As a beginner and self taught I like this method better because it cuts down on the file time that needs to be done. I use this method for all 3 applications
It really does, wished this method came out when I was in my manicurist program. That is great this method turned out to be convenient for you and thanks for watching!
I do this too with nail tips and dual forms they work so amazing and painting over the finished dual form nail is so satisfying! I love that you made this video.
Thank you for such a clear video! I’ve been using dual forms for about a year now but always hated how the underside of them turned out. I just tried your technique and my nails look perfect. Thank you again!
I know what you mean, I love clear nails but the underneath being to thick makes them merky BUT you can get a cheap nice nail drill of Amazon, and use a thin drill bit the clean up the bottoms and then use clear gel polish on the bottoms as well to make them super clear
I was able to do that because the tips were thin, now if they were thick that would have been a big no-no for me. But I understand what you mean :p . Thank you for watching this video :)
Is polygel different than acrylic with this method? I was doing acrylics on myself but fell in love with polygel and every video I have seen says not to squeeze all the product out like that because the product is wasted and the nails are thin..when I first started with polygel and squeezed the product out the nails would break in the middle from being too thin because I squeezed all the product out basically...I bought tips and want to put the polygel over my white tips for French nails...do your nails break? Or are the tips like a 2nd reinforcement? So you dont need much product? Thanks
Thank you for watching my video, the thing is that acrylic must be applied quick with this method and polygel needs a uv lamp to cure. I suggest using a tip to reinforce it's stability or form a tip using a nail form underneath to create a smoothe back surface. I also recommend applying a thin second coat of either acrylic or gel to prevent the nail from breaking.
New subscriber. Starting new soon. Just waiting for my supplies and honestly can not wait to try this. It makes the nail so pretty and smooth. And the under side isn’t bulky, too much product doing just polygel. I saw another video with encapsulation. Looked relatively easy and absolutely stunning. I do like the polygraph and the dual forms. But what is the trick for right thickness for apex. Either too thick or too thin.
Thanks for watching my video Amanda, I will have to keep this in mind I actually have been planning on demonstrating this technique with known brands but thanks for asking. This is a great question!
So most people o this method to avoid that curve in the dual form but with the tips you chose it was just defeated the purpose.. if you we’re doing it to avoid the curve…
@@nikkievans7133 Thank you! Been trying to figure out the best way to do my own nails and I'm weighing out all the options. Everytime I find one thing I think i'm going to do I find another technique or product! So many options! Wish me luck. :-)
This technique gives the back of the nail a smooth surface, this process is for who ever wants to have a cleaner smooth surface behind the nail enhancement
@@marijaivanovic197 This technique is solely to show how to use a tip for this method is all, plus I really liked it because doing a dual form technique without a smooth back surface to me was odd 😔. Thanks for watching my video 👍
The tips arnt applied correctly at all. These will eventually snap and take your nail bed with it one of these days if you arnt careful. You cant leave the corners of the tip up like that. Im a nail tech and Im trying to warn you. Take heed and learn how to apply them correctly.
Thank you for taking your sweet time into viewing my video I love how you dedicated yourself in a loving manner. In fact you should show a demonstration as well. Sorry, I'm not into women
Best tutorial and ypu don't have to worry about all that gunky build up under the nail. Definitely will be doing this going forward❤

i like it next time i do that wow so easy and clean and fast tank you so much for the nice video
When you clipped the tips with the acrylic I was like 😳
I was able to do that because the tips were thin, now if they were thick that would have been a big no-no for me. But I understand what you mean :p . Thank you for watching this video :)
You did a great job on your nails. I think I’m going to try what you did and do the same on my nails. Ty.
Thank you so much for watching 🖤❤🖤 means so much!
Goin to try this because I just can’t lay acrylic to save my life lol
Awww well I hope your nails come out glamorous, it just takes patience and practice 😉
Me either 🥴
Try applying acrylic in small beads or start by applying it like nail polish! It takes forever but works!

Fantastic! I will try it!
Thanks for watching! Glad my video helped 🙂
I noticed that your nails had a lot of tiny bubbles. How can you get those out?

Thank you Erika !!! I totally agree! Thank you for watching the video and for subscribing
Doing this . This week!!!
When squeezing out the acrylic like this caused an allergic reaction overtime?
How long did these last you?!? I’m going to do these tonight lol
They had lasted for about two and a half weeks from what I remember and thank you so much for watching!
Can you do this but with polygel? Like a video demonstration?
Thanks for watching my video Amanda, I will have to keep this in mind I actually have been planning on demonstrating this technique with known brands but thanks for asking. This is a great question!
Oh and New Subscriber 🤗🤗
Thank you!!! ❤
A NEW SUBSCRIBER LOVE THIS TECHNIQUE I CAN RELATE TO HAVING A SMOOTH UNDERNEATH THE NAIL. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. STAY BLESSED
Have you ever tried this with polygel?
Yes, if you feel more comfortable with polygel this would be good. I've used polygel before but just liked using acrylic more.
What acrylic brand did you use?
Interesting
Ohh I need to try this method! Nice job!! Very impressive, may I ask you, how long does this method last for? Thank you in advance 🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰
Not so much acrylic.
How long do nails with tgis method last for u ?
Around two to three weeks 💅
So most people o this method to avoid that curve in the dual form but with the tips you chose it was just defeated the purpose.. if you we’re doing it to avoid the curve…
has anyone done this with poly gel?
You can
Just prep accordingly and use your base coat over the nstural nail and the tip

What tips are those?
Why do you need to put the nail tips then? Sorry I’m a beginner.

SASHA MIRANDAA Thank you for your reply! :)
@@boiledpotato9826 no problem 👌
I was wondering why, thanks

Idea is great. Why so sloppy in your video??
That's bad that nail will break !

Girl, be careful touching that acrylic like that.. u could end up with contact dermititis.. It happened to me.
Look too thick, a lot of bubbles....and way too much extra time to do them this way. Wasted product too, not sure the point of this. lol.
Thanks for taking your entire time watching my video. Loved how you learned something hun.
@@SASHAMIRANDAA I didn't watch it, I fast forwarded to the end. lol
Ur wasting acrylic, way too much
Thanks for watching my video 🙂 and enjoying it
This video just keeps getting worse. My god.
