    Some people think they can just do it after watching a few RUclips videos. Hell I’ve been doing nails for 2 years, yet I still learn everyday new things. My teacher who’s been teaching for 30 years, yet she’s still learning everyday. It takes time and some people won’t get that through their heads.

      I can't afford salon manicures very often, and at current costs going to beauty school is entirely out of the question, so I started watching pro videos and practicing. After 150 dedicated hours of practice on my own, I can do decently but still nowhere near the level of nail art a professional can do, and I've never had the reviews and insights that a real teacher can offer from looking at someone's work. The basics are easy to learn but it takes aLOT of work and practice to become a professional.

      I know that RUclips videos won't replace schooling. I am a Senior on a fixed income and the closest school is 60 miles away. I am going to get the best education that RUclips has to offer so that I can do a proper job on my nails.

      *smiles* yeah exactly! And here is a fun fact, cheap polish from the drugstore and walmart work GREAT!! My entire collection comes from wet n wild, sally hansen, and LA Colors. We might not become pro's, but we can sure have way too much fun wiht it anyway hehehe

      Charrissa Cunningham how has your experience been? I only have 1 year left of high-school and I need to make the decision on furthering my education towards a profession so since I love nails I'm looking to be a nail technician, do u think it's best to be a nail technician or cosmetologist? I'm considering which would have better pay off. I've heard cosmetology focusses more on hair, is that true?

    • @Insain_creations
      @Insain_creations 6 лет назад +2

      I love it. I recommend going to a smaller school with less students. We have 20 students in the whole school that's including cosmetology nails and Esthetics and I love it because we get so much one-on-one and for which you want to do it depends on if you're passionate about hair as well because it hair is included and is being main thing in cosmetology and the great thing about going to cosmetology is that if you do want to break from doing nails you could switch it up and do facials or switch it up and do makeup or switch it up and do hair but in school you do mainly focus on hair but it gives you a wider variety on what you can do and you don't get bored with just doing one thing

    • @Insain_creations
      @Insain_creations 6 лет назад
