Nice girl i just ordered the large mystery box ugh i hope i get this eeee cant wait i did get the B box and got a bunch of mani Q gel polish love the colors next i wanna do The A box lol love it
Yes i did i ordered there trail kits first to try it out i absolutely love there products That's pretty much all i use on my clients. And if she watches Greg's tutorials hes an awesome teacher
The time taken to explain the process without yammering is what I've been looking for. Greg's explanation is direct and succinct, easy to understand paired with the visual is the Peak of learning. Thank you Salo family for the time you put into making sure we are getting the best nail education.
I use your system all day every day and love it especially #4 it never disappoints I don’t think two coats is enough I find I need to use the clear in the beginning and over the top and my clients do great
Thank you so much @youngnails! It's wonderful to have a library of application videos at my fingertips! I did NOT remember that the top coat brush needs to be wiped prior to putting it back into the bottle 🤩
Thank you, Greg!! Thanks YN! For covering this tutorial step by step with pointers inbtwn. 🤗 I bought the trial over a year ago and it was an epic fail...😩 So she's been safely put away out of sight / out of mind. Now that I'm back (long story) to be able to do nails, I'm finding myself and my specialty / concentration for nails and I know I cannot be around monomer but for so long. So at this point I want to be more of a gel tech with other capabilities while occasionally using monomer. 🤗 I'm very happy being a gel tech with all of it's availability but I do know myself and I want wide ranges of my specialty to prevent boredom....and then it recently happened...💡💡💡....I remembered I had your trial kit in my collection and jump into your dip powder play list for encouragement. After watching this one several times I finally build up the courage to try again.....🤔🤔🤔 And success!!!! They look so pretty!! 🥳 I didn't realize how hard they can be which gives me insurance that it's a great acrylic/ non monomer needed sub. 🤗 And I did learn that I can use your gel as well instead of resin...which is great because that resin system can also give me a headache as well so im soooooo glad you guys made a tutorial about using gel instead of resin. 🤗🤗🤗 You guys are really awesome. Thank you for teaching us on how to use your products correctly and not just leaving it up to us to figure it out. I really can't wait to be able to jump into this career full time. I'm currently under a 2-year hair contract at a salon so that's giving me a jump start to build up my nail skills and clientele so that I can get my own booth after. I'm ready for this change for soo many reasons. Plus I get to finally sit for work 😂. I'm soo excited. You guys will officially be my main supplier 💯💯💯 trust. I'm purchasing little by little to learn how to use your products and then I'm all in. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Confidence level increased!!! 🥳🥂✌🏾♥️💅🏾💅💅🏼
Hello !! Can you make a tutorial using the ones with glitter? I'm having hard time on the cuticle area and how you protect the glitter when you file the top to smooth it out, thank you guys, love u
@@Pocketpebbledesigns thanl you😃, but the cuticle area doesn't looks clean for the big glitters, I do put clear powder on top and still some of the glitters get filled out 😑
@@mariaherrera877 ok so try adding a very thin layer of acrylic, add the glitter and then add the clear thicker coat on top of clear. You should be able to shave it down and not touch the glitter.

Great video. I like using base better. For me it is easier and faster. Thank you for sharing all this information. You are a great teacher. Thank you again. Take care.
😐..usually For step 4 of the application I don’t usually clean the brush before going back in to the bottle... the only times I do wipe the bristles is at the end of each service. So far I’ve been working without any problem :) .. thank you so much for showing us your awesome skills!
Great video, I’m new to doing my own dip powder. I have issues with my powder getting glumpy and too thick. Then when buffing my color comes off in areas. I watched your video and think I got it now. I will be doing my nails this weekend and see how it goes. I will have this video on to help me with every step. Just a fantastic video, every step explained fully. Thank you so much .
I wish I found you back in February! Wound up with dip and a gel for repairs they "work" ok but am graduating to your gel when it ships. Living for protein bond no lifting and I'm a heavy lifter
Can you guys do a video with dip/resin & some gel nail art on top? Doesn’t have to be anything crazy. Like hearts or simple flowers or something. Just so I can make sure I’m doing it the best way to prevent chipping/dulling ☺️
I just had an epiphany. Not sure if it will work but what if...... you have a container that separates into 2 pieces, the bottom is an empty cup/bowl, the other part is a container with a removable skaker top that holds your powder. Ok? So you'd be able to grab your color choice, remove the lid which also serves as your bowl and flip it over. Now instead of messing with a spoon, which is another tool to pick up and set down, you use the shaker that already has the powder in it. Once you're done with all ten nails, you remove the shaker lid from the part that contains your powder, dump all the loose powder that collected in the bowl back into the shaker assembly, put the shaker lid back on the shaker then the bowl/lid back on the whole thing. I wish you could see the picture I have in my head because I think it would be pretty awesome. Same product, same system, just a different way of storing and using the powders. It's already in a plastic container, let's make the plastic container functional
I get what you're saying. Like a loose mineral powder/mineral foundation container. Very smart! You can probably purchase some and transfer your product yourself. Great idea!
Hi guys! I watch all of your videos and I have learned a ton! I really love them. My question is, I noticed you didn't seal the cuticle are when you filed. Is this not necessary? Thank you for all you do for us!
Thank you for YNs explanation and expertise. Question. What if you want a barrier between the slick pour and natural nail so when doing the rebalance you don’t have to file all the way through?
How will you make this system a matte color instead of the glossy look? Can you do an ombré this this system? If so please do a tutorial of it. I will truly appreciate it. You guys are the boom 🙌💞
@@ithinkicanmakethat6294 I know but when doing a sale do expect this,however I don’t mind waiting I didn’t get a tracking since I ordered so who won’t be concerned 😟 it’s more than a week
We recommend pricing your services so you would be making the same "per hour" whether it is a full set, gel manicure, or dip service. We do suggest that you charge the same for any full set/extensions whether it's acrylic, hard gel or dip.
thank you for this video! so why do some dipping systems require a clear and/or base coat of powder? also is it normal that the odor from the resin causes our eyes to burn? thanks so much!
We have right and left handed bits that you would use in forward. If you are using one of our bits that does not specify a direction, then it can be used for both. In that case, you would use the bit in forward when holding in your right hand and reverse when in your left.
Hi Greg!! I took my I pad to work with me did the slick our step by step with you. Everything came out great except the top coat. 1st coat dried like you said orange skin did another coat and it dried dull. I did another coat same thing. What did I do wrong? Thank you!!
If you want to do a chrome application, you can skip step 4 (top coat). Just file the surface of the application with a 150 grit file, cleanse and apply a coat of Protein Bond and then Ultimate Finish for your chrome application.
How do I avoid lumps/bumps with dip? It seems like I always have it near my cuticles and it's not flat or smooth as if I got them done at a salon. I usually wipe one side of the base brush on the inside of the bottle and leave the other side of the brush "full" of liquid to be able to use on my nails. I typically start the brush in the middle of my nail, drag it down toward the free edge, and push up and fan out toward my cuticle. But still end up with lumpy/bumpy nails. How can I stop it?
I am finding my base and top are getting really thick..too thick to use properly any longer. I have hardly used them and wiped my brushes after each use before going back in the bottle just like you describe...any way to save my products or am I stuck getting new product?
Hello does your resin have a strong glue smell, like crazy glue smell, because when I use other dip liquids the base smell is so strong it gives me “dip flu”.
All of our products are FDA approved for safe use when used according to the proper procedures. As with any chemical, over exposure or "flu" symptoms can result from excess contact with the skin/soft tissue or not using the products in a properly ventilated work space.
Thank you for the great and informative video. If I decide to substitute #4 with a gel topcoat, do I still need to go back in and use #3 again after filing?
After applying the activator, wait until the nail is set and then file with a 150 hand file to shape and remove shine. After that, dust it off, apply one coat of Protein Bond and then your gel top coat.
I thought the protein bond does not mix well with the Base? I've been getting clients that is coming back with chips on the tip of their nails after a few days. And I was using protein bon just like how you described to do when substituting with gel topcoat
If you are sensitive to the resins, we would recommend using the Conversion Gels as an alternative. Here's a video that will show you the procedure ua-cam.com/video/sqMtfNWv0Yc/v-deo.htmlsi=UqTkvPRq7qQSx_Jo
Our slickpour (dip powders) work in a variety of ways. They can be used with a 4 step resin system, with our monomer for acrylics, with our conversion base and top to convert into gel or mixed with out hard gel for custom colors. You can also use it for sugaring over gel polish. We will link some videos below: RESIN: ua-cam.com/video/ReXNd_8dOF4/v-deo.html MONOMER: ua-cam.com/video/nea515s3bV8/v-deo.html CONVERSION: ua-cam.com/video/sqMtfNWv0Yc/v-deo.html HARD GEL: ua-cam.com/video/udS6a--qCKI/v-deo.html
Unfortunately, we can't speak on using our products with other brands as we don't test them. You can always give it a try and see how they turn out and tag us so we can see your work😊 Also, you can ask in our facebook group and see if any one else has experience using them together.
I recommended your products to my sister, I'm a nail tech but I live far away... She has a really hard time with things adhering to her nails! Can your protein bond be used with the system to give an even better adhesion? Ty!
Hello! Quick question, if my client wants a gel top coat vs the #4 top coat is that okay? I was thinking the conversion top coat would be my choice. Any clarity would be great. Thank you!
You can use a gel top coat as long as you file the surface of your enhancement with a 150 grit file, cleanse it & apply a coat of Protein Bond. Conversion Top would work great!

Do you have a system where powder that has come in contact with one client is not used on any other person? Even pouring the powder over the nail and letting it go back in the original container can and likely does cause contamination. I am looking for a system that reduces wasted product but has no cross contamination with the powder.
You can actually put just enough in a small dish for that clients service. Here’s a great video that shows that. ua-cam.com/video/5baLstPXOJI/v-deo.html
I got mystery box slickpours as well I've never used the dip system have questions how do we extend if client wants length added to natural nails? how does it work with fills is it easy to remove does it file off easy or soak each time ? not sure if I want to add this service seems like alot of steps. what is the advantage of using this compared to acrylic or gels? thanks for any advice.
Yeah agree, you can't really fill this product has to be soaked off. And yes you can use it with extension tips but doesn't come out as smooth as his application. You really have to do a few more layers so that you can file it into shape and get an apex, it is quite lumpy. I think you need more than the 2 layers he used anyway as it cracks if it's too thin. I use 3-4 layers especially if they are long nails.
The Slick Pour powders are acrylic powder, they are just more finely ground so they get good color consistency as a dip product. So if you prefer to just use them as a normal acrylic with monomer, that's completely ok. If you are wanting to build an extension as a dip service, you would have to apply a tip and then do the dip process over that. You can fill as a dip service, but depending on the color you are wanting to fill with, you may have to completely remove the previous color. For example, if you have red dip on the nail and want to change to blue, you would have to remove all of the red. But if you have red on and want to keep that same red, you can just fill in the cuticle area with that same color. Depending on your comfort level with the efile, dip product can be filed off with the Safety Bit-Coarse or it can be soaked off with acetone.
I got my mystery box with all these colors, the sad part was they were spilled all over, not all of it but quite few of the products, also I ordered a gel and the lid that came with it is broken from the side, I hope this doesn’t affect it in the long run ☹️☹️ I’ve ordered from young nails before and nv had this happen 🤷♀️
We are sorry about that! We will give you the details for our customer service team and they will be able to help you out with that. Contact customer service at 1.800.777.9170 or by email at info@youngnails.com
Protein bond is a non acid primer.. it doesn’t chemically etch the nail like a traditional primer does. Protein stays sticky.. sticks to the natural nail and then sticks the product.
Guys, I was thinking about buying the slick pour kit, but I wanted to wait till my mystery boxes arrived before ordering-the slick pour kit is not available anymore on your website 😭. Is the slick pour kit no longer available? I have not gotten my black friday order yet either, it's still waiting to be packaged 😭😭 Kicking myself for not ordering the slicker kit right now!
@@chere1991 I ordered the mystery boxes, I couldn't decide on buying the slick pour kit, I looked at their website today but didn't see it available. 😭 Yes, I couldn't wait for my order to arrive and I looked on Facebook...I am excited and happy at what is in the boxes! Can't wait to get mine! It shipped today!
Hi! Does anyone know if slickpour needs to be soaked off for removal or can we treat it like a gel overlay and just take it down and add a color change on top?
Yes, just make sure if you are using it over tips, you need to create a little more structure through the apex/stress area. If you use them over a sculpted nail, use them sparingly or thin layers so the nail does not get too thick.
Yes, but make sure you have filed the surface with either a 150 grit file or the medium arbor band and apply a coat of Protein Bond before the Ultimate Finish to help the adhesion.
Just ordered this system! I cant wait to try it!!! I appreciate you being here and educating us! Thank you 🙏

Does this resin system work with other brands of dip powder?
Unfortunately, we can't speak on other brands as we don't test their products.
So the activator is what hardens the brush. I wipe the base coat as well using another brand but maybe don’t have to.

are you dipping the nail in the powder or powder coating like we show in the video?
@@youngnailsinc either dipping at a 45° angle or laying it flat. I've tried pouring over as well

Can you use these powders on GelX nail tips??????
Unfortunately, we can't speak on using our products with other brands as we don't test them. You can always give it a try and see how they turn out and tag us so we can see your work😊
Also, you can ask in our facebook group and see if any one else has experience using them together.
I recommended your products to my sister, I'm a nail tech but I live far away... She has a really hard time with things adhering to her nails! Can your protein bond be used with the system to give an even better adhesion? Ty!
No, you cannot use protein bond with this method. The step 2 resin and protein bond do not mix well.
How is she prepping the natural nails?
@@youngnailsinc ok thank you!
I wish you guys shipped to Canada 😭😭😭.
You can find our distributors near you on this page: www.youngnails.com/pages/locate-distributor
Hello! Quick question, if my client wants a gel top coat vs the #4 top coat is that okay? I was thinking the conversion top coat would be my choice. Any clarity would be great. Thank you!
You can use a gel top coat as long as you file the surface of your enhancement with a 150 grit file, cleanse it & apply a coat of Protein Bond. Conversion Top would work great!
can I do designs on nails with powder?
Love the video but I want to get your products and I live in Australia so how do I get my hands on young nails products

So this can be produced without any kind of led/uv lights?
Correct, when using the dip powder method with resin like in this video, you don't need a curing light at all.
@@youngnailsinc thank you! I ordered it right away. Some people don’t wanna use te lights. So this is perfect for them.
For using conversion base and top, would you recommend wiping the brush similarly (like in step 4 of your video above?)
We have a video coming out about using conversion next week. Keep an eye out😊
Do you personally prefer the gel method or resin system with Slickpour? How do you decide when to use each? thank you
They are both strong.. I would say resin probably a little stronger and conversion is more flexible.
Do you have a system where powder that has come in contact with one client is not used on any other person? Even pouring the powder over the nail and letting it go back in the original container can and likely does cause contamination.
I am looking for a system that reduces wasted product but has no cross contamination with the powder.
You can actually put just enough in a small dish for that clients service. Here’s a great video that shows that. ua-cam.com/video/5baLstPXOJI/v-deo.html
How much do you charge for slick pour? Same as full set
We recommend charging the same for any enhancement service whether it is acrylic, hard gel or Slick Pour.
When doing this on natural nails with no extensions, how many applications would you apply?
As many as you need for the color or thickness you are wanting.
Are the base and top the same? Other dip systems the base and top coat are the same product. Ty!
I think they are the same I use the base as the top coat as well and it works fine😊
I’m considering getting the kit for this system. Are they full size bottles in the kit?
They are full size bottles!
I got mystery box slickpours as well I've never used the dip system have questions how do we extend if client wants length added to natural nails? how does it work with fills is it easy to remove does it file off easy or soak each time ? not sure if I want to add this service seems like alot of steps. what is the advantage of using this compared to acrylic or gels? thanks for any advice.
Yeah agree, you can't really fill this product has to be soaked off. And yes you can use it with extension tips but doesn't come out as smooth as his application. You really have to do a few more layers so that you can file it into shape and get an apex, it is quite lumpy. I think you need more than the 2 layers he used anyway as it cracks if it's too thin. I use 3-4 layers especially if they are long nails.
The Slick Pour powders are acrylic powder, they are just more finely ground so they get good color consistency as a dip product. So if you prefer to just use them as a normal acrylic with monomer, that's completely ok.
If you are wanting to build an extension as a dip service, you would have to apply a tip and then do the dip process over that. You can fill as a dip service, but depending on the color you are wanting to fill with, you may have to completely remove the previous color. For example, if you have red dip on the nail and want to change to blue, you would have to remove all of the red. But if you have red on and want to keep that same red, you can just fill in the cuticle area with that same color.
Depending on your comfort level with the efile, dip product can be filed off with the Safety Bit-Coarse or it can be soaked off with acetone.
How can I get slickpours am from kanya(Africa)
you can check our list of distributors to find one near you: www.youngnails.com/pages/locate-distributor
I got my mystery box with all these colors, the sad part was they were spilled all over, not all of it but quite few of the products, also I ordered a gel and the lid that came with it is broken from the side, I hope this doesn’t affect it in the long run ☹️☹️ I’ve ordered from young nails before and nv had this happen 🤷♀️
We are sorry about that! We will give you the details for our customer service team and they will be able to help you out with that. Contact customer service at 1.800.777.9170 or by email at info@youngnails.com
would you use protein bond as a primer?
Protein bond is a non acid primer.. it doesn’t chemically etch the nail like a traditional primer does. Protein stays sticky.. sticks to the natural nail and then sticks the product.
How do you remove power dip from flake nails.? I have to removed my flakes nail which takes me hours. Please help.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure what you mean by flake nails?
You can remove dip powder with an e-file or soaking off but we prefer an e-file.
Also do you sale the Resin steps 1-3 separately? I couldn't find it on your website. 😳
Yes we do, they are under the dip & color acrylic tab.
Guys, I was thinking about buying the slick pour kit, but I wanted to wait till my mystery boxes arrived before ordering-the slick pour kit is not available anymore on your website 😭. Is the slick pour kit no longer available? I have not gotten my black friday order yet either, it's still waiting to be packaged 😭😭
Kicking myself for not ordering the slicker kit right now!
Did you order mystery boxes??
I order mystery boxes and the slick pour color were there !
@@chere1991 I ordered the mystery boxes, I couldn't decide on buying the slick pour kit, I looked at their website today but didn't see it available. 😭
Yes, I couldn't wait for my order to arrive and I looked on Facebook...I am excited and happy at what is in the boxes! Can't wait to get mine! It shipped today!
🤩🤩
Hi! Does anyone know if slickpour needs to be soaked off for removal or can we treat it like a gel overlay and just take it down and add a color change on top?
You don't have to soak it off. You can file off the color down to the base layer and then re-prep and apply.
@@youngnailsinc oh ok thanks!
Can you use dip powder with tips or over a sculpted nail?
Yes, just make sure if you are using it over tips, you need to create a little more structure through the apex/stress area. If you use them over a sculpted nail, use them sparingly or thin layers so the nail does not get too thick.
Can I skip #4 and use ultimate gel finish?
Yes, but make sure you have filed the surface with either a 150 grit file or the medium arbor band and apply a coat of Protein Bond before the Ultimate Finish to help the adhesion.
