I’ve seen some terrible damage caused by “professionals”. I am so pleased you mentioned foot cream for the hands. I thought I was the only one using it on my hands! I’ve not tried Kerasal but will give that a go. I love your videos. 🥰😘

Thank you for explaining the cuticle vs the skin. I was an extreme nail and cuticle biter and after watching this video and using these methods especially how to remove the cuticle instead of cutting the entire skin part that most nail technicians always do. I now have beautiful healthy nails. My skin around the nail bed is still inflamed from years of biting but it’s getting better and better Thank you 🙏🏻 .

Excellent, again, no chatter, clear background info, real life examples!! If someone is trying to economize, on my heels I use Cerave SA lotion (has 4% salicylic acid, almost as much as Kerasal) , then I put a little bit of petrolatum (Vasiline) on top. Get the petrolatum in a tube so you're not sticking your fingers in a tub when you have other products on your fingers. Going to give the Eucerin a try!!

thank you so much for your videos!! I've just realized I've been pushing back the skin waaaay too aggressively. and i have a bad habit of scraping the cuticle off while it's dry 🙈🙈 i usually have a lot of flakiness and it gets me 😑 I've known about the healthy nail care routine and about Doug Schoon for about 7 years now, but it's always been a back and forth process for me. most of the time I'm motivated to moisturize and be gentle and it's great. sometimes i just don't care and everything gets dry and i get hangnails and even cut the skin, knowing well it's bad. i love how you always can find something new, learn another technique or new tips :) even if the basics are rather simple. never hurts to revisit them! it's very inspiring to keep going ♥️

Thankyou so much for this explanation! I recently had Russian manicures that filed away the excess proximal fold skin and it just grew back. I'm going to take a break from salon manicures while I address the excess skin with moisture and gentle pushing back consistently and then just do my nails at home. It will be much better for me to just maintain it myself.

@aquariaaustin2077
@aquariaaustin2077 Год назад
LOL--I just picked up the Kerasil yesterday, before seeing this video. Can't wait to try it. Another great (and cheap) tip for keeping your feet moisturized--it will sound crazy, but this works: Putting Vick's Vapor Rub (or a store brand) on your feet. It's what hospitals and nursing homes use for their long-term patients, whose feet get super dry from being in socks (or sheets) all day. Bonus: Something in it also prevents fungus growth. I use it once a week, but it's greasy and messy. That's why I usually put it on before bed, throw some ugly fluffy socks over it, and then go to sleep. Get up in the morning and wash my feet well. Done. I'm hoping the Kerasil will be less fuss and muss.

Omg this has been sooooo helpful!! I recently started working at a mens nail spa, and so many men come in with insane cuticles. I'm now realizing its been taking me forever to clean their cuticles because I was over pushing! And I've never been too happy with how they look because it just looked dry and so much excess skin. This just gave me another boost of confidence! I was getting worried I just suck as a nail tech 🤣 we all learn and start somewhere
@TheSalonLife
@TheSalonLife Год назад
Hello :) I'm glad my video helped. But it's not the cuticles but the skin around their nails is just dry and probably stretched. Not cuticle. Cuticle is the thin film on the nail that is barely visible. Guys usually are pretty straightforward are very understanding, great clients. I just tell them that this is skin (living skin) around their nails that is dry and stretched because it's been stuck to the nails. If they want their hands look nice they need to nudge that skin back every couple of days and use ointment like Kerasal at night. You do not suck as a nail tech :) We expect too much from ourselves. We can't fix lack of care. Also suggesting balm like Burt's Bees after hand washing usually works for guys. Usually they are not into using anything in nail polish bottle ;) Unless you are MSL (Mr. Salon Life)

Forgot to mention….OMG the kerasal foot cream used around you nails and prox nail fold is amazing! It’s getting rid of all that messiness on my skin area around my nails. My hands spend too much time in water washing them with the kitties, so it suffers. Getting better since using OPI oil and hand and nail creams.

this is so helpful! I've always been self conscious about my nails/cuticles as I tend to pick at them when I'm nervous/stressed - so they are stretched and sticking up in most places. I've never known how to care for them, most people I knew just had nice cuticles already! I'm excited to take these cuticle care steps so I'll feel better about how they look. Hoping to get them looking nice in a few weeks and maybe I won't feel the need to mess with them so much :)
@TheSalonLife
@TheSalonLife 3 года назад
Exactly! If the skin around the nails is smooth and healthy there is nothing to pick. If the skin around your nails is hard then I suggest urea based cream at night. I use tiny bit of Kerasal at night. You use a tiny bit, it lasts forever Here is a link: amzn.to/3dy31F7

Very helpful! I been saying that for years!! Push them back and moisturize, try not to cut. I only cut the tiny little pieces that are sticking up (and only dead skin) never the whole fold. My husband’s nails were awful, but just after a few manis they are so much more manageable! He was a nail biter and I noticed it was the dry skin he was after, not the nail. So it made the area around his nails even more callused. Now when I see him trying to bite, I know he needs a mani! Lol. I’ve been pushing my proximal fold back for about 27 years now and I hardly have any cuticle or fold at all now! I also use cuticle oil at least once a day. Thanks for an informative video! Great job!!

Thank you so much for this informative video, you've got yourself another subscriber. I'm studying for my state board exam to obtain my license in cosmetology and I really want to learn about nail care specifically to help my husband out. I was taught the basics in manicuring so that I can simply get my license but it feels so empty. Yea we learned about nail diseases and health conditions and what not but promoting health and assisting in the healing process is exactly what I want to learn. I really want to help my clients maintain healthy nails because I've noticed so many people (usually of really older age) get hesitant when their nails begin to ache and it prevents them from enjoying certain activities. Nails are such a sensitive area! Thanks to these videos I also learn what to look for in products and which ones to buy. I love that you showed alternative methods to address certain things that still leave you with the desired results. Again, thank you very much for this. I can only hope to continue to grow further as a cosmetologist. Wish me luck on my state board exam in April 2023.

Yes, you should be able to. Once the product is bonded anything applied on top (other than acetone of course) is not going to make it lift.

Oh the amount of slack I get for not cutting that skin. Especially on the recent video I did. ru-vid.comKhiNmC4o90M?feature=share Most of them rude. No wonder many people skip going to salons if some nail techs are that aggressive and that rude.

Seriously... I've pretty much given up trying to go to salons. So aggressive and careless. The latest one I went to claimed she's "always gentle" and then proceeded to buff off the top layer of my natural nails for no good reason and refusing to use ridge filler instead saying it wouldn't look good... What's the point of temporarily looking good if it means damaging my poor already damaged nails? 🥺

Hello Cielo! Look at it as gaining experience! And learning what not to do ;) Clients need to understand that they need to do some maintenance between visits. Just like flossing and brushing teeth between dentist visits, they should use cream/oil daily and push back the skin around the nails weekly. You can still use the file safely, I explained it a bit in my recent LIVE too. Check it out :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JubO3D1QFdA.html

Exactly. The more gentle the better. Less risk of bacterial infection too. You can have the cleanest tools ever but when you create a micro trauma and touch dirty surfaces when you leave the salon god knows what you can pick up.

I am having some cuticle issues myself. I got a cuticle pusher not too long ago,and I have tried to be as gentle as possible. However,I still have a thicker growth of skin despite using a cuticle pusher on a regular basis. I have not tried nail conditioner or nail glue but may add that to my regimen. I think that I may have some type of skin issue though because the thickened skin around the cuticle is red(luckily though not painful but more of a nuisance at the moment) so I am certainly up for any suggestions guys. Will nail conditioner and nail oil work to for excess skin growth around the big toenail cuticle to help soften it over time?

Gentle care, avoid harsh soaps and soaking your hands in water. After each hand wash apply light lotion like Cerave Moisturising lotion and dab of oil on each nail. Then at night urea based cream and vaseline on each nail. Constant care and protection of the skin is the only way to go. Skin gets softer when its protected. It gets harder and callused when it's abraded, cut, picked at and abused.

Oh thank you!!! I have thick overgrown skin (yes I thought it was cuticle too!!). In the past when Ive gone to a salon they always cut it. I hate it when they did that because I felt like that part shouldn't be cut. I should have listened to my gut! So, now they are thick and overgrown. I will do as you said and moisturise, gently push back and continue to do this until they are back to normal. I am about to do my first dip mani but now wonder if I should hold back on that until my skin is not thick and overgrown like it is now??? If only I could find a manicurist that took the time and care with my nails, then I would be so much happier.
@TheSalonLife
@TheSalonLife 2 года назад
Hi Monika! So sorry for such late reply! For sure the skin will heal and it will look so much better. I also used to cut the skin around my nails but since I stopped it became much softer and it shrank. The key is to do this on a very regular bases. Like every 2-3 days. Just a gentle push back of the PNF. And lots of good hand creams and oil. Please let me know if you went for that dip and how did that go. If you want send me a picture thesalonlife[at]gmail[dot]com and I might be able to give you some feedback.

@@TheSalonLife thank you! I have been using a nail oil every night and my skin isn't looking at thick anymore. Unfortunately 4 days after my dip they started to lift (on Christmas Day of all days!!) and I did the worst thing and pulled them off. I know!!! Stupid me. So my nails are not in the best shape to do any more dips. I am now bringing them back to good condition before I start again. I enjoyed the process of the dip and found it to be easy but I think I really didn't prep the nails too well (cuticle on the nail). It also could be because of the way my nail grows, but lifting after such a short time could only be because of bad prepping, not growth. When I do it again I will def email you to show you. Thank you and Happy New Year. ♥

Mistakes happen to all of us. Just keep practicing and be comfortable with saying no :) If a client ask for something you are not comfortable doing just say “I’m not comfortable doing this at this time” or if it’s something you shouldn’t be doing (like cutting living skin) you can always say “in my professional opinion living skin should not be cut (show them the living skin) so i can’t cut it” Practice as much as you can to build confidence. Confidence comes with time and practice. Good luck!

@TheSalonLife 3 года назад
Just stopping the cutting and using the creams I mentioned. It takes couple months sometimes if the skin has been cut or abraded. Much less if the skin is stretched only due to not being pushed back. Then usually when clients use creams/oils it takes 2-4 weeks. :)

Hi Anna, I wanted to know should I keep pushing the stretched proximal nail fold even if it is stretched like 2mm. When I try to push them back using the wooden stick, it keeps going under that stretched skin. I cleaned some cuticles that are under the skin which is great. But when push the stretched skin using a different angle it keeps on coming back stretched like how it used to be. Should I continue to just push the stretched skin ... is there something else I can do to help? Because I actually see the wooden stick under that skin and doesn't feel like live skin instead it feels dead skin.
@TheSalonLife
@TheSalonLife 3 года назад
Yes, that's normal. The fold is just that, a fold, which doesn't mean it's dead skin. Don't clean under it too much. Just push it back every few days after taking a shower etc. Use Kerasal at night, that will help to keep that skin flexible and it will exfoliate it. amzn.to/3dy31F7 It takes from 3 weeks to more if someone was cutting it or never did anything to their nails. Don't worry and be patient. Cutting it will make it worse.
