Wow!! This play list is exactly what I needed! Iâm a DIYer. My mom was a pro. She taught me initially so I could help her do her hair & nails. I have always done my own nails. Used acrylic for years.
But my business has me so busy that builder gel actually fits my life better.
Learning LOTS! Thank You
Youâre the best Liz. I mean really, youâre a cut above in every way. Classy and talented. This was great. Thanks for sharing and teaching all of us.
I really appreciate your videos, they've helped me a lot to do my own nails and as a beginner providing me with good techniques. Thank you. :)
Today's video is more of a "watch me work" CZcams and chill video where you can watch everything from start-to-finish for the gel overlay tutorials. I've added music to this video so if you're not into it please feel free to mute. :) All products used are listed below the video. And don't forget to watch the "prerequisite" vids for this! Catch up from the beginning here: bit.ly/TNHNailFun
Should your description say that you WILL be able to gel overlays? Its says NOT.
@@Danellr007 I caught that, too!
Fixed! Thanks!!! đđ
Thank you for this absolutely fantastic video! Really enjoyed it and looking forward to the next one...
Kindest regards
Rita G
It would really help if you told or showed us what speeds you are using the efile at for each procedure! I usually just use it at the lowest most effective setting but I can always learn more! Thanks for sharing!
Iâm a beginner in nails and Iâm loving your videos and education on nail prep. Looking forward to seeing more videos and the education
@TheNailHub what is this gorgeous color please? The gray lilac shade is amazing.
And also the glitter on the fill overlay?
Wow...đź
Because of your amazing prep work, the nails after 2 weeks still look like they've just been completed.
Your videos are so relaxing. Every time I watch them I canât wait to do the steps with each client. Thank you so much.
I love all your videos and I love this video with the music. But I love listening to your voice when youâre giving direction. Thank you again for another informative video. I look forward to your new videos every week. Your instruction has really help me improve application and also what is most important... nail prep!! Thank you again.
Yeah, I also prefer when the video has her voice explaing the process. But all her videos are wonderful, none the less â€ïž
Was just thinking when I would see your next video so happy its today can't wait to see what we learn this time thanks Liz!
Beautiful color, love the overlay !!
Tysm for taking the time to teach us.đđ
I get so excited for your new videos, Liz!đ€đ€ Thank you for all the time and energy you share đđ€
This video is sooo satisfying. Love it!!
Great video, and beautiful nail work! Thank you!!
I LOVE YOUR FULL A TO Z VIDEOS ! GREAT INFORMATION / KNOWLEDGE ! I HIGHLY APPRECIATE YOU FOR IT AND GOD BLESS YOU !!!!
Your work is amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Great video and I enjoyed the music. I'll have to watch the whole thing without skipping when I have more time. I'm in the process of moving and for the time being, I'm staying with friends and family. I can't wait to get moved.
Love to watch you work. đ
I enjoyed watching the video, great job đđ
Wow!!! Your work is amazing!!
Beautiful job!
I watch Suzieâs nail videos too and the second her intro song came up i had to make sure I was still on your channel đ
Loving the whole series, it has help me a lot. During Nail School the main focus was acrylic besides regular manicures. I have chosen Gel as my specialty I finished Nail School in November and I must say your videos are the continuous education I can afford at the moment. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
I do have one question; how high are the prep bit and removal bit going? What's the appropriate speed?
Great video as always, Liz! :)
Hey Sarah God bless you I appreciate you opening up because Lord knows I needed to hear that I'm not alone in my feelings from another Christian sister. I hope 28 is everything you want it to be according to God's will đđż
Wow, that was a great video!
Great video. Thank you.
Thorough work! đđŒđđŒđ đ
All these videos have been very helpful however are you able to do another backfill one with nails that have been significantly grown out? And then polish a solid color rather than a glitter. I feel glitter is an easier product to apply than a solid color. I struggle from time to time with clients who have a longer grow out and reapplying a solid color than glitter. How do you go about trying to rebalancing that?
It's the same process but I will def show more soon. I also have a video on that here (after 5 weeks): czcams.com/video/SrjP8gzXYBw/video.html
@Caren Navarro 34.20, but this video does show nails with a solid colour albeit not a video of a significant growth but all one colour (greyish/purple)
@The Nail Hub very nice work !
Thank you so much for your tutorials, I have learnt so much. I am a DIYR and also do my friends nails. She has very weak nails and also some ski jumps. I am trialling IBX on her. Would love to see a tutorial using Japanese potted gels and how to sculpt short ski jump nails. đ
Thank you đ
Love your videos we did not get this in class when I went school for nails. So helpful âșïžđ. Would like to know what drill bits you use in this video?
Awesome video! Could you tell us which speeds you were using with the different bits? Thanks!
Excellent
Good work
Thank u so much for this vidio
Awesome
Hey, quick question. I ordered the Kokoist Platinum Bond Duo in a pot and am in love with the consistency but am having trouble with it yellowing the instant I stick it in my lamp. Any idea what could be causing that? Thanks so much for your videos, Iâve learned a crazy amount from you!
Hello from Greece Liz .
Exiting to see always your videos . Thank you so much for your help. Two question please. How much more should we charge the overlay and filling ?
And should we charge extra the removal of the long lasting colour gel ?
Thanks in advance
đđčđ
Hi Liz, love your videos! Iâm not a professional Iâm just trying to do my own nails and my daughters. Iâm struggling to find products like yours in the uk. Especially the dry skin tear drop drill bit. I looked into ordering but international postage is expensive do you know of uk stockist for your products or similar? Big UK fan x
Hi Liz ! would you please telling me the number of your cuticule bit , I canât find it on amazon , the first one you showed !
Hello! Can I use an ordinary basecoat instead of the basebonder? Thanks!
Yes
Hi Liz, LOVED your video. Quick question for you please, I noticed you didn't really do the floating technique when you applied the overlay. Is that a necessary technique? Or because you were doing a natural look you can brush down rather than float? Thanks in advance!
Do you cap the free edge with the overlay? And is it only one layer that you've done with the overlay?
Hi
What kind of small brush when you apply base coat and overlay, even color gel,
Seems like very narrow size.
Hi Liz! You are the best! Thank you for doing all these videos, Iâm loving it. I just canât seem to find the IBX video you refer to, was it removed?! Just donât want to miss anything. Watching your 78 video Gel Fundamentals play list!
Oh no! I will have to dig into that. This is an older video so our link might be broken.
great camera work and detail shown but i much prefer when you do a voice over rather than the music.
I already did the individual videos with voice. This is just a recap of everything together.
@@TheNailHub I understand why you chose to put music in the video and I assume it is less of a hassle for you. And it is really nice to see everything "put together" in one video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and devoting so much time to teaching us!
I have to admit it is such a weird thing to not hear your voice though. I too enjoy it more when I hear you talk during a video.
For me, hearing random music (or watching a muted video) is just not as immersive than hearing the sounds of filing or short comments like "remember to cap the free edge of the nail". It does not mean that you need to repeat everything that you already said in your other instructional videos. You could briefly remark on what you are going to do next and the occasional "remember to do this" and then we could watch you perform this step on all fingers in silence until your next step.
You could also use the time to talk to us about something that is on your mind, maybe a topic to start a discussion about, or tell us a nail-related story, something like that could also be pretty neat :)
These are just a few suggestions. In the end, what you do in your videos needs to feel right to you!
Iâll second that too !
Hi Liz, did you find you got a touch of shrinkage on the free edge after your first application?
I think this was the perfect time for you to do a watch me work video. With all you've been teaching us over the past several months it was great to see it all come to fruition. As I was watching you I could hear you explaining the different processes of prepping and finishing the nails.
I have a question about luxio gel. I recently started using it and fot some reason the gel on the thumbs wrinkles. Any idea as to this is happening? Thanks for sharing your brilliance. đ
Hi so glad you are liking the series. Sounds like the Luxio isn't curing. What lamp do you use? Luxio needs a very high power lamp since it is 100% gel and is very pigmented.
@@TheNailHub i'm using the SUN5 48 watt lamp. It cures fine on my other nails and I actually used Flirt last night and there was no wrinkling on any nail. Maybe I had just applied it too thick? I'll give that colour another try and see if it happens again. Thanks đ
Love your videosđ I was wondering if someone came in with chunks of an overlay still on parts of their nails, maybe with areas lifting, would you use an e file to get back to the natural nail and start over or would you try to smooth it out as best as possible and apply the base coat over it? Thanks.
I usually just remove all the lifted areas and keep what's still attached, unless it's really really worn out or is from another salon (different product was used). Watch this video and you'll see what I do on 5 week old nails. czcams.com/video/SrjP8gzXYBw/video.html
Iâm a licensed nail tech in Arizona. Is there anywhere I can take classes to learn this method of efile manicure prior to product application? Iâve been away from nails for some years and now everything is so different. I need some catching up!
Hey, how do you remove this? By soaking or filing?
I love the in depth long videos there awesome!!!!
Q: on the filing/prep you did a back and forth motion on the free edge...Iâve watched in other videos by pros (like you)and they say itâs not good for the nail to go back and forth on the free edge and to file in one direction.
(Actual Q) what is your take on that info. I just want to make sure Iâm doing it correctly.
Is that a preference thing or? đ€·đŸââïž thank you again for your great videos
Same question re: the back-and-forth. It seems like it's not recommended, but even the best nail techs file that way. I'd love to know also!
hey liz, is there a reason you do 3 fingers and then switch to the other hand?
How long do your sets usually take in real time to do a full set from prep to finish ?
What do you use for your camera setup for your videos?
What e file do you use or recommend? Thank you.
Brilliant Artistâ
Thank you for share your knowledge. I prefer listen your voice.
what camera do you use ?
Is gel out of a tube what you are taking about when you say hard gel, because that seems to be the easiest for me to work with so far.
Thankyouđ·đ·đ·đ. It's good to see your techniques. I'm firstly an acrylic tech and recently introduced builder gel. I can see I've been using too much product for this length nail!!!
As i like to use alot of my raw glitters rather than a glitter gel i wondered if i should keep encapsulating my glitters as i have been and finish filing on the clear encapsulated layer where i created the structure(?) I noticed you did the structure 1st, then 2 layers of glitter gel over your structure, buffed lightly on the last glitter layer then topcoated? Is that correct?âââđ
Here's a good video on how to use dry glitter. You can do this with builder gel or any type of clear gel. czcams.com/video/JOG5cd3Gi2Y/video.html
@@TheNailHub Thankyouđ
Do you add all base, top cost and color gels with this type of brush. The brushes that come with regular gels are so bulky
You definitely can and when I don't like a particular brush I use my own.
what brush are u using
What is IBX treatment
Can I ask, do you do an IBX, treatment before the application of acrylic, and is it an ok to do a foot/hand soak and full pedicure/manicure. Thank you in advance đ
Yes I do it before everything. Keeps the nails healthy
The Nail Hub thank you so much for your quick response â€ïž
Yayyy, I've been waiting for a new video! :D The only step I don't fully get is
1) Why file after the clear overlay layer? The nails seem perfectly smooth and perfect as they are ..
2) And also - when backfilling - if I use a simple gel polish that's not as thick as the one Liz uses the second time - do I repeat the process of putting the clear overlay on before the color like the first time around or do I just go right in with the polish?
I showed this so people can see you can finish file to overlay to ensure it is smooth. With practice and a good gel you can eliminate this step but finish filing is an important skill. And yes backfill the overlay before color. You can even use your base for this purpose. Just apply it thicker so it is flush and gives you a good cushion between the color and the nail.
@@TheNailHub THANK YOU! I really appreciate you answering my questions!
For a beginner using gel in a pot, which type of brush do you recommend, square or oval??
Please watch my previous videos that I linked. I go over this in great detail.
@@TheNailHub Thank you, I must have missed that video!!
is the bit used at 6:38 the same as the Cuticle & Sidewall Nail Bit on the website? it doesnt match the photo there.
Yes its exactly the same one.
With the polishing bit what speed are you using that on with the MT-20?
About 7,000 RPMs
you can score a file with a cuticle pusher?
Yes with the textured metal handle. Works great.
Love your videos. What would you charge for this service?
Love them, how long do you take for this set?đđđ
Takes about 50-60;minutes for each service (application & backfill). I try to keep all my services at an hour or under. Keeps clients happy and keeps me efficient.
Good jobđ, love the dedication that you put into your workđȘ
Did you ever have problems with the Kokoist platinum bond and builder? I was so excited to try them, but they peeled right off me despite my prep work.
No they last forever when I've used them. What cleanser do you use? Did you watch all my previous videos? Most likely it's something that you cleaned or prepped with our it could also be the lamp you use.
@@TheNailHub I do watch all your videos, they are amazing! I prepped with cuticle bits from ericas, the light elegance cleanser and a uv/led lamp from Amazon, so it might be the lamp. I've been meaning to bite the bullet and order a better one. Anyway, thank you so much for answering and thank you for putting up these videos!
Hi Ashley the Kokoist Infinity lamp is great and well priced. And if you're looking for even less expensive than that our Pro Nail lamp is really affordable and works with everything we sell plus everything I've stuck in it.
Does she wrap the free edge?
Yes I do.
On the 2 week back fill did you apply anything to the natural nail? Prep or just base coat to the whole nail. Did you use bonder near the cuticle on the natural nail? Sorry If Iâm confusing.â€ïž
Just prep the nail like I did the first time around, then base coat. I don't use primers or bonders. If the nail is clean and dry and properly prepared you shouldn't need a bunch of preparatory products. Watch my early videos on prep and base coat in this series if you haven't already. It will help a lot.
The Nail Hub thank you, I donât but thought oh crap am I missing a step on my fills.đ
I have a question... perhaps you've answered this in one of your other videos that I've yet to watch. But why don't you use any sort of cuticle softener prior to pushing them back? It seems like it would be painful. Thanks!
Cuticle softener adds oils and other residues to the nail. Theres very few of them that dont cause potential lifting issues with gel. Most of them are also acid based (gentle acids like fruit based ones) which means they have to be completely rinsed off in water. Water and gel do not do well together and avoiding moisture of any kind prior to application really helps to avoid lifting. I much prefer doing dry manicures. But if you want to use cuticle remover try Blue Cross. It is great and can be removed completely (with a towel or wipes and some alcohol) without a full water soak.
The Nail Hub thank you for your very informative response! :)
Nice video in many ways, the music about drove me batty though. I was trying to practice and it really got to me. I know you can't please everyone but yikes! Hard for me to concentrate! But thank you for the explainations.
Whatâs overlay technique ?? Can someone explain please
The stuff she uses is a secret?
I personally like the music and the voice over. If people watched the videos from the start they would know what she is doing and she wouldnât have to speak during it.
First! Haha
Itâs not CZcams or what? I click the other video that is the beginning and it asks me to log in. Weird. Ok bye
Il y a une chose que je ne comprends pas : on entend partout quâil ne faut pas faire dâallers retours avec la lime sur ongles naturels. Pourtant câest clairement ce qui sâest passĂ© au dĂ©but de la vidĂ©o đ
Cela dĂ©pend du grain que vous utilisez et aussi, puisque j'applique du gel sur l'ongle, cela n'a pas d'importance. S'il s'agissait d'une manucure naturelle pour les ongles, cela ferait peut-ĂȘtre davantage une diffĂ©rence. Ceci est une traduction google. :)
Anyone can buy a drill bit only a professional can buy the glitter gel? lol ok
This is mandated by the manufacturers. Some are "pro-only" and some aren't. But we've got done new amazing gel coming that anyone can buy! Coming soon...
Voice over please for this kind of videos
Love your videos. But what's with the music. Leave it quiet, like vids used to be. If we want music we can turn it on or off. Thanks! And thanks for your wonderful videos. You are my fave!
Very skilled mail tech from what i saw, I had to click away unfortunately, the music drove me bonkers :-/ Sorry!
Watch the videos before this. This one is only just a view of everything together.
I absolutely hate it when you play music. I want instructions.
Please watch the previous videos leading up to this. This is just a recap of all the steps together in one video.
Your not showing step by step what your using ...
Because I already covered that in the previous videos. Please watch those first. This is just putting it all together in order from start to finish.
If I may suggest a voice over. And this video is too long
I know this is an old comment, but I just wanted to explain that some people, including myself, learn more visually. This video to me is far more helpful than someone giving me written or spoken instructions.
I saw it as more of background/ASMR/chill 'watch me work' rather than one of her instructional videos. Kinda liked it as is.
