That is the best explanation of gel application I have ever seen!!! You are a GENIUS!!! Best teacher I have ever come across!! Thank you for the nail school videos!!!
MelissaO6969 you're right I love all his video
I always struggled more with gel application- I used these techniques on a client yesterday and I felt like a BOSS! She even said "wow, that looks really hard to control that stuff. How do you do that??" Turned out great and cut WAAAAY down on application time and filing. Thanks so much! I ONLY buy your products because they're amazing and your education and support is #1
YAY!!!
Greg has that perfect teacher voice and emphasizes the keywords (float, pull, etc) just the right way to make it stick (like gel, heh). I just want the "class" to keep going!
NOT in the gel, but on top of the gel makes total sence to me. Stay on top of the gel!! Some times I get a bubble & now I know why. Because I was in it & not on top floating from side to side!! Habib & Greg are the bomb. Thank you so much. I truly appreciate the both of you!
Spot on tutorial! 😄 Floating on top and keeping contact with gel. Almost impossible to fail if you follow these simple rules. ❤️ from Sweden 🇸🇪
Amazing teacher, after 10 years finally someone who explains it like it should ! Keep it up 👌

I get so much inspiration from your videos and getting to know young nails products. I'm actually opening my own nail studio next week and I can't wait. The possibilities are endless!! Thanks again for these videos.
‘On the gel, not in it!’ Brilliant information. Many thanks.
❤️❤️
Thanks Greg! I have learned more from you in 6 min video blogs over the last few months than I ever learned while actually in nail school. You and Habib are truly inspiring keep up the great work. I just recived my gel trial kit and can't wait to take your advice and give it a shot.
Love him he’s so enthusiastic when he teaches 😍
Thank you!
YoungNailsInc aww come to England (yorkshire) and train, over here we have annual trade shows Olympia London and Professional Beauty would love to meet you guys Tracey too 😘😘😘
I'm absolutely in love with this product and company! As a veteran nail tech, I've used various acrylic/gel systems over the years and NOTHING--and I mean NOTHING--compares to the ease and versatility of the Young Nails brand! I have clients with problem nails and I've noticed a complete turnaround concerning the health of their nails.
I love that they provide additional learning and help with their products, which is so much better than most other companies that insist on giving snippets of info or none at all and then charge to teach you about their products, especially with troubleshooting. One brand in particular doesn't provide an MSDS sheet to go along with their products so you feel lost trying to figure out how to use them. I feel I've found a winner in this product!
SN: I placed and order for Build Gel as well as Mani-Q and when I received the package, the Mani-Q had spilled and a bit of the product was lost 😕 but I contacted YN and a representative contacted me and informed me they'll just send me a new one! No hassle, no fuss; needless to say, I'll be using YN until I retire, Lord willing! 😊😊😊
TY for the VERY VERY kind words! ❤️ ❤️❤️ Any issues you have, please call us, we are here for you!
Best teacher of all time, to echo another...
Greg is amazing!
I've only just started putting gel over my natural nails for strength and I weep for all the years I didn't know this stuff existed, my application is getting better but a lot of my mistake are sorted out with nail file, I love it, for the first time I can have all my nails the same length and not worry about any nail breakage.
I'm undermining. You convey all the knowledge in a great way. Everything is at the highest level. It's great that you are here. !
I've been doing nails at home for a while, only playing with my own hands and close friends/family. I decided to get into a nail tech school to get my license & buy more products that require a license to purchase, including yours. As I was touring the school, I saw YoungNails products on the desks and I was like ok YEP SIGN ME UP! Dying to try all those products out!! Love these videos 🙂
I am living for nail school! !! Perfect explanation :) You guys rock!
THANK YOU for this video! You explain things amazingly!! I do sooo much better now. I just found your channel a few weeks ago and I've been binge watching as many as possible. Lol

DO IT!!
Wow that is very educative for me I learn more with this video hobbi thanks so much xoxo 😍😍😍😍😍😍💐
Greg is a great teacher...💝💝 it
He’s the best teacher 🤩
thank you Greg I love your technique
You explain that in a way that we can understand it
YES. I've been in a salon where I can't use acrylic, so I've been using your gel for months now. It's one of my favorite products and I'm so happy to be seeing information about it. :)
Quick questions:
With the self-leveling builder, how do you keep it from flooding the side walls? I'm assuming you would work one or two nails on a hand and then cure while working on one or two nails on the opposite hand? Are there any tricks you have for when it floods and you don't catch it before curing?
And with the pink sculptor -- my current bottle seems to have a thicker consistency. Another assumption that it's older, but I was wondering is there a way to thin it out a little? I can still work with it, but it ends up lumpier than my (newer) clear sculptor comes out.
Thank you!! Love your products so much and this new series has been wonderful for me.
Nikki candle warmer works for loosening up thick hard gel just don't leave it too long
Thank you!! I'll definitely give that a try.
! Excelent as always ! I,m very clear now. Thanks
Love YN products and only use them in my salon. Please do a video on "problem nails" and gel application. Many of my clients have nails that swoop up like a ski slope and therefore a well is created at the stress area in the nail. What is the best approach to apply a gel enhancement to camouflage the "well" and create a balanced apex? Thanks!
We will address this in an upcoming video
😲 that’s awesome, I have ski nails and I have always problems with setting my nails on myself I’m so frustrated with it🤪
I’m looking forward to your next video about the ski nails.
CAN YOU GIVE ME A LINK OF THE VIDEO WERE YOU SHOWING US HOW TO DO THIS SOLUTIONS ABOUT THE SKI NAILS❓( BECAUSE I’M LOOKING THIS ON 21-4-2019 )
Thanks for all your awesome videos I learn a lot from you Greg. 👍🏻
I ❤️ to seeing all of your videos, you are a great help and a awesome teacher.
Even for me I’m learning it for myself, so I can do it at home for myself. And I loving it so much, playing with my 💅🏻.
The only problem is that I can effort to spend so much money to buy the products from your store 🙁 and I wanted to use your products so so very much. Because your products are so beautiful and I love them 😍
Although the best greetings from Holland 🇳🇱
And I hope to get the link from your video very soon 🙋🏻🙋🏻
You’re the best Greg 🙏😘
I'm break dancing on the nail! LoL So funny & informative.
Thank you! In school I am only learning acrylic application and am trying to learn gel from UA-cam. I have 2 questions, if I do get a bubble in the gel how do I get it out? I tried a pin and that didn't work, apparently it's not a cake 🙄. Second is, where can I find a list of classes you offer? We drive to Anaheim a few times a year (Happiest Place on Earth and all...) so it's absolutely doable for me I just don't know when you do them. Maybe it's in the part of the site I can't access because I don't have a license number yet? Thanks in advance! 😀
So, it is self leveling but will you still need to buff it out to make it even or smoother? FYI, getting a lot of great info from the videos!! Love it!
Very informative and helpful. Thank you for sharing!!
Do you have a video about sculpting a gel nail extension? I have been struggling with breakage on my clients. Also, if you have any tips on pinching the nail for the proper c-curve with gel it would be much appreciated!
Check out our gel nails section... and also the nail school gel vid.
Your are perfect teacher i love it
Thank you so much!
wax on wax off and paint the house, daniel son! :D, feeling nostalgic while i watch it
😁😁😁
thanks😁 floating on top,keeping contact
Question! What’s the difference between these two gels & gel base...compared to the basic gel basecoat & gel colour in a bottle?
You want to be ON IT not IN IT.... love you gents
This video is so perfect.
Do you have a video that explains the different types of gel and what theyre for? Base, cover, builder, sculpting?
I just purchased your product and I am liscensed. I wanted to know how do you do the refill when it's time?
Here's a video on the fill - ua-cam.com/video/ehYc9dNiXnE/v-deo.html
I meant a gel refill... 😅
Also could you do an explanation on what to use for the starting kit. I know theres white, base, top, and pink. But the sculpting and clear? Confused... When I want to extend the nail do I use base or sculpting? Another thing what if I wanted to use tips then apply the product (another video pls)
Ps. Y'all should have a class in Texas 🤔
YoungNailsInc 😃😃😃
Thank you!!!!!! I SUCK at applying gel my school doesn't teach it so. Thank you Greg for this awesome tutorial! Can you link your gel brushes? Thanks 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽 #teamyoungnails
Hi guys - what brush did Greg use in this video please? Looks like the Artistic Sculptor brush I bought from your site - thanks!
Can you do a multiple bead applications on the same gel application process please? he's such an amazing teacher. I swear I've watched so many vids on gel application and I have never felt like it made any sense to me till now. thanks guys. .
I'm trying to learn acrylic nails...so I'm super new to all these gel...theres so many types...how do you know which ones to use?
Tfs. A great explanation. Now if only my practice hand would stop falling off my table, I could practice these gels on it. Lol
Does it matter if you swing or do another technique? I use the technique I saw habib doing in the pro teaches beginner gel where he kind of moved front to back.
Both techniques are correct, just comes down to your preference 💕
love you guys💖💖
Love it! Thank you! ❤
( dutch ) what would you do when a client comes in whit a set and one nail is broken but she wants that nail the same length as the other ones. the other nails are longer than you normally would set on top of the broken nail,because the broken nail is short. so 9 natural nails are long whit gel on top and 1 nails is broken and short. thank you
You can extend the broken nail using a for or a tip to make it the same length as the others.
@@youngnailsinc I know but I mean would you do it because the nail is to short for the length the client wants..... The chances that it Wil break is huge.
very helpful. thank you for sharing 😊😊
you are my Guru... love you so much..
Yesssss thank you
hi Greg I'm new to you and am from the UK just wondered where I can get a good acrylic powder from that reasonable price but good quality from the UK thanks x
Which builder gel would you recommend for beginners
Is base gel and builder gel the same thing? I was just using nail polish base coat and now I'm confused.
Love you!!!
Greg is such an amazing professional. I have to have a class with him. I am not licensed but would love the opportunity to go to a class that he teaches. Please 🙏🏽?
Thank you 🙋👍👍👍
This is still my biggest hurdle
Thank you so much for the nail school videos!! Learning so much!
How do you decide to use a builder or sculpture gel?
Leann Vogt yes! that's the million dollar question I can never seem to get clarification on!!
Leann Vogt hopefully they give you the "official" answer but I find that:
Build- Thin and good for natural nail overlays, fills. If you're not quick, it can get away from you.
Concealer pink- Takes a while to level but still easy to work with- good for sculpting a longer nail, natural nail overlays, fills, sculpting the tip for an extension.
Sculptor- SUPER thick. Good for sculpting the tip for an extension. You don't want to try to build with this. Feels like building a nail with chewed gum lol.
Hope this helps. Also, you can totally email them and they'll help you. UA-cam comments might not be the best place for help. Take care!
Chandra White thank you for the help. 😊
