I’m so glad I found your page and videos. I’m licensed and have also drowned myself in RUclips videos for acrylic, soft, and hard gel. So I felt like there’s nothing more I could learn except maybe nail art. So thank you for this video series
@@PaolaPonceNails I just finished your masterclass course and I hope I can make it for the Kokoist certification. I have a few Kokoist products but I never fully committed. I’m that nail tech that wanted to do it all. Offer everything but yet not mastering anything yet. So I’m purging my collections. I have a lot of random things from 3-5 acrylic brands to hard gels to only a small amount of platinum duo bond
I have been doing my own nails for more than a year now and I only use gel products. I would say that they are more on the harder side as I use poly gel to sculpt sometimes. My current steps are: 1- Prep by shaping and buffing 2- Thin layer of base gel 3- Structure with base gel and extension with polygel 4- Color/design with any gel polish 5- Topcoat Coming across your channel has given me so much information about the soft gel system, and I hope to transition to soft gel in the future since I want to have healthier nails. *My question is: would you recommend me to get a gel base and builder that has more viscosity?* Coming form polygel or hard gel to soft gel!
love all your videos. i do my nails myself and just started with bottled gel . now i want to try kokoist products, can you give me a list of things i'll need in order to start good?

Thank you for the info!!! I will mention this video in my next video.
Could you do a video on how to build a perfect apex using Japanese gels? 🤗
Noted.
Love the video, thank you for sharing!! For those problematic nails, what bonder or primer do you recommend using?
Something like Protein Bond or Ageha.
@@PaolaPonceNails thank you for replying 😊

Hi are these japanese gelsnonly for professionals or can private individuals buy them too?
Should I use Japanese gels for press-ons?
Can you use gel polishes on top of the second step before top coating please x
Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you for watching Rachel ❤️
Thank you
Thank you so much for this video. Would you recommend using all 3 if I want to strengthen my natural nails? Or simply the base and top?
All 3. Do not soak off, File flat, and re-apply !
@@PaolaPonceNails Thanks so much
I can only did 99% and 70% alcohol, what should I do?
I also found some 95% but not 91%
i found 91 at cvs. try looking at a pharmacy :)
70% has too much water for nail prep, your gels will lift. Use the 99%.
@@MarissaMagn0lia I’m in Canada 😭😭
@@PaolaPonceNails the percentage isn’t too high?
💜💕
Very confusy
Where can I explain further?
