  • Welcome Welcome Welcome to the Kirsty Meakin Show!!
    In Today's video I will be showing you how to apply fiber gel using your non-dominant hand, I do it a little bit differently from the “Proper way” keep watching!
    So as you can see my nails are looking a little worse for wear, so I'm going to give them the Fiber Gel treatment.
    I'll start by using my e-file with my cuticle bit and give my cuticles a whaz around then ill move on to my proximal fold bit and get rid of any dry skin.
    Now ill take a 240 grit file and go over nice and light duck just to abraise that top surface and make sure there is no shine on my natural nail were not obliterating the nail here guys.
    Next up ill give my nails a wipe over using the Nailchemy Cleanser.
    Now ill take the Nailchemy Cameo Fiber Gel and ill start by applying a thin layer on my nails, now usually what we would do after a cure is to get a lot of product on the brush and Ziggy Zag it down the nail but when working on my non-dominant hand I don’t do that, what I'm going to do instead is keep building up those thin layers but we will pull the bulk of the product into the back third of the nail and turn that over for a few seconds to form our apex and I'm going to do 4 layers with this process as opposed to the 3 layers on the Ziggy Zag Process as my 2nd and 3rd layer won’t be as thick as they usually would.
    Now with all the product, I need on my nails I'm going to give them a clean over with the Nailchemy Cleanser, and then we are ready to file.
    So now ill take my Metal file and Straighten up my sidewalls.
    Then ill Take my 180 Grit File and file my nails into shape then ill give them a buff followed by another clean with the Nailchemy Cleanser.
    Now ill give them a top coat using the one and only Kirsty Meakin Glossy Top Coat.
    Now ill finish up with a little bit of cuticle oil i'm using Drama Queen by indigo nails
    There You are That's it! I hope this helps you and check back next time.

    I'm left handed and I'm enjoying watching you use your left hand. We have the reverse problem all of the time because you are probably not aware of how many ordinary items are intended for use with the right hand.
    BTW your nails look nice.

      Kirsty and Adam left, because she wasn't allowed to use any other products than theirs and if they weren't as good as she would like, she couldn't say so. She now can use any manufacturer, any product and be honest about if she likes it or not and what she would change with it etc. She has also just brought out her own range of gel polishes, which she wouldn't have been able to do if she'd stayed with Naio.

    Second, as someone who would love to be able to do their own nails I have a bit of a problem. My nails are mostly flat, with only my pinky having a natural c curve and when my nails begin to grow the corners grow up in a curve. Is there any advice you can give me on how to combat this?

    • @FrechesMädchen
      @FrechesMädchen Před 2 lety +2

      Fibergel is way stronger than builder in a bottle. So when you do longer nails is best to use fiber because it's strength. Builder in a bottle isn't bad by any means but i prefer It for short to Medium lenght. But honestly you can Use them both either way.
