Please do more nail videos!!!!! I do my own nails at home, mainly just normal nail polish but recently started getting into gel extensions and gel polish. This video was so wonderful and so educational in a way that people who are new to this process can follow along easily. I love your makeup videos, but I'm thrilled to see this video today! Beautiful nail set
Fully trained ex nail tech. One little note about the UV... lamps use less UV than your ski gets exposed to in the air throughout the day... so it's probably more important to wear sunscreen throughout the day rather than specifically for doing your nails. Another little tip is to remove the gems and any 3d art using an old cuticle nipper.. it will help your drill bits last longer and is safer too! Hope they are helpful tips! Lovely set of nails!
Thank you for sharing! Really not my cup of tea but love seeing you go through the process and creating this art (love how you use the same kind of language (colour story) for your eyes 👀 and nails 💅🏻) - because that’s what it is. You are such a creative person!
You actually are amazing 🤩 The talent, the creativity, the patience, the teaching ability. What a joy to watch and learn. Love this video, and your nails look fantastic!!
Hi! I'm also a DYI-er who is starting nail school next month! Your talent and skill are amazing and you have a great eye for design! Super skillful and beautiful! Since you mentioned you were concerned about gel exposure and safety from allergies, I wanted to suggest one thing! I've heard from some professionals in the field that airbrushes are amazing tools, but we should not use alcohol or acetone diluted gels in them. They said that even though the color is blasted in 1 direction, the vapors with uncured gel will fill your room very quickly and easily, which could cause some problems! I bought an affordable kit of air brush acrylic paints and I mix the colors prior to putting them in the airbrush. I was also told that even with the acrylic paints you should still wear an air safe mask and open windows/vent your space before doing airbrushing. I hope you keep doing what you're doing and hope this helps you in the future! Thank you!
All the years in junior high that you painted your nails almost every night while watching Wizards of Waverly Place and Hannah Montana has PAID OFF. I am always so amazed by all of your artistic talent ma belle. Love you
JULIA no freaking way?! These are truly the best DIY nail skills I've ever seen. It's clear you've done extensive research and learning, and have invested in all the right tools for safe and successful nails. Sending this to my lil sis for skill upgrade inspo 😂 Please make more nail vids! 💅🏻
Wow! Both sets turned out so so beautiful... I'm really more of a simple gal when it comes to nails but I definitely appreciate the artistry. Would love to see more nail content
This set turned out so amazing! ❤ I'm a press on nail girlie and I found this so so interesting and relaxing to watch!! Would love to see more videos like this xo
You did a wonderful job. Every week when I do my nails, I start off with a design and then I think oh this doesn’t look right. But I do tell myself to trust the process and then every time they are coming out nicer and nicer with each week. Practice really does make you better.
Please post more nail content! It was so relaxing to watch. And would you please include the nail art process for your right hand as well in the next nail videos? It's my favorite part!
Omg, these turned out gooorgeous!! You're an artistic creative maniac! Also really enjoyed how relaxing yet informative this was. So cool, Julia! What types of intermissions are you going to do for these videos??
Thank you for the in-depth tutorial!! All your tips are so helpful, my partner got me a whole set after hearing me talk about this and watch nail artists for a year lol. Very nervous about starting but I'm so excited
Nail Educator here, I enjoyed watching your video! You’re a natural talent. I have a couple of concerns that I’d like to share. At 5.53 Drilling a pocket. I understand your thinking, but the natural is so thin already and drilling in a pocket causes the nail to become weak and increase the possibility of lifting and cause onycholysis . I agree using the little drill bit to get close to the cuticle is good, just go lightly to keep the structure of the natural nail undamaged. 8.53 Primer: Primer is used primarily for Acrylic Nails. Bonder is used for gel nails. You can use primer with gel, just remember to completely dry the primer before your gel application. 15.20: Fantastic idea using your hand and cutt n paste inspired art. 🩷 Your content was clearly executed and explained, please keep creating content and if you ever need any questions answered please don’t hesitate to contact me. Kindest regards Leanne H
This is so fascinating to watch. I'm impressed by how you were able to teach yourself all of this! Are there any nail influencers/channels you watched to help you learn?
This was so cool! I also used to do my own gel x at home. My lap burnt out tho so I haven’t gotten another one. So excited to see more nail content if you feel so inclined!
Really enjoyed this video Julia! thank you! I was considering starting doing my nails like that, but after seeing this video and hearing about dermatitis, allergies then another video from another influenser saying her nails have been filled too much to the skin i have decided this is not for me 😅 also requires alot of time! i barely have time for regular polish these days. anyways, it was fun seeing you create this set. in the end it turned up really good ❤
I could watch you explain anything it's oh so relaxing. I don't have any interest in nails personally, but I'd still watch you do this over and over. ❤
6:13 don’t know if u seen but u start in the middle of the nail and go one way then switch the drill to opposite either f or r from what u had and go the other way hope this helps
I’m not a nail art person, but gosh did I love this video. Hearing your thought process and watching your vision come to life was so enjoyable! It’s a very cool artistic expression that I don’t have to be personally into to appreciate. I’d love to see your take on some more fall or even Halloween inspired nails!
Loved this video so much! Please do more, I also want to do start doing my nails at home and I learned so much just from this video! Also, it is so fun to see you exprimenting with new creative hobbies, you are really talented and I also think the filming was good so thank you and please continue with this videos.
please do more nail videos!!! i want to start doing my own nails, and this video is so helpful!! also, thank you for linking everything!! 🩷 also, your nails turned out stunning!!
The nails turned out amazing! I am not a lisfensed nail tech either but have been doing my own gels for about 10 years and love it! When you’re doing cleanup I’d recommend using alcohol instead of acetone. Acetone breaks down the soak off gel whereas alcohol does not. I’m not familiar with airbrushing but I’d assume the same for that, could have been why you had separation when trying to layer it up at first. Alcohol will volatilize and dry off where as acetone breaks down the gel. Keep up the good work!!
Omg I LOVED this video! So helpful and informative. Hope you do many more of these. I’m a beginner myself, so I loved watching this & took so many tips away from it ❤ You’re channel is def hands down my favorite UA-cam channel 💜
Julia!! I was just re-watching this and remembering how you said you loved Spirited Away. I would LOVE to see you maybe do some nails inspired by the scenery or visuals of Spirited Away for spring!
Your nails look amazing the application prep definitely helps . I just started to do my nails at home also I love love the gel extensions nails press on application with durability of gels . What I noticed is now that I am doing my nails at home my nails don’t get that gel spike when you initially put gel nails under the lamp like the spa .. maybe it’s my prepping or my nail products I use beetles gel easy to apply and inexpensive from Amazon .. I love the almond shape in short ..you definitely have all the supplies. Nail salon does to do nails I was like damn she pulled airbrush out and the dust collector .. thanks for sharing ..
This was great...more nail art videos please. I would love to see your collection of gel polish ...and why you choose the brands..benefits etc. I just started going deeper into doing my own nails but haven't done the big girl designs just yet...lol😂 you nails came out good and loved all the tips. So very helpful
Love love love. I do my nails at home and do press ons as well it's my favorite thing ever, but girl, you are so great. I definitely took some inspiration from your set. I was going to say sweetie nail supply is one of my FAVORITE sites, and they are based in Canada. Seems you may already know that, lol. Please do more nail videos. I thought I was getting better, but girlllllll great job.
From a licensed trained nail tech, you have done an amazing job.. you truly did your research and made it work for you. You're design and thought process is creative and beautiful!! Great job

From a trained nail technician, you’ve done amazing! For someone self taught you’ve done better than some nail techs haha. Very talented!
I'm a nail tech too, and I agree! Good job! And yea better than alot of techs that work in the industry, which is the reason I do my own!
