It is an emergency! You need a video about hygiene, how to avoid cross contamination and how to keep the tools disinfected, including the drill bits ... you would be the first to have such a video on RU-vid, specially now that you are doing this entire series.... 😘😘

Just wanted to add to the comment she made about boiling water and brushes. When she mentions this, I do believe she meant to state that when you use the boiling water to fix the bristles on your brushes, be sure to ONLY use the boiling water on the bristles. Do not put your entire brush into boiling water. If you do the glue that holds the bristles in place will liquify and the brush will fall apart. Sounds like common sense but I made this mistake once and I was so upset. Just trying to save someone some money. Great video very informative. Xos

Translation for painters: cats tongue brush is a #4 filbert, striper brush is liner brush, clear gel is soft gel glossy, synthetic brush is gold taklon, kolinski brush is sable, basecoat or foundation is gesso, slip layer is ground cover, top coat is varnish, working with gel enhancements would be to oil paint as working with acrylic enhancements is to acrylic paint. 😎

Another great video in this series! I applaud you for stressing the warnings of not allowing uncured gel /monomer to touch skin. People don’t understand how critical this is in order to avoid allergies. I’m one of those techs who now suffers from contact dermatitis. I thought I was doing everything right. Never was it stressed in all my many courses how dangerous it can be to not exercise caution. I’d love to see you address this in a practical way. How can someone like me continue to work without further damage. I double glove, wipe everything down, wear an apron, mask etc. it’s not about stopping to use nail products but rather how to safely protect ourselves and clients so that we create beautiful nails in the safest way possible. In my opinion, these measures need to be taught & reinforced as part of every nail curriculum/workshops😍

@mookzmom 5 лет назад

I think you need more brushes. Lol. All great info once again. I see so many people working with gel and wiping excess with bare fingers instead of wearing gloves or using something else to wipe. I have heard that allergies to gel products are alarmingly on the rise. I wouldn’t want to see the feds take away our access to these lovely things. So, I’m careful, even though I only do my own nails. And I tell others to be so as well. Thanks!

What a great idea to mark your brushes by color coding them. Thats smart and something I never would have thought about doing. Thank you so much for the tips and advice!

@andriaduncan5032 8 месяцев назад

I realize this is a very old video -- 5 yrs is practically an eon, in internet terms -- but it was helpful for this gel newbie! Also -- and I know this is completely off-topic, since the topic is nails and brushes for them, but I think it every single time I watch one of your videos, whether old or new -- but you have the most perfect eyebrows I think I've ever seen. Eyebrows are kind of a "thing" to me, which is just one reason I love Jack Nicholson and Michael Keaton, their eyebrows are absolute geniuses; eyebrows are just something I always notice. I wish I hadn't grown up in the 70s, when we wore very thin eyebrows, and now mine just can't recover from all that merciless plucking.

@tinacampbell2610 5 лет назад

Thank you for these videos. Great refresher course, I’ve been out of gel for a long time (10-15 years) I trained as a professional Nail Tech and let my license lapse. The gel products have changed for the better in all these years; been wearing gel since the beginning of 2018 and love seeing all the new info and products. I am a true gel convert from acrylic, your info is so great as a refresher and for new people wanting to know about gel. Can’t wait to see all what you cover in this series.

Thank you for also emphasizing on keeping our skin safe from chemicals, and of course our clients, especially since many don’t realize that allergies can develop over time due to overexposure.

You're a fantastic instructor. I am on a journey to learn everything I can about everything nail related. And right now I'm beginning to start gel art even though I bought a inexpensive set of gels this is just the beginning but my thing is I want to know what each brush is because the tutorials that I've watched act like they're all the same because they've never learned. So thank you oh and the word for "glidey" is viscous and I also can't wait to learn about viscosity of different gels.

@TyraHigh 4 года назад

You are VERY informative and informed. I do thank you for this valuable information. You are also very soothing/monotone. I fall asleep to all of your videos. To maximize your audience and reach make shorter more targeted videos. Like a brush series: Cleaning, Synthetics, Natural, Best for Acrylics, Best for Designs etc. It’s much easier to retain shorter bursts of information targeted to specific needs.

@dglavin2521 4 года назад

Great you brought that up! A busy life with kids, work and school, on top of having adult ADD, it would be my absolute preference to watch a shorter video. Especially when I need to hear something again - it would be a little easier to rewind and quickly find it😊 However, like you, I find that her thoroughness, professionalism, combined with a soothing tone, is what draws me to her videos....perfect for easy listening when you have the time❤️ She's wonderful🤗

I have a question, I do nail art using regular nail polish and acrylic paint for any details and drawing. Can I use acrylic paint over a gel polish or color? And then put a gel top coat and cure? Or is it recommended to use gel paints for nail art? I'm just a bit nervous using gel paint for my nail art because I have never done it it before! Thank you! :)

@lindat1879 5 лет назад

not sure where i heard or watched or seen ... i heard that its best to keep multiple brushes clear, color, glitter ... it gets crazy having to get them all out some of my clients go why you have 10 brushes out lol and then i have to explain why ... i like to have a flat and round and brushes just for toes ... so crazy and i so need to order kokoist from you need to try them out heard they are good ... great video

@cathysmith2451 4 года назад

Its the synthetic in the middle and of course I love the natural one on far left too. Can you tell me what sizes those are? thank you again for all the great work

@nearsightedwoman 7 месяцев назад

Thank-you so much for this helpful (as always) video lesson. Questions: I use a few different brands of gel; they are all HEMA monomer free, but potentially still have formula differences. Do I need to get clear gel in the same brand as the gels that I'm using? And if I'm not cleaning my brushes with cleanser after each use, do I need different brushes for the different brands of gel that I use? I'm wondering if the residual gel on my brush will be enough of a formula compatibility risk if I'm using another gel brand than the one that I used previously?

@suvette72 3 года назад
