I saw another nail tech do this and to help get tip off easier she put cuticle oil in tip first. Just a very small amount. Great walk through thank you xxx
I thought that is what she was going to do in this video. Thank you because that was a thought I had to make it easier to get off! Thank you so very much!
Any time I have questions over different nail products ,your videos are the only ones I watch anymore! You explain everything so clear and leave nothing out!
I definitely like the shape of these much better than what typically comes out of a dual form. much more elegant and modern. the dual forms I've seen on your channel and a few others tend to be the non-pinched, wide square type nail. if you want a more "in" shape, you have to file them so much to get there.
You know if u wanted they now have dual forms in every shape on Amazon..I just bought coffin, stiletto, & Russian almond shaped dual forms off Amazon ❤️
@@genahebert4 that's great!! Do you know if they have any that will fit masculine/male/drag queen hands? I have friends that would love a set for a weekend or performance but can't justify the time and money for a sculpted, formed set that will just have to come off on Monday.
This is awesome Suzie. I’ve actually done this on my channel years ago. It’s a great way to get any shape you want. Dual forms didn’t use to have all the shapes and now many do. So back when dual forms only came in stilettos and square is when I first tried this.
@@NailCareerEducation thanks for replying,maybe just trial and error,we never know until we try,that’s why we have lovely ladies like you on UA-cam to teach us,thank you 😘
As someone who struggles with dual formers (all the extra work I have to do to get the shape and length I want makes them far more time consuming than they are meant to be) - this is an absoute game changer! I was already thankful for finding your channel, the more I watch, the more and more I learn and appriciate you and the work you put into making these videos!
You're an excellent teacher, thank you for teaching and showing your videos. Many wouldn't do that unless you're paying. I can't afford a lot of stuff. But You're videos truly helps. Thank you❣️🤗🥰❤️
Every video I watch of yours has been extremely helpful, especially being new to using poly gel! I had just bought full coverage tips, thinking I couldn't use them as a poppit, but you taught me I could! :) TY, love your videos!
I tried doing this a couple of weeks ago and I thought that I could just pop off the nail extension but it wouldn't work. Thank you for making this video now I know that all I need is a sharp tool to pop it off! This is the easiest way in the world to shape nails
Love this I have done this with hybrid gel and love it. I didn't know you could use the dual form with acrylic either, would love to see a video on how you do it with acrylic ❤
Thank you for such a detailed video. I was able to do my first set of nails with builder nail gel using this method and it worked beautifully! Game changer for sure!
This is wonderful. I started doing Gel nails. Then noticed my nails weren’t as strong. So I used a builder gel. But I just started using Polly gel with the duel forms. And I’m enjoying it. Your videos are helping learn what to do and not do. Thank you so much
Thank you for this video... I've tried this technique but had a heck of a time getting the nail form/tip off 🥺 I might have to try it again you make it look so simple!
Just found your videos a few weeks ago. Haven't had my nails done since the 80's. Decided to try again. Had a full set of acrylics. They are so wide and thick. Looks like the 80's all over again. Hate my wide nails. Love your videos.
Try a tapered Nail once it hits the free edge and build the Apex a little higher that helps to slender away now. Also be very aware of the sidewalls tapering them in ward
@@NailCareerEducation thanks for the advice. I am thinking I should just try teaching myself. Very frustrating to leave the salon with such disappointment at such a high price.
Hey Suzie. So needed that. Stressful day at work and watching you do that and talk is sooo soothing lol. Love the little tips on screen as you go through v clever cameraman. See you soon xxx
Quick question! If you were wanting to keep the full coverage tips on, is the best thing to adhere it to the nail the hybrid gel? You just showed how it can pop off of the hybrid gel. Would a hard gel also allow the full coverage tip to pop off?
A hard gel is a GREAT product to use to keep the nail tip on for the duration if the set! Be sure to prep your nails as you normally would.for gel application and scuff up the part of the nail form that will go over your nail bed. :)
I use a builder gel to do basically gel x nails which is what ur describing. So much easier to do on ur self cus little to no filing involved. My tips for this method is to file the nail tip tower that touches ur nail and the top when u apply polish. It will last longer and adhere better.
I would have never thought of this. Right after watching I went immediately and tried it and was completely amazed! It was easy and worked perfectly!!! Thanks, I loved it! ❤
Suzie! Well it took a two years, but I finally did it. I'm a bad nail biter... BAD! I went to my sister's nail tech and told her what you did for Grant, showed her the videos and asked if she could do the same. She did, kind of... She used nail tips, which she glued onto my nubs, and then used clear powder for the nail itself. I think it was 4 or 5 layers. I was adamant that I wanted them to look like my nails, not fake. At first I wasn't sure. She said to trust her... She was working on them and they were really white, not looking real at all. But when she hit them with the activator(?) they just popped! I was more than pleased, and, I like them more than Grant's! They look like my natural nails! Only issue was at first she used a gloss topcoat, which made them way to shiny, so then we switched to a matte one, which really made them awesome. And yup, tried to bite one already, and my teeth have more of a chance of coming loose than me biting one of these off. Thank you so much for the videos of you working on Grant to give me the idea to do this. All the best to you AND him!
I love watching you work, you're simply the best at what you do... I've watched so many tutorials and been left thinking I'm none the wiser, watched you do it and I've got it straight away lol 🤭😋
I'm so happy to see this video. I have worn full cover press on nails for years, but wanted something that would last longer. I just got my first polygel kit. I am frustrated because the forms don't fit my small nails right and I end up haven't to do a lot of buffing and shaping after and they don't look good. I was hoping my press on nails would work as a form and I did try that on my own and it worked so much better for me, but I didn't know if it wad "OK" to do that. Thanks for the validation!😊
I would definitely buy your ez gel separately, I was looking for it right now and I didn’t find it, I love how you thought about putting in a pot instead of a squeezy tube , genius 😍😍
Absolutely lovely job! 😄 I've had difficulty with dual forms and using the tip seems like you have a bit more control with the product and end result sizing. I also didn't know that touching your skin too much with the gel could cause allergies. Thanks for the awesome information and tips, I can't wait to give it a try! 🤩
I kept thinking to myself, other then the tabs, how are popits any different then full covers? Thanks for reading my mind and answering with such a clear demonstration. They look beautiful, and it was so quick, just what I needed to know.
Hi ... im new to the channel and I'll apologize in advance if you answered this before, but the video is a year old and scrolling thru the comments was a pita lol. In the first method with the excess: What are you using to clean up the nail? I also saw you use it in the 2nd method to mold the putty ... you dipped the brush in something and sculpted the nail in the form, can you tell me what that is? Thanks in advance :)
7:25 my jaw LITERALLY DROPPING TO THE FLOOR!!! I'm SURE you heard the thud!! 🤣I mean....I just spent extra money on dual forms I didn't even need and there's still time to return them as I haven't even opened the package. I'll try this first because girl...I have a MILLION full cover tips! Thanks so much. Hope I can pull this off.
Thank you for your video!!! I loved it and your insight ronthe whole video, I don't have enough right now to order hybrid gel. My question is can you or I donthis with your acrylic and slow monimer?
Susie, though I've never tried polygel yet. Im truly enjoying your tutorials as you are more detailed than others. Do you mind listing all the tools from start to finish and links where to buy them? I cant wait to do this. Thank you for a well demo on your videos ❤❤❤
If you’re shopping on my store at nailcareer.com, then you will need: The EZ GEL KIT One package of Suzies Quick Tips Any shape and style you like And you will need a mini nuke to cure the EZ GEL. Have fun
First I'd just like to say that I really enjoy your videos. I tried this method but was not able to get the full cover nail tip off without damaging the gel beneath. Maybe I cured it too long? How long would you recommend curing, or what techniques might you suggest to avoid this issue? Thank you :)
Ugh I had that same question. There are a lot of people that this method hasn’t worked. I am wondering if you cure it for less time.. like flash cure, then maybe are able to take it off 🤷♀️
Question: How long does the EZ Gel kit last for? Can you you get at least 3-5 sets on the nails before the jar gets empty? Or how long can this kit last for? Appreciate the feedback.
Suzieeeee! Girlfriend thank you so much I have learned so much from your tutorial channel. I'm not too fond of the dual forms so this is perfect thank you its much more elegant. Love a good almond shaped nail. Sending love and light from CT. 🌷🙏💖
I'm a complete newbie to fake nails. Have had them done professionally for a while long ago but after I found you I decided to venture into doing my own nails. Doing my nails is soothing, entertaining, relaxing, a way to express myself, etc, however I have very short (years of nail biting), flat and wide nails. As you can imagine...they're not the best canvas for nail art. So you inspired me and gave me the confidence to go ahead and do my own set of custom acrylic nails to fit my unfortunate profile. Downside is that with all the practice I get, I still end up spending over 5 hours when doing one hand (talk about nit picky) and I find that most of that is in filling. Not because I put a lot of product but because I want the perfect shape and I never get the form right enough so I need to adjust in "post production". I tried the forms so I can skip all that but ofc, my nails are such a nightmare they don't work that easily. I either put too much product and it spills all over my cuticles or too little and it cracks up and leave a million crevasses underneath the form. I found that more is safer than less but then again, using acrylic I need to hold it in place or else it moves and leaves air beneath it, which means no time for cleanup between application and when it cures. Once cures, cleanup at the cuticle is painful and close to impossible. Another issue I have is that I love using nail polish (holo taco to be specific - turns out I love supporting Canadian youtubers
Hi sweetie. Firstly when removing HoloTaco nail polish use a NON ACETONE polish remover. If it has acetone in it it can damage the Gelly/plastic tip. I have not tried this technique with acrylic but I suspect it would work. Check my YT I troubleshoot these products quite often. I do some art videos too - keep watching my YT for future designs 💛
Amazing! So should we add more product near the top where the apex should be? When I did mine, the nail became completely straight and was painful when pressure was applied to the bottom half!
If you’re a tip that you’re applying became perfectly straight, then you were pressing down way too hard and you were changing the shape of the tip. Assuming that your tip does not have an arch built in already. And if it doesn’t, I would not purchase those tips.
This is Femi Beauty’s Femi beauty method. It used to be called the lazy girl method. She used this method for years and has incorporated magnetic gel charms and ombré methods if your looking for more advanced looks. She has a UA-cam channel as well.
wow finally I found a video that explains what i was looking for, i wanted to see if i can order forms like these to use instead of dual forms because the one I have in my kit are so curved. Thank you that looked great I will try to find something that I can use for my first polygel try.
What drill bits are you using I love the purple sander looking ones. Love you vids I lear so very much. PS I love that Camera Man does such a sublime job on the closeups, sound and editing. Premium videos!
I just tried doing gel for the first time. I love it but I want them longer. I can’t find any videos on putting a gel extension on a gel extension. Do I just buff and start the extension like it’s a fresh nail? I would love to see a video on this. Thanks for all you do
Yeeesss!!! Thank you for this video! I have full almond tips and wanted to know if i could use them to shape the polygel instead of the forms. The regular dual forms just dont give that perfect almond shape. I'm gonna try this now! Will be subscribing for more nail hacks!! 💅✨
Something about your voice and your vibe ..... it is softly ecstatic and helps me to touch a wisp of calm in the midst of brutal chaos. I'm gay af but I gotta say your cameraman is lucky ... he caught a goddess. Or maybe both of yall are lucky 🎉
Oh wow that looks so beautiful Love watching your videos learning so much more than going to a person giving training thank you for your awesome videos Linda
Hi everyone! I'm just getting into acrylic and gel nails. I did the poly gel nails for a bit but always fount issues with either the gel itself or it breaking, snapping and crumbling so I've lost interest in those but I'd love to see new tutorials! Also are there any other kinds of fake nails you can do this with? Thanks everyone!
Might have to try this as one of my nails came off. But I ran out of nail forms and I want to fix my nails by tomorrow as I'll be eating out and my nails look terrifying. I'm wondering if this will work with my hard gel. It's much softer than what you used but totally fine for sculpting nails, my other nails agree. I'm also wondering if undercuring it might help it release better. Like cure it for 30 secs then pop the nail, then cure for an additional 30 secs? I might have to try it.
How do you work with tips or dual forms that have a stronger c curve than the natural nail? My nails aren't particularly flat -- I would even say they're more curved than average -- yet my dual forms are still too tightly curved. I try to put more hybrid gel in the center vs near the sides, but it's very hard to get it right!
It seems like all the dual forms I've tried are too deep. I end up having to really load them with a ton of product and often get bubbles/pockets. Anybody have suggestions for that? Are these tips not as deep? I've never used a full coverage tip before.
Just bought your EZ gel kit and I am so excited for it show up. When I went to your website I noticed you added the lint free wipes AFTER I had bought your kit lol, that’s ok cause I’m sure I will end up buying something else hehe. Question, I was wondering why you didn’t include a clear gel in the gel kit?
You will fine some Blue Napkins in the EZ Gel Kit👍🏼 Clear is hard to make really clear / EZ GEL is better in colour- and if I was purchasing a kit I wouldn’t want to waste it on a Clear. But I’m working on a good clear
Oh my gosh, where did this concept come from? This is amazing. Came a long way since doing Volpe Nails 30 years ago. Does this work with regular acrylics? I would think you’d have to put an oil or something on it so it would slide off? And it looks just like the shape of the tip so really minimal filing? Thank you for your videos, I learn so much since Beauty school in 1993! 💕🙏✂️
@ I can’t believe my eyes! Btw a friend of mine who owns her own nail salon loves you and said that you are very good! I’ll 2nd that! But where do you find time in between clients? I miss it so much and was offered a good opportunity in a new Salon in this area (Scranton, Pa. ). I’m so nervous I hate interviewing and doing a set in front of the Salon owners!
Hi Suzie could you use this method with acrylic by letting it harden, then applying to nail with another small amount of acrylic like a full cover gel tip?
The only thing is once you apply acrylic in at hardens when you’re putting something else on top of it it’s not going to mould into it it’s gonna cause an extra thickness
Now this looks like something I’m excited to try. I was excited to try on tips when I saw you use an acrylic bead as glue but tips just don’t stay on for me. I’m curious if you could do a french fade with this method, that would be sooooo life changing.
When you do the hybrid gel and before the base, do you need to use the dehydrator and primer? I noticed that you didn’t but would it make the mail last longer?
It always giving a bubble between nail and gel cured after I remove the form and putting more product is just resulting in having this gel under my nail around finger and absolutely everywhere
Shut the front door!!’ I love this method. How clever. Have to try this. Thanks Suzie!!
Me too!!!
I saw another nail tech do this and to help get tip off easier she put cuticle oil in tip first. Just a very small amount. Great walk through thank you xxx
Do you put the cuticle oil on after curing to loosen the tip?
@@rj3892 you put the oil on the tip, then the gel and cure. The tip should come off easily once cured.
I thought that is what she was going to do in this video. Thank you because that was a thought I had to make it easier to get off! Thank you so very much!
I saw someone do topcoat in first cure then put product in@johughes2331

Hi! How long do you put in uv/led lamp? Like 5 seconds or 60 seconds? I want to be able to pop the tip off.
@@heatherfeather4 You’d wanna definitely do a full cure. Let the dual form cool before popping off.
You just explain everything so well and so professional. ❤️
I’ve done this too,a great idea! I use to rub the smallest amount of cuticle oil inside the tip,wipe off any excess and pops off great.
Very interesting- as I tried that too, but it didn’t seem to aid it at all, maybe I didn’t apply enough oil🤔

Thank you for this video... I've tried this technique but had a heck of a time getting the nail form/tip off 🥺 I might have to try it again you make it look so simple!
Me too! I finally pulled it off with a pliers, and it tore in two.
make sure the tip isn’t prebuffed if possible, and going in from the side helps a lot, goin in from the cuticle for some reason can make things harder
What do you do to prevent the tip from popping off while using builder gel as adhesive if you wanna use it traditionally tho without taking it off?

Hi sweetie. Firstly when removing HoloTaco nail polish use a NON ACETONE polish remover. If it has acetone in it it can damage the Gelly/plastic tip.
I have not tried this technique with acrylic but I suspect it would work.
Check my YT I troubleshoot these products quite often.
I do some art videos too - keep watching my YT for future designs 💛
@@NailCareerEducation Always watching! Thank you!
She's a nail god .I love all her nails the Christmas nails are my fav.
Whats the difference btwn the nail sticking/staying on and being able to remove it? Are you using a different product than soft builder gel?
You are a genius! This method is perfect
Your voice is so calming 😊
I am doing my nails right now! Great timing. Thanks NCE!
Oh awesome
Amazing! So should we add more product near the top where the apex should be? When I did mine, the nail became completely straight and was painful when pressure was applied to the bottom half!
If you’re a tip that you’re applying became perfectly straight, then you were pressing down way too hard and you were changing the shape of the tip. Assuming that your tip does not have an arch built in already. And if it doesn’t, I would not purchase those tips.
This is Femi Beauty’s Femi beauty method. It used to be called the lazy girl method. She used this method for years and has incorporated magnetic gel charms and ombré methods if your looking for more advanced looks. She has a UA-cam channel as well.
wow finally I found a video that explains what i was looking for, i wanted to see if i can order forms like these to use instead of dual forms because the one I have in my kit are so curved. Thank you that looked great I will try to find something that I can use for my first polygel try.
I love that your polygel is in a container like that. The tubes are difficult to get product out of especially if you have hand issues.
I agree 💯 especially if you want to put some back - it’s easy but you can’t get it back in a tube
What a good idea 😀. I love watching your videos . Your studio looks so relaxing making it a nice chill time while we learn ❤️
Suggestions if i wanted to do this with your black ez gel? This looks so much easier than forms!
I literally was looking this up last night!! Its like you read my mind!!! Thanks for posting!!
Could you do a video like this with acrylic please!!!!
Every time I need to feel better or a comfort watch, I come here to sweet Suzie ❤
Hi Suzie can I use the pop it forms with brush on builder gel? Thanks
What drill bits are you using I love the purple sander looking ones. Love you vids I lear so very much. PS I love that Camera Man does such a sublime job on the closeups, sound and editing. Premium videos!
Hey, Suzie! Do you have a technique how to make a set a french nails with these dual forms? I would love to see that! 😌😌😌
No way I just saw this video. I find this SO much easier than actual dual forms!
I just tried doing gel for the first time. I love it but I want them longer. I can’t find any videos on putting a gel extension on a gel extension. Do I just buff and start the extension like it’s a fresh nail? I would love to see a video on this. Thanks for all you do
Yeeesss!!! Thank you for this video! I have full almond tips and wanted to know if i could use them to shape the polygel instead of the forms. The regular dual forms just dont give that perfect almond shape. I'm gonna try this now! Will be subscribing for more nail hacks!! 💅✨
Something about your voice and your vibe ..... it is softly ecstatic and helps me to touch a wisp of calm in the midst of brutal chaos. I'm gay af but I gotta say your cameraman is lucky ... he caught a goddess. Or maybe both of yall are lucky 🎉
I just love your nails I am from Texas and join your videos love you may God bless you
I just tried it after struggling with my nails popping off and this method worked thank youuuu
So this is poly gel product , can you do that with hard gel
Can you use this method with builder gel?
Omg I did them with hard gel, look fantastic Thankyou so much. Don’t need tips anymore😊😊xxx
Oh wow that looks so beautiful Love watching your videos learning so much more than going to a person giving training thank you for your awesome videos Linda
Everything I use gel I have trouble smoothing the bottom, without thinning out the nail at the apex. HELP!!!
Hi everyone! I'm just getting into acrylic and gel nails. I did the poly gel nails for a bit but always fount issues with either the gel itself or it breaking, snapping and crumbling so I've lost interest in those but I'd love to see new tutorials! Also are there any other kinds of fake nails you can do this with? Thanks everyone!
I love the lighting in the background it’s so cozy
Might have to try this as one of my nails came off. But I ran out of nail forms and I want to fix my nails by tomorrow as I'll be eating out and my nails look terrifying. I'm wondering if this will work with my hard gel. It's much softer than what you used but totally fine for sculpting nails, my other nails agree. I'm also wondering if undercuring it might help it release better. Like cure it for 30 secs then pop the nail, then cure for an additional 30 secs? I might have to try it.
Wow I Love this video! So easy and beautiful!
How do you work with tips or dual forms that have a stronger c curve than the natural nail? My nails aren't particularly flat -- I would even say they're more curved than average -- yet my dual forms are still too tightly curved. I try to put more hybrid gel in the center vs near the sides, but it's very hard to get it right!
Do you need nail dehydrator and primer First?
Looks like the Femy Beauty (Lazy girl method). She's being doing this for years. The nails look great!💗💅
Lazy girl method 😂😂😂. is a copy of an old trend from the 90's. we used loose nails and acrylic. this is called the Dualform method.
It seems like all the dual forms I've tried are too deep. I end up having to really load them with a ton of product and often get bubbles/pockets. Anybody have suggestions for that? Are these tips not as deep? I've never used a full coverage tip before.
Just bought your EZ gel kit and I am so excited for it show up. When I went to your website I noticed you added the lint free wipes AFTER I had bought your kit lol, that’s ok cause I’m sure I will end up buying something else hehe. Question, I was wondering why you didn’t include a clear gel in the gel kit?
You will fine some Blue Napkins in the EZ Gel Kit👍🏼 Clear is hard to make really clear / EZ GEL is better in colour- and if I was purchasing a kit I wouldn’t want to waste it on a Clear. But I’m working on a good clear
@@NailCareerEducation Thank you Suzy!
Again, always informative. Can’t wait for your next video!!
Does this works on any full cover gel tips?
hands down THE BEST camerman, that needed to be said :-)
What liquid do you use on the brush when brushing the polygel into the nail tip?
Will this work with apre gel in a bottle ? It’s builder gel in a bottle I think ? How long to cure ??
Hello Suzie thank you for this video . Would this work with acrylic as well?
Oh my gosh, where did this concept come from? This is amazing. Came a long way since doing Volpe Nails 30 years ago. Does this work with regular acrylics? I would think you’d have to put an oil or something on it so it would slide off? And it looks just like the shape of the tip so really minimal filing? Thank you for your videos, I learn so much since Beauty school in 1993! 💕🙏✂️
Nails have changed ALOT
@ I can’t believe my eyes! Btw a friend of mine who owns her own nail salon loves you and said that you are very good! I’ll 2nd that! But where do you find time in between clients? I miss it so much and was offered a good opportunity in a new Salon in this area (Scranton, Pa. ). I’m so nervous I hate interviewing and doing a set in front of the Salon owners!
Hi Suzie could you use this method with acrylic by letting it harden, then applying to nail with another small amount of acrylic like a full cover gel tip?
The only thing is once you apply acrylic in at hardens when you’re putting something else on top of it it’s not going to mould into it it’s gonna cause an extra thickness
Now this looks like something I’m excited to try. I was excited to try on tips when I saw you use an acrylic bead as glue but tips just don’t stay on for me. I’m curious if you could do a french fade with this method, that would be sooooo life changing.
When you do the hybrid gel and before the base, do you need to use the dehydrator and primer? I noticed that you didn’t but would it make the mail last longer?
I can’t wait to watch this🥰 made my day Suzie, thank you!
It always giving a bubble between nail and gel cured after I remove the form and putting more product is just resulting in having this gel under my nail around finger and absolutely everywhere
I wish my library offered these classes.
So beautiful 😍 you make everything look so effortless
