    I have to give you so much credit! You have allowed yourself to open up to whomever wants the opportunity to learn new techniques, and without even asking for a dime to do it! Times are really hard right now and I have found myself wrapped in practicing nail techniques. I almost gave up due to not being able to find a monomer that didn't make me sick to my stomach, but then I thought about using gel! I haven't been able to purchase your product yet, but I figured I'd learn with using the cheap gel first! Thank you so much for your time and talent! GOD BLESS YOU 🙏 ❤

    I’m 69 soon to be 70 and I’m doing my own nails. I’m slow but do get a lot of good comments. I’m right handed so having to use my left is really slow but doable. Love your videos. Really helps me a lot. I’ve been able to purchase some of your products on amazon. Sooo happy about that. Can’t get your tube gel or drill and since I’m not a qualified tech can’t buy through a supplier in Canada. I’d like to make it clear I do not work on anyone else just me. But thanks again for your helpful videos.

    This product seems to be great I haven't e nails for over 15 yrs but have kept up my license hoping one day to once again be able to something I loved doing for 15 ys before I got injured in a job I took for insurance purposes, I had a child, so I often use to come home at 1:15 PM and start doing nails until 8PM. I have missed out on all the new stuff, gels, acrylic colors but I only live on my disability check of less than $800.00, paying Bill's and insurance plus cell phones. I hope to buy one color at a time in acrylic n then work on your gels. Great work, the comments are pretty great.

      @@cmayo5659 (very late reply but I hope this helps!) I'm not SUPER clear on the specifics of the chemical make-up of polygel, but from what I understand from working with hard gel, polygel, and acrylic, polygel is basically just a MUCH, MUCH thicker hard gel. It is still a gel, but because of just how thick it is it can be easier to work with than hard gel for beginners. Personally, I think polygel is awesome for people doing their nails at home; I used Makartt which is excellent in price and quality. But idk why you'd use it as a pro other than pure preference

    Thank you Greg!! I finally realized why I cannot get my precision applicator to work for me. I thought maybe I was weak and couldn't squeeze the darn tube - I think because it's getting too cold where I store it. Other than changing the location of where I store my products is there a way a warm the gel up for use but in a safe manner? Like, can I set the whole tube in a glass or jar of warm water to soften the gel enough to make it pliable or will that have a negative effect on the product? Thanks, guys!! ;)

    • @youngnailsinc
      @youngnailsinc  2 роки тому +1

      If you are working in an area that is cold, you can use a heating pad on your table and warm the gel up that way. Be careful though as you don't want the product to fluctuate temperatures on a regular basis. If this happens, it can affect the shelf life of the product. It is best to keep it at a consistent temperature.

      With every chemical reaction, there is a small amount of heat. The more product you apply, the more heat you may feel. You could try applying your product in thinner layers or with our lamp, you can use the "Low Heat Mode" to cure the gel slower to avoid that "heat spike."

    In terms of sanitization especially since covid, I’m curious what the guidelines would be for the tube gel?
