What is a Baby Boomer Nail?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- Hey, guys. So in today's video, I am going to be creating a French Ombre on a short nail. Yes, it's short nail season! OMG! How exciting?
So, today we have the wonderful Olivia as our special guest and firstly, I am going to be applying a tip to her nail with a thin layer of brush on glue. Once I've secured that on, I am going to cut the length off the tip with the Nail Tip Cutters because we are going short with the nail today and then I'm going to file that bad boy into shape with the 180 grit file.
So in order to create the nail, we are first going to wipe over the nail with Pure Acetone, Nail Prep Dehydrator and then Acid Based Primer. After doing this, we are going to apply a bead of Mega White Acrylic Powder to the nail, leaving bulk at the tip and then feather it out to the back. I'm then going to apply Natural Beige to the back and the bring it down to create that lovely blend.
We are then going to ghost that out even more by adding a little bit of Natural Acrylic Powder and you are going to pinch it to create a nice C-curve and finally, you are going to file it, buff over it, wipe over it with a little bit of Pure Acetone, topcoat it and then cure the nail.
Well there you are, guys. I hope you enjoyed this video and if you did, please give it a like, subscribe to our channel and share it around and I will see you in the next video!
Love ya!

My mother was from the 50s. They wore French tip manicures done by manicuring natural nails and colored it with white pencils underneath the tip. When acrylics became the rage in the 80s it was very expensive to get a French tip on them but we baby boomer babies loved them!
I love how she calls it a "short" nail, when for me is as long as I can go without hiting the wrong key on my laptop... 😄
It is so interesting to see the personal perception of "long nails"! :)
😂😂
That's as long as my dad will let me grow my nails before he cuts them himself
@@michaelanilsson7331 Your dad cuts your nails if you don't?.. May I ask why? That seems a bit controlling unless there's some sort of legitimate reason
Aelahuntress X it’s a normal thing for teens and children
I love how they look. I wish I could find a manicurist in my area that will do things like pinch the nail and a proper ombre.
You won't find them in shopping malls maybe in a spa or work from home or has her own place by appointment only. They're out there. Goodluck
keri try to learn to do it on yourself that is what I am currently doing 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️ try it and good luck!! 👍🏼 I’ve improved sooo much self taught
Kim Gibbons especially pinch the nail
Yessss
I have never gotten my nails done nor do I paint them, but I love watching you do your thing. If and when I decide to get acrylic nails, I hope I will find someone who is just as good as you.
Thank you for watching!! 😍💅
Ask that future nail tech if she watches UA-cam videos and if so who? That way you’ll know if they are creative in their mind set.
For the life of me don’t get it when people give you thumbs down. You’re an artist and so nice to watch you as well learn from. My daughter just came to London England to work and she will look you up for nails. We love nails. She will get some products for me from UK and especially yours. We love you both from Canada 🇨🇦❤️
This is how I like my nails. Just makes me feel simple and pretty.
I think the surge of the “ok boomer” meme has picked this up in the algorithm 😂
Hahaha! Most definitely
So she didn't create that title? Because I was wondering why.
My Nan wore her nails like that when she was in her 80’s. She used to say they were a wee bit classic like her. Lol 😉💅🏻
I like seeing you do shorter nails! It’s a nice change.
That’s my favorite nail! Favorite size, favorite color, favorite shape.
Gorgeous! I love the baby boomers.
This is soooo beautiful....... I love it... The length and the square tip just looks so naturally elegant!
You put so much effort into even the smallest details!! I stopped having my nails done because the techs wherever I went would do stuff like not glue the corners down and just acrylic over it and it would get caught on everything and just UGH
Lovely to see that you really take care of your clients' nails!
Thank you! I believe it is important to take care of details, as they are what makes people want to come back to you! :)
I ADORE this style of nail! The "Baby Boomer" vintage style and the length go together so well. I've always had just my natural nails, never any acrylics or gel nails done, but if I were to get them done I'd get this style. So pretty and classy.
I know this is not the type of nail you usually do for your videos, but I LOVE it. I want my nails to look like that!
Awww thank you! You have to try it then! 😍💅 xxx
Omg it’s so weird that you’ve done this video today! I did my first set of nails yesterday and tried ombré, I wasn’t happy with them because I thought they looked too wide. You have just explained exactly what my problem was- I hadn’t pinched! I definitely need to buy the pinching tool now, and rewatch your video on pinching, as I’m a bit unsure how long to pinch for and how to recognise when it’s the right consistency for pinching. Thanks again for another fab video Kirsty, Love ya xx
This is basically the pink and white french manicure but better.
Love Baby Boomer nails of any length!! Yours always look so nice Kirsty thanks for sharing!!👍🏻❤️😍
We like them short and long as well! Thank you for watching! 💅😘
What a lovely nail artist! I could listen to her all day!
Absolutely love ombré I don’t think it can ever go out of style♥️
It's gorgeous and perfect for any occasion! ❤❤❤
Such a great teacher you are that acetone trick is priceless thanks ;)
Kirsten, you’re my nail art inspiration. Thank you so much for all that you do and God bless! 🤗❤️🙏
Awww thanks! ❤❤❤
Love seeing the shorter nails done. I naturally have short nail beds and I’m a nibbler so when I remove my long nails for a new set, I always start off with a shorter length.
Love, love, love that!! 😍😍
I’m no where close to being a baby boomer, but I would wear those all the time!! ❤️
I follow you for almost 2 years and learn everything I know by watching you. Thank you you are an inspiration really 😘
I love the fact that you explained everything so well like why you’re doing each step. Especially the part about why you buff over the acrylic, why you rub a little bit of acetone over it. People never explain why they are doing things. I also love your hair it’s adorable!!!!
I like kirstys hair and nails,the lilac colour with silvery bits looks fabulous and the ballerina nails look like fairyland. Luvved the shorter French ombre,would like those myself.
That’s a great length nail.....that’s way more natural then what people do now days.
JLogefeil ok boomer
Girls with shorter nails are confident in their beauty. Girls with longer nails need the attention.
Quite possibly the most beautiful set of baby boomers I've seen yet. Lovely.
I have so much fun just listen to you. Because you are not just making a tutorial, but at the same time having fun, joking around, and that is what makes you stand out from others Artist.
I love your nails here the greyish white with the jewels is so pretty
Love those nails!!! I’m 66, born in 1953 and I’m afraid I would look like a witch wearing the long nails. But I I still love them.❤️🇨🇱🙋🏻♀️
The French manicure style for acrylic nails was super popular in the late 80’s and 90’s. Pretty much everyone who came into the salon I at worked at then wanted this done. Most of those women were from the baby boomer generation. It was the most requested style for acrylics and natural nails and the ONLY manicure ever requested for wedding’s. It was so boring after awhile. I really like this ombré rendition though. Very pretty.
I'm a baby boomer. This is my shape of nail that still allows me to type on the computer. I would love to have ballerina nails when going out or to an event. And bling them up!!
YOUR TALENT NEVER SEIZES TO AMAZE ME. THANKS SO MUCH! YOU ARE A JEWEL!!!
Love love watching you. It is amazing what you can do with gel and acrylic
I like that you only use a file and buffing block and not a drill/e-file. I do my own nails and only use a hand file and buffer. 💪🏽
Am I the only person that dreams of one day being able to have my nails done by you and just let you do your own creative thing? I would be the happiest woman in the world I swear!!!
I wish I could get my nails done by her....very talented and creative.
I love all the fancy blinged out sets but I love these nails. ☺
I don’t have my nails done ever, but I love watching your videos. They’re so relaxing and mesmerizing.
wow u haved changed so much!! i remember watching ur vids years ago and ur voice is kinda relaxing so it was some weird asmr. now u seem so energetic and fun :) art is as beautiful as always
Thank you for watching! xx
Angela Sou Hmm.. Wasn’t that lady a different nail tech? I watched her years ago too and also noticed that in the new vids the lady in it was more energetic. I went back to the old vids and the two ladies don’t really look the same.. or am I wrong? Lol
Ok I just searched it up and the calmer lady in the Naio videos from 2012 was actually the co-founder of Naio, Gemma Lampbert. The lady in this vid is the other founder, Kirsty Lund. So mystery solved, there were two nail technicians!
Love, love, love baby boomer nails 😍
Thanks for sharing Kirsty 💕
How can anyone not like this video? Thanks again for another fun and informative tutorial Kirsty. I always look forward to your next vid.
Have you ever considered doing some nail art on a livestream? That would be amazing!
Kirtsy does them sometimes on her Instagram 😘😍💅💅 xxx
Thanks! I'll have to follow
Thank you!! I have searched everywhere for a video of baby boomers on short nails and nothing!
Beautiful! Perfect natural ombre.
It’s popular with boomers because it’s understated and yet elegant.
Lord I wish I could have you do mine on a regular basis . Love your work.
This is one of those times where I find good asmr in an unexpected place
She has great hands I never thought I would be jealous of hands but I am haha
Hahah 😍xx
I love watching the baby boomer tutorials I can perfect my own baby boomers now Thanx Kirsty
Hah i found my self blowing the screen of my ipad for the nail pollish to dry. ... ... does not work. I will get my led lights ready next time.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Love this!!!!
🤣🤣
My 4 year old daughter love watching you while I paint her nails
It's funny I grew up in the south in America and this style to this day is the one most everyone wears.
I LOVE the tinsel in your hair!!!!
I think they look great. Some work places will not allow people to have long nails and no tips. Something to do with the food industry health codes.
For myself, I am a tall broad with really long fingers. When I wear anything much longer than this length, I look like ET searching for a phone 😂
I got my first set of nails 31 years ago. That was the shape then and I still get that.
I’ve been getting a lot of requests for this length lately. Love your hair!
Your so talented it's very calming watching you do nails,such an art I'm from Stoke you sound like you have a Stoke accent, thanks for giving us great ideas,🤗🤗🤗
I think this is one of the best designs on short nails😻.
I'm an 80s girl (early gen x) and there were a lot of traditional nail colours around then (reds, pinks etc) but I was all about the weirdest and most wonderful colours I could find. My prize nail polish was a cobalt blue colour. In the 90s more diverse colours were coming out, and I got my first holographic glitter polish in the mid 90s. I also had a tiny crystal hanging off my left pinkie nail. My mum was a baby boomer and her favourite look was pale pink almond nails. She thought red polish was for wild girls.
I love these nails, and your hair! Love from Philly. 💅🏻💖👍🏼
bravo ces magnifique très jolie gros bisous Martine 👍👍👍👏👏👏💅💅💅😘😙👄👄❤
WOW! You are a magician!
Jewelry piercing something new. Love love the fact u r doing short nails. I work in a grocery store for certain I would break a longer nail like yours. And I always keep mine shorter and I love the look
Awwe, I love the freckles on her hands!! I have them and try to hide my hands because I’m embarrassed by it!! She makes it so cute!!!
Freckles are cute Alisha, you should not be embarrassed by it!🥰
I think baby boomers prefer this as it is practical (the shortness..) and they look like clean, soft, healthy nails that go with any outfit.
Such a classic look!! Thanks for doing these 💜💜
Such a beautiful nail- simple & elegant
Love yuh Kristy n Adam ❤
#notificationSqad.
Oh and I have literally watched all ur older videos too.. My day isn't complete without watching ur video. ❤
Absolutely love the shorter hair on you. And the color is great
Pretty, simple and not to long 👍😊💗
Would look nice in a light purple color too 👍
The perfect nail. I love it.
Excellently done!
Your truly are amazing artists tysmfs take care xxx
There was actually 2 baby boomer eras 1954-57 and then 1960. I'm a part of the 1960 baby boomers. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL 60/60 (anyone born 1960 who has turned or are turning 60 this year).🎉🍾🥂🎆🎶 Much love and blessings to everyone! Everyone please stay safe!🥰🖤🤎🕊👄
It is a relief to see you can do short nails! Lol! When I come to London some day I'm looking you up and I want you to do my nails!! 😁
Short vs. Long....I prefer short just because of my work and my other activities. I'm almost constantly on the computer and it's not easy to type with long nails, I also play flute and long nails sometimes get in the way of the keys, or they hit the flute and make click noises that don't always go with the music :D
I have a friend who wears very long nails. Her biggest complaint is that the first thing people ask her about her nails is "How do you wipe your butt?"
Same here. I ditched acrylics when I picked up violin and I'm on the PC 70% of my day
That is my question as well
Adam is correct! That nail shape & the French are big amongst baby boomers.... I am one! Lol! Only I'm more of your "edgy" type of BB... I like sparkles & designs. One of my favorite is a little on the longer side (still boomer shaped though, a "sqoval" is what we call it, w/a ombre chevron French, they usually air brush it the chevron. That's my "norm", but I do tend to get crazier depending on any plans I might have.
What you call "a short nail" I call it " a long nail"
I love it when you do shorter nails 😊 I'm useless wearing anything longer than 5mm
You should try this design out! Definitely perfect for any occasion :)
@@NaioNailsOfficial I will certainly practice it, thank you 😁
Fantastic job!! They look gorgeous!!
Love ombre nails 💅
I am loving your videos. I’ve only started having gel polish with structure gel on my nails this summer. I just couldn’t grow them without them breaking before . But now they are the longest they’ve ever been. But I do fancy some ombré acrylics like that. They look lovey !!
I wish I lived near enough to get you to do my nails 😊💕
I freaken love your nails... they are defiantly to long for me but I love them they are so cute!!
Aww! Thank you for your comment! 😍😍
I love babyboomer 😍 But everytime i make them on my own nails i’m feeling like i’m missing something so i usually end up adding a crazy amount of stones lol 😂
Bling is never enough, we know 😂😂😂
Never go wrong with stones!
Or glitter!
You are the best teacher ever. All I know its about looking your videos and enjoying of good humor. I ordered some from the page and I'm excited to tried in maself and clients 🙏💗💗💗💗.. make some video about the new metallic files sticker and some monomer without smell 🙈❤.
Yay! Short nails! I have short nails.
There's a bottle of polish behind Kirsty that has no label 😲 . And 2 that look like they're backwards 😕.
Great definitions of baby boomer nails. Never would of thought.
Awesome video girl and I love your nails! This video is really helpful I love how you explain things step by step.
I'm going to try this with blue and pink sparkle acrylic.. 💖💙💖💙💙💖
I remember where I got my Dappen dish like you have. It’s the Hershey Kiss 💋 lead crystal candy bowl with lid!! Hth anyone who wants one.
Thanks!!!! :)
Can you tell me if i can order online? Thank you for sharing!
Does it closes off really well? I have a plastic cover on my little jar so the sent/product can't escape

So quick and great awesome 9
Your work is beautiful. I so enjoy watching your creativity
