I love how Susie addresses all of the ?’s with grace and kindness. She instantly diffused any hate. This is a very handy video for any of us who love a clean look underneath our enhancements.
I love how you approached these comments. It makes me appreciate your skill and kind nature so much. 💛💛
Suzie I just really want to thank you for all your content. You have been the best teacher I’ve ever had. You never gatekeep you just want to help us nail techs (nail enthusiasts etc) become better and that truly means the world. Thank you for sharing your plethora of knowledge in easy to follow steps. I couldn’t imagine where I’d be in my journey if it wasn’t for you!!!
Wow, thank you! I’m so thankful when people ( you ) get it ❤️
I've been doing nails for over 30 years and also enjoy watching Miss Suzie. She does nails almost exactly the same way I do so I have the students I teach watch her for another person and explanation.
I feel the same way!!! Suzie is my go-to trusted professional
I used to be fascinated with different methods of cleaning so I can tell you this: you can use soap, oil or toothpaste to clean the nails, and each will clean them in a slightly different way.
Soap uses surfactants, so it will break apart the bonds in any oils under the nail and help remove it; oil will mix with the oils already present under the nail and help gently lift the residues (think how an oil cleanser breaks up makeup); and toothpaste contains abrasives so it will help to literally scrub away the dirt bit by bit.
Oil will be the most gentle, soap will be great for dirt and grime and toothpaste will remove staining most effectively. Pick and choose!
Great Tips
Knowing that you have been teaching for years shows that you know what to correctly do. Plus as one lady said you answered with class.
Thank You for doing this Video, a few of our newer clientele don't understand that this van be done without hurting them and no bleeding either! They have never had their nails done without pain and bleeding. We taught them that getting your nails done is supposed to be a painless Fun experience. My clients never feel pain or see blood. Again Thank You for All you do! From Shannon in Idaho USA
that is amazing Shannon! it is sad that so many have bad experiences, thank you for taking care of your clients and making sure their experience is great!
Can you please do some more videos on applying acrylic close to the cuticle without flooding it? 🙏 Thanks to you I’ve gotten SO much better with applying acrylic,
but I still struggle with my cuticle flooding a bit and lifting.
A hack for those plastic nail brushes you use to scrub underneath your nails, if the underside of your nails are really stubborn, trimming the plastic bristles with like an old cuticle nipper and making them like 1/8 of an inch long makes the bristles less flexible (because they’re shorter) and therefore stiffer! Sometimes, I feel like those brushes are too soft and I can’t really scrub underneath the nail as good as I would like to and trimming the brushes works really well for me!❤
Oooh that's a gd tip, I've had that problem thanks
This is why I use a toothbrush lol
@@weekendnomad5038
That’s smart! I never thought to use a toothbrush
Yes, I have a specific medium toothbrush just for my nails!
Loved the video. You explain things so thoroughly. Keep up the good work. I’m 78 and use the e-file. I’m very careful. Never to old to learn new things.
We are so lucky to have Suzie! Such an excellent communicator. Thank you so much for your videos!! 💜
You handled those comments no less than I would expect from you.
Most Professionally! And a learning experience; you Taught us the truth
I can’t believe the comments some people left! People are crazy and you addressed them with class as always! I always do this for my clients with every fill!
I was so excited to see a video this morning. Hope camera man is doing well. Thanks for sharing this video. I did that a lot in all the years I did nails. And my clients loved it. People who are not techs don’t understand it. So glad you addressed it.
No they don’t understand - and this happens to EVERYONE -
Ya we shot this before his surgery so we didn’t address any issues of his accident - but we will be shooting soon
I like to dip a cotton bud in acetone or rubbing alcohol and use it to clean the nail underneath. I do it once or twice a week. I find it very effective. It cleans the nails and also disinfects them. I also apply oil after doing this process to rehydrate the nails.
I keep a toothbrush by the sink and use it to scrub under my nails at every hand wash . Then I use a q tip once a day with alcohol to clean under the nails :)
The main reason I don’t like long nails because I always end up cleaning obsessively under them. Like every hour with a nail brush
girl saaaame i need to feel that they're clean at all times
I use hydrogen peroxide and a dental scraper. Not the sharp pointy one! I do overlays so the staining drives me crazy too 😊
Same 😭
Wow, you ladies are obsessive! 😄 I clean under my nails with my other nails every time I wash my hands, which is quite often. I have natural nails.
I have long nails on my left (non dominant) hand and short nails on my right (dominant) hand because I can not FOR THE LIFE OF ME stop the nails on my right hand from breaking!!!!! But my nails on my left hand are always really clean underneath and really easy to clean but the nails on my right hand need a really thorough scrubbing and get dirty so easily. So yeah for me, short nails get more dirty and I think it’s because it’s drier underneath lol
I'm not a professionally trained nail tech, manicure is my hobby and every time I get a new bit I always tested on my self first. First thing I check - can I cut my self. Then I do a dry cleanup on 2,3 nails and check on those nails in the following week. Keep in mind I do no more than 3 sets in a week, so i have the time to try, test and experiment
I can honestly say that I have NEVER had a technician put oil on my natural nails underneath, although it makes perfect sense when you explained it. Thank you, Suzie! I will start doing this for myself instead of just the cuticle area.
I luckily have had techs who would put a drop of oil on the cuticle and massage that in, and then massage it under my nails - but not all of them! It really makes a difference
I’m soooo glad someone is doing a video on this! I do lots of diy & jewelry creating & need my bare hands for these projects. That leads to a lot of stains! I absolutely hate the under nail stains 🫣
I have hard gel extensions and don't remove, only fill ins. My nail tech does this technique to remove the natural nail growth from underneath! Love it, keeps everything looking clean
It's lovely how you have approached the comments - most people would be a lot less grown up and respectful. Bravo
This is exactly why after years of doing enhancements. I completely stopped all. Because I my hands were always in moisture. I am a retired florist. The upkeep was so time consuming and expensive!!! I would have to go every week just to maintain. Then I learned to do myself thanks to Suzie and Liz. Again I was constantly maintaining. I can't stand dirty nails !!! I'm a farmer now and definitely no way to keep enhancements clean now. So I have natural strong nails since I stopped everything except basic cleaning and moisturizer.
Love filing off that ledge and the crud under there. So clean and smooth!
My nail tech recommended a nail brush and hand soap for daily upkeep. My nails have never been badly stained and they look clean all the time which is really good
I just watch these videos to chill out before bedtime. Works every time.
Suzie you’re the professional, you shouldn’t even stress on 2 ppls judgments. Millions of us are here to learn and see what’s new. We Love it! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
Well, if two people are thinking of it. Several people might be thinking of it, so I thought it’s fair that we address it because it is a
Reasonable thought.
This has been part of my service with every client, they love the fact that I clean underneath. They have never had it done until they came to me. There nails don't lift nor peal.
Thank you for sharing this important step.
I find that when my hyponychium is more dry and gets kinda flakey, it gets stained more easily and stuff gets caught there more easily and is harder to remove, even when I scrub throughly with a brush. When it’s moisturized and healthy, it doesn’t really stain and is much easier to clean!
I do my nails at home and lately, I’ve been exclusively doing hard gel overlays for the past 6 months to 1 year and have been growing out my natural nails and have found that they seem to stain less and stuff does not get caught underneath as easily as with any other nail enhancements!
My personal theory is that when my natural nails are longer, when I use nail oil, it absorbs better and helps keep the hyponychium nice and moisturized. I think it’s since my natural nails are longer, there’s more nail to absorb the nail oil and it keeps the hyponychium moisturized for longer while the length helps keep it protected from the elements and just drying out in general!
I can’t keep any nail enhancement on my dominant hand unfortunately cause they always fall off and my natural nails keep breaking on that hand so the nails are really short and even though, I apply nail oil and moisturize both hands equally, the short nails on my dominant hand are always more dry and the underside always stains and gets stuff caught under there so easily😢 I have no idea why I can’t keep any product on my dominant hand because I’ve tried every type of nail enhancement but nothing works. I can keep nail enhancements on my non dominant hand for 4-6 WEEKS with ZERO LIFTING and I am able to do this consistently and have even gone 8+ weeks when I’ve been too busy with very very minimal lifting but for my dominant hand, they start to lift after only a few days 😭
Thank you so much for this observation, this groups to understand the science behind nail work so much more ❤
Such a needed video!! I was always surprised nail techs online didn't talk about it at all.
when I started doing it I felt I was doing something bad to the nail, but its totally fine - if you do it right. Thanks Suzie!
As my nails grew, out I began adding acrylic underneath. I use a bit whiter fill. I only do my own nails and I’ve been cleaning them precisely the way you explained!
I have a soft bristle toothbrush intended only to brush underneath my extensions with just soap and water. Then I use micro cue tip with sanitizer to sterilize it. And literally five min later I'm digging in my flowerpots and doing finger painting with my son 😅
Thank you so much for this video! I left a comment about this topic on another video, and your reply really helped me to solve it. I'm glad to see this video reaffirming and demonstrating those steps. Your insights are greatly appreciated!
So glad you’re back! ❤
Suzie I love your videos and I always look forward to your professional insights and expertise when it comes to nail education!
I have always wondered this and I’m glad you made an in-depth video about this.
This is my favorite thing to do. Feels so clean after I’ve filed and it looks so cool while I’m doing it.
Suzie,I always enjoy your videos. You are so passionate and kind in the way you explain everything. Amazing nails, always. Thankyou.
Great directions and tips! Thank you so much 💛
Hiii Susie 😊 I'm a manicurist from way back in the day as well. And yes, we didn't have the same kind of drill bits back then. I used the smallest barrel. I also would add a small drop of 5 second glue. I knew there wasn't any moisture in there. It worked every time. Also, my clients who had been to other manicurist who didn't clean under the nail or clean the cuticle would complain about them. I attracted many clients from my clean, careful, natural looking nails and the care I took and showed them. And that worked everytime as well ~
Amazing how far this industry has progressed, especially the gel products and lamps. Thoroughly enjoy your videos. Everything you share is 💯🌿
I bought my own e file and have been doing this for over a year now it works great when done right. I also love using a tooth brush it just gets in there better ❤
Thank Susie for this video I learned something that I didn’t know… Thank you for sharing!
Im not a nail tech but everything i know, ive learned from you Suzie! I do my own nails (gel extenstions) and everytime i do my nails, my dad tells me i should go to school for it. I told him that wasnt a program anymore here in ontario anyways but he always encourages me to start doing other peopls nails. Suzie, youre the best teacher!
A like to do this even after applying a fresh set. Especially for pickers. That ledge can be too tempting and lead to cracked nails that can lead to fungus or even damaging the nail bed.
I find I'm ALWAYS going for that underside edge! That's why I've been religiously filing the underside when I'm doing my own hands
O want you to know that your content has helped me grow my natural nails and protect them with “enhancements”. I live in a homestead so getting my nails done with poly gel and forms was mot in my radar until I got tired of them breaking painfully all the time. I’ve been doing my own enhancements for 8 weeks and my natural nails are now the length, short, of my enhancements. And none have broken or come off in the 3 weeks I give each set.
Thank you very much for all you do for us.
This little bit is the best! I watch some people with extensions, and they flip their hand over and WOW clean that out! It would look so much better but, I use it on myself! Thank you, Suzie!
Thank you queeeennnnnn your videos are as informative and entertaining as ever
I’ve missed your teaching videos glad your back😊😊😊😊😊
Been doing this ever since the short and it's soo satisfying
I do however file away my natural nail as I find that prevents lifting for me 💅
I am starting to do my own nails. When I use to go to the salon, my tech would clean up underneath my nails.
This is one of my favorite parts of getting a manicure or doing my manicure. I always try to get under there with a nail brush too.
Wow, I just learn so much from you !! I mean every video you’re dropping “nail knowledge” speaking to me a bff/cool mom 😂😂. But really , I just love the way you explain the videos and you make it very understandable. I’d love a video every day from you ! I just learn so much . My apologies , I know not a video every day. I know you have to rest ! Thank you Susie !
Awwww how sweet are you!!!!
We’d love to everyday but it’s just me and cameraman - but we do have some exciting new things coming
Turmeric real stains, natural nail or matte gel topcoat especially!
It always felt so good to get mine done. Dawn Powerwash cleans really well on so many things. I would bet it would work on theses too.
I love cleaning under my nails, I do it all the time..Just feels clean and looks heaps better..
Nice thanks for sharing. ❤
I am a hairdresser an nailtech.
I wear nails since thirty years.
Always struggle with hair color on my natural nail growths.
So I used to have every 4 weeks a new nail set. I don't like gloves...but suzie ,that's a good idea.
Best wishes from Germany, ❤
I learn so much from you thanks 😊
Glad to see that you and your husband are back. Missed you both. Cameraman, I'm glad you're feeling better and are able to film again. Can't wait to see the next video. Love you both!! My son is into photography right now as a hobby and is enjoying it. ❤❤
And somewhere out there, in Ottawa, Cristine is gasping and cringing at the idea of using toothpaste on your nails to whiten them since she said in one of her videos years ago that bleaching and whitening your natural nails can be damaging. 😅😅
I honestly love the realness of this video. I don't have this problem, as i use a nail brush and use press on's that i switch out every week... but i wish some people could see this, some nails underneath, looks unpleasant.
I don't seem to have this issue much, but my nails are thin to start with so when they grow out a couple of weeks I find the product has adhered and covered the tip. I keep them short and extend them, and change the nails after a month. When I do I clip them right down to nothing again. That said, top coat under my nails does help, and for everything else there is a nail brush. I keep one in the kitchen for after cooking and one in my bathroom. I use it every other day at least and don't seem to have a lot of issue. I don't garden or do crafts with powders, though - powder gets under there like crazy!
Hi Suzie, great video. I have psoriasis, and my tumb nails have it. The nails are very ruff in the back. I have to soft them with the e- file sometimes, brush them all the time with soap and a small nail brush. Then apply oil to keep them moisturized many times a day.I keep my natural nails long incased with acrylic. We have to pay attention to the back of our hand nails more often.
You can use a hand or body lotion with urea in it, Eucerin has a great one!
Great tute. Thanks,
Thank you for showing this! The dirty ledge under my nails was a pet peeve of mine and I would just cut the fake nails short to get rid of it or soak them off. Totally trying this slowly but surely for my next set.
i love your videos ,ive learned a lot . i can sit and watch them all day.
I've never thought of using toothpaste as a cleaning tool to whiten the nails! Thank you Suzie!
I frequently scrub under my nails with a stiff brush. And if they are stained I'll touch up the surface with a skinny diamond bit. I recently bought your trimmer bit that you used for this purpose.
Great video, just two asides, as nails grow out the hyponychiums grow, and if you let them they can grow to the full length of the nail! Gently push them back from time to time with a cuticle pusher or something so they don’t do that. Most people are active enough that just the daily use of hands and nails pushes them back. But if you have a client who’s has grown out a bit it may take a few times to get those things under control, if you push too much it starts to get tender so it may take a few visits to get them under control. You definitely don’t want them to grow out that much, it will cause problems. I’ve seen nail techs use the e-file to do this, it doesn’t hurt and works great if not done too aggressively. Also, in nail school they told us to use 20 volume and a que tip or a brush to bleach under nails, if bleaching is necessary. It works great if you have discoloration. Don’t leave it on too long, better to do it twice, than overbleach (Ps, don’t get it on the skin you will dry out your customers skin, little white dry patches, just apply on the underside of the nail)
The natural nail is more porous than the enhancement. I do this all the time. My mom is an avid gardener, so her hyponychium gets pretty stained. I use my cuticle bit to clean them. And then top coat to help reduce the staining
I have to agree with/Suzie about the nail polish 💅 under the nail & the toothpicks. I’ve definitely tried both , thinking it would take care of this “dirty” issue . To no avail. 😢
I’m looking forward to trying the methods Suzie showed us here. Thank you again!
Peace , love & clean nails wishes for all ! 🥰💅😉
I’ve used a nail brush that is angled to get under the nails, and that has helped remove the guck.
Great video ❤❤❤
ty for this video, I found it vry helpful ❤ also the way you handled the hate comments was done in such a professional manner and class. I'm trying this nxt time when my under nail get dirty, ty Susie 🥰
im just starting my nail journey and you have the most lovely voice and attitude! such a great resource channel :}
9:39 Susie war flashbacks 😂😂😂 thank you sooooooo much for this video. I think my personal problem with this is I might need a better bit because I always get grooves when I try this!
I do this on myself and check all my clients, and do it if necessary!
Tip: Keep a portable/travel toothbrush in your bag for when you’re out and about to clean your nails. Just make sure to tap the excess water out really well before folding it back up.
I have 2 nails that the underneath cuticle grows out like your index finger. Those 2 nails are also thinner than the others & they're always tender. I carefully push it back & its difficult to not break the skin.
Thanks for this video with all the info!!
I just use a nail brush every single time i was my hands. I can't stand the thought of junk or germs under my nails. I'd go nuts! 😂
I also use toothbrush and toothpaste to clean my nails and then I follow with a nail brush, soap and water. 😊
I've watched you for YEARS!!!! and I had no idea you were in Victoria. I realized the other day and I kid you not, I was THRILLED!!! I hope to meet you one day on the street just to say hi. I've lurked and watched your videos since I was a kid. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I remember back in the day before nail techs had these drill bits they would use the sanding band under my nails. That always felt great too unless they held it too long and burned me or cut me.
I love filing under the nail for two reasons, one, I can’t stand that little ledge as they grow out. And two, I hate seeing my natural nail. So I just completely file away the free edge as it grows.
Also, I keep a toothbrush by every sink so I can scrub underneath as needed. 😁
I don't have nails and probably never will, but I've been a sub for years and just love your content. ❤
Your amazing love from Tee from UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
How do you tell the experienced nail tech how to do their job? 😂😂 You handled this so lovely. God bless.
Make up and hand lotion are my biggest stainers...thank you for a great demo❤
Ooooh YES! Yr so right / I didn’t mention that and I shoulda
Some of my nails have long hyponychium. I do my own nails and when I do a fill, I either clean the natural nail or remove it with an e-file. I’ve had no issues whatsoever. I feel like a lot of comments were made by people do t actually do nails or are just learning about them. I think it’s simple, some who’s been doings fit over 30 years would obviously have skills and confidence to go this vs someone just learning obviously wouldn’t have the skills needed to file underneath. Even before I started doing my own nails; the nail techs I’ve gone too also filed underneath when doing fills.
Yes respect the hyponychium
And it’s all good
I clean up my under nails the same way 🙌🏻
Hey Suzie. I get this so much left hand is always worse as I am a lefty! Worse when I colour my hair! Hope cameraman all mended, heard his voice bless him. Take care xx
Maybe a Qutip with some alcohol?/ I’m so glad to see you and Cameraman back online. I hope he is recovering well.❤️🩹
Now I can tell my hubby I have a legit reason to get my e-file 😋
I love when negative comments are called out ❤ spread some love 💕 geez
Concerns are valid, the problem is often how they are expressed.
I build a habit of having a short-tough-bristled brush next to my kitchen and bathroom sink. I use it whenever I need it, so stuff don't dry in there under the nail.
Also - the kids like using it when they have very dirty hands, so its also a good habit to have, I think.
I keep an old toothbrush by the sink that I use to scrub my nails every hand wash lol
I’ve been following you for so long,I’ve been a fan for years. I watch everything you post. However, this video is just shedding light on so many uneducated people makes me feel they should all be going to nail school. Or complete some type of formal training. Even the terminology we use (cosmo grad here) they aren’t familiar with and they’re so confused I can see from the comments. You’re doing a great job educating them ! But they need school, or SOMETHING hands on ❤️
great thumbnail lol ❤
Pun intended?
If you have concerns about staining and debris, then wearing gloves while cooking is an absolute win. However, when your nail tips are as sharp as Susie’s, gloves will just rip through. The best way to clean under your enhancements is a good nail brush. If stains are resistant, then use a Q-Tip dipped in hydrogen peroxide to clean out the stains, then immediately wash and scrub the nails. It may seem tedious to touch something, then immediately wash your hands, but if you want clean nails you will do it regardless. I don’t use nail forms often but I have near had this issue as I wash my hands and scrub under my nails more than 6 times a day 😂 I always apply cuticle oil to the underside of my nails. Cuticle oil will help keep the excess hyponychium to a minimum as well 😉
I often wear long stilettos, almonds, and lipstick nails and I find wearing oversized gloves (xl for my hands) and that eliminates the gloves ripping!
I thought about you yesterday when I was at my nail salon in Maine, US. I remember watching your video about the greenies. Last time I went, my thumb nail was starting it, he filled it as usual. Yesterday, I warned her, (a different person) that my nail was getting really funky. She said that we should remove all of them and start over. My right nail doesn’t grow straight it kinda grows down, tending to separate. Do you think removing the ledge from my nail like in this video might help? Had I not seen your video about the greenies, I would have freaked out and probably never get my nails done again. I’m not a nail tech but I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank you! 💕
Thank you for the informative video. I hope camera man is feeling better
People love to assume no judgement unless you know or the full story. Susie you are a great nail tech.
This is partly why i prefer to overlay products on my natural nails, then there's no ledge between enhancements and natural nail. It makes it much easier to keep under the nails clean
ALL or ANY building product is an overlay/ the only reason you don’t have a ledge underneath is because you’re natural Nail has grown all the way up. But you’re still gonna have the dirt no matter what you put on top and if you’re not having a ledge that’s because who’s ever applying the product is doing a very good smoothing job doesn’t matter what product they’re using.
@@NailCareerEducation @NailCareerEducation well yeah all nail product is overlaid onto natural nails, but the term overlay has become an industry term for applying product only to the natural nail rather than extending the length. When you aren’t extending the length there's really no reason for there to be product underneath the nail where it could trap dirt. The product sits on top and on the free edge while the underside remains product free and therefore cleaning is easier like it is for those without any nail enhancements
