Thanks for sharing & Tips.the color of polish? If you said it I might have missed it..It's beautiful.. Painting your own nails is practice & patience.. the video really helps.❤️
The polish color is Peep The Goods. Unfortunately, it is no longer available in regular polish but we still have it in our one step gel polish line. www.youngnails.com/products/1-3-oz-peep-the-goods
I really appreciate this video. As a dad with five girls and a wife, this is a complete game changer for me. You just provided me with everything I was missing. Thanks for making me look like a professional. They just fired their Nail Technicians. 💪🏿
I’m with you, mate!! 4 females and I get to spend such beautiful quality time with them!! I always look forward to painting whatever designs they come up with.. by trade, I’m a building contractor and this is a stress reliever and great practice cutting in on paint jobs!!💯❤️
I like when there’s a (seemingly) straight guy who does nails nails, it’s great because it helps break down the stigma, and breaks down how people think painting/painted nails and other beauty care things as a feminine hobby/job/interest. :)
I’m a straight guy who does his own finger and toenails. I hate dirty nails. Ever since high school. Before that I used to think dirty nails meant you were a real guy. Maturing changed that.
Also, you know how many women actually taking my grooming seriously has gotten me since I figured this out? haha They make you think that Women love ashy, crusty, and dirty nails on TV. You know? “Hard working hands” Until you have to touch one in real life and your hard working nails are cutting her. Haha I’m a auto technician, but currently work at a warehouse. I still keep my hands and feet baby smooth. It’s no excuse. 🤷🏾♂️ You can still have masculine hands that are clean and smooth. 💯
Polishing nails and decorating nails is an art. I have tried and I make a mess. I have great respect for people that do this everyday, as a job. Takes real skill!! ☆
I've been painting my nails for about 4 years now, and in my opinion I can do just as well as a licensed nail technician. It really just takes practice and a lot of patience.
When I was going up with 5 sisters and 2 brothers, my grandmother who raised us and 4 other grandchildren 2 girls and 2 boys for a total of 12 children always told us learn to do things for yourself. She always said never pay someone else to do for you if you can do for it for yourself. Coming from a big family with limited income learning to do certain things made a big difference in our apperance.
It's easier for me to paint my own nails because the angle is completely different!!! I'm practically painting sideways vs. when I actually have a client in FRONT of me with their fingers either flat out straight (don't do this) or slightly tilted down, and having to balance their finger as well as paint. It's hard to describe
@@comegetmyxlove agree! so hard to do someone else. I do my own nails as a hobby....every once in a great while i relent when someone asks me to do theirs but I need a dang lesson on how to hold their hand without messing up the other nails!!
I have shied away from regular polish because I was unable to do it nice enough before it would start to dry. For that reason I've always gone with gel polish. This video is a complete game changer. Thank you so much for breaking down something that seems like it should be so simple without making me feel like I'm not good enough to be doing nails if I couldnt use regular polish. ❤️
I never thought about applying polish as being difficult...until I met people who couldn't do it...which was a strange concept to me! But there really are people who just cannot paint nails🤔 Just goes to show, everyone's different & things that come naturally to one person are completely foreign to another!
Amber D. Some brushes don't help at all, plus, natural nails are harder to paint than acrylic/gel. Otherwise, tips like these & practice, practice, practice! You'll get there!☺️
Thank you for.i am a newly licensed nail tach and this is a sweet refresher . Very short clear explanation without a lot of rambling thank goodness 🌹great video
So love watching your videos this technique has helped me with not only regular polish application but with my gel polish applications my clients are so happy with the results I can now give them.
There’s just something about nice, clean man hands! 😂 loved your booth at Orlando premier! So awesome that you and Tracy were out there with customers!
Im here because my girlfriend wants to save money and part of that is cutting back the expense of getting her nails done. Im a proffesional house painter so I figured this cant be too much different from what I do everyday. I also have a daughter who will benefit from this. I got you girls 💪
Glad to see this tutorial. A lot of technicians do not know how to polish. My technique of polishing is like yours. The only difference is that I clean the nail as I go when it gets on the skin.
@therealmccoy122405 They called it xxoo kissy face in the comments, then in another comment they called it Slump Bump. Worth a Google of both names to see which it is!
Starting in the centre nearer the free edge minimises bleeding in to the cuticles, allowing more time to apply it at a slower pace, followed by nearer the cuticle then down the side walls. Everyone has their own method that works best for them but, it’s one of the easiest method. :)
I wish you had a video on how she did her nails to make them short and natural looking. Everyone has videos on long false nails. I love the look of her nails.
Cat 181314 dont let them fool u those nails had acrylic or some other material added to them b4 they even started notice how pink and smooth they were although they said they had buffed them to dehydrate them. Iv never saw any1 with natural nails like that.
You forgot to mention to look for polishes with fanned bristles because if you have cheap polishes the bristles are thick and theres no movement. A good polish brand will have a u shape for its bristles and they are wide and tapered, they are also super flexible and have the flexibility of hair like synthetic thin strands. If youre using cheap polish make sure to use a better brush or avoid dollar polishes or use a synthetic painting brush. This video was awesome thanks guys. 💞💞💞
I used your products year's ago when I was a nail nech! I'm no longer a nail tech because of different thing's. I really wish I could have gone to school with you guy's because of feeling like I didn't get the teaching I needed when I did go through the class. In the end of the class the instructor quit half way through and we were on our own and we payed for this class and didn't get our money back. They had a teacher from the hair class pop her head in every once in a while.
After watching this I bought your nail polish and tried it out. It's the perfect application 😁 I absolutely love your nail polish, so I'm now stocking up for my mobile nail business 😁 thank you
I also thing getting new polish brushes will help, usually a brush is long and straight and incredibly hard to reach side edges and the cuticle area without bleeding over. Switching to a wider and curve tip (shown in the video) can help with getting close to the cuticle without any bleeding helps. Especially if your left handed and brushing someone elses hand.
@@youngnailsinc Actually, I recently painted my nails red and honestly it didn't look that bad, so yeah I tried so hard to do it perfectly so I wish my nails were good as hers.
Hi guys!!!! This is a marvellous way to explain !! Greg speak so clear! Very easy to understand. Vocalise very very well . 👍👍 keep me busy listen and looking at you guys.
Wow thank you that was very helpful! Good preparation for school tomorrow! I'm struggling with polishing nails and have to do a manicure tomorrow. I'm practicing on myself right now 😁💅🏼
@@youngnailsinc I absolutely did! I've followed your instructions after watching your video and my nails are looking so much better! I'll need some more practice though, but already it made a world of a difference! It's my second time in total that I'm trying to do my own nails. The fist time it went down in the books, pretty much as a disaster of note!🙈 Haha!😃 But then I came across your video and VOILA!😍💃🏼Thank you soooo much!♥️♥️♥️♥️😘
When I started watching your video I thought, ‘this is stupid, who doesn’t know how to polish nails?!!!’ I have been doing my nails for years and am complimented daily how pretty they are and how they love the color. BUT!!! You taught me a couple of things!!! I’m shocked!! Using the brush with polish remover blew my mind!! Also, using the brush and remover to fix the nail on the side, I never thought of doing that!! I do apply my polish up to the cuticle and wondered why someone would want that space open after a manicure? So your tutorial taught an old dog new tricks!! Lol. Thank you sir, you know how to polish nails.Like Tracy, I start in the middle of the nail. Also, my last name is NAIL‼️💅🏽⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
That was super helpful! I think perfect polish application is my biggest issue and It's so essential to being a great nail tech. Thank you for making this video ❤ love what you guys do!
I met him at a nail convention in Sacramento we took pics he's so nice I had so much fun and won prizes and gifts it was one of the greatest days ever 💗
This video came so close to what I needed...but not quite. I do my own nails....just for fun. Every once in a while a good friend or my sister asks me to do their nails. I have SUCH a hard time figuring out how to hold their hand and finger without messing up the other nails. Could you do a vid on how to properly hold hand and fingers. I loved the idea of stabilizing with one finger. There isn't one video I could find on how to properly ....please please do that. Love your vids!!!
Thank you for your videos. I'm just starting my journey as a nail tech and what I'm finding hard now is actually the polish as it keeps going on the skin, making my teacher loose her temper on me.
Nice one! That is a nice technique. I tried and it worked so well. Perfectly done. I have been using the three stroke method all the while, this one works best for me. Thank you for teaching ❤️
I used to really suck at this, polish spilling everywhere. Its not perfect but still 1000x better. So if your bad don't lose hope. I've been doing my nails since I was 10 and I'm just starting the hang of it

Is it just me or is watching someone polish nails so perfectly very soothing? 🙋🏽♀️
Moonstone Magic
It just makes me envious!😁. No matter how much I try, practice has NOT made me perfect.🚨
Yes it is, would like to see a lefty polish always right handed lol
watch jessface90. her swatch videos are so relaxing i could spend hours watching them lol
Cassie Hall Omg thank you so much! I just subscribed and I’m in love 😍❤️😊
Moonstone Magic very soothing!!
Supporting the fingers that hold the polish wand is the most important part of getting a good application, excellent video Greg 💅

Really beautiful shade. It’s like a bronze that is somewhat more red/pink. Loving it!
Thank you! We’re glad you took the time to watch this video on polishing with perfection.
I've been painting my nails for about 4 years now, and in my opinion I can do just as well as a licensed nail technician.
It really just takes practice and a lot of patience.
Agreed when you know better, from doing your own, you do better
GabbusWabbus I agree and it saves a lot of money doing your own nails.

You did a beautiful job on her nails!!! The color is absolutely beautiful and stunning
As someone who struggles with applying polish, this was so so helpful! Thankyou!
Nice
I love the way you explain everything!! You definitely have a radio voice!!!
How long does each coat take to dry in order to go to the next step?
This is so educational. He's a pro, I love it❤
I have shied away from regular polish because I was unable to do it nice enough before it would start to dry. For that reason I've always gone with gel polish. This video is a complete game changer. Thank you so much for breaking down something that seems like it should be so simple without making me feel like I'm not good enough to be doing nails if I couldnt use regular polish. ❤️
I've been polishing my nails wrong for years. Thanks for showing a better method.
When we know better we can do better, great video !
This was great. I have always started in the middle. New technique coming my way. Today. Thanks, Greg.
There are so many similar tutorials but this is by far the best one I have seen! Thank you so much! You are just perfect!
I never thought about applying polish as being difficult...until I met people who couldn't do it...which was a strange concept to me! But there really are people who just cannot paint nails🤔 Just goes to show, everyone's different & things that come naturally to one person are completely foreign to another!
MrsBungle78 agreed
Must be nice. I've always sucked no matter what I do lol
MrsBungle78
I can't polish at all lol this is a great tutorial for people like me!
Amber D. Some brushes don't help at all, plus, natural nails are harder to paint than acrylic/gel. Otherwise, tips like these & practice, practice, practice! You'll get there!☺️
This method gave me the BEST results! Thank you!
If I would have known how to polish like this I would have never learned how to do gel nails!! Could watch this all day!!
I was hyped to see someone perfectly paint a natural nail. Not someone pretending a perfectly smooth acrylic nail was a natural nail.
for sure natural nails need love too!
I like that you show it on all fingers, because they have different form
Genius! I’m learning so much thanks to you! When I do my poly gel then polish my nails, I’m going to feel so much confident applying it!!!!🥰😘
Jeanniene Baker Awesome!!!
I can learn a lot from your videos and more. Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Guys are awesome! I like it when guys get into a women's head and play around in our world.
❤️❤️
How cool to see a man doing this. You did a great job. Thanks for the tips.
He was excellent at explaining what 2 do n wat not 2 do n how to make it easier with the finger holding the weight
Thank you for.i am a newly licensed nail tach and this is a sweet refresher . Very short clear explanation without a lot of rambling thank goodness 🌹great video
Welcome!
I absolutely love that colour !!😊
So love watching your videos this technique has helped me with not only regular polish application but with my gel polish applications my clients are so happy with the results I can now give them.
Great help for me. Even my wife does nails and teaches me. I learned a lot from your video.
There’s just something about nice, clean man hands! 😂 loved your booth at Orlando premier! So awesome that you and Tracy were out there with customers!
Lol, always!
I just did my nails last week and tempted to change it up while using this method! I also feel like a round ish wide brush makes a huge difference ...
I wish this gentleman was my nail instructor in Cosmology school! He’s a fantastic educator! Great video!
Im here because my girlfriend wants to save money and part of that is cutting back the expense of getting her nails done. Im a proffesional house painter so I figured this cant be too much different from what I do everyday. I also have a daughter who will benefit from this. I got you girls 💪
Caption polish is super awesome the brush distributes just the right amount of polish,love it❤❤😁😁
❤❤
Omg all your nail art is so fresh and beautiful
This is the best technique I’ve watched!!
❤️
Glad to see this tutorial. A lot of technicians do not know how to polish. My technique of polishing is like yours. The only difference is that I clean the nail as I go when it gets on the skin.

I needed this useful tutorial....
Thanks Greg!!! 💖

That color polish is Beautiful!!!!!
@therealmccoy122405 They called it xxoo kissy face in the comments, then in another comment they called it Slump Bump. Worth a Google of both names to see which it is!
I think the brand might be Caption(?) It seemed like he mentioned that several times in relation to the polish.
I'm trying to find out as well. Looking at all the colors, it might be "Here's the Deal".
The color is Caption's "Peep the Goods." I have the polish and it is just beautiful!
I love the way you explain and break down even the most “rudimentary” tasks as a technician. I appreciate all you do to help us be the best we can!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Oh em jeee I love that burgandy color and thanks for showing up your technique
It is so nice to learn from you, Greg. You are the best ...greetings from Holland to you all....
❤️❤️
I agree, this video is really a big help for us beginners. I love the tips you gave here.
I've got to try and hold the polish and fingers the way you do. You have so much control ... great class! 😁👍

I'm in school now for nail tech , this is a great video .Thank you so much
I love Nail School! X
Natalie Mugridge Nail Artist why not just polish it the same way as the base coat?
Speaking directly to me! It's a real struggle sometimes...
I wish you had a video on how she did her nails to make them short and natural looking. Everyone has videos on long false nails. I love the look of her nails.
Cat 181314 dont let them fool u those nails had acrylic or some other material added to them b4 they even started notice how pink and smooth they were although they said they had buffed them to dehydrate them. Iv never saw any1 with natural nails like that.
He said we're going to pretend it's natural.
Lisa Swarn ok, I want to see SHORT ACRYLIC NAILS. They are beautiful, and they look natural for acrylic nails.
Basically, I like short acrylic nails and you don't see these type of nails on RUclips being done
Cat 181314 Cat 181314 I would imagine they are more manageable. I like them too!! See 2:27
You forgot to mention to look for polishes with fanned bristles because if you have cheap polishes the bristles are thick and theres no movement.

We recommend caption polish from young nails of course!
@@youngnailsinc yes, thats how we hustle. Always promote the business Your protein bond is nothing but the best so my polish lasts longer. 😈
