    I have never seen a nail professional who does stamping. I wish lived near you, I would visit your salon! Your swatch wheels are amazing, they must have taken so much time.

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety +1

      +GallieSallie stamping is very popular in my salon, my clients love it!
      Thank you for your kind words.
      I would hate to think just how long it has taken me to get my salon organised and all my swatches done. Luckily for me they weren't all done at once, I just do them as new products arrive.

  • @angelbabesuz1612
    @angelbabesuz1612 Před 7 lety

    Bel, your salon is beautiful, I love everything in it and love how organised you are, all those little drawers full of goodies, I have never seen so much products in one place, absolutely amazing. I haven't even heard of a polish shaker before, never knew there was such a thing lol ~~~clients must love coming to you because everything is just perfect, clean, neat & tidy, I could only ever dream of having as much products as you, I have to work on our dining table when I do my practice and I have 3 tiny drawers with not a lot in them so this really excited me, I love seeing other nail techs work stations. One thing I really need is a good lamp because I'm just working with a basic desk lamp that does not give much light but gives too much heat and sometimes dries out the acrylic too fast, but I will get there one day! :) TFS your amazing salon hunni xx

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 7 lety

      yes I have a lot of products. My clients love it as I am always buying new things.
      With so much stuff I really have to keep it organised well so I know where to find it when I need it.
      I love my salon, its my happy place.
      Since this video I have changed the room a bit and my decor.... I really must do an update because its even nicer now.
      Thank you for watching my video and for leaving a comment x

    @svillarreal66 Před 9 lety +1

    Wow I am so impressed, you are the most organized person I've ever seen. I wish my salon looked just like yours. My biggest problem is nail/ acrylic dust is everywhere. I use the sunflower dust extractor and a mini desktop dust extractor... I still have dust everywhere. I also own a Valentino but stopped using it since it was so loud. Thanks for showing your salon, hope to have my salon looking as tidy as yours soon.

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety +1

      +Sarita Gonzalez I love my Valentino.. I only use it on the low setting and find that works well for me... but yes, it can be loud! Thank you for your kind words. I am a bit OCD and I absolutely hate it when I can't find something. I am sure I could organise some of the drawers better but this will do for now.

    I enjoyed your room tour . Very nice , tidy and so organized you are . Hey , the uv / led lamp the link don't work . Is it available with a plug for the USA ? I'm interested in a lamp that cures both .

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 9 lety

      ***** Hi Denise, thank you very much.
      Yes the lamp does come with US cord/plug. I will leave the link here, let me know if it doesn't work....
      Just so you know this lamp cures EVERYTHING... I have never had any issues with it, I have used CND (Shellac, Brisa Lite, etc) products in it along with ibd, Trugel, Progel, NSI gel polishes.
      www.ebay.com.au/itm/60W-Powerful-LED-CCFL-Nail-Lamp-for-UV-Gel-Polish-Cure-Very-Fast-Pro-Nail-Dryer-/321400001159?var=&hash=item4ad4eed287

    • @Denisejohn65NailEd
      @Denisejohn65NailEd Před 9 lety

      Bels Gels So this light cures uv thick builder gels ? I'm confused as to what the ccfl means ? I looked it up but am still puzzled . I do want to get a light for all the gels ...uv and led ....and having the auto turn on is great too

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 9 lety

      ***** yes I believe so although the only builder gels I have tried are CND Brisa Lite.
      You just choose the time recommended for the product. You don't select between LED/CCFL as such, all the globes light up when its activated...... its just the time that determines the cure of the product.
      So in actual fact if you were curing a gel polish for 30 seconds it would be getting a LED + CCFL cure, I hope that makes sense.
      I don't know the scientific explanation of it... I just bought mine after seeing a few Australian techs who use them and recommended them.
      The auto feature was also a must for me and for swatching purposes its great to have a manual over-ride as well as swatches don't always get picked up by the sensor.
      I love mine and bought a second one as a bit of an indulgence but I am glad I did... no more twisting and turning for my clients.

    • @Belindaswlsjourney
      @Belindaswlsjourney Před 8 lety

      cool beans having the same name , whats your middle name just curious...lol..im so jealous of all the product you have have, I have a small nail room compared to yours...but I'm working on it...when you get time can you make a tip on salon business...if not its ok ill still watch...god bless

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety

      my middle name is Anne... I don't really like it much. And most people call me Bel.
      I have been doing nails for over 3 years now so I have collected so much stuff over that time. I am a bit crazy when it comes to buying nails supplies, if I want it I buy it!
      I don't really run my salon like most do... I actually have an office job which I love and that is my main source of income.
      Nails are an interest and a hobby to me. I decided to do the course and then just see how things went.
      I have about 7 or 8 clients which I service on weekends. Sometimes its crazy as I can go 3 weeks without a day off. I am currently not taking on new clients as I am just too busy.
      So I am probably not the best person to ask about the business side of things.
      All I can say is make it work for you, around you. Having a salon at home people can expect you to be at their beck and call. I stay firm with my times and days I work and over time they have learnt that if they need to reschedule then they have to take the risk it might be a while before I can fit them in. It helps I have loyal clients who all come on a 3 weekly schedule.

    • @Belindaswlsjourney
      @Belindaswlsjourney Před 8 lety

      That's good advice about the keeping firm on the scheduling...I have about 25 dependable clients that come around the clock and they know if I got other things to do that ill have to try and fit them in...they pay for my low prices and great nail art.

  • @SoniaAlexandrou

    I.love.your.OCD. This video was so enlightening :O Thank you for taking the time to do this, i got some pretty serious investments and changes to do around my little home salon!

    Im a fan!

    Just love this video 💕 how wide is your desk in inches? I’m trying to get a new one and don’t want it too wide for my clients thanks

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 6 lety

      thank you so much.
      the Width from me to the client is 20.5 inches (52cm). I find it the perfect distance.
      Also I dont have arms on my clients chair as I find it helps to stop them slouching so its not a tug of war all the time getting them to put their hands in reach for me to work.
      Hope that helps.

    just a quick question Re Led / Uv lamp :) I just bought one of these babies the other day haven't use it yet though need to buy my adapter what are the curing times for gel polish etc that you use I have ask a few others and am getting crazy different times LOL.. P.S love the tour :)

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety

      +Belinda H Hi Belinda, the curing depends on the product instructions. ie: if a gel polish says LED 30 seconds or UV 120 seconds, cure for 30 seconds. So just check on what the products recommend.
      There is no switch as such to differentiate between LED or UV cure on the unit, both lights are activated when it comes on so in actual fact its only the time that matters.
      I hope that make sense.
      Let me know if you have any other questions xo

    @DelphineSerenity Před 8 lety

    Loved this, I'm in Tasmania, and in the process of setting up my own home salon as well. Do you find it a lot better to have 2 lamps rather than 1? I'm trying to work out the most comfortable set up/position to put my lamp on my manicure table. Currently I live in a teeny one bedroom apartment, with my nail area set up just in the corner of my lounge, but in Feb I'll be moving to a 2 or 3 bedroom place so I can have a proper full room :)

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety

      +Areiniah MLS thank you so much.
      I love having two lamps. It makes it much easier when curing one hand and painting the other. I find the client has to contort a lot less as well.
      Also with the two lamps I find the client leaves their hand in the lamp once the lamp has switched off which means there's less chance they will get lint or dust on their nails by putting them where they shouldn't or playing with their phone

    Hi Bel, I'm getting a polish shaker soon and I'm torn between the one you have and the Robart Paint Shaker. Was there any reason you decided to go with the ForPro one over the Robart? Interested to hear before I purchase one.Ps, I realised from your triple foil tutorial you're from South Australia ;) I'm surprised your client didn't pick her foils off after the Crows didn't make it to the end...but that's another topic all together...lol!! :)

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety

      +MissRhyanna I think it was the price, this one was slightly cheaper. It also came with the power adaptor cord and I think the other one didn't.
      This client is a die hard Crows Supporter so she kept them on for as long as she could, lol. I think she had some red carpet club events she attended also - the nails were such a hit with so many of the supporters!

    • @MissRhyanna
      @MissRhyanna Před 8 lety +1

      Thanks for responding, it always helps to hear if someone has tried one first hand. I actually like the look of the ForPro one rather than the Robart Paint Shaker too, it will suit my beauty room better...lol. I agree about the power cord, I heard a few reviews people had problems with the battery operated ones. These shakers I think will be great for glitters are densely pigmented polishes like white and pastels. They drive me nuts trying to shake gel polishes by hand without creating dreaded bubbles which effect the polish application...argh! :)

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety

      +MissRhyanna oh yes they are fantastic for glitter ones and also when the pigment has settled.
      I also use Mundo de Unas stamping polish which has a tendency to separate and its great using it on that too.
      I also prefer the look of this one and its so neat and compact and easy to store.

      Gels only cure with a certain frequency and the light is a weaker frequency so it does not affect the curing of the gels at all.

      I now have a valentino dust extractor which helps to eliminate smells. This room is really well ventilated as well with two doors and a huge window. I have a fan that sits to my right and points as the window which helps to push the smell in that direction.
      This salon is located in my home and I find if I put the wipe I use for my acrylic brush into the trash bin outside the smell of acrylic disappears within an hour.

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 7 lety

      Yeah its all part of the desk. It was a complete unit. I paid $50AUD for it second hand, complete bargain! Originally it cost $600AUD. Win for me! I just looked around on the classified ads and found something i knew would be suitable. Its really large but I am lucky to have a large room to accommodate it.

      hey come to think of it IKEA have some great storage ideas that you can mix and match and put things together. A friend of mine has a similar set up but much smaller. Hers is white and she bought it from IKEA. You get the cube bookcase thing but you can add doors, drawers and shelves to them I think.

    • @andemaiar
      @andemaiar Před 8 lety

      +Bels Gels It's no problem! You sound very busy. I did my training at One on One Nails, but it was extremely basic. I'm doing a few hours work experience at at a beauty spa, but I don't really get to do any nails there very often and they don't do acrylic. I'm required to do 60 hours work experience in total, so I'm asking around at other places too.

    • @BelsGels
      @BelsGels  Před 8 lety

      +andemaiar the best piece of advice I can give you is to constantly continue to do workshops etc. A lot of people think once they have their certificate then that's it. I can tell you that most techs are not great when they first start out, you need to constantly challenge yourself and practice practice practice. There are so many good educators here in Adelaide who do one on one workshops or even run small groups. If you are having issues then tap into your resources.
      Have you chosen a brand yet? If not I can put you onto my distributor who is based here in Adelaide. Not only does she have fantastic customer service but she helps to answer so many questions I have and she is very well informed in the nail industry.

      if you mean the glass top I did give measurements for this on the video and also included the link to Ikea where I bought it from... but just incase you missed it, its 52cm depth and 1 metre wide. I am not sure of the height as I did not buy the legs from ikea however I am sure all the info is on their website.

      a lot of nail techs have 2 lamps. It means that clients don't have to contort themselves to put their hands in the lamp.
      It can be annoying for a tech if a client is twisting, turning and moving when you are trying to neatly paint the other hand
