I used to roll my eyes at my husband who would watch youtube tutorials for stuff we don't have. Well here I am, obsessed with Suzie and zero nail stuffs.
Lol
I watch them and I am allergic! LOL
Same. Haha but I did finally cave in an got a polygel kit to do my mom’s nails since she doesn’t want to go to a nail salon
@@RealMexFoodShouldntGiveUDrrhea omfg I'm crying at how funny your username is
thats a weird thing to roll your eyes about
It's been awhile since we've seen Suzie banish empty packages to the chaos realm over her shoulder. Missed it!
*t h e c h a o s r e a l m*
Ma'am how can I purchase this beautiful product in India??? I wanna to buy this product❤️❤️❤️take love from India 💕
Yesss! It cracks me up every time she does that
@@roxypicasso66 oooio I[m
"the chaos realm" I LOVE IT
When the duel form doesn’t fit your natural nail bed you can actually file down the form! I’ve been working with gel for awhile now and the forms didn’t fit my nails right so I filed the ends a bit, and now they fit much better!
I noticed that if you are using the forms as tips, and there is a gap, it's pretty easy to fill it with polygel and gently file. It really makes the nail sturdy. When you topcoat and or polish, it looks natural.
This is genius, I was wondering if that is something I can do, but want not sure if I should try so not to ruin what I have.
I do the same, I have pretty small and narrow nail beds and have to custom fit tips and dual forms
What would you do if it’s too small. For example my thumb poppit is too small just for my thumbs should I form them or still try to use the poppit?
Great idea!
I feel like Im getting a certificate by watching this. Very well done.
If only it was that easy 😩
I had to stop pause the video and comment on how well made this was. The clear explanations, different camera angels used, music choices, and overall your positive demeanor made this so pleasant.
I just wanted to say, I’ve watched hours upon hours and more hours of your videos on using poly gel, sculpting, shaping, prepping and using polygel with sculpting forms and I am just so happy that you are an amazing teacher, love your videos and thank you for helping me succeed at something so simply beautiful!
I just tried polygel for the first time this week and first started with tips. My nails are flat and I guess the c-curve was too strong and the tips wouldn’t sit right on my nails. I used dual forms instead and they turned out so much better. I’d love to see you do more polygel videos!
You should try regular forms too!
I've always loved when you throw items over your shoulder lol it's like, "I've got more important things to worry about".
Suzie, have you ever considered trying to put a sculpting form under the dual form? That way you would have shiny and clean surface both under and on top of the nail... Looking forward for a video if you ever decide to give it a try ❤️
this is how i do it. i also don't put the dual form gel all the way to the cuticle part and i sculpt that part on after so i have very minimal sculpting and filing to do.
@@laineydiamond yess thats Best way. But,I saw they first make 10 finger designs inside molds and cure , separate plastic ,than apply to nail plate ,but how? With gel ,polygel into the lampe or with glue. Your way I understand ,when you fill mold ,press to the nail and then cure and add gel around cuticle. But how to apply cured finished designs.
I can't believe how early I am! I just tripped and droped my lunch on the floor so this makes up for it!
Awe no that sucks I've done that before. Yes don't you just love her vids
@@courtneysha8004 yes! I do! I'm obsessed with Suzie's channel🤩💜💜
Courtney Sha love her channel 💓💓 xx
Personal experience: With forms, if you really don’t want to risk getting unnatural shaping at the cuticles, you can just use dual forma as an extention to the nail. Where you would place the dual form about 0.8 - 1cm away from the cuticle, and for it to become an extention based, just make the polygel a thin layer in the dual form. Then you would cure it for the ‘x’ seconds. Lastly ( for the whole structure), you get the polgel itself and build it on to the whole surface area of the nail ( which now includes the extension). However, for me, this process takes like an hour and a half. To do a whole set ( prep&build&coat/finish) without any designs but with the top coat is like a three hour process. So. I NEED A WAY TO DO THIS FASTER!
Omg this is an amazing idea! Thank you! I never thought of this. I've tried filing my forms but it's like the next time I go to use it they don't fit correctly anymore and I have to refile/get a new poppit. Plus with longer nails there's no apex so I have to add more anyways, so this is perfect omg I'm so excited to try it!!!! 😁
This is exactly the procedure my professional manicurist did.
This channel is what makes youtube. Idk what I would do without it! ❤
Hey Suzie,
Can you make a video taking about UV LED Lamps, some people have concerns about them. I wanna learn about them so I feel better using them. Thank you. Btw, I love watching your videos, they are very helpful.
Yes please! Lamps are so important. I’m yet to find the perfect lamp that’s not too expensive and woks the best. Cheap lamps take forever to cure and oh the heat spikes kills me
@@a101-j9i yes, agree the Nail Hub is amazing and where I've been getting the majority of my gel education as a DIYer. Super informative stuff there about lamps, and Suzie here has definitely mentioned also the importance of matching brands to prevent issues. Mixing and matching isn't going to kill you, but it could lead to not the best results with the curing.
Suzie also made one video about this topic in the past.
Ex tech here. The concerns ppl have is because of the UV. But the amount of UV you are getting is incredibly minimal. You get way more UV exposure from walking to your car.
I'd tell clients that they are welcome to put sunscreen on prior if that makes them feel better but even if you got your nails done weekly for your entire life you wouldn't have the same amount of exposure as walking to a mailbox and back.
This is also the beauty of LED light though which do not have any UV exposure and they cure faster. Most nail techs use led nowadays or hybrid lamps. So an even more miniscule amount.
There have been many research investigations as well into this if you do a small Google search.
@@juliaduquette7927 great to know, thank you so much for sharing!
Susie, between your calming voice, your expert knowledge, the music choices and cameraman’s impressive video and editing skills, yours have become my new favorite videos. Thank you for everything you put into these!
I have a kit coming in the mail! I love how in depth this is- it’s soooo helpful!! Thanks for posting :)
Any chance you have a link to the one you bought? They have a lot on Amazon and I am a bit confused.
Rapley do u use amazon USA or amazon Canada?i have some kits that I love just wanna send the right link for u!
FaZeRug g Amazon USA
Rapley k I’ll do it in a few hours
And all with just the utensils she got in the kit. Every other UA-cam video I saw they used so much extra stuff etc. which I don’t have 😂
Suzie is our fairy nail godmother !! Love her !!
I saw someone apply a paper form, then also apply a dual form. This made both the top and the underside super smooth. I'm going to try it!
What video was that from?
I bought this kit earlier this month and have had such a good time learning how to use it. I got it to avoid going out during Covid but I’m thinking I’ll continue to keep doing my own even when it’s more safe out. Thank you for your informative video!
How do you remove the product...just filing?
@@shelenashares3640 I THINK you can file off a little and then soak them off.
Shelena Shares I personally file mine all the way off. I tried soaking them off like acrylic and I just found it was way easier to file them. If you have an electric file even better. They’re a lot softer than acrylic so it’s not hard to do
@@crazyowlgirlcncowner Thank you!
@@CaraStrong13 Thank you! I am going to try the product! :)
Best nail education channel ever created on UA-cam 😘😘😘😘
You are very perceptive lol
Personal opinion (not a professional!!):
I like using forms for most medium-soft polygels and dual forms for the thickest polygels. That way you don’t have to push down on the paper forms too hard with the firmer polygels and they run out of the dual forms much less. 🤗
Halle Lowe YES. The thin or super soft polygel always leaks even when I put less in the dual form smh 😹
That actually makes sense!
@@keegy.weegy. Does it usually say on the package if it's soft or thicker polygel? Or is there a way to know it?
You were so calm and collective and very informative. It was a pleasure to learn from you I can't wait to learn more from you thank you.
Tip::: if u can’t find alcohol you can also use acetone and a slip or you can use the base gel! The slip solution that comes in the kit is made up of acetone and alcohol mixed!
Or Base gel? What do you mean?
I've been away for FAR TOO LONG. I have missed your face lol. I will now probably binge watch you until my kids get up from their nap. Thank you for still being here!
I just did my 1st set of poly gel nails the other day. Thanks to one of your videos I decided to try paper forms. It took me like 6 hrs to do them but they came out so good! Thanks for all of your videos, I enjoy them all.
Thats FABULOUS! Good for you❤️
For me too, it takes about 6h but i think it s cause i m beginer and too perfectionist, lol i think that with some experience we ll do fast and fast
Fellow Canadian! I love your videos Suzie. As a teacher myself, I can tell you that you're a great one! I absolutely LOVE the Gershian hybrid gel. I find it so easy to work with and its long lasting- so much so that I can usually just do a refill with this. Thank you for ALL of your videos! You're a pleasure to watch and learn from.
Wow her videos are so calming and she talks about even the tiniest things
I haven't done my nails since my wedding day. Watching you is not only relaxing but educational. This video gave me the push to try polygel for the first time. You made it seem so flawless and easy i just had to try for myself. I am so pleased with the results! This was fun! Makes me feel so beautiful 😍. Thank you for your tips and tricks!
I used to watch your acrylic videos so much to the point that I bought my own at home kit for them. Now years later, I’m coming back after purchasing a polygel kit. You’re always so informative and helpful, and I love the way you deliver information to your viewers! Thank you so much!
Have you tried using a “paper form” like you did BUT instead of adding another ball of polygel on top, do a blob of gel in a poly poppit and apply that ontop then cure it again. You get smooth blend under neath from the “paper form” plus smooth top from using poppit. Just file your edges and tips....try it. Xxxxx
I tought the exact same thing🤣
That's what I plan on doing when my kit arrives.
Bro just tried this after reading your comment. GAME CHANGER!!! Holy shit I just did one nail in like less than 5 minutes. Apex is perfect and all. Thank you!
Not all heros wear capes 👏
I WAS GONNA SAY “what if u use…both” also i’m so late lmaoooo 😭💅🏻
Ive been watching various videos of yours for a couple years now and taught myself nails from watching you. Ive been using builder gel and the soft forms for about a year. I recently bought a polygel kit which had the clear hard forms in there and had no idea what to do with them, so ive just been using my paper forms. Thanku for clearing up for me what they are for. Once i saw what you did i thought duh that makes sense. Lol
The min she threw the first box I was hooked🤣
You have the most calming voice. If you joined headspace insomnia would be a thing of the past.
Thank you for this amazingly educational video!
I feel pretty lucky I have been doing my own nails for about 3 weeks or something and I learned that you should just hold the form down but start pressing it down under the cuticle if you pushed your cuticle back you can start by putting the bottom of the form precisely where u want the nail to start at your natural nail if you hold it on while curing it after about 30 seconds you can stop holding it but cure it for 60 seconds! I hope that helped.
I am a complete newbie to polygel, dual forms, paper forms. I watched hours of polygel nail videos before deciding to buy my kit (different brand). I haven't done my nails in years and that last time I did was dip powder. I love the polygel! I did a french mani. I love how it turned out with the paper forms. I did the 90s Squoval. The paper form hand looks just like the Acrylic french mani I was inlove with back then. The dual form.... not so much and have already had to buy an efile and removed so much product and will be starting over soon on that hand. 0 regrets 😊
I’m ordering a whole bunch of poly gel and materials to practice thanks for the help
Good luck 👍 are you going to use dual forms? Or tips or sticker forms
Please accept my profound thanks for making this video. So many impoetant things they don't tell you in the instructions! It makes TOTAL sense to wait, and the gel in turn sets in the form a little before putting it on the nail bed. THANKYOU!
I’ve always loved your videos because you always use what the product come with in its own packaging. And you really do step by step. I can watch you while I’m doing my own nails. And your so warm and cozy almost like my own family.
Susie, It looked as though the Poppit was a bit too square at the cuticle for your nail. Can't you just file the sq corners a bit, 'til they are the shape of your cuticles, therefore eliminating the little ridge at the cuticle? 💅
She did at her other nail
That sounds like a good idea
I’ve seen that done in other channels.
i’ve done that before and it works great!! especially because my cuticles are really oval-shaped, it helps to clean that area up a bit :)
You definitely can 💜
Love the way you show every single step why explaining and doing it rather than fast forward or explain after the process. Also love how calm and collected u are. Thank you so much for sharing this great helpful videos. I can’t wait to try to do my own nails by following every single step u do :)
Omg! About three to four years ago, I was obsessed with doing my nails and watching your videos! Just recently I've gotten back in the nail grove, and your videos bring back so many memories
I never comment on youtube videos but I had to mention that this is the most calming video to me! Her voice is lovely.
Its like unintentional asmr haha She'd make a great asmr youtuber tho!
Omg Suzie thanks. you are amazing😘😘😘
And those reveal shots **chefs kiss**
You are awesome. I loved how you showed everything! Your so pretty too. Great voice. Loved how natural they looked. You are truly blessed. Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've done sculptured acrylic nails for years and want to try poly gel. I feel very confident after watching you. Thanks baby girl!
Full size tubes? Yes please! Can't wait to see you demo all of them (even the vampy red). 💕
This is the best hybrid gel video I've seen. I wish i would have known it existed back when I first started using it. The one thing i had problems with was knowing how thick to make it on the pop it form. I also have always had it squish out. I must have pushed it on too hard. I'll watch it again when i decide to go back to using this product. Thanks.
I just got my polygel kit and have no idea what to do. Thank god you just posted. Love you girl ❣️
UA-cam has soo many great videos, her channel is 1 of the best
You should watch longhairprettynails
Have you tried it out yet?!
NovaKnowsBeauty yes. They turned out very good thanks to this video. :).
Ordered a polygel set weeks ago been watching thousands of tutorials while waiting for it now its here and I don't know where to start...just found your video and it's been the best help thank you so much
I love using the 123 go soft gel with polygel they’re so strong and amazing! I don’t think I’ll ever go back to tips or forms with polygel
Suzie I did nails for years and loved it. I now have RA and can not do like i did. The tips and help you have given to me has me doing mine again. Thank you so very much. You have given your talent to us from your heart and all I can do is say thank you.
4 minutes in n I already know this is gonna be the best polygel tutorial I've ever seen
Aly H I am binge watching all of them!! Shes the best!!!
Best nails tutorial
I literally searched to see if Susie had this exact video yesterday. I must be psychic
Me too! Yesterday I went through her old videos to find this 😱
Or she is 🤔 lol
@@MystiDawn yeah 😂
This is so relaxing to watch
I love you so much
Thank you for lowering the music while you speak to make your words clearer. I'm attempting this for a wedding I'm attending and really appreciate your clear, simple directions with camera mans tip top work. I've got some practicing ahead😊
my nail beds are so flat and wide I couldn't use the dual forms. I even tried those clips.I use paper forms now and my sculpting is getting better and betterrrr
Half a year ago I saw this video and decided to buy this kit. I was hesitant to do my own nails, since I do a lot with my hands work wise and as a occupational hazard I was always breaking nails I got done at salons. Not mutch to do with the nail technician, my friends who go to the same lady have no problems. Haha it's me 😂 anyway! now I'm going crazy with my nails! I do a lot of work with my hands so I need to be able to remove or make my nails shorter, or fix them anytime. Thanks to your tutorials I can do so, and most importantly I can do so safely! thanks Suzie!
Received my first kit in the mail around 8pm ... now it is close to midnight and I just watched this video... and I am so excited about it that I could jump out of bed and go try this on right now 🤭
Thank you suzie for this amazing video 💕
That was truly impressive. There is a reason nail techs get paid to do your nails. It takes some serious skill. I can’t image doing my right hand with my left hand. I am right handed! SKILLS!!!!
You’re so awesome for going into this kind of depth and detail! Totally feels achievable and understandable, thank you!
Absolutely love these videos! The camera presence, the patience, support, information, everything! Your nails are absolutely beautiful, Suzie.
I've never been more enamored with a busty middle aged woman in a cardigan with an endless supply of reading glasses chucking plastic package innards over her shoulder. You're spectacular!! Thank you so much for your patience, your willingness to share your knowledge and for reviewing items for all budgets. I hope UA-cam pays you enough so you can enjoy your life and keep your glasses supply stocked. I'll be buying your products. PS-love the fairy lights. Thanks again!
You described her as " A busty middle aged woman" If I were her and I read that description..no.matter how accurate it might be, I would be a little insulted.
Perhaps you could rather have described her as a voluptuous, wise woman with a flair for the ironically dramatic...or as a spitfire, a pistol..
...or ???
From ready g your comment it is obvious that you DO have a gift..a talent..a way with words..You are obviously a writer...so..from one who welds the pen to another..I say..use your craft..and do better grasshopper..do better.
Been a while since Susie popped up on my screen always love seeing her. The first professional to teach me about nails 🥰
Suzie I know you feel like you've done these videos to death, but we just love your videos and need more!
I keep going back to old videos and watching them over and over.
Me too
Me too
Hey Suzie,
Can you make a video taking about UV LED Lamps, some people have concerns about them. I wanna learn about them so I feel better using them. Thank you. Btw, I love watching your videos, they are very helpful.
@@audrawintheiser8628 she did do one on UV lamps. Check back in her videos.
I’ve used the dual forms to build my acrylic nails one at a time with a slow monomer then applied them. They were solid as all get out and worked great for me.
Susie! I have puffy cuticles, and am having trouble keeping product from seeping! Ice never been good a polishing. Could you please do a video on how to deal with puffy cuticles??
I didn’t see anyone else mention it but sorry if I missed it and am repeating, the lip at the cuticle that annoys you can be avoided by running the gel thinner at the cuticle part of the form and using CLIPS to hold so it doesn’t slip. It s the way you move it back into place multiple times that is building the product back up at the cuticle. Once you place form and put on a nail clip (buy on Amazon) don’t move the form again, just don’t touch or manipulate anymore at all. Place it one and done. I love your videos and you are amazing! Hope this tip helps your dual for.m game. Xoxo
Thank you! I purchased this kit and I’m enjoying playing with it. With your video, I can “fix” what I have been doing wrong!! Yay!! ❤️
I absolutely love this women’s videos. The voice, the nails, the info. It’s all so calming and satisfying. Makes me believe I can actually do this 😂
I would LOVE to see you do a tutorial with the Gelish Polygel! I am constantly getting lifting with it and cannot figure out why!
Revisit your prep. Tips:
•don’t wash your hands before you polish
•don’t just use a buffer use 180 grit
•don’t put on smooth surface
•you can use a primer to help adhesion
•don’t touch mail with yr finger
•apply thinly NOT thick
•make sure lamp is compatible with polish
💛suzie
I love the nail that you sculpted with paper much better ❤
SUUUUUUUZIE! I'm here on time and my husband has been out for walks with me and the small dog. His ticker is no longer dicky! Thank you for always explaining things so clearly without sounding patronising. You not only inform us HOW to do something, but also WHY. xxx
Not only you make my husband relax and fall asleep fast🙄you made my two year old baby girl fall asleep so peacefully 🤔 now momma can watch your videos and enjoy 😂kisses from Croatia😘
Love your videos!! Your personality is awesome makes them very enjoyable! Can you please do an update on how well this brand of hybrid gel works?? Thank you!
Your videos have been so helpful! I decided to jump in headfirst to nail art and I have no plans to look back.
I just did my first set of diy polygel nails. They aren't perfect but I'm not mad about it either!
I did mines with dual forms but I want to try with sticker forms. What did you use?
@@marianalopez3132 i did dual forms. I don't have an efile tho, so that cuticle is hard to do without one!! I cut my cuticle area a few times. (Ouch! 🤪) Im working on paper forms, Suzy makes it look so easy!! But im having a really hard time. I don't like the curve of dual forms so id prefer sticker forms!!
@@heyitsjustme.680 You know you can get dual forms with almost no curve? Have a look on eBay, Wish, AliExpress etc... That's where I've seen options of various curvature.
@@ithulah i didn't know! Thank you! So I just search "straight dual forms" or are they called something different?
@@heyitsjustme.680 I don't like my cuticle area with the dual forms I also don't have an efile 😭😭 I'm going to try next time with the sticker forms
Susie, your shaping technique is beautiful and very recognizable! I swear I could identify your work on anyone. Signature work is an amazing accomplishment and rare.
The editing in your videos is always so flawless!
I ordered a kit similar from Amazon, I tried several times and couldn’t get the results I wanted so i planned on returning it until I decided to try one more time and came across your video and they turned out perfect!! Thank you SO much. You’re a lifesaver!
Apply a regular nail form before you add the pop-it and you get a smooth finish on both sides 😊
I'm brokeee af but I want to do my nailsss 😩and the nails are looking good
I started doing my nails about 2 months ago, and was scared I would never be able to actually do it myself. I watched a lot of your videos, and just decided to build over my natural nail. My friends didnt even notice i did them myself!!! I thought that was a compliment! Anyway, the first fell off after 3 days. I redid it, than after 11 days everything fell off after showering... i didn't have forms so I used a sticky note with ducttape to build 2,5 cm almond nails. I switched from slip to 96% rubbing alcohol, and build 3 cm nails. I have done 3 sets as of today, and found I am already really good at it. My teachers and friends all come up to me every week to check if I have already redone them. I am even doing friends nails now for fun! Anyway, wanted to thank you for your videos about hybrid gel; they really helped me!
Omg thank you for this vid !! My nails stayed on but after a week 1/2 they just popped off... not sure what I did wrong. 😲
You have to make sure to prep the nail properly before any type of application. Push back cuticles, lightly buff natural nail, remove dust, wipe the nail with acetone to remove any dust germs and oils from the nail plate and if possible use a bonder. Young nails protein bond awesome product!
I’m so quick to click on the quick tutorials , and find myself loving the look , but not learning anything . This time around , I decided to click on this , and really pay attention and as I’m towards the end, I’m super excited to order the kit and go to town with what I just learned from you !!! ❤️❤️❤️
Omg yessss I was waiting for this one TURN IT UPP
Remember when I learnt fiberglass, iv bn doin polygel, i like the forms, and its more of a challenge 2 get the shape right, but i only ever did 2 forms, and was very pleased with the results, ur my favourite nail tech,❤p iv never trusted any since i had my hands hurt😢
I love ❤️ all the Gershion polygels and their new extension gel in tubes too 😍 and I never use dual forms.. I hate how they look and the messy spillage with em. I always use paper forms but not these 😋 I use rubbing alcohol for slip solution or now just started using base gel as a slip solution. It works super good and better. 😁 was shocked it works.
Suzie.. u always have great nails and vids 😉
💜🦋💜🦋💜🦋💜🦋💜
Oh and when I have used dual forms I only use em to just make a nail tip base shape .. kinda like a actual nail tip nails from the plastic nail tips.. then I cure that and will file it gently to shape and actually then build and sculpt the nail like normal. 😋 works pretty good 😁
Which sticker dual forms do you use?
Base gel as slip? 🤔 That's fascinating, I'm going to try that next time! It kinda makes sense, it's just something to keep the hybrid gel from sticking to the bristles. Thanks! 🌸
Elzanne Nel
Ya I only learned about this method from Jamie at Babygirlnails 😊
Gershion is amazing, and I love that new extension gel too!
I do videos and use my own hand (but only my left)... the extension gel is what I keep on my right hand since getting it a few months ago.
I just wanted you to know Suzie that I stumbled upon your channel today and it has brought me so much bittersweet joy. My mom owned and operated her own salon and specialized in acrylic application. She passed away a few weeks ago from breast cancer and you remind me so much when she would teach me techniques and do my nails as a little girl. I can’t wait to try hybrid gel out on my own, I know mom would’ve absolutely loved the ease and user-friendliness of this stuff!
Awwwww CHEERS to your mom 🥂 cheers to my fellow nail tech - memories you will cherish ❤️❤️❤️thank you for sharing
This was my absolute favorite. I have done the one with the plastic shape where you get a lot of rough acrylic on the bottom and that was challenging for me. The one where you use the sticker I am most excited about because I received my stickers yesterday. I hope I can use the powder acrylic with this. I use your videos to learn. I just do them for myself. Thanks for your insight, time, and for being you. Have a great one. Just subscribed. Idk what took me so long
Hi! I just wstched someone on UA-cam use both forms in conjunction to make the underside of the dualform really smooth. It was really cool to see since I am just an at home DIYer without a nail drill. I've jyst been watching all kinds of tutorials and had to check out your suggestions. Love your work and just ordered your forms from your shop. Have a great day and be blessed!
I remember in one of your older videos you said that you can file the cuticle end of the pop its to fit your cuticle shape.
I just tried dual forms but had to remove them as I now learned after watching your video you aren't supposed to press hard. I pressed hard and removed the excess, but it looked like sht and was way too thin too. Going to be using your video now! Thank you!
I would love to see a review on the new Makartt Qikgel! It’s supposed to be like builder gel but in a tube? Too easy to be true!
Gershion has a very similar product and I love it!
I have a video up on that one 💜
I love the way she teaches
I absolutely love your shape! I always aim for the “Suzie shape” 💜
Thank you so much for the slow and proper educational video for ME!! I was so confused now I got it and will be doing my first set now as we speak!! I also subscribed
I've been playing around with polygel for a few months and I absolutely love it! I have no nail experience yet I found these so easy to use. I tried the duel forms at first, and then once I became more confident with it I moved on to plastic tips and now I am doing them with paper forms for that ultra customised feel. The only downside to polygel is that it has to be filed off. If it could soak off, it would be the perfect product for us newbies!
Can I use normal full coverage plastic tips to form my gel?
Agree
Huh, I've always been able to soak off my hybrid gel 🤔. I do file it down most of the way and take the length down, then use acetone to soften any remaining product... I wonder if different brands are able to be soaked off and other aren't?
@@gwenhorases6422 I use polygel to glue on the tips, cure, then add more polygel to sculpt the nail and edge of the tip. Then use gel topcoat to seal everything together.
@DaniCal1forn1a mine specifically says soak off ( morovan )
Thank u! My cuticles are horrendous at the end cuz I push down really hard. I discovered what works for me is I use the forms and the stickers so that way the polygel isn't all thick and swallow my nails underneath but still keep the form on top with the forms and gives it a better thickness. That's just what I discovered worked best for me.
absolutely loved this video. the speed at which you explain each step was perfect and clear.
I have learned that pop-its are not my friend! No matter what I do, they're a nightmare underneath. Thank goodness for tips!!!
Same!!
Same it was a mess
I'm wondering if it would work to put a paper form, then use the dual form. It would essentially sandwich the poly gel between the two forms, and in theory, it would be super smooth on both sides, right? Lol as soon as I get a chance, I'm going to try it!
@@MystiDawn omg, Mysti!!!! 🤯🤯🤯
I seriously never even thought of that...what a great idea!!! OMG let me know what happens!
@@emilyhollis4231 I most definitely will keep you updated on how it works!
