I happened upon this video in my search for full set, fill in, and acrylic vs. polygel for beginners. I decided to stop spending so much money at the nail shop and learn for myself. have looked so many videos, I became exhausted and overwhelmed. This by far is the best. From the voice over to the process. I look forward to watching your other videos. Great job!
I really love how well you explain the process of the in fill. I loved watching your video and will use it as a guide to in fill my polygel set. Thank you for making the video.
Really lovely! Thanks so much for doing this video!!! Every other infill that I have seen when the base is a polygel they do the fill with a builder gel. So I kept asking myself why don't they just use the same polygel for the fill?! Thanks to this video now I know that you can, thanks again for sharing!
Loved watching this video. Never done this before myself because i have natural long nails, but i really want to train myself into doing nails like this! 😍💕
Ty I think I will attempt a fill in and two weeks I just re did a full set second attempt came out lovely I dread doing a full set again so soon so I'm gonna fill them hopefully my new drills arrive soon ty for the tutorial
How do you know when you need to remove the entire set? Or how do you know or can tell when you don't need to do an infill, but a whole new set?👀...I'm new to polygel and acrylics, and I'm very curious about how it all works lol 🤗💅🏻🤓....love this video btw!! ☺️💅🏻💯💯....I really want to try polygel nails😍💅🏻 looks fun and easy
Probably depending on how much lifting there is,if there isint much then u can remove it with a drill and just infill.If half of the nails are barely hanging on,te are corners missing etc.then its probably faster and easiert to just remove them and start again.Also if a client wants a completely different design like a french fade or a reverse smile line then you need to remove the nail
Yes as Kimi said it depends on how much lifting there is, it also depends on how the nails grow, if the nail grows downwards and the client or in your case if you wait to long to do a infill and the nail has grown to much downwards then, yes you could do an under file but sometimes it's just easier to take the whole nail off and build again. Also it depends on how the sides of the nails are looking if they break too much until you do the infill you could take the nail down and build another one, but being polygel you could build it easily on a form, of course you could do it without it too if you know how to work with the polygel. I hope it makes sense to you and that I helped you out a little 😁😚. Much joy at doing nails.
The polish u removed possibly looks like Purplexed? Such a beautiful color. Its on my list...as well as their polygel. Ty for sharing. It was very helpful.
Thank you so much for this vid. I just did my second set of poly gel nails and think I am getting better, but I still need to work at it. I wanted to know how to fill these and this vid is super helpful :).
Hello. New subscriber. If you wanted to switch to polly gel from old acrylic overlay, could you refill with the polly gel and then keep using it? Like would the polly gel mix with acrylic?
Thank You I have had my nails on 3 and a half months with no fills they charged me $101.00 before xmas and here it is March getting a new kit to try it myself only 2 had lifted the past few days
How do you keep the polygel brush from spreading and not being flat anymore? I used mine 2 or 3 times and now the brush isn’t flat anymore so it won’t shape as well as it used to. IDK what I’m doing wrong 😑
Julidza Martin Garcia Yes, it is. You can infill a polygel set with either polygel, hardgel or acrylics. As long as you use good quality products you’ll be fine
How do you feel about the polygels from this brand or Makartt?? Which brand do you prefer out of all of the brands you’ve worked with. I want to find something great!!!
What if mine have lifted slightly? Can I still refill ? Also I just paint mine with normal polish sometimes so can I remove with nail polish remover ?? I don’t have a electric file xxx
Do you have any other PolyGel recommendations? I don’t really want to order from outside the UK if possible. I am going to purchase the NaioNails AcryGel if I cannot find another one. I have heard good things about Madam Glam but I am a bit concerned about the shipping and cost factor, if you get charged at customs then it is just not worth it for me
I bought cheap polygel ( in Chile) and I do get lifting. I’m not professional but I think I follow all the steps to prep my nails. When I remove my polish (normal) , I can see all the lifting areas. Do you think there is a big difference in “cheap”(maybe fake or so) and well-known brands of polygel? Sorry if my English is not good
Mariel Guzman I know you arent asking me but maybe I can help. From what I've seen with cheap and named brand polygels it really comes down to prepping the dead cutical, dehydrate, prime and base coat. Ive heard the same from so many nail techs here on RU-vid. As long as prep is done correctly usually you'll have no lifting. Also be sure to not get alcohol on your bare nail. It will take off the sticky layer of your base coat and will also make the poly gel lift. Practice makes perfect!!! Good luck!!
no, it's supposed to more so mimic the texture of a real nail. they are much easier to file than hard gel, and you can actually clip them if they get too long unlike hard gel
Patricia Gettemeier-Hellrung It’s not so much the speed as it is the power of your efile. For removal I usually put it in 15-20K rpms. The power of mine is 65 wats. Get one with at least 30 wats of power or it won’t file properly. Also, make sure that when you use your right hand it is on foward and put it on reverse when you use your left hand.
It's not suddenly impossible to do so. It's as if your fingers grew longer. It's not difficult. Now mind your business rather than asking someone intimate questions that you can easily google
Marie Williams I am always happy to answer any questions (Bare in mind I get 100s a day so it’s hard... pretty much impossible to keep track of them all but I try my best) so maybe you should being a little more polite when asking people questions in the future.
