Girl I found your channel about 2 weeks ago, and let me tell you... You ha e brought my groove back. I use to love doing hair, nails, and makeup. I even went to beauty school, only finished the hair part, and barely started the nail part when I had my daughter. Fast forward now many many years later and I am finally getting back into my loves again, especially nails since I found you. I actually just ordered a bunch of nail materials to try and play around with again and get back into it slowly. You are very mesmerizing and I could watch you all day long! Thanks girl xoxo
Your welcome doll! if you get dual forms watch my previous video first, that way you will know which ones to get. Good luck to you and your nail journey :) xoxo
I have dual forms when I started doing gel (after years of using acrylic) But the gel has been cracking and breaking easily so I went back to acrylic. So glad I found your channel. I will try this!
It’s so strange but when I started using polygel I hated the dual forms so used normal forms and built the nail, this was much easier for me but acrylic is the opposite!
Try putting the poly gel on your nail first and place the nail form over it and fix underneath the nail form to flatten out and make your length. Hope this helps. It works wonders for me.
Yes! I won't say that I don't use tips and glue, but it is very rare that I do. I prefer building a nail with Polygel or acrylic... *Thank you so much for tuning in* xoxo
I wanted you to know that your video inspired me to give my first dual form acrylic a shot and ggggiiiirrrrrrlllll. I killed it!? I love you. Honnneeeyyyyyyy you rocked my world Thank you! So much!
I was so nervous that it was drying in the dual forms! Ahh but then it comes out amazing. I was so done with acrylic but I guess we're back! 🥰💖 I love the color Sis
OMGoodness.... you got me!! I’m a old timer ( since the mid 80’s) who believes in being open minded ...you can always learn something new. You got me. Well done my dear well done! Going to make it mandatory for my students to watch this. All you videos. 😃 BTW... Jacksonville here. Not far from you.
Omg gurl! Heck yea..... GAME CHANGER!!!! So I'm self taught on here from u amazing techs and so far the only method I got down pat is the femi beauty method..... thought I could only use polygel! I'm super stoked to know I can use acrylic too bc I started learning with acrylic (thinking it was the hardest, tho since I've learned nope, putting anything on top of a nail is hard for me shaping and smoothing), so this is definitely the video I've been needing! I got so much nice acrylic I need to use so thank u so much for this video! Double bear huggies from Ky! I love ur channel and will b back for more!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! I’m doing dual forms for the first time when I wake up. You’re video worked so much better than the previous 11 I just watched! Easy instructions and those forms slipped off with such ease. I am sick of making appointments to get my nails done and paying so much for something I can do myself. I’m giving your way it a go. Fingers crossed 🤞
I just recently started watching these nail vid's and I must say your video's are one of my Top 3. I've already subscribed to yours because of your enthusiasm, wit and willingness to educate/teach the viewers. You make it look so interesting to watch and easy to do. Watching and listening to you got me seriously thinking, I can do this. I'm thinking I probably should start with the Dual Forms and the PolyGel. On that note, what must a sister do to get in on one of your "Give-a-Ways" :) I've heard you speak about!?! Thanks and keep em' coming.
Well 1st of all thank yoooooou! 😍😘 2nd you are right lol I have had like 8 or 9 Giveaways and I announce them in the videos. So just stay posted... Do you have any ideas what I should give away?
What an amazing Idea.. I'm definitely going to try this.. I have arthritis and it takes me 3 days to do my own acrylic nails.. This will be a life saver for me .. Thanks for this amazing tip !!! I just Subbed you too Keep Up the great work 💕
I love the colour Nikki it’s a gorgeous light pink & so sparkly, your videos are very informative dear thank you for sharing, have a lovely day Nikki👍🏽😊
I typed Something in the search bar and your video was the first to pop up. I saw this video when you first made it but I forgot about it & let me just say guuuurl it pays to go back and watch old vids cuz u just gave me an idea. 🤗 I loooove ya work
I loooove your video! You are so personable and entertaining! It was soo helpful. My daughter wants dual form nails so I am starting the process! I will be referring to your video! Thanks a bunch!💜💜
Yaaaay send me photos on IG (I'm nosey) Also make sure u use thin layers in the dual form that way you have room for the wet bead (the last bead that actually artaches to your nail plate)
Hi Nikki, your nails are gorgeous and you did shine in this video once again. You are just full of goodies. I'm so excited I found you. Now you should know what I'm going to ask. Give up the recipe on Sis. Gotta have it NOW!!! Thanks. ⚘⚘
Aaayeeee you like sis?! Thank you love! OMG appreciate that... I made Sis w a few different chalk (yes chalk) that I grinded up and mixed with clear acrylic
@@marcelaflores8724 there are acid primers. Non acid primers and bonders... now the non acid primers although they sometimes have acid in them it is not the *same* acid so there is less of a burn when using it... also they work differently... 😉 I'll make a video soon...
@@titch_can_i_nail_it3847 think nail hub has a video on this, her latest videos have been brilliant. Acid primer makes little pits/spaces in the nail for better adhesion, non acid primer is just similar to double sided sticky tape.
2 years late to the party....OMG thank you for this video!!! I have a set of dual-forms from trying polygels, and I'm just getting into trying to do my own acrylics, so I was wondering about this very question!
Girllllll I can try this with the ASP Dual Forms that I have. Maybe I won’t need the press on’s after all LOL 😝 You always give amazing videos.... I needed some other ideas until my mail gets here lol thank you luv duv 💜💜💜
Hahaha Girl how did you know I was yelling at my phone stick that on there Nikki even if it is wet Omg girl . Jkidding You always make me laugh girl. I get really impatient lol. Love that color acrylic turned out very pretty I love acrylic it is my absolute fave. I love mixing my own acrylics. Tyfs!!😍
@@NailedbyNikki I know right me too I am like what is she doing hahaha I love it though I may try it that way. I love my polygel too I just don't wear it is much. I am just so use to acrylics I keep going back to it. But I am really excited to try it with dual forms hmmm girl think I am going to try this. Ty😘
Game. Changer. omfg I'm trying this with my janky polygel THIS WEEK!! My biggest problem with polygel is keeping that doggone dualform in place while I cure. So basically we're making whole nail press/glue on nails except for the last part. girl I'm so excited!!
@@marianalopez3132 I still can't get the forms down....I mean it looks good on top but the underneath is straight garbage! Someone suggested using a nail form with a dualform on top but I haven't tried that yet.
I love polygel too... and yes it take 12 years to remove some of them. LOL not all of them are like that though. If you have an E-file you can just drill them off it is easier than trying to soak them
Using the duals forms look so easy. Waiting on the ones I ordered from Amazon to come in. Looking forward to using for poly gel and acrylic. I love the color of Acrylic u used
Oh wait a minute, are those nails on the hand the toy nails that little girls like to wear? Or could u use those to practice? I love watching you girl, I am binging right now on your videos. And hey, back in the day, the no lift nails was what I used, it use to be like the cheapest brand, but I hear alot of u ladies love it. I seriously flashed back to my day when I saw that label on the primer...thank u Ms Nikki, my inspiration
