“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
Karen, you are so helpful and I can tell how much you care about your clients and about us. My fave thing you do is after you explain something, you very quietly say, " 'kay?" It's so sweet bc it's like you're directly talking to me and want to make sure I understand. 😘
Thank you so much for sharing all these amazing tips and tricks!! I’ve learned so much from y’all’s content! I get excited when I see a new upload from YN! 🤷🏻♀️💜😊
❤️
This is fantastic thank you. I never realized I was whipping my file which was causing the tip of my nails to be uneven so I'd have to add extra gel on the tip to fix it. Now I'll watch what I'm doing
❤️
Bless these videos 🤣🤣 I've been feeling a lot of wrist pain the past few months... probably because I was filing improperly lol I really love these tips!
YN Nail school shaped me to be where I am today thank you 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
❤️
Thank you so much for sharing these game changing pro shaping tips! My fav was when you said to “Use your whole arm” Thanks for saving my wrist! 👍🏾🤑
the whipping of the file is so me. i was wonderimg why one side oft nail would be uneven. thanks for all the tips. You guys are simply amazing.
❤️
THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU 🎉
Excellent summary! Continue to drop skill nuggets! I am trying to collect and share them all!
❤️
This was so informative, especially looking at the nail from the clients view and down the barrel from the other side. You really can see every bump that way
Thank you Karen for those tips! I always learn something new!! 😻
Surprised this doesn't have more views, these are some life changing tips
Wow I'm actually learning so much about filing nails. I have some idea about filing but I've noticed a lot of things I've been doing wrong 🤦🏾♀️ but is never too late to learn something new lol
Ah my local salon seems to use 100 grit a lot for shaping acrylics and stuff, but when it came to removal time they used the same hand file on my natural nails to shape and also sort of buff the top before applying strengthener. As a result, my thumb nails especially seem to have sort of split in places. It did do a good job at filing down the length and getting a good shape on the natural nail but I did have more issues on the first removal perhaps where the tips of my nails were breaking a lot or had lots of chipping. Using more cuticle oil now
Thanks for sharing!

I worked in construction for 8 yrs so I learned the grits first off.. My first gig was building sanding and staining an arondeck chair b4 they got popular
❤️
To remove the natural nail shine from the nail you should use a 240-grit file. I usually take off more than i should but if that 240-grit will work that would be great! Thank you, Karen
We use our 150 grit sanding band to remove shine from the natural nails. We use a low speed of 3,000-5,000 rpms and very light pressure.
Thank you! The next time I will order some sanding bands and give then a try!
Omg I whip all the time I was asking yall y my nails come out so deformed lol ty for this video
❤️
❤️
❤️
omg whipping that file. that's why my side always looks crazy on the right side. karen is there any way to fix this after you have done that or just make the other side match?!?!? lol
Other than making the other side match, you can always add product back on and re-file the nail
#yngiveaway My favorite nail products!
This video is very helpful because I sometimes still struggle with holding the nail file. Thank you for share these amazing tips and tricks❤!! #YNGiveaway
Awesome Video...but is using an old file sanitary to rub against the new one?
We recommend having one file designated as your “prep file.” This would be a file that has not been used on a person, but only used for prepping new files & bits. Depending on your state board, you may be able to store this file and continue to use it for prepping your files until it is worn out.
@@youngnailsinc great advice!
Had a manicure with short french style last night and I got 7 cuts on 6 fingers some at the cuticle on top and some at the corners of the nail where the underskin meets it. All the sides of the nails where the nail grows out at the corners were filed when she was filing and so those area are either cut or raw and when she put the acrylic tips on those nails; they were glues down to the skin including those cut areas. My fingers are sensitive and painful. Putting water on my hands burn and continues burning for a while after it dries. I don't want to soak them off with Pure acetone because the cuts are there. What can I do to pull the crazy glue away from the skin under the nails? Help?!
Unfortunately it sounds like the tech didn't remove the sharp edges of the file before using it on you. The biggest concern with getting cut would be to make sure they don't get infected. If the cuts don't seem to heal properly, we would recommend consulting with your healthcare provider. In the mean time, you may want to use an over the counter antibacterial product on them (some products have numbing agents that can help with the pain/sensitivity). Keep the skin hydrated with cuticle oil and this can also help break the bond between the glue and the skin. You can also try using acetone on a cotton swab to try to remove some of the glue. This way you can keep it away from the cuts.

Thank you for posting this! #sadgirlcharm

Is there a chair that is the most comfortable for the client? Bc that's the hardest part for me, they lean back in the chair and I can't grab their hand ✋ properly. I struggle with them . I need to get a new client chair.
Choosing a technician chair or client chair is going to be different for every technician since we all have different size/shape/height of tables. If you are concerned about your client moving or leaning back, you may want to look for a chair that does not have wheels or tilts back. Feel free to post this question to our Facebook Community group and there may be other technicians that can show you what chairs work for them in your same situation.

Could do make a video to do the filing on yourself please
We have some great videos here of working on our non-dominant hand.
She is saying tooo much okay 😂😂
What if you don’t have an old file?
We recommend having one file designated as your “prep file.” This would be a file that has not been used on a person, but only used for prepping new files & bits. Depending on your state board, you may be able to store this file and continue to use it for prepping your files until it is worn out.
@@youngnailsinc Thank you so much! I live in the UK. At present my aim is to do my nails only :-) Again, thank you so much for creating this channel, the videos are extremely helpful!
First❤️🙌🏽

I'm a feeler. I pick my files by just feeling them. Does anyone else do that?
I cut myself so many times by missing this step, I didn’t even notice until after my set was done 😩

Another one of your guys’ videos said to use your wrist. So don’t use your wrist?
You can use your wrist, but you just want to make sure you aren't OVER using it. If the only motion you are using is from the wrist, you will wear out your wrist very quickly. Use more of your elbow for the back and forth motion.
