  • Ay up, me duckies! How's it goin? Today, I've got something dead excitin' to share with you. Proper game-changin' that's gonna revamp your salon.
    So, imagine this: you're in the salon, and your client's struggling to pick the right shade of nude for their French manicure. Well, fret not! We're gonna make that choice dead easy.
    I stumbled across this ace idea, and I thought, "I've gotta 'ave a go at this!" Trust me, it's genius! We're gonna rustle up a swatch kit using them practice tip swatches and some crackin' nude colors from The Kirsty Meakin Collection.
    First off, we'll get them tips prepped for maximum long-lastingness 'cause, let's face it, we want 'em to stick around. Then, it's all about slappin' on them base coats for a solid hold.
    Now, picking the rightt nude shade can be a bit tricky, but fear not-I've got yer back. From skin tone to nail condition, we're gonna break it all down and find the perfect match for every client.
    But hold on tight 'cause I've got a top-notch hack for customising' French manicures using an electric file and some sanding bands. Trust me!
    And here's the best bit: label your swatches using stickers from gel polish boxes. It's a time-saving trick that'll make yer salon life a piece of cake.
    So, what are yow waiting for? Let's get stuck in, get creative, and take your nail game to the next level! Remember, it's not just about the nails-it's about the journey.

    I do something kinda similar for my chrome powders (the clear kind of chromes). I swatch them on a clear tip so I can then hold them over the nail color I've chosen to see which color chrome goes best!

    You can also put a top coat on top of the sticker on the swatch to keep it clean and last a little longer 😊

    I'd LOVE to see more pedicure vids! So many people focus on doing art on fingernails, the toes are so often left out. My nail tech did a set on someone else with Spongebob and Patrick and they were adorable!

    Omg That’s cleaver but I’ll tell ya something when I was watching you file that 45 degree angle on the smile line my stomach flipped. I used to work in a full service salon as a “shampoo girl” aaaages ago 🦕and I can’t tell you how many of those things I had to fix and file. The you told your story. I tell you the things they have now is mind blowing. 🤯

    Beautiful 💅. The first one no filter and booty call are my favourites.😊

    Oh, man. When you took that hand file to the swatch tip to shape the "smile line," it gave me PTSD flashbacks to getting my license! Specifically, when I had to take a full-well tip and turn it into a half-well tip (pain in the ass), and then blend it into the nail. I HATE using tips, so this was the part of the test that I dreaded the most! 😂😂
    All of those nude polishes are gorgeous! 😊❤
    P.S. I giggled every time you said "nudes" 🤭 I guess I'm still 12 😂

    8:32 how is Fay? I can’t wait for her to be back in the studio for all the looks and banter. Maybe if we are lucky she will do long nails again.

    Hi Kristy, love this idea, what does it look like if you put the white French tip on the other side-both sticks lying on each other
    . It was driving me crazy because i couldn't do it and was hoping you would switch on the side lolll! (Linda)

    Kirsty, I have an idea for your new Fantasy Nail Forms... to include a "smile line" some of the forms to give the same line shape that a tec could lightly paint and then use as a way to create a smile line across a real nail as a guide. Smile lines are what keep me from doing my own nails with french tips... my offhand is just not that steady! Not sure if that would work or not, but what the heck, thought I would suggest it. Cheers from Texas!

    When did "nude" become the descriptor for "pink"? Nudes used to be skin colors.

    It looks like a tooth in a way 😅 I'm a suckered for a good French, doesn't have to be a white tip .all kinds of colors look great as a French.

    Pure awesomeness Kirsty. The label thing is just crazy helpful. The label maker stickers don’t fit without cutting them down. I’ll have to order all my KM colours again just to get the stickers for my swatch sticks!!!! Thank you for thinking about the practical side of the salon and not just your amazing art. ❤

    Oh my goodness!!! I can’t believe how early I am in the comments. This is exciting! IDK🤷🏻‍♀️ why but it is…🤭‼️ I •LOVE•LOVE•LOVE• KIRSTY MEAKIN…sooooo much!! I love all of the nails she does. They always just look so absolutely amazingly stunning‼️ I wish that I had her talent‼️
    Not only is she an amazing artist, but she is so unbelievably kind hearted & sweet. She always seems to inspire me with how genuine she is & how happy she likes to be in life. I wonder if she, actually, truly knows how much power she has…she has the power to make people feel better just by smiling in a video. At least she does that for me. She is always inspiring me with her positive attitude, her beautiful smile & with all the funny stories & anecdotes that she shares with her followers. She really is an inspiration…like a much needed fresh breath of air at the exact moment that you didn’t even know you needed…🤭‼️
    She may not be perfect but let me tell you this…God broke the mold with this one. She is a perfectly sweet & genuinely kind person that truly cares for others in her life. She has stayed grounded through out her ever~growing popularity & it shows. She is her true self! She has integrity that is unmeasured & she has remained grateful for all that she has earned. I could just gush on & on…I kind of already have🤭 🤷🏻‍♀️…I would never run out of kind things to say about her & her character.
    Now, I have to go & watch the video & save it in my “nails💅🏻 ” folder for inspo purposes for a look or an idea that I may use at a later date…
    To whoever needs to hear this or who has read my comment all the way to the end…
    Have an amazing rest of your day…
    Don’t forget, YOU ARE NEEDED IN THIS WORLD…YOU ARE WORTHY…YOU ARE KIND…YOU ARE SMART…YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL…YOU ARE YOU & there is no other you…much love♥️🥰♥️…
    BYE👋🏼BYE FOR NOW…
