Umm James these came out perfect 😍😍 I also struggled with the lines when I did this design, so I feel your pain 😅 Thank you for the very kind words and for recreating one of my fave designs 🤎🤎
I was also going to say this bud didn’t want to sound weird, while doing my nails watching he’s videos on the big screen is super chilled one of me now new favourite channels!
I wish my left hand could do what my right hand does. I am not ambidextrous, so one color only for me. Thank you for sharing your passion with us!!! Many blessings!💖💖💖
I’ve been doing my Ian nails for the past 3-4 years and line work is still difficult! I’ve learned that it is a lot about the tools you work with that can make a difference. These turned out great! Tip for having leveled gel- let the wet gel Polish sit on the nails for like 2-3 mins. Even put the nails upside down. That is the best way for it to level. Sometimes I’ll get my mug warmer and heat my fingers up if they are cold to help the gel level.
Ahh yay! Mutsa is my absolute no. 1 inspiration when it comes to nails, and HER inspiration is always so unique! I’ve never seen anyone else do nails with such a clearly independent and individual eye, if you know what I mean?! 😅 And “lines” was how I originally found her 😂 Her videos on how to get steady straight lines are like magic, and I could never 😅 Love this James! ❤
Thankful you are posting more of your nail videos, too. I was beginning to worry it might end up a "What you thinking hun" situation and I was sad because you are talented and your voiceover is soothing. If you ever think you are doing too much, don't because you, robert, marcus and ashton all rule youtube. You all are at the top of my list.
I can see your growth in this video. It looked so good! A tip to get gel more level is to hold your finger/hand upside down once you're done applying but before you cure it. Just for a few seconds. That should help the fel level out on its own. It works for art work as well as full nail coats.
woooow! @nailjournal's art is so technical, neat, and inventive. I've never seen anything like it! thanks for sharing her name James! I'm definitely subscribing to her channel 🥰
I went to school for nails and was absolutely terrible at doing them despite really wanting to be good. Some of the worst acrylic and gel sets out there were my doing in school. Now with gel x I feel like it's possible to do some nice stuff much more easily. The one nail came out so good!
Nailsbydev had the MOST amazing black & white liner art gel gor line work! Shes got any color you could possibly need but her black and white are definitely to die for
I love watching you because you’re learning the same time I’m but your just a little more knowledgeable than me. In the future I would lay down your first line then measure out the one on the other side and it will be more symmetric
Great job, thank you for putting this out❣ Freehand art is so hard. We are our worst critics....I've seen this look using Chrome powder in base or top gel and it was more sparkly than Chrome, but same look...😊
the nails give me Harley Quinn vibes. I like them alot ❤ I also appreciate you trying new things and working through your mistakes 😊 I think the nail came out great.
That|s the thing about artistic pursuits. Everyone's art looks different. I think it was very pretty and the end result was really nice. As for being expert like Mutsa, I think it's just that old adage: practice makes perfect. Great job!
Oh piss, you've started a nail channel!!!! I've been so gone for so long; I'm just catching up. Anywhooo... It absolutely made my day to see that you've started this journey! Maybe we can share tips now? 😂 Lots of love 💜
I can’t wait to get my own supplies and practice my skills alongside you! I don’t plan on really doing any extensions or anything fancy, but even the basic techniques of nail care and just doing a simple design with gel polish seems so fun and satisfying.
I have the same problem with black liner gel - it was just not having it and kept wrinkling. I was painting the whole nail black and turns out when i thought was just enough was too much still. In the end i just applied the black in the centre then used a liner brush to spread it out to the edges - still really opaque. I think when it comes to details I probably won't use the bottle brush until i get used to the "correct" amount. P.s. your lines are ace. My shaky hands could never 😂😂
james this looks so great! I was doing an hourglass shape the other day and something that helped me was to do smaller dots in the main areas of the hourglass, so basically where it starts, where the high point is, and where it comes down again if that makes sense? Then you can make the dots aligned on each side, and then you do the lines connecting the dots. But yours turned out prob better than mine hahah, but just sharing some technics. Love both of your channels!
How have I only just found this channel today, I am subscribed to your other channel? I always do this same thing wipe it off and start again but I guess that’s the fun frustration of it.
Ur to hard on ur self u did amazing,iv been a nail tech since 2005 and I'm horrible with art but I continue to practice 😊I'll get there but ur there hun we are our own worst critic 😮

Excuse me?! Nail Channel? How did I miss this. Oh my god I am going to binge right now.
Yessss Nail Journal is the best! Glad to see you recreating her nails! 💜

Love these videos, makes it feel more approachable when you show your problem solving!
This is great! I always see sort of pros going for it but it's great to see a newer person trying stuff out. Inspires me! Great job!

I actually really liked the little heart, I thought it was cute!
I love this chome nail!!! Nice work. 🩷💜💙

I’ve been practicing gel nail art too and it’s a fun, but frustrating process of learning though mistakes 😂❤ we got this!

I’m so new at doing my own nails. I’m learning a lot from your videos. Especially the patience needed 🩷
I think they came out beautiful! You've got a lot of patience 😊
Great job, thank you for putting this out❣ Freehand art is so hard. We are our worst critics....I've seen this look using Chrome powder in base or top gel and it was more sparkly than Chrome, but same look...😊
That was a great bit of work. Very talented. I loved the base color ❤
Saving this to watch later as your nail videos are so calming 💅🌛
Looks fantastic, James!! 💗💗
You inspire me to do my own nails! Even though I haven't done my nails in ages. ❤
Well done James!!! Just do two thin black coats next.
the nails give me Harley Quinn vibes. I like them alot ❤ I also appreciate you trying new things and working through your mistakes 😊 I think the nail came out great.
Pun intended... NAILED it
You are quite talented James. This is an enjoyable, peaceful experience.
I follow her. She is amazing! You did well!
That color combination is really pretty! You did a great job!! Yes, please do it again if you can!
So pretty. I like the dimension of the heart but I know you can’t have uncured gel. 💕🐾💕💜
James, i think that is amazing work. I loved the design, and you did such a great job. It just takes pracrice as you know. I love your nails. 🖤💜🖤
That|s the thing about artistic pursuits. Everyone's art looks different. I think it was very pretty and the end result was really nice. As for being expert like Mutsa, I think it's just that old adage: practice makes perfect. Great job!
Can you please do poly gel nails. They’re so satisfying to watch ❤
Oh piss, you've started a nail channel!!!! I've been so gone for so long; I'm just catching up.
Anywhooo... It absolutely made my day to see that you've started this journey! Maybe we can share tips now? 😂

Enjoyed this, thank you for showing the challenges. I thought you did well 😃
Absolutely love these great job x
This inspires me so much to do more nail art. You're doing great!
💜excited to watch this
you don't give yourself enough credit i loved what u did ..... what brushes did u use in this tutorial
How have I only just found this channel today, I am subscribed to your other channel? I always do this same thing wipe it off and start again but I guess that’s the fun frustration of it.
Well love you are pretty good at it
Can you try dip powder … its what I use and would love to see how you find it compared to gel!
looking lush. I do love how the chrome looks. Ive just trained up this year too and struggle with line work. dont know if its the gel or the brush
try experimenting with foil designs pleaseeee!
Ur to hard on ur self u did amazing,iv been a nail tech since 2005 and I'm horrible with art but I continue to practice 😊I'll get there but ur there hun we are our own worst critic 😮
I gotta be honest, I’ve never had an issue with curing a black gel polish, I’d say try curing for a full minute plus 30 secs to be safe. ❤
That was fun and funny. ❤
Hermoso diseño ❤👏👏👏🙏
I absolutely love this design! You did amazing! Also I heard you mention K-pop 😏 I would love to know your favourite groups and biases! 🩶
wow !! :)
Cute
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Did you apply topcoat on the black polish before applying chrome?
You did such a great job! You’re too hard on yourself lol - mine would’ve looked like poo
💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤
You may have covered this before but wouldn't it be easier for you to lay your hand onto the table rather than holding it up in the air?
❤
