto shape
this is NOT acrylic. this is just plastic glue on nails.
Window to Poland hence "faux acrylic" in the title
MissJessicaHarlow 😂😂😂
Wow you do have really pretty hands! I loved your smile as well. This is my first video of yours that I'm watching, I can't wait to watch more :)
Way to long. This could have been done in a 3 minute video
Barbie4U2 but she had to stroke her who for the first 2 mins 🙄
Barbie4U2 No hate lmao but I think she should've just gone over 10 mins since they get paid at that point. Either 3 mins or 10... but she went to 7 lol
Love your motto! I always tell ppl I'm a DIY junkie 😊
Why do people make those video's ? They don't know anything about nailcare, they use cheap products from China, those are the worst for your nail and ar the end beauticans and nail techs need to fix those nails. Not cool
Caro De Ridder just don’t comment if you don’t like it. Some people want long nails, but can’t afford acrylics. These do less damage anyways.
This was awesome!! You have beautiful nails and hands!! I'm jealous!
Waste money? If a person is providing a service, and it's well done, then you've not wasted a dime. It sounds like you've been to the wrong salons, with the wrong techs. As a nail tech, I know first hand how hard a person has to work to stay updated in this costly industry, not too mention the daily goal of meeting people's expectations. Which sometimes can be extremely demanding. Cool, you wanted to do a vid to show people how to do their own nails, but don't take this shit out on us.
Courtney Reynolds chill out, you're taking it like a personal attack.
Most salons suck. That's just a fact.
Courtney Reynolds getting your nails done is an unnecessary service so yes it is wasting money on unnecessary things
Courtney Reynolds k
Courtney Reynolds it's not that serious lmaooo
Okay so I'm coming back to this so that I can order the oval ones!!!! These look so fabulous Jessica!!!
Great video. I loved how you showed how to do a french manicure look. Thumbs up! Jessica, a sign of great success is having jealous haters! Enjoy them 😀.... they can never be you or anyone else successful. Hence their frustration. Keep doing you. ♥️👍🏾
Beautiful as always Jessica! But damn your hands really are GORGEOUS. I loved the ruby ring with the red nails... NAIL GOALS!!
Thank you so much! I tried this today and am very pleased! I wrote my finger on each nail baggie ex: bag 0=Thumb. This will make it easier when looking for a size again.
This is a god send lol I got my nails done 3 weeks ago (and I only do them once a year because they're so expensive and I hate going too) thank you so much!! What's your removal process?
Love the way the fade looks😍
girl yes! I did glue ons for so long too...if my nails don't look good, I feel like crap! although recently I went to get my nails done and I got a powder manicure (the brand was ANC) and holy shit...had them on for a MONTH and they didn't chip, or lift like acrylics, or even lose their shape! it was magical. it's super expensive to get them done in the city though (I paid $80 at a salon last week for a different brand of powder dip), so I've got my amazon cart full so I can start doing it myself!
your videos are always so helpful, I love how you just jump right in! keep being awesome :)
Your ruby ring!!!😱😱😱😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤❤❤ that was love at first sight
thank you! i got it from sterling forever! :)
Oooooh YAS! Never even THOUGHT to do press ons! Sooo gonna try this. I am a hair dresser and literally no manicure lasts. Thank you! Oh and can you update us on how you take them off?
+Ashley Alhadeff I'm going to in a vlog! Stay tuned! ♥️♥️♥️
