It was an honor to have my nails done for the first time ever by someone else and to have it be Suzie fantastic. Thank you for teaching Suzie. I got so many compliments on my nails.
This man has such a soothing demeanor. Great video and interesting topic!
Awe thanks. I think my voice is a little monotone.
As someone with crooked NAILS, this is great advice. Over the years I've learned to adjust the crooked nails and build them out to hide any unevenness. If I were to remove my manicure my nailbeds would be VERY awkwardly shaped, with some nail beds sinking farther into the finger on one side of the nail than the other, or beds flattened by excessive handwriting.
I think it would've been helpful to have a side-by-side pic of them to really compare the difference. But, very interesting 🤔 😏 I have worn my nails more square until just recently. I've decided to check out the more "almond" shape without such a pointy tip... I'm liking it so far 😊
I agree. I had to go back and forth.
I have learned so much from your videos. At first I went to get my nails done, but they always told me since I have kinda tiny hands that my nails were little and difficult to work with. If I asked for nail art, oh my!😂
in the end I decided to slowly learn to do my nails myself and being a creative, I draw a lot, I had so much fun. I do indeed have a bit of a crooked middle finger because of how long I spent using pencils, brushes etc etc. These lessons are so interesting ❤
Love from Italy 🇮🇹
I understand- my fingers are on the smaller side but look big on camera
And it’s ok when fingers become more crooked overtime it’s completely normal, I’m in the same boat
I've been told the opposite. When I used to get my nails done at the salon, my nail tech loved doing my nails bc they were 'small'. She sd they shaped easily. Now I've learned to do my own sets, mainly bc it's pricey, but also cuz I love doing nails. I kp contemplating on getting licensed, but idk ha, 😅😅! Smtimes I feel like I'm too old to go bk to school, BUT I know I know - I am not. I always hv ppl asking me to do their nails but don't bc I'm not licensed.
Suzie.... I just luv your client, he's so personable. Luv his hands, w nails even prettier. You shld have him on more often 😉😉😊😊
Ooh angel you are a celeb now 😻
What an honour to be in one of Suzie's videos and have your nails done. Super 😍
lol 😂 it was an honor for sure to get them done by her.
Wow you made them look so much more straight! I would have no idea how - just goes to show your talent Suzie 😮
I’ve been struggling for years with this problem and never been able to find a video that explains so well x
I don't get false nails because my fingers are crooked! Tysm for this video. You're a lifesaver
Sometimes we need validation that are hands are pretty Suzie has said that to me since last year. Your hands are wonderfully humanly perfect.
Wow! Thanks for posting this video, 1st one I've seen for arthritic/broken-healed hands...thanks
/Rosemary
Thank you for a great photo comparison. I have twisted fingers,and have been struggling with the enhancements looking off.
I'm 54 and I still wear square nails...for me it is easier to type 😀 I also have crooked fingers thanks to arthritis....thanks for this video!!!!
Ooh I so appreciate Susie saying she hasn’t really seen a crooked nail (as opposed to a crooked finger). I have an incredibly crooked middle nail and figuring out how to get a nail set that lasts instead of lifting on this one nail is how I got into nail diy. I haven’t found a studio that could work with me and think critically about the different structural challenges faced by this one nail.
Hmmmm I’ve never met a hand I couldn’t create a server f nails on.
Please email me at hello@nailcareer.com I’d like to help
Recall this convo so I have reference
I have the same problem, it’s my pinky…. It’s almost like one side of the nail bed grows faster then the other side…. If I’m not careful with keeping it short the mail will grow slightly sideways and run into my ring finger. 🤷🏻♀️ I’ve tried everything personally but it always seems to pop or lift.
Beautifully crooked. Perfection!
I agree, i like Susie's technique. Looks a lot smoother to me. Thanks for the helpful tip!
As the owner of a crooked finger this is so good to learn about!
Literally same!
First time I've ever seen someone do a tuto on this problem, so thank you Suzi!
I was born with twisted fingers and toes, so have crooked middle fingers where just the top digits points away from my thumb. My index fingers are also twisted at the top digit (like they've rolled over towards the middle finger) and my ring fingers have a crooked nail bed as well as being twisted in towards the middle! Little fingers are straight, but the nail grows twisted to the outer edge as it gets longer. My thumbs, not to be outdone, have nail beds that grow sloping inwards at about 80 degrees!
I've had a nightmare over the years trying to get a decent set of nails done, as the nail techs can't seem to work around my wonky fingers. In the end I did some training online for acrylics and gels (and watched a LOT of your videos) and I've been doing my own now about 10+ years.
The best way I've found to look at my nails to gauge where they need to go, is to hold my hand up with palm out, and turn it inwards 90 degrees, so thumbs point down to the floor.
I balance the twisted nails by sculpting extra product on the short side, filing back on the twisted side, and create a high C curve looking down the barrel of the nail so it's just offset with the knuckle. This way they appear aesthetically straight to other people (when extending my hand paying for things for example)
With the nail beds that grow crooked (or the crooked middle finger) I line up from the second joint and again use the high C curve following that line.
I use computers for my job, so can't go too long, about 1-1.5cm from the smile line, but I use a slight coffin shape as the sides are filed on angles anyway.
Just sharing my experience if it helps anyone??
PS nice to "meet" you Angel.. off to have a snoop at your channel.. :)
Omg I have the same issue with the same finger. Thanks Susie for showing me this video. Oh and the baby bites work great 😃 I love them .I have small hands its frustrating when you're trying to use a regular size nail drill bit. This is so much better.
I've never broken anything, yet was lucky enough to be born with a crooked finger and a crooked nail on the finger next to it lol. Thanks for the tips!
Both my pinky fingers are like his crooked ring finger, mine has always been like this. And I also do it like you showed us here, going with the flow of the finger 😊 For me it looks weird if I do it the other way, like the first method you showed us 🙈
Great video Suzie and Angel! 🥰❤
Another great video Suzy! I know personally it took me a while before I could give the illusion that all the nails are the same.
Same. It’s one of the reasons I took her workshop so I could learn how to do it.
I have a couple of crooked fingers and I learned to do my own nails. And with practice I found out the way to do my crooked nails the way I feel happy with them. And I do square, love it. Thank you for this video Susie and Angel for such beautiful nails❤️
Suzie over here collecting all the cuties like they're pokemon 😂❤❤
😂😂😂😂😂 that’s a huge compliment thank you.
@@beautyangelllc 😘 of course. ❤️
(Linda) I find that if you do like you did the first time, the finger looks even more crooked, so your second example is so much better! GREAT video.
I need one on how to make my joints look more slim. HA HA HA. Lupuuuuus.
I like the go with the finger because it grows out nicer.
Great vibes here! Loved Angel’s energy 🥰
Awe thanks 🙏🏽
Perfect perfect video each and every time Susie love it love it love it thank you for the good tips and tricks of how to do a crooked nail please have Angel back on your UA-cam channel more
Omg I’m going to tell Suzie. It’s hard for me cause I live in the state and Suzie is so far away.
Another new face ooo. Love it. Interesting topic. One I wouldn’t of thought of.
It’s something I was personally curious about I’m glad Suzie decided it would be a good topic.
@@beautyangelllc Yeah its a really good topic. I am sure plenty of people have a crooked finger due to incidents or age. So its good to know these things if you are simply interested or you want to go into a career of doing nails.
Another great video Suzie. Please tell Angel his hands are gorgeous - the shape and nail bed is perfect❤❤. I have a crooked nail on my dominant hand which has been a continual learning process for me 😂😂
Yes so glad - embrace those imperfections
Im so thankful for this video all my fingers are crooked like witch hands
lol 😂 not the witch hands.
You are the BEST Suzie!!! ✨💖✨
A side by side would definitely have been helpful lololol cause I can’t see the difference.
And yes Susie please do more with imperfect hands. These videos are really helpful. Thank you
Happy wonderful Sunday Susie thank you for giving some Great content. 💯‼️🆒👌🏼🥰 I hope that you'll do more different types of crooked nails for different finger shapes. Somewhere in have different type where they're crooked right at the nail bed itself as opposed to the whole finger 🤔😉🥰🆒 then you have some that don't have that much of a nail bed and they've been a nail biter it's hard to keep nails on.😢 That's what I've seen in the salons
awww!! it is adorable and so sweet, you have a very pretty manicure 🥰
Looks really good....tfs Suzie ❤
I really wish we could have seen a side by side comparison of the two versions.
That was amazing how you did that.
I like it somewhere in the middle
I split the difference too when I do that finger
I love your sweet patient voice. Some voices irritate me a bit and I loose interest in what is being taught to me because I'm older now and my patience is a bit worn unfortunately, however you are just blessed with the gift of patience and grace. ❤
So I've worked as a hair stylist for 45 years. Consequently, the 1st knuckles on my pointer & middle fingers are arthritic. So it's not just broken fingers that present a problem. The nail tech who works with me has a lot of older women with arthritic fingers.
Yes I know this issue well
I had many older clients - I love them
Like the second one 😍
Same me too
Thanks for sharing great info. 💗💗💗
The both look good, but I'm with him on that, because he is lucky to get them done like that!
Great video. First way I like the best. But as you say go with what you like❤
Very interesting Suzie...tfs
Angel, my nail bestie 💕 ❤
Jamie!!! 🖤🖤🖤
I love all the shapes, except Duck Bill. I just can't get behind that. 😂
I like anything that makes my fingers slender. Almond, stiletto, a very tapered square/coffin I can deal with.
Do you have a video on nail bits? If not I'd love to watch one. It gets confusing with how many kinds there are now. Thank you.
Oops I ment to say drill bits. Still on my 1st cup of coffee. Lol
Most of my clients want a tip vs a form that have crooked fingers...I place the tip with the top of hand facing me...and I go with the direction of the nail not the finger...💅🏼
Nice demo thanx😊
I enjoyed this video. I have an arthritic knuckle on my index finger, but it bends outwards towards the thumb, so I straighten the nail with the other fingers as much as can because otherwise it really points out to nowhere, especially when they are longer.
Omgsh I love him!
Awe thank you!
Omg thank you!
Cool 😀
I have a crooked nail - both of my middle fingers; must be a genetic thing… I stopped getting my nails done because the techs wouldn’t even try to correct it; but now with your help I’m going to give it a shot on my own.
Angel I love the shape of your nails! That’s the shape I always seem to go for on my own nails.
Awe thanks. Suzie did a great job.
I really like this video! Thank you so much! For me if it was my hand I would just prefer for them to go with the direction of the nail. On my middle finger on my left hand the nail bed looks like it is twisting towards my pinky and then both of my index fingers the nail beds kind of look like they're slightly twisted toward my pinkies, as well. I just prefer them to follow the nail bed. I know my nail beds are crooked, but it doesn't bother me.
Good video! My right hand ring finger is straight but my nail is crooked. I have to be very careful when I place a form on it to make sure it’s straight. Both hands my pointer finger nails grow down pretty strongly so I’m constantly lifting them.
Square will always be my go-to. With my lifestyle and how clumsy I naturally am, I don’t think I could go pointy. I like the look of it on others, but it’s not for me. I would perhaps consider coffin though.
My pinkies are crooked but I think my nails are straight.
@5:50 - I really love the look of square nails. But i have short stubby fingers so square nails don't suit my finger type. I can get away with it if i wear them super short natural length, which i often do on my right hand. But even then, i soften and round off the edges and it compliments my finger type more than the harder square.
I do like the almond for long nails though on my left hand. Nothing snags and doesn't catch on anything due to the rounded off tip.
I prefer the second nail you did. I, too have crooked ring fingers on both hands. Not as badly as this person. I also have arched "hooked" nails on my index fingers that require constant correcting as they grow out. But i grumble every time i do my nails about my crooked nails and just try to ignore them.
i've been seeing this short where a nail tech is all like ' the nail isn't crooked it's your finger' i'm going to recommend they watch this video...
Please do! I’m from the states and in nail school and my classmates found this video to be helpful.
My fingers are pretty crooked from my job, and the last nail tech was so frustrated with me. Lol
Does your preference change depending on the finger that’s crooked and which way it bends? For example, his ring finger bends toward the middle so going with the flow makes a nice V, but what if it bent the other way? Or if the middle finger has a strong bend?
I have crooked middle fingers and crooked thumb nails, so it’s a challenge getting my nails to look straight. I’ve kinda just accepted them for what they are. 😅
Oh may! Friend I was thinking I was getting my nails done, Angel's hand dear looks like my hand really has the same fingers and all....
lol are we hand twins?
Hi Suzie! My nails grow crooked! I love having my natural nails long and have been using gel polish for a long time. I have never figured out how to shape my nail when it starts to grow with a curve in it. Its hard figuring out how to balance it without taking too much off of the natural nail. Any tips? Thanks!!
I prefer square for my nails because other shapes don’t look good on my nails
I feel that. I don’t think square looks good on me.
For me, it's my pinkie finger that is crooked. Very helpful video, thank you!
It is alittle bit - but for this vid I focused on the strongest effect
what tips are easier to size full cover tips or half cover tips
Hi 😊 just letting you know that you thought me to do my soft gel nails. It s a whole year now ❤
I have the crooked finger and nailbed. The techs where I live don't sculpt they do tips and it's crooked all the time
Awesome...what would you do if 6 of the nails have straight hyperniciums & ski nails and 4 of them have gently curved hyperniciums with the slightest curve to the ski nails? I have a hard time settling on a filing shape since the 6 aren't the same shape as the 4.
Well, it is certainly a very detailed question which warrants a very in-depth detailed answer. Far too much for this one comment. But if you’d like to get into it, you can email me at helen@nailcareer.com. Please include this transaction so I know exactly which comment refers to.
He likes to look like a what, I couldn't catch it, I kept rewinding but no luck? Love the nails. Xx
It’s ok - if it’s not something you’re experiencing then you don’t have crooked fingers and that’s super awesome
@@NailCareerEducation I liked his nails, I just couldn't work out what he was saying. Xx
I like to look like a villain lol.
Thanks for that. 😂
What about a twisted finger and twisted nail rather than a bent finger. Should it just go with the natural middle of the nail or does it really matter? I always worry about the form not being level from the side edges. 😅
Can acrylic or gel be used on peeling nails? I have even tried press-on and my nails peeled down to very soft 😢
I'm sorry Angel has a crooked finger. I have a question. Can you use gel polish on natural nails? And if you can, should you use a lamp to dry?
I have both a crooked finger and crooked nail for both index fingers. This has ALWAYS been a significant challenge for me. My question would be for a fill, what would you do for a crooked nail to keep it as symmetrical as possible? That's my biggest problem. I can build the nail beautifully and to my liking, but after about the second fill, the nail is basically going sideways to the point where the sidewall is almost to the middle. It drives me absolutely nuts, so I end up just doing an entirely new nail. And it's my index fingers, so of course it's one that needs the most strength and stability to keep from breaking off. Fingers are crooked from medical condition, and nails are twisted just because.. finger rotates inward, nails twist outward. When I used to go to nail techs, it was always a battle of getting what I wanted vs what the nail tech wanted to do, so I just started doing them on my own.
Yes, when it starts to grow out if it’s not growing the way you want you most certainly have to remove it and start again every once in a while
Hi Angel and Susie!!
Hi sweetie ❤️
Hello!!!! 👋🏽
I see this two hours after doing my nails and dealing with two natural crooked nails. 😭 next time!
I like my nails to follow my side walls. Parallel on both sides
My sister has a crooked nail and it also causes her pain may I ask why this has happened?
What is the name of the polish. Love love
Idk if I’m allowed to tell but it’s in her new collection that hasn’t dropped just yet. But I can tell you Grant named them.
Ok, thanks
Both ways look alright to me but it's good to have the option. My nails have different shaped hyponychium on almost every finger and many have a more extreme curve on one side so the free edge never looks even and flat to me. It's so annoying!
The nails on both of my index fingers are crooked
I recently saw someone whose finger is crooked AND twists who had her nails done… I don’t think there’s an optical illusion for that, if there is, her nail tech failed at it, because it was very noticeable and I hadn’t ever noticed it before she got her nails done.
*Oh I like the “corrected” one better, you did amazing, I looked great.*
My pointer finger's nails are slightly twisted but not crooked 😟
Twisting is pretty normal
@@beautyangelllc yeah but it's still annoying. All nail looks normal and these are slightly hiding behind my middle fingers 😄. The gel polish tends to run to that side 😐
What's with the layering? It was stressing me out lmao seems too thick
Once I filed it it’s perfect
Can you even fix that with a tip or do I need a form for that?
You can do either - just gotta be mindful of placement
My fingers are a nail techs nightmare. Almost all my fingers are crooked.
Actually, I love customers with a little challenge like this. A good nail technician will not have an issue with it at all. They will take it on and create art.
I went to vietnam recently, and did my nails with acrylic... it already peeled off on the second day 😭😭 is it because i went swimming the next day? :( that set lasted me 6days
No, nothing to do with the water.
If the nails are applied properly water has no effect. These nails were just not applied correctly 😕
I have crooked thumbnails and crooked fingers... I don't wear long fake nails because it exaggerates the crookedness of both
I wish you could show off how to do tiny nails. It’s all pinkie nails for me 😂
Watch when I do mine - they are tiny compared to most
All of my nails sit crooked on my fingers. It's Soo annoying
That’s ok - a lot of us do
It doesn't matter how disgusting the finger looks like, the client must have respect and shall have the nails done with the direction of the finger.
This is why I did this video so now the customer can fully understand what’s involved. Hopefully this helps nail techs explain it to the customer - cause if they dont understand it it’s just awkward for everyone
no way yall really dont see a difference 💀 its immediately night and day. maybe you just have no artistic vision if you cant see it
I agree - it’s huge to me BUT I’m use to it - it may take experience to see the severity
I HAVE A FINGERNAIL THAT GROWS CROOKED I HAVE A TERRIBLE TIME MAKING IT LOOK GOOD
For how long Susie has done acrylic she takes way too long and shows inefficient ways of applying; putting tons of beads over and over will introduce air pockets; and how she rolls the acrylic over like it’s a lump of dough going on a baking tray is awkward i never seen that before
Structurally you want to have a uniform one bead for the entire nail not multiple in different sections unless building since each bead is subject to different shear and tensile stress you aren’t allowing it to conform to the overall shape and length
She’s showing different techniques that if you watch videos in full work perfectly fine. Also she is taking her time and explaining while recording, it is bound to take time. She isn’t teaching a course at a nail tech school, she is showing alternative ways to make it easier for at home use and amateurs.
Pro Tip - stay AWAY from the One Bead method - it’s a fast way to breakage.
You don’t have to do a one bead method. That’s where you’re wrong. Three bead method is perfectly fine or as many beads as you need is perfectly fine as well. You truly don’t know what you’re talking abt with this comment.
@@AngelicaSolis94 you can use as many as possible but If you have bulges since you don’t have control over your bead it’s not cause you are trying to only do one
There’s is no three bead method to section the nail; you expect an overlay on short nails to need three beads? Don’t add unnecessary steps when it’s not needed when specifying a number for a technique
@@Chrissylovesyou20 nail career education implies for people who want to do it as a career does it not? That’s the premise for her channel; amateur and professionals benefit from these discussions
There was no difference
Yeah, they looked pretty much the same to me too.
@@kathiehein5969I think here, Susie is showing that with a longer nail it's giving the illusion that the finger is straighter.
@@JadenYukifan28, and he does have beautiful nails!
@@kathiehein5969 Oh yeah, Angel's nails are really beautiful.
To a customer it’s huge cause they can get alittle extra sensitive cause they really see it
