Good for her. People don’t realize nailbiting is a horrific habit to try and break. I did it as a kid for many years -now I do my nails and of course I don’t do it,but sometimes I want to pick the cuticles!that’s a whole other story! Fabulous work😍
Yes. I agree.. I bit my nails till I was 25. And all of a sudden I stopped. I don't know why but I am 28 in November and thankfully my nails and my nail plates are looking beautiful. ❤️❤️
This must have been so satisfying for you to do a simple fill on Anna! Bravo to Anna for getting this far! You should both be very proud! I love the longer detailed video. I can't get enough of your videos, Anastasia! Keep them coming! 😊 And thank you for sharing! You are an amazingly talented nail tech, and I have learned so much from you. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Honestly i like all Anna videos the most, i almost saw all the transformation and I remember how it was really hard for you to push her cuticles, and they were too damaged.. now i am impressed .. what a Wonderful technician and artist 😍😍 👩🎨
I know you've been doing this for some time now, but your amazing cuticle scissor skills are my favorite thing to watch. Anna is lucky to have you (and all your clients)!
I love how far Anna has come with your help and advice. She's awesome and so are you! Please keep showing her journey with us because I love watching how much better things are getting for her. ♥️
Omg. Me too!! It's satisfying!! This girl has such tiny fingers and nails but she definitely grows a lot in her cuticle area. The amount she gets out of there is just my favorite part.
Getting acrylic when I was 18 stopped me from my lifelong (at the time) habit of biting my nails! After I removed the acrylic, I saw my real nails had a free edge! I was SO excited and I didn't want to ruin it, so I just let it keep growing. Now I have nice long nails and my nail beds have actually gotten a bit longer, which I didn't think would happen because they looked SO stumpy before! So there is hope for biters!
Your story is inspiring! I've been a nail bitter from 16 yo and never stopped yet (i'm 31). I've had my nails done for so long and I had a free edge... but after a week, I bite them all off again! I hope one day i'll be able to stop like you! ❤
Anna shud b so very very proud of herself n u shud b proud of yrself helpin her in this amazin journey. Here's 2 both of u n the work uve put in2 this chapter xxxxxxxxx
Long video with Anna and storytime? Win-win-win! Anna is doing so good! Please tell her that we're all so proud of how far she's come. I'm so happy for her that she made it to a fill finally! 💗
Absolutely love the story you told. Thats part of what keeps me doing nails, the impact this small thing can have on peoples lives, and when they become regulars and you get to know them and just chat and laugh, its so rewarding.
I love the stories - I've had a similar motivation from my nails. Since I've been doing my nails more, it's definitely helped me with lots of other things. When I feel like I'm not doing my best, the nails are visual evidence that I can do something right, and that I'm beautiful. It's extremely motivating. Sometimes, I just look at them and it's like looking at some lovely flowers, and it makes me smile and relaxes me. It's recharging!
That's a really good job, Anastasia! You are such a PRO!! 👌😍❤ Great to hear that Anna was able to come only for filling, not the whole new design 👌🌞 I remember her nails from the beginning and this is huge success in the fight against biting her nails 😻🙆♀️😎
So glad you are moving to a longer format! You came recommended by Kirsty Meakin and Im so happy to get to learn a style from another country and one with as high standards such as you and yours!! we all have so much to learn-Thank you!
Nails are so personal, the fact the she was able recognize her own beauty and use that as a motivation is amazing! Also I love your story times and the longer videos!❤
Anna is the reason why I am so far succeeding in having my nails grow out. It honestly feels so weird having long (barely normal size) nails Best of luck, Anna! ❤
Go Ana! Well done. Such a huge step for you. I “stopped” biting my nails at age 19yrs but still struggle from time to time. If I am not biting the actual nail, I pick at the cuticle area. I commend you on your progress. Anastasia; you have such a difference to your client
Wow Anna's nails look remarkable! Anastasia you are a master! So beautiful! I love the storytime you have and the speed you use is so help full to me. Thank you!
That's awesome. It's so nice to see short,bitten nails & skin transformed into something the client can be proud of. Loved your story as well. As always,Thank You!😊😘
I just found your videos and I LOVE your style. You do your job out of care for your clients well-being and self-esteem, and this shines through all you say! At work I need to use detergents every day, and I cannot use gloves all the time. Learning to care for my nails and cuticles at home and at the salon gave me so much more confidence and I don't get infected cuticles anymore. Thank you!
My nail tech is also a co-worker of mine and a very good friend. I have severe anxiety and one of my worst habits is biting my nails. I have only bitten them super short twice in the last 6 months! I go see her about every other week and she gives me a new set of adorable and unique nails and I absolutely love it!
Beautiful as always Anastasia I have my nail's done for two reason's...the first is the same as Anna I'm a nail biter from way back...the second reason is they make me feel happier as my nail tech does a wonderful job with them and people come up and talkto me about how beautiful they are...thankyou for sharing Anna's journey she must be so glad to have found you xo 💜💅💜
Thank you so much for sharing your drill speeds! I never know how fast I should be setting mine. Your videos with Anna are the best! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Tell her we love her 🥰
Yay! I loved everything about this video. One of my favorite clients of yours, extra footage in the video, a storytime, and most importantly, a fantastic result for your client! 10/10 ❤️❤️❤️❤️💥💥💥💥
I love Anna's journey, great work by both of you! I also loved your story - I feel like people who provide services like make up, hair, nails, massage, skin care, etc. sometimes don't realize how important their work is. Getting a service like this helps "fill my pitcher" so I can pour out for others. The confidence from a manicure may help someone do better in a job interview or be more confident when meeting new people.
Actually if the nail tech is very nice and open to a friendly time with me the exchange 😊 is so helpful to me nail techs are very important to us because when we go to the salon it is usually a a way to treat ourselves and escape the stressful lives
Congratulations Anna!🥳🥳 As a reformed nail biter myself(with occasional relapses) I know just how hard a habit it is to break. You have done so well. It won’t be long until you are just getting clear acrylic over your own nails. Xx
I have always bitten my nails and it makes them very sore. Your videos with Anna have made me invest in learning to do nails myself so that I don’t feel embarrassed to get my nails done and save money on them as a student ❤️ thank you
yay ana ...im glad she is doing so well with leaving nails alone !....cute design but i wonder if she would like using chrome ? and yes story time and longer videos is good. i totally relate with your client who likes to look down and see pretty nails...even pedicure too...makes you feel prettier and want to feel more pretty...ty for posting your videos...💗💅🏽💗
Great job Anna and Anastasia! Beautiful nails! I do my own nails. I’ve grown them longer because the strength of builder gel over my natural nails keeps them from breaking. I bought one of the drills you recommended a while back and learned how to give myself a dry manicure from watching your videos. Thanks! I love watching the cuticle clean up and wish I actually had more dry skin to remove on myself bc it’s so satisfying and I never have much. 😀
I love how amazing her nails are becoming!!! Bad habits are so hard to break! I have a bad habit of trimming my cuticles too often which i feel makes them grow faster so its a vicious cycle that i'm trying to break 😅
It's amazing to see her journey. I am a former nail biter and my journey took years also. I WISH I had a nail tech to help me. It seems she is well on her way to being done with it. I imagine she is saying nope, not hardly but one day I was somewhere and noticed a lady watch me bite my nails and I was so embarrassed. It actually happened many times but for some reason that time was majorly embarrassing. I put my hands down, looked at my fingers and wondered why I do it. Over the course of a few weeks I kept remembering that moment and would get embarrassed all over again. Which then led me to see my nails grow out some. They weren't beautiful like other people's nails but I was proud and then got my first set of acrylic and that was it. Had I known what a tech could do I might've done the journey quicker but I made it. I am impressed with Anna's story. She has beautiful nails. I imagine one day her nail story will be like If you could see her hands when she first came in and now she makes us all envious with her nail beds.
I love all your videos. I know you are a professional and this is probably not your style, but I have seen alot of videos on tips filled with baby oil and tiny decorations that float. If you feel like doing a fun video, would you consider doing your own version of something like that? I'm sure they would be remarkable. Thank you!
I’m glad she still has the good boss that lets her have a bit of fun. I remember when she could only do natural or French which made no sense for back of house staff. 😒 I mean don’t get me wrong, I love a good nude or French, but sometimes you just want to go wild (currently doing bright neon blue in the dark for a goodbye to summer 😎 ).
I'm on my own nail journey as well lol. I'm a dog groomer & my nails go through he'll 😖 Poly gel has been. Huge help. Love the beautiful transformation!
I like your story. I agree that doing someone's nails can make them feel empowered and confident. It's such a small thing with such big results. Once I'm licensed I want to spend a few hours a week at the family shelter near me. These women are coming out of abusive situations and looking for jobs and an apartment. The shelter gives them outfits for interviews and they have a person to do haircuts, but nails seem like an extravagant cost. I would love to donate time just doing a basic manicure with regular polish they can remove later. It's something I love doing so I want to share that.
Nail biting is something I still struggle with and nail care has been a huge help in at least curbing the impulse. Maintaining the cuticles and the skin around the nails is so important for me. I cannot have any dead skin or any dryness or flaking or I will end up biting. I also can't let my nails get too far beyond the finger tip as a broken nail or nails I notice will lead to biting.
I'm so happy for Anna! I loved this video (I love all your videos) but this one was so motivating to see how Anna has come to this point. I wanted to ask about the buffers per product? Maybe I missed it but is there a video where you talk about the different grit buffers/files/sanding bands for different types of products (polygel, acrylic, soft gel, hard gel)?
Good for her. People don’t realize nailbiting is a horrific habit to try and break. I did it as a kid for many years -now I do my nails and of course I don’t do it,but sometimes I want to pick the cuticles!that’s a whole other story! Fabulous work😍
I've never done it but I get it too; your hands are always there and available, so compared to other habits, its harder to stop.
😢😢😂😂😂
Yes. I agree.. I bit my nails till I was 25. And all of a sudden I stopped. I don't know why but I am 28 in November and thankfully my nails and my nail plates are looking beautiful. ❤️❤️
I’m 40 with an oral fixation...still bite my nails. It's why I use coloured dip or acrylic so I can’t chew it off like I did polish.
I used to do that when I was younger, thank god I broke the habit
I think your videos with Anna are my favorites :-) I’m very happy for her of her nail journey, and I thank you for sharing it with us !
I obviously don't even know Anna but I'm so proud of her! This is a major accomplishment! 👏👍
This must have been so satisfying for you to do a simple fill on Anna! Bravo to Anna for getting this far! You should both be very proud! I love the longer detailed video. I can't get enough of your videos, Anastasia! Keep them coming! 😊 And thank you for sharing! You are an amazingly talented nail tech, and I have learned so much from you. Thank you! 🙏🏼

i love watching her file off the cuticle it’s my absolute favorite part
Omg. Me too!! It's satisfying!! This girl has such tiny fingers and nails but she definitely grows a lot in her cuticle area. The amount she gets out of there is just my favorite part.
The dry manicure is sooooo satisfying 🥰 very pretty 😍
I am envious she has a sweet and kind tech who understands her journey and creates beauty in the space that comforts her. She is very lucky! ❤️
I love that you tell us the RPM and other tips. I would not put on gems because they could fall off in food prep. Beautiful nails Anna

Why am I so invested in Anna's wellbeing ~ haha.. Keeping up with Anna
Anna’s nails look so cute. So happy for her.
Yes please make more longer videos 🙏🏽
I have learned so much from you!
Thank you for all you do ♥️♥️
Am I the only one who doesn't do nails but still watches Anastasia's videos because they're really satisfying?
Absolutely love the story you told. Thats part of what keeps me doing nails, the impact this small thing can have on peoples lives, and when they become regulars and you get to know them and just chat and laugh, its so rewarding.
Love you Anastasia! Thanks for the longer videos! We appreciate you considering the subscribers opinions 💕

I always enjoy Ana updates. I’m a nail biter and have worked in kitchens so I know the challenges she has. This set is practical and pretty.
So glad you are moving to a longer format! You came recommended by Kirsty Meakin and Im so happy to get to learn a style from another country and one with as high standards such as you and yours!! we all have so much to learn-Thank you!
Love how long and detailed this video was!! Can't wait for the next one 💅
I love the long videos! ❤️
Nails are so personal, the fact the she was able recognize her own beauty and use that as a motivation is amazing! Also I love your story times and the longer videos!❤
Anna I’m so happy u nails all lasted for 3 weeks. They look so cute.
Anna is the reason why I am so far succeeding in having my nails grow out. It honestly feels so weird having long (barely normal size) nails
Best of luck, Anna! ❤
Go Ana! Well done. Such a huge step for you. I “stopped” biting my nails at age 19yrs but still struggle from time to time. If I am not biting the actual nail, I pick at the cuticle area. I commend you on your progress. Anastasia; you have such a difference to your client

Love your channel! This has helped me so much recently! Trying to get better at nails! Thank you!💖 loved this set!
Keep it up Anna!!!
Wow u should be proud of her
Great story time!
I love how amazing her nails are becoming!!! Bad habits are so hard to break! I have a bad habit of trimming my cuticles too often which i feel makes them grow faster so its a vicious cycle that i'm trying to break 😅
Me too. It’s a compulsion so hard to break. I either pick at them or over trim. Usually while trying no to return to biting.
I love your work !! 😇😇
Looks amazing 🤩
Well done girls! Your nails look beautiful Anna ❣️
Beautiful!!!!
The most satisfying cuticle cleaning ever haha 😂
It's amazing to see her journey. I am a former nail biter and my journey took years also. I WISH I had a nail tech to help me. It seems she is well on her way to being done with it.

So glad Anna finally made it to a fill. So exciting. I have one question? What do you mean by the nail polish will clog the bit?
Nail biting is something I still struggle with and nail care has been a huge help in at least curbing the impulse. Maintaining the cuticles and the skin around the nails is so important for me. I cannot have any dead skin or any dryness or flaking or I will end up biting. I also can't let my nails get too far beyond the finger tip as a broken nail or nails I notice will lead to biting.
