I'm always amazed that Suzie doesn't mangle her own nails when filing someone else's.
I do that on my own nails all the time
True I don’t get that either
She has years and years of experience, in sure if we saw suzie 10 years ago she had the occasional mangled pointer fingernail from nail tech duties
Baramaat she has said before gel she used to go home and fix her nails every night. Gel was/is a game changer, before gel I wouldn’t even bother with how hard I am on my hands. I imagine she has days she touches a couple up , with gel it’s so
Easy and fast ;)
S. W. I’d imagine she still does on occasion;), but gel is so easy and fast to fix .
Suzie, I started my nail career in the 80's, yes that curve was the RAGE, & I was an expert at it, ha ha.
Louise Nowka how do you file underneath without taking that curve away? I would love to see how you did it
Omg how do you make the curve?? I want my nails curved
They were calles hawk curve here. I liked them but not so much now lol
I remember the 90s very well and those claws were everything hahaha
@@floridagirl386 They can cut your natural short and then place the nail on at an angle. The finished result will be a curvy nail. Go for it.
Suzie, after battling a very serious illness I was left unable to return to my labour intensive job. I have been out of work for a few years now and I hate it, but I'm not qualified for anything else, I started at my last job when I was 14. Anyway I love watching your videos, so Maybe the sound of your voice got stuck in the back of my head or something because I've finally figured out a way to get back to work in a way that will be practical, enjoyable (I have already practiced a lot on myself and friends, I used to do it for fun and I got pretty good!) and achievable. I found a great school and I'm going to study nail technology in 2020 😁 you cannot know how much your videos inspire and teach me and I'm so, so grateful for your content. My children and I will have better lives once I am working again and I can't shake the feeling you have something to do with that. Thank you, truly.
Sincerely all the way from Australia
Emmie Ana Ray this is amazing!! Good luck on your new adventure🥰
Good luck! 🍀🌼 I hope everything works out in your favor ☺️
Good luck, you're gonna be amazing at it 💗💗💗
I’m about to be 16 and my mum said I can go to college for nails and I’m so excited :3
Great for You!! Wish You only the best on your journey ♡
Suzie id love to see you recreate nails and nail trends that were popular through the years. You could do a different decade for each finger (if you can stand mismatched nails 🤣). I would just love to see how nail trends have come and gone, and how the knowledge has changed.
LOVE This idea!
Oooh yes!!!!
yesss
Yes! Great idea!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Suzie: "If you take care of this brush, it'll last you for years."
Also Suzie: places cap gently on brush and throws it to the side of the desk
😂😂😂 I love her haha
Hahahaha i thought that too/ i have alot of faith in my cap
@@NailCareerEducation I'm hoping to get your files/brush set before, if not by christmas ❤🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
It's because she's bloomin' awesome 😁
😂😂😂😂
YES LMAO
I'm not even a nail technician but I really enjoy watching your videos. I think the quality of your work looks beautiful but also it's very well filmed and edited. So kudos to all guysAa
This video is much needed! Thanks Suzie 😊
I think a lot of people don’t realize that the extreme curve makes the nail extension less strong. I notice that a lot of long acrylic nails with the deep curve break right at the stress point.
I feel like this is something that should be addressed at each fill so it doesn't get such a strong curve. When I do fills I always reshape the sidewalls to maintain the client's preferred shape.
yes,thats what i do too
How can this he corrected on comepletely natural nails? My nails are pretty long and my index finger nails curves downward... am I just screwed?
Suzie: "you take care of this brush it will last you for years"
Also Suzie: *throws it down*
YEET
She didn't actually throw it.. She put it down on the side of her table.
Suzie could you fix my life like you fix nails 😂
Yes!!! I think allot of us need that!!😁
Oh yes please!!!
Me tooooo!!!!
Yes, right. I am a volunteer here!!!! 🖐️🖐️🖐️
Yes, please!
My pointer fingers BOTH curve like hers, so it's so nice to know that there is a way to correct that. I hate getting acrylics because it makes the natural curve that much more dramatic.
Same, it's just the pointer fingers
Me too, both pointer fingers and I have long natural nails.
Yup.. my right pointer finger for sure lol
Out of all the nail techs that I follow on CZcams don't get me wrong I love them all I love the work they do the designs the inspiration but Susie is my favorite because she is so technical and it is so beneficial the information that she provides!!!
Nneka Okeke she’s such a professional 😊
I love how you explain everything! I learned a lot from you and have been doing my own nails for the past 3 years now.
Omg! My natural nails have a similarly extreme hook shape. When they get long I can’t even press my seatbelt release button. 🤦🏾♀️
I love Suzie so much. She won't disparage the curve, because it's a matter of trends and personal taste, and not only that she shows generally how to get EITHER the straighter or more curved look. She’s so sweet, even about things she doesn't like.
Thank you so much for all your hard work and for sharing your talents with us! You have completely inspired me! 😍
So knowledgeable. I could listen to Suzie all day.
My nails points upward instead. They always have since I used to be a nailbiter for about 20+ years.... please find someone with that and show us how to fix it ❤
Yes, please! Also a reformed nail biter but the upwards curve also runs in my family.
That’s called ski-jump nails! I’d go through the steps, which aren’t too complicated, but here’s an awesome little article that sums it up pretty well. I’d love to see Suzie demonstrate!
www.nailsmag.com/392670/acrylics-can-cosmetically-correct-ski-jump-nails
I am also a reformed nail biter and my C curve is more like a wonky V curve. I would love to see a video on correcting all types of nail bed deformities from chronic nail biting.
Yep! Unfortunately any damage to the nail beds can absolutely be permanent. Best way to fix, is to wear false enhancements.
I'm sure you still want to see how though.. lol
Thank you Suzie!!! I have been looking for a video covering this for months - I did ask about it in nail school but it was difficult to picture without seeing it done! Thank you so much - I have a friend who has nails like this and I’m dying to do them now!
Can I just say thank you so much for telling us how long it took you to get into the groove of doing clients and how you had a low point of being frustrated. As a student, I've been finding it hard to find clients and I've found myself getting frustrated with my technique. This helped me so much! Thank you!
susie what was the drill bit you used to remove the acrylic? it was so amazing and did the job so quickly!
I love Suzie can’t wait to do one of her classes
Where does she do her classes
@@saharasimpson4350 in Vancouver
Thank you so much! As a beginner, I was very interested to know why my nails have started to curve a bit and you’ve answered it beautifully!!!
Just discovered you a couple of days ago, started to do my own nails during lockdown
, your totorals are Amazing 💅 thank you Suzie ❤️
suzie is the ina garten of the nail industry
GloomTombs 1 maaaan could imagine a collab?! 😳😍
Wow your so right omg
Perfect! My friend has very strong hooked nails too with a high natural arch also... Settles to watch the video...
Terminology is confusing. I use C-curve to describe the horizontal sidewall to sidewall curve, and arch to describe the cuticle to tip arch. It's much less confusing that way. And I have both a strong arch and C-curve, too.
I've been wanting to do my own nails. And I'm so glad I came across yr videos! I look forward to learning everything 😊
Thanks Susie for the tutorial. So informative. I love Chelsea’s hair and nails.
I love her curved nails. She could pass for your daughter. Your both very beautiful! You have such a beautiful soul Susie, I love watching your vlogs!
Tina did you see her last video. It had her actually daughter in it!
yes they do look like quite similar
Susanna Osinski I did she looked like a younger version of Susie.
@th1smomentisfate Ikr! They look like they're around the same age to me, so I thought that comment was kinda offensive towards Suzie.
I love the curve 💖💖💖
This was so great 💜💜💜💜
You commented on my previous post that you were going to do a video on curved nails and you did 😍😍😍😍😍😍💘💘💘💘💘
THANK YOU!!!! YOU ROCK!!!!😚🌺🌺🌺
You're so good at what you do Mrs. Suzie. I seriously love & appreciate all the knowledge you share with us. Also love how authentic you are.. no sugar coating or BS. One more thing where did you get your monomer dispenser? I want a metal pump dispenser like that so much lol. Thank you for being such a fabulous teacher to soooooo many of us.
I would've liked to see the pinky under side for the shaping. But looks stunning
I was expecting her to show us how she did it.
Yay 😁 thanks Suzie!! needed that tutorial. Especially for clients who have natural curvy nails. Love 💕 your work!
Awesome video Mrs. Suzie and very very helpful because I have the deep deep curve natural nail as well and I always have this problem and now because of you of course I can fix it with no problem thank you so much luv and thanks for sharing and showing much love always xoxo 💅💕💕💕
So glad you posted this video, my pinky nail curved down. So was wondering how to fix it without cutting it off. Thanks so much!
All my nails are like that. I’ve been trying to grow them out without gel or acrylics but it seems like I cannot correct them without product 😭😭
I’ve got a very pronounced natural curve to my natural nails. I appreciate these tips.
Thank you so much for your educational content, you make it look so easy! You make me feel like I'm taking a class.
As always you are such a wonderful teacher. XO’s 💕
Has anyone else seen those nail drills that are sold at Walmart, I would love to see Suzie use it or hear her opinion on it.
Look on youtube, there's plenty of videos! Just look up walmart nail drill
Sophia Young-Bolton I got a battery one at dollar tree! It works.. only on natural nail. I have a Kupa e file too but I had to try the dollar tree one 🤣
The ten dollar white and pink one is excellent for natural nails and regular/gel manicures. Not strong enough to drill acrylic though. There's also one for 25 dollars.. haven't used that one
That natural arch it’s beautiful it’s from the early 90’s 2000’s nails style a lot of young people don’t know about that wink 😉
I love your videos Suzie 💕✨ always so helpful 😊
Love your videos Suzie. Inspired me to be a nail tech part time. Want to grow more. Love from Swaziland 💖🇸🇿
I love a straight line with a good apex.
Love your videos!!! Thanks for sharing with us!!!💜💖💜
Thank you so much for addressing this subject Suzie, my index finger nails hook & they start to curve towards my thumb's. Not very pretty at all. When I used to go to the local salon, they never attempted to correct the problem. Well after avidly watching you & a few others on CZcams, I decided to train as a nail tech. I got through my exam in October, thank you for all the wonderful information you share with us all. I'm so grateful for everyone who shares the art of nails on CZcams, it helped me so much to get through my diploma. Thanks again 😊💅💞😍❤️
This is exactly the video I needed!!! I started doing my own nails and the strong curve has been my Achilles heel.
THANK YOU!!! I have Club Nails & this will be a life changer!!!!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 NO ONE has ever been able to correct them, but this just taught me🤗🤯 ❤️
Hopefully redundant: if you haven't already, then please make sure with your doctor that your club nails isn't a symptom of any of the diseases that usually cause club nails
Oh gosh I’ve been watching so many of your videos on quarantine right now Suzie and I didn’t even realize you’re the famed nail tech teacher that have taught all my friends here in the Westshore! I finally realized when I now see my friend Chelsea in your video! Crazy small world :). Absolutely loving your videos and nails. You are extremely talented.
Oh that is so cool!! 😁
Awesome video, Suzie! I have a finger where the nail grows straight but my fingertip curves up at an angle. I’d love to see what you’d do for that.
Suzie, please tell me what drill & handpiece you were using in this particular video... I need a new one and this one powered through the acrylic during the shortening!
I would love to have natural curvy nails like hers, they're gorgeous. I would have my set removed and cut short so that I can get the curve.
jjaguar707 I love it too. I remember when I was a kid in the 70s I used to dream I’d have beautiful curved nails when I became a grown woman. Now my nails naturally grow curved!
I love the curve also
@@Inkblot67 I still wear curve despite trends bc it pleases me when I look at them. You have been naturally blessed with them, I love it
Me too...i have a natural curve to my nail. I like to enhance it as much as possible
YESSS BEEN WAITING FOR A VIDEO LIKE THIS
Omg...the heavens have heard my nail prayers 😂 My non-dominant hand nail beds were damaged when I was a child so they curve when they grow out. This was the reason I decided to learn how to do my own nails. Thank you Suzie for the variety of content in your videos 😘
I actually love a strong curved nail, lol. I used to have a hard time explaining 'I don't want flat nails'.
Susie: If you take care of this brush it will last you years
Also Susie: *throws brush on the table*
I have this type of nail, and I have my own methods, but I'm excited to know more about it ♡
Ann Garmendia Jiménez What do you do to have straight nails?
I usually go for the neutral and pink colors but this pearly color is *amazing* !! ❤️✨
Hey, you could call her old nail 'Archie' just a thought, lol
I went to high school with a girl that her natural nail grew straight down at the end of her fingers so she had L shaped nails. This was in a time before acrylic nails. (I'm almost 63) I've often thought how odd and why. My daughter's toe nails when she was born would end up embedded into the front of her toes by growing down into the end of the toe. I would pull them up and keep them short. She's had problems with ingrown toe nails but they no longer grow out that way. My grandmother had a split nail from an injury at work and when acrylics came out she had that finger done and it eventually grew out without the split and fixed it. She had very strong nails and could grow hers without problems other than the split getting caught on things and breaking. I learn so much watching your channel. My nails don't like to keep polish on, it floats off while doing dishes sometimes whole. They bend and break. I've worn acrylics before and used to do my own. Might do them again sometime, I'm liking the coffin and almond shapes.
If your nail polish eeps floating off, try dehydrating the nail with acetone before painting them, and probably a new base coat and/or top coat
I was looking forward to this video! Waited all morning!
OMG Thank you Suzie! I stopped doing my nails with acrylics because I hate my index finger nail hook. But I see therés a solution for that! Thank you!
My nails will grow with that curve but separate from the acrylic nails. I end up with a gap under the acrylic nail, feeling like I have to redo my whole set. Do you know how to fix that? Love you videos!
Her and Christine from simply nailogical should make a video together
No h in her name ahhh
And also with NaioNails
This is so helpful! Just the other day I noticed my acrylics curving! What bit are you using for that removal of gel and acrylic? 👍
I love your channel, its like a talkactive show but so relaxing at the same time
Hey Suzie I’m a new beginner nail artist and I have a nail acrylic monomer that smells a bit to much, I wanted to ask what nail monomer do you think wouldn’t smell to much and that would still be good to use
Denyeliz Batista you can buy scents for your monomers to help mask the smell a bit.
Oh okay thank you so much for the information
So, how would you correct nails that "bounce" upwards? 😊
I also have one nail that goes upwards
I have 2 nails that goes upwards. And it bothers me. 🤦🏻♀️🙂
Oh yes!!! My pinkies are super curved up and it bothers me so much! I have eight beautiful long straight natural nails and nails on my pinkies are just cut really really short
All my nails grow upwards, i had them done once and they look so ugly....
Luminary system will temporarily correct ski slope nails
That's awesome I never seen anything like it but it's very cool
I'm not a nail technician but I just love watching your videos. I work in a lab where everything has to be precisely and carefully made. Maybe that's why I love your work? A nail top scientist. Kisses from Brazil
Thats me, I'm the one!! I love curved nails 😊❤
Me too love them so much
When I got acrylics I always wanted the curve. I thought it looked more natural. Lol
Cinderfire I build atop my natural nail. They tend to curve that way.
Me too! I love that curve!
Vixen RedCarpet 🙌🏻
Cinderfire I like a curve too. Straight out nails look weird to me.
I had no idea so many other women have the same exact curve of the index finger. I’m so glad to know it’s fixable and I am not the only woman who has a curved nail. It’s just my index finger so far but I want to fix it before it gets worse. It’s hard to keep beautiful nails when you’re taking care of kids and family but it’s something I try to do for myself. Thank you for sharing your story and video. Looking forward to seeing more. Susie you’re such an inspiration.
Omg Why do I love these videos so much!!
Have you done a video about dealing with more difficult clients. Those that don’t like what you’ve done, and you have to redo or change things. Or people who try to tell you how to do your job?
Peris Bleau yeah but her client from hell is acrually her friend.
Why does everybody around me have strong and healthy claws while I'm sitting here with my "crack-when-u-just-look-at-them" paper nails..???? So unfair
This is going to sound weird, but you could take prenatal vitamins for about a month and see how your nails hold up afterwards. I had very fragile nails, but I've been doing that for just two weeks and there's already a difference.
Your nails might be dry. I find when I keep mine moisturized they're stronger. They bend a bit but they don't peel and flake.
You’re not alone
@@reneabullock1899 your diet, collagen and calcium levels. Stay hydrated is super important for brittle and "paper nails".
So eat as healthy as you can! Now, there's a product by O.P.I called Nail Envy. You need to ask the professional that's selling this straighter which formula is better for you and give it a try, it works wonders when I used it. Now, if you want to wear artificial nails, forget the nail envy haha.
I wish more nail techs were amazing like you. 😘
I see so many bad nail jobs, and people who don't know how to correct this!
They look awesome!!
what about nails that curve upwards? all of mine do that, and it drives me insane!
I have the same issue! I have always bitten my nails so I think that's why they do that, but I could be wrong. Is that why yours grow up too?
Alyssa Gil Photography i’ve never thought about that! i’m a nail biter too!
@@allie5656 I assumed that's why mine are like that because I'm the only person I know who bites their nails really bad, and I've also never seen anyone else's nails grow upwards! I really hope Suzie can give some insight to our issue!
I did a bit of research (since I have the same issue) and sometimes its caused by an iron deficiency, but im also an avid nail biter
My nails do this 😳. I end up doing a new set every 3 fills and angle the forms up. I also remove the nail growth from underneath with the efile, as it can cause lifting when the natural nails are left to grow.
Xx Luna 💅🏻
Thank God this video exists! Thank you Susie for creating a video encyclopedia for everything nails.
Nails are my hobby and I absolutely love it. I wish I could take your course but I'm in the USA.
When I get my nails done the technician makes my nails too flat. Can I ask her to build the arch more, or would that be rude?
ask her!! there’s nothing wrong with that :)
Don't ask her TELL HER it's your money girl and get them the way you want 🙂
Your nail. Your money. Tell her what you want.
Kayla Grech u pay so u ask
Hiya, Kayla Grech!
Each client should leave the salon with exactly the look that she wants, or one step closer to her "goal look" (there are a few conditions that need to be worked with over the course of a few appointments). Every time. If I may offer a suggestion, here it is :
The next time u call to make an appointment with your favourite nail tech, let her know that you would like to change the style/shape of enhancement from your usual style (especially if your regular fill is usually a very quick, "flying" visit). That way, if she needs to allow a little extra time for re-shaping/re-styling &/or discussion, she can build that time increase into your next appointment so that she's not having to rush to cram a bigger job into the short time allotted for a quick fill. It'll be a better & more relaxing all-around experience for both of you. :)
It might also be an idea to bring pix of the shape or style of nail that you have in mind, for clarity, preferably of:
1. the side profile of the nail, showing your preferred placement, shape, and apex of the arch along the nail bed/enhancement,
2. one taken of the overall nail so that she can see the shape from the top, and
3. one taken from the tip of the finger to see the thickness profile of the nail and your preferred shaping of the tip and sides of the nail, too. :)
I hope this helps!
-- an old nail tech.
So, I've been thinking a lot about how a nail tech would go about fixing acrylic on a clubbed thumb. How do you do it?
A series of videos on differently shaped fingers ie birth defects, injuries etc would be amazing!
Love it..n love your work.. Susie u are the best..
With love from Creete Greece 💅💅💅💅💗💗💗💗👏👏👏
Always informative and professional.
i have no idea why but i thought the repositioning technique was going to involve building up and shaping underneath.
Yes, I was not happy that that inch-thick pinky nail wasn't really addressed, too. It's obvious that it had to be thinned out from underneath, and be hollowed out so it looks like a fingernail and not a spike. And yes, it would have been easier to just cut it off and sculpt a new nail.
wow another idea ms suzie Thank you so much
Watching these because I’m in quarantine and can’t go to a salon so I’m gonna be doing my own nails 🥰
I’m part of the people who prefer a slight curve for a more natural look. Could you please teach us the opposite? To help ski-slope nails?
Lara Croce agreeeee
Yes!
The procedure is exactly the same - shorten and reform 👍🏼
I guess I'm just old, cause I thought Chelseas nails looked great.
Nah I love curved nails hate the new flat no apex nails that everyone raves about lol 😆 I do my own nails cuz the salons can't get them right always flat with very little product so they break easy and keep you going back just horrible. 😆
I finally got 2 of my natural nails long enough to not have to use tips or forms. I just noticed yesterday that they were more curved than the others. Crazy u put this exact video up today lol
WOW >>>> you have some awesome filing skills ... great info ... thank you ...
What about people like me that their nails turn up ward the more they grow
brooke cox you can fix them if you want to but, in romania , it’s this trend when you create this type of nails and it Looks really good and they are named slim nails
@@lorenapopescu9167 i didn't know thst thank u
I feel you. My pinkies do that
My nail does that naturally without acrylics so I guess theres no hope for me lol
I love a good hooked nail! I used to buy the eagle claw tips.
My natural nails ALWAYS separate. I have to do a full nail set every 2 to 3 months because it gets bad.
I am so glad you are addressing this cause all of my nails grow that way and I have very High natural apexes. I can't stand them either and your right in the 80's they were extremely popular cause most of the tips were made that way also. How do you correct them so they don't continue to grow that way? I was thinking of getting acrylic nails to correct it but it won't will it?
Anybody else think that chelsea looks a lot like cara delevigne?
Kinda sorta
Personally, I love curved nails. 🤷♀️
Becky Rose I always loved and wanted curved nails
@@tomarasmith4459 It's so hard to find a nail tech who even knows how to do them. :( That's a shame because I know quite a few women who like the sophisticated look of curved nails.
Omg same!! 😭 I wish someone knew how to do them
K, why the passive aggressive shrug emoji, they literally said theres nothing wrong with them, just thats not the preferred style for them and at the time
@@ninjanippledog725 It wasn't a passive-aggressive shrug, but thanks for stopping by.
I was watching this really late, and I got sleepy because your voices are so soft and calming. 😂
