“How do two brothers get into the nail care business?” This is the single most common question people ask us. There’s a long and rocky version but we’ll give you the short one. We have our fearless and unconventional mother, Young Salo, to thank. With a single-minded entrepreneurial spirit, she decided to start her own business at the age of 49. She had a passion for the nail industry and we did everything in our power to support her. In the end, this is a family business.
Greg, the older brother, became a licensed nail technician after switching gears from fire fighter’s training. He is energy personified and has a true passion for developing the best professional nail care products and education. Habib is the younger brother. He jumped in a few years later; taking a detour from medical school and a life in music. He brings his own creative mind for business, marketing and strategy. Unexpectedly, we are a perfect team.
Today, more than 20 years later, Young Nails Inc., is a professional nail care manufacturing company exporting to over 40 countries worldwide and distributing domestically to over 3000 stores. We’re respected for our next-level product innovation and education. Our mission is to bring you the best quality products and we’ll show you how to use them with incredible results. It’s really that simple.
Welcome to the Young Nails family! - Навчання та стиль
This is the shape I tried to get my nail tech to do for years, and they just never understood. Love love love.
This is (imo) the prettiest,most "wearable" example of Russian Almond. How nice to see a tutorial done this way. Thanks so much Greg!😊
You're very welcome!
This is one of my most favorite shapes. Ive never met a tech in Maryland that can do one. I do like mine "exaggerated" though. This is a beautiful and wearable example. But i love the more deeper sidewalls and straight edges and more narrow at the tip.
Definitely a favorite shape!!
Right, i love the Russian Almond Shape like u ... a great Shape!😉👍
Idk what it is about MD, but it’s so hard to find techs that even do sculpted nails! Any suggestions?
Love this shape, without knowing it's called a Russian Almond, I've been doing my own nails in this shape for a while!
Oh wow! it's a great shape!
Thank you for make it understandable and easy ❤❤❤❤
Of course! We hope you learned something new from this video on russian almond nails.
This is by far the prettiest Russian Almond I've seen. It's such an interesting shape. I've seen some that were very pronounced with the bottom arches being very long and boxy. Greg's version is soft, subtle and definitely sexy as he said. It looked like sooooo much product being used I was scared for a minute but the end result is lovely and signature Young Nails work!! 💗
Thank you so much for this kind words!! ❤️💖
Lovely shape. Your cuticle application is absolutely mesmerising to watch!
Thank you so much!
Watched you guys 8 years ago and only just rediscovered you and im loving the way you have taken the channel. Obsessed 😍

I like this shape very much
I'd *love* to see a series this in depth on all the nail shapes that are popular today, and maybe some of the less requested shapes too like an Edge. This was great!
Love that!! Great idea! ❤️💖
for anyone wondering you got to tip the front of your form up & cut each side make a slight slit on each side of the free edge area…I learned by watching kirsty meakin.. nAio and her channel both have videos on these different shapes…
Ugh I was just on your site for the 20/20 nailpolish deal and was thinking man I wish YN had advice for Russian style. You guys always cover it all so well
Greg and that hypnotic voice 😋

❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful!!! 😍 Def need some YN forms to accomplish a good extension! 😉😁
Right?! Thanks for watching!! ❤️💖
Beautiful...👍
Thanks a lot 😊
Love the shape and the fact that Greg didn't sculpt a big whooping apex, like you see mostly with this shape. 💪🏽❤
❤️💖
Wish you would have shown the c-curve at the end, I could tell it was perfect. Greg always makes amazing nails, I love his voice & how he explains what he's doing! This is my favourite nail shape also, with stiletto coming in close behind lol
Oh great idea! Thank you for watching!
I love that shape!! 💖💖
Same!! ❤️💖
The shape is beautiful I love it
❤️💖
The video was 12mins it seemed like it was 5mins and he made it look so easy in the simplest way I’m trying this out with my nail journey wish me luck
Perfect almond shape
❤️💖
That's beautiful 😍 ❤
Thank you! 😊
FANTÁSTICO!!!
Thank you!
Love you guys
❤️
Wow.....loving it Greg
Thank you!!
I HAVE A IDEA! You guys should come out with a velvet product or like a video of how to pull off the velvet look. I haven't seen many videos but you guys never fail me ♥️
Great idea!! Noted!! ❤️💖
ILOVE DA SHAPEEE🥰😍
❤️💖
W❤W! You do some fabulous work!
Thank you so much!
I love the Russian almond. I’ve been wearing this shape for a while now..
❤️💖
Nice 👍
beautiful
Many many thanks
All great, but I don't really like russian forms of almonds because they are thick and heavy, not wearable and unnatural. Greg adjusted this one though 👏
Perfect ❤🔥😻
Thank you!! ❤️💖
Hi, Razor
Tks for yr guidelines. It's precise and SUPERB
Does young nails have other video instructions for other nail formats, such as, Butterfly, Edgeletto, Pipe, Razor, Dragon Stiletto edge, Cube, Triangle ?
Tkkkkkkssss
We recently did a tutorial for a pipe nail here: ua-cam.com/video/ddDZAbeSeaI/v-deo.html
Ich liebe diese Form 😍😍😍👌
Thank you!!
FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YUS QUEEN!!!!!
💖❤️
Finally I get it.
❤️💖
I have so much trouble with forms! I think I move the acrylic too much ?? Very informative, thanks! My daughter says my nail shape is outdated-i like square.
Not outdated it's classic!! Tell her it's a difference. Like wearing Diamonds it's always in!!🥰
You are so welcome! :-D Never out of style!!
@@youngnailsinc 🥰
Excellent job . Plz how it s done with gel builder ??? 🤔
Same way. All about correct form placement. Use your brush to sculpt the free edge make sure you don't apply to much gel at your free edge and clean excess gel from the nail form tip before curing. You can achieve a great C curve just with pinch the right places on your form.
is it hard to maintain this shape for multiple fills??
Oddly enough, my natural nail shape (cuticle to free edge) is a Russian Almond😂. I've always had a flat-ish curve to my nail bed. Nice to have a name for it other than someone smashed my apex"
Oh wow! A natural Russian almond, love it!
Are you able to create the same look with the c curve coffin or tips , than file the corner off ?
You can create a similar look with the coffin or stiletto tips since they have a similar c-curve. If you are using a straight/square tip, this would not give you the same shape and structure as needed for the almond nail.
@@youngnailsinc thank u 🙏🏼🫶🏼
LOVE this tutorial, especially how soft and feminine you’ve made this shape! Exceptional teaching skills and attention to detail as always Greg!! Could watch you work all day! Thankyou so much❣️🙏🏽❤️ Ps.. I’ve been trying to get your new dust collector on the UK website, but can’t find it anywhere? Would be very grateful if you could provide a link if possible please ☺️
Thank you so much! Unfortunately the dust collectors sold out quickly but stay tuned for updates on that soon!!
Love this shape but I always end up Angling the side walls from the pink to the free edge instead of keeping the free edge straight. Ugh 😣
❤️
There's a difference between Russian Almond and Russian Gothic. Gothic is more harsh in angles and more of a stilletto shape.
💯
First
❤️💖
Hello which training hand is this that you are using where can i get one
Hello Marissa! This is our Young Nails trainer hand, you can find it it on our site: www.youngnails.com
Can this shape be created over long natural nails?? 😢
A traditional almond shape can be done on a natural nail, but it is more challenging to turn a natural nail into a Russian almond because of the angle of the form and the structure of the c-curve.
💖yn
YN 💖 you
Hi bros
Try to tip a little downwards the form. Ll get a different result.
I’m sooo confused lol this looks just like a normal almond nail.. Russian almonds are way more like geometric looking with like sharp points and what not.. I’m not understanding how this is a Russian almond.. maybe am I missing something here? Can someone explain or help me understand pls and thank you lol
A regular almond has straight side walls when looking from the side, the bottom lines go straight out and the top line drops down (after the apex) to meet up with the side walls. With Russian styles the sidewalls (viewed from the side) go straight out but then arch upward to meet the tip so the top line of the nail can be straight. That's also why he tilted the form up. Russian styles have a more complex geometry from the side, the side walls arch up instead of the top line dipping down. The goal is a nail that goes straight out at the apex instead of curving back down like traditional shapes. That's the difference, the sharpness or roundness of the corners is up to preference 😉
I unverstanden u ... this is a very very soft Version of Russian Almond! For me it is also not a real Russian Almond Shape ... i love it when the Sidewalls are deeper and the Edges not so soft!
The American almond is more rounded in the middle, overall a. Orr dramatic look and closer shape to a real almond. This Russian version has a more more natural apex overall slimmer middle
@@hy3579 ok and thanks for ur answer and Info .... i don't know before, that there is a different between American Style and Europ Style .... every time we can learn more ....😉👍🏻
The sharp one is gothic nail
Second😂
❤️💖
Hold up Greg!!! What you trying to sell today. Those eyes are luring is into the screen. Is this a nail video or something else. You are out of control!!! Beautiful work as always!!!
👀 ❤️💖
How is this different from an almond shape? Never heard of Russian almond....
Traditional Almond form placed downward vs upward here creating straight high and lower arches
This doesn't look like a Russian almond 🤔 it should look more like a stiletto from the top view and the sides that angle up are a bit more exaggerated.
❤️💖
I was looking through the comments waiting for someone to point that out, this is a nice version but I was hoping for that point at the top and pointy tip 🥰
@@julieklobertanz2284 yeah honestly. This isn't even close lol
Извините конечно, я мастер из России, и это не Русский миндаль. Это обычный миндаль. Русский с вздернутым концом, больше похож на крокодила) Lacoste
Nice! looks like you've lost a little weight, and l thought this epidemic was supposed make people put weight on 😂!
😅
