"Situations when you're a musician..." I feel so seen, thank you Alexandra!! I love these videos because I've never had fake nails, and the upkeep and cost of doing it at a salon when I can't wear them for very long is just too impractical. Your videos are seriously answering all my questions about doing them at home, and knowing how to remove them was a big concern. I think I might actually try this now!
I play guitar and wear these sometimes for a week and take them off on the weekend, and I use the same method of warm water to remove them☺️ I never did nails at the salon because I'd have to be with them for more than a week and that's not for me, I love my guitar way too much 😆
I’m a noob to press ons, they came in the mail today and this video was uploaded today. Perfect timing. Mine look so good because I followed these tips!!
You really really changed my mind on press ons! This is almost my second week with them and never did any manicure last me this long! Thank you so much, finally I can have super pretty nails that lasts and look natural 🥹🙏✨
I appreciate the way you explain how to apply press-on nails. Your friendly and confident tone of voice makes a real impact on me. Thank you for creating such an informative tutorial video.❤
I have been obsessed with press on nails lately but i never knew how to do them correctly,they always turned out bad ,but tonight i did them while watching this video amd they turned out amazing..thank youu💗💗😊
I love these nail enhancement videos! I am unable to grow long nails. All the vitamins go to my hair. So I was about to put some on and then these videos happened!!! Could you tell us the best brand of press on nails? Thank you.
I love press on nails! My favorite thing to do now is buy the clear ones and just paint the designs on myself. It’s quite relaxing and plus they will look perfect instead of awkwardly painting the other side with my non dominant hand 😅
Those thin brows suit your face beautifully. I know the bushy brows are a trend right now, I have them naturally also. But the thing is that they don’t look harmonious with all faces! I see many women grow them out and it just looks odd. I love how you style and groom everything so it really suits YOU 🙏🏻
As long as you properly prep your nails before you apply them it should last weeks! File your nail surface gently to remove the shine, use an alcohol wipe to remove dust and oils, make sure you use enough glue so there are no air bubbles
Also- additional tip- don’t just put more glue on the old glue- use a file, buff your nail- KEEP IT DRY- wipe dust with DRY paper towel, and glue a NEW NAIL on.
Thank you for all of this info...you sound so genuine and like a really caring person lol. Your personality shows through 😊 I hate how my nails always pop off in like one day.
I started using press pins in 2020 then switched to gelx... I love both ways but for sure press ons are more convenient if one pops off d to gel x that you need to get the lamp to cure them back on. Love your tutorial, these steps are very important to make them last...
PSA: only use enhancements that are as half as long as the length of your current nail. So measure your current mail length in half and that is how much length you should add to the end of your nail. If you go longer only keep them on for a short period of time. Why? Because a really short nail supporting a long nail causes a lot of stress. You are very likely to experience your natural nail coming away from the nail bed. Otherwise enjoy press ons cause they are awesome.
Super helpful. I’ve only been using press on a few months and I buy the ones from Claire’s.. I’m ready to start painting my own. you’ve got me even more excited with all these helpful tips. ♥️♥️♥️💯
I want to try them since I went to a salon and got a bit of a crap job. I have really small hands and nail beds though, so was thinking if I have to file them at the sides and bottom to fit, it will take off the colour and shine, which will look a mess? Don't want to have to paint over them.
Right before Covid you taught me how to use press on nails. I’m all for these new tips after recently spending 💰 in salons & still not quite getting what I want!❤❤❤
Lol I am literally wearing press ons right now and had no idea they were numbered. I’ve never noticed that before! I looked closely and sure enough, there are numbers!
I’ve been wearing Kiss glue on nails since the late 90’s!!! Covid came and now I can’t hardly find my beautiful nails… these nails are money savers and time savers… I don’t have time to sit in the nail shop for 3 hours😢…You can’t tell the difference once they are out on correctly! Thank you beautiful for a wonderful video of our once hidden secret!!!😊
Clawhammer Banjo player here! Thank you so much for this video! I would love to have pretty nails from time to time without having to ignore my banjo for too long
Very cool video, but such long nails are a nightmare for me to handle anything while wearing. Alsi, what I used to love were nail tips...have not seen them for a long time -- they took a while to create, but you could customize them re length & shape, & they felt exactly like your own natural nails when wearing them too, picking things up, etc, etc (the tips fit under the ends of the natural nails, & a little acrylic mix went on covering in the line of the tip & the natural nail. Then when the acrylic dried, qhuch was quuckly, you just smoothed down that fill-in ridge with a reg. nail file. Then you had nails that looked great, lasted a long time, were perfectly customizable, felt like your own natural nails, that you could polish & remove N.P. from. You needed to use special N.P. remover for acrylic nails to take the tips off. I loved them!! I hate that creepy way that normal fake nails feel.
The real game changer for me was buying an electric file from the local beauty supply! It buffs the nail so well that my press-ons do not fall off! Also saves time in doing my cuticles ❤
Everybody! Not all press ons can be exposed to nail polish remover /acetone to remove anything even glue. Not my custom gel press ons! You're better off using a buffer or file, or an e-file. Just saying!
I don't like them, I think they're very cool if you really like powders and enjoy the process of pouring and layering but its a very theatrical way to get a shellac or gel type of result IMO
Thank you for the response. I have read conflicting reviews. I trust your opinion. Seen all your videos and you have been into doing nails in several ways, so I feel you are a pretty good authority on the subject. 😉
Help! To remove you said to soak them in the hot water with oil and dish soap - does it mean I can't wash dishes with these nails on without wearing gloves?
What happens when you shower or wash your hands? Bath products have surfactants like dish soaps too. Will the fake nails fall off in the shower? Will the bond in the glue loosen each time you wash your hands?
Every time in cosmo school someone said "paint..." the instructor would IMMEDIATELY say "POLISH. we POLISH nails we PAINT cars." Now I can't get it out of my head - ~*°polish°*~ your nails! Lol
I’m living for these consistent uploads 🥲🥲❤️

doing them nails now to me its "mindfulness time" 😆
It took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize I could paint the nails before putting them on. 😂
Which clear ones do you buy and where? 💅🏼
Omg this is so smart!
@@emilyanne9513I'm well over middle aged and today I learnt. How? How have we been conditioned to avoid the obvious lol. It's odd right!?
i watched both of these videos before putting on press ons and i can already tell the difference !! thank you so much so the tips
Those thin brows suit your face beautifully. I know the bushy brows are a trend right now, I have them naturally also. But the thing is that they don’t look harmonious with all faces! I see many women grow them out and it just looks odd. I love how you style and groom everything so it really suits YOU 🙏🏻
i was adoring those short lil videos
thank you for a longer one queen
You're so welcome
Love the option of adhesive pads, I don’t like really long nails but it’s gives me the option for a weekend nail color 😊
The best part is you can keep them and re stick them when you want! So glad I discovered these
I haven't seen you in so long. Glad I got the notification!!
As long as you properly prep your nails before you apply them it should last weeks! File your nail surface gently to remove the shine, use an alcohol wipe to remove dust and oils, make sure you use enough glue so there are no air bubbles
@Carine Take a little bit of acetone and clean up the sides
@cc6112abyou’re not alone i have the same issue
@cc6112abyou are definitely not alone
@cc6112abYou are not alone.
Also- additional tip- don’t just put more glue on the old glue- use a file, buff your nail- KEEP IT DRY- wipe dust with DRY paper towel, and glue a NEW NAIL on.
Omg this has made my nails last soooooo much longer I even did one hand with the video and one without and the video helped a lot
Thank you! I just bought some but was a little worried about my natural nails. I will share how I do.
Thank you for all of this info...you sound so genuine and like a really caring person lol. Your personality shows through 😊 I hate how my nails always pop off in like one day.

Thank you so much!!! Screenshot saved 😊 where do you get your press on nails please and what glue do you recommend x
Your videos are so beautiful. They are works of art
What press on nails do you recommend?? And what glue? Love these videos thank youu 🤍✨
Hi ☺️☺️☺️ can you pls offr a link to the white clear press on from this video? Loveu

i went into claire’s for the first time in YEARSS the other day and was shocked by how good/gorgeous the press ons have gotten since i was younger lol
Can you do a video on how to keep your lips moisturized and not cracked in the winter? I slather on lip balm but it only provides a temporary fix
I love this idea, YES!
@@AlexandrasGirlyTalk omg you replied 💕 so excited
Late but.. VASELINE!! Every morning, during the day, before bed (try putting more before bed cuz yk..)
It’s really helpful for me at least!
I want to try them since I went to a salon and got a bit of a crap job.
I have really small hands and nail beds though, so was thinking if I have to file them at the sides and bottom to fit, it will take off the colour and shine, which will look a mess? Don't want to have to paint over them.
Soooo well done! New to press ons and so glad I found you right away!
Those are really pretty shapes and styles Alex, what brand and style do you use? Loved the french and the blue. Great video
I had to stop watching a videp about press-ons because I got the notification to your video on press-ons 😂 I guess I'll have to try them
thank you! a little question, how do we protect our natural nail ?
Right before Covid you taught me how to use press on nails. I’m all for these new tips after recently spending 💰 in salons & still not quite getting what I want!❤❤❤

I literally just finished watching the last video and was like OK I'M READY FOR PRESS ONS. BUT HOW DO I REMOVED THEM. AND BOOM HERE WE ARE
Yayyyy🥰✨💗
I tried removing them as she shows in the tutorial and absolutely nothing happened not even a little bit and my set was almost 3 weeks old

Where do you purchase your nails?
Brands that you like? (Very new to this)
What nails are good from Amazon??
Where do you get yours??💕
How about a video about the kiss gel nel tips.
The real game changer for me was buying an electric file from the local beauty supply! It buffs the nail so well that my press-ons do not fall off! Also saves time in doing my cuticles ❤
Where did you get the pink sparkle nails? Love those
You helpt me so much with my nail hacks!
Thanks😍😍
Recommendations for a little pouch for holding extra nails and glue?
How are they when you wash your hair? Does the strands get caught on the nails?
Thanks a lot for these tips ! Do Press nails damage the nails and prevent it from growing ?
Are all brand numbers the same? Or, for exactly, will a "3" vary?
Which press-on nail brands do you commonly use?
Me! 😊 Haha
I wanna know
What is the best glue? I feel like I haven’t found THE glue.
Does your removal method work for all kinds of press-ons? Curious to try, but don't want to ruin my nails.
UPDATE: It works!!!! Go ahead and do it!!!!
Thanks so much for this video! It's very useful 👍👍
I wish you listed the products you use and the links!
I was wondering do you think that the press on nail sticker or nail glue works better. Also I love your video and I am a huge fan.
I'm 100% team glue!
Everybody! Not all press ons can be exposed to nail polish remover /acetone to remove anything even glue. Not my custom gel press ons! You're better off using a buffer or file, or an e-file. Just saying!
Love this
I’m a nurse and this might be a solution for me ❤️
That’s amazing ❤️ think it totally could be🥰
I'm team press on all the way
I was considering buying press ons, I think this is my sign
What do you think about those nail dip kits?
I don't like them, I think they're very cool if you really like powders and enjoy the process of pouring and layering but its a very theatrical way to get a shellac or gel type of result IMO
I agree and it’s messy too
Thank you for the response. I have read conflicting reviews. I trust your opinion. Seen all your videos and you have been into doing nails in several ways, so I feel you are a pretty good authority on the subject. 😉

Great video. What kind of glue did you use?
Love your video!!! What kind of press on nails that have numbers on them?
I feel so fortunate that we are getting all these consistent uploads!! SPOILED
Thank you, you have been like a mother in this process. 😂😂😂❤
Can you pls link where you got the beige white ones please 🙏🏼
where are your press-on nails from? they are beautiful.
Can you give us some great nail brands and talabout price and custom press on nails?
What happens when you shower or wash your hands? Bath products have surfactants like dish soaps too. Will the fake nails fall off in the shower? Will the bond in the glue loosen each time you wash your hands?
thats my question exactly, washing dishes, taking showers, the hot water and soaps/shampoo always makes all mine pop off a day later
Mine don't
Never had issue with this and I'm in water constantly
No issues
Every time in cosmo school someone said "paint..." the instructor would IMMEDIATELY say "POLISH. we POLISH nails we PAINT cars." Now I can't get it out of my head - ~*°polish°*~ your nails! Lol
If you see this can you please tell me where you got those dark red press on nails??? ❤ those were super pretty 😅
I wish she list the products in the description box
What prank is your kit? What glue are you using?
