It is refreshing to find a nail channel about repairing and perfecting the natural nail. That’s what I’ve always wanted to do. Excited to do more exploring.

@TheSalonLife 11 месяцев назад

Thank you so much! I’m so glad you are enjoying my videos. I absolutely love natural nail care and I try to make it easy, simple and inexpensive. I mean I have some high end stuff that I use but basic care is simple and pretty much anyone can learn it :).

@merryjulianamenden2371 Год назад

I have become a devoted watcher of The Salon Life. You are an excellent instructor, comprehensive in your approach to nail health, anatomy and physiology, treatment, and management of different issues. I suffered from acute renal failure last year, and my nails became brittle, and were peeling and ragged. I also have wider nailbeds. I followed your instructions, stopped using nail hardener, used Jojoba Oil every time I washed my hands, a nourishing nail cream at night, and learned to shape my nails watching your videos. I also bought the ultrafine diamond nail files you recommended. Six months later, my nails are healthy. I am so appreciative of everything you have taught me. Thank you ❣️❣️❣️

@robinh.8513 Год назад

Absolutely love that you do the shorter natural nails, so refreshing to see.

@sansiveria578 Год назад

What did we do to deserve you Anna 😇

@Laurelise Год назад

I love how passionate and committed you are to staying up on the science of anatomy and nail care!

@gailsykes2691 Год назад

Thank you for confirming that glass/crystal files do not seal your nails. I have used various brands over the last 15 years or so hoping to seal the nail edge to stop them from peeling, they didn't work. I do like this type of file but you and your videos have done so much more for my nails than these pricey files. Your knowledge is astounding 😍

@seanpatterson186 Год назад

Your a "wonder find " my nails and hand condition have improved with your practical advice thank you me and mrs salon life x

@PeppaTeaPig Год назад

Thank you SO MUCH. I have short hands and wide nails and I've always thought they looked awful. Nail salons don't really seem to understand my shape so I'm glad I can do at least the shaping myself

@TheSalonLife Год назад

I'm so glad!

@Keapix Год назад

I’m so glad I found your channel. The skin around my nails is already improving in just a couple of weeks!

@eileenboffo6300 Год назад

Such a fantastic teacher for beginners and also experienced technicians 👏

@mysoulcalledlife Год назад

I found this channel recently, maybe a few weeks ago, and I’m a housekeeper/chef, not to mention a nervous nail picker and biter so my poor hands and nails usually look absolutely mangled. I’ve been taking your advice seriously and diligently caring for my nails every day and they already look so so so so so much better!!!!! The cracks are healing, the skin around the nail is looking healthier and my nail beds are even improving. So grateful for this channel, thank you!🙏💕

@Dwynfal Год назад

I love my glass nail files because they give me a good result, are easy to clean and last a long time . I never bought into the hype about them though, just thought they worked great for me. I use coarser, bigger glass nail files to smooth out the edges of my giant breed dog's nails after clipping, a couple swipes each side does the trick. Honestly, I think that whatever file works for you is best, for you.

@mcrvm Год назад

Hello, i just wanted to say that I just love your channel so much!! Your work is so meticulous and clean and just so so beautiful. The natural manis you make are honestly perfect and I've learned so much from you, im simply obsessed with your watch me work videos haha. I hope you have a great day and keep up the amazing work

@MusicLover-sb7mo Год назад

Thank you! I like my nails short as I play guitar. Hearing that filing in one direction and using a glass file have been debunked was helpful. I struggle with shaping as my nails looks longer on one side or another depending which direction I look at them. The cutical oil treatment after each hand wash from your other video also extremely helpful. I hope to see better condition and shape following your advice.

@shannon5142 Год назад

Thank you Anna for this video! I struggle with shaping and filing my nails. 😢 I like my nails short and neat but they tend to come out uneven when I do them so I just cut them off with nail clippers. I will keep trying at it! 🤞🏾Thank you for all your in-depth informative videos! Appreciate you! 🥰❤️

@annearaullo2917 Год назад

Hi Anna: Could you please show us how you hold the nail file to maintain the correct angle? How do you file the sides of the mail without making it weaker? Lastly, how much pressure are you applying to the nail edge as you file & how do you know if you are pressing too hard on a client’s nails? TYVM

@taniajeffcott5957 Год назад

I would love to know this as well.

@Marta_Maeldeis Год назад

This is gonna help soooo many people!

@jennisherwood7455 Год назад

Thank-you! I have ways described my nails as bell shaped and the always crack and break and the quick. I'll try a more rounded edge. It's hard thought since I have such a deep C curve too.

@shirley-ann7164 Год назад

The gel polish color that you’re client had on het nails looks really nice. After filling and a another (gel) polish color you’re clients nails look amazing. I wish that you could do my nails. I learn some much from you’re video’s ❤

@angelheck1995 Год назад

Hello! It's so nice to see someone with my nail shape being shown!! If I wanted a more oval/almond shape to my nails would you recommend that? How can that be achieved with this nail size/shape?

@graceclermont2592 Год назад

@deborahlippmann9900 Год назад

excellent-- yes practice is KEY

@seanpatterson186 Год назад

Just got my glass fold (180 grit )plus a bottle of blue cross which I'll decant into a small dropper bottle I have a spray bottle of distilled water too for wiping off some..non acetone remover but running short so need alone acetone for acrylics and non acetone for plain laquer I find plain laquer polishes are more hard wearing tgen anything else so use it for work oiling after each wash and during changing varnishes and cutical removal befn pushing back my proximal nail folds to help soften the calcified cutical skin in and around the nail..and I must say all this practice is working well in my favour spending time caring for my hands and nails has given me more confidence and even gone as far as helped my depression and low mood ..once again thank you for your invaluable information and unobtrusive unobtrusive intervention the people you stumble across in passing are normally the ones that you actually need in truth ...thank u to you you both

@sandra37cooks Год назад

I bought the 3 Swords file but I had a little acetone on my hands and the plastic handle started to disintegrate/melt so I'm going to go ahead and and buy the file you're using in this video. It looks "Sandra" proof! Lol!

@mia_2524 Год назад

Love all your videos ! Could u do one on buffing the nails ( natural nails) the dos and don’t s 💗💗

@TheSalonLife Год назад

The answer is simple, don't :) The only time slight buff is necessary is to remove shine before polish to slightly improve the bond of polish I talked about it in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rITW2ZMpll0.html

@brinh Год назад

I'd really love to get one of the thin nail files like your Erica Diamond Hand File. Are there any products on the market that do this kind of stainless steel file in a 180 grit on one side and a 220/240 grit on the other? Just started watching your channel and you've helped so much already! Had a terrible nail salon experience a couple days ago and while correcting the manicure at home, used your nail polish removal tip and it worked flawlessly.

@seru6789 Год назад

Hello Anna ,could you please make a video on how to choose files for natural nails ..my nails are weak n brittle ..don't know which types should i use ..also same with the nail pushers n cuticle nippers ,Thanks .

@veronicavrotsos6436 Год назад

Hello! I am so happy to have found your channel. I have just started to watch various videos. My nails have never been great. And now they are even more weak and thin after chemo and estrogen blockers. I have been using jojoba oil w each hand washing for a few days and already see a difference! I have ordered Kerasal, and I will use it nightly. I will skip using OPI nail strengthener . I will use the Chanel natural manicure product you suggest instead. Please advice if you have any other suggestions for someone on chemo and an estrogen blocker. Thank you!!

@kokod9165 2 месяца назад

Hi, I’ve just found your page and it’s been really helpful. After about a decade of not doing my nails at all (a handful of trips to the nail salon which damaged my nails each time taking about 3 months to recovered each time) I decided to start taking care of them. I never knew I could ‘fix’ my wide nails. I wanted to ask, do I have to cut my cuticles? Whenever I’ve had them cut professionally it’s caused the skin to split and peel and it’s quite painful. Can I tidy them up without cutting? Many thanks 😊

@dottiejohnson5812 Год назад

I am confused about split nails. Should I keep filing them down when they are still split on the edges? Dot

@LadyShiver Год назад

Thank you for this video! I'm trying to get the nails of my middle fingers shaped better since they are extremely wide in comparison to the rest of my nails. I have been trying to get healthy natural nails for ages now. However my nails just keep tearing of (not really breaking) as soon as they grow a tiny bit too long. I've watched several of your video's now and initially I was really scared to use nail harder since I saw everyone saying it only makes your nails break more easily. But now I think I actually need nail harder. My nails are extremely flexible and almost see through and are really shiny as well. Nail polish (several brands) just falls off. It doesn't chip, I mean the literal whole thing just comes off in one piece within a day most of the times. I've started using Mavala since yesterday. I do have a question though. Since I do have very dry skin around my nails, do I also do hot oil soaks (as in can I combine that with the nail harder).

@adan4477 Год назад

Me too! My middle nail was like a triangle nd it annoyed me a lot. Esp when the girl that sits next to me in school has these wonderful well filed nails and manicured hands

@taniajeffcott5957 Год назад

Try Sistaco for your nails. I find it wonderful and together with all the tips on here, my nails are now much healthier.

@melodied4314 Год назад

I've been to at least 5 different nails and had dozens of technicians work on my nails -- trying to get this look. So far only one technician has succeeded. Usually my nails have different lengths and shapes. Perhaps I'll show them your finished manicure in hopes they "get it" so I can get the length and shape I want.

@lolmakeup5786 Год назад

Watching all your videos i think now my favorite polish is the clear coat you always wear. I was wondering what you like about the brightening polishes instead of just regular clear coat. Also do you have any white ones you like that are available in the US?

@TheSalonLife Год назад

I love the brightening polishes and I wear the Dior Nail Glow most of the time. I talk about it in todays video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q40D1UyujeA.html

How long should nails be to start shaping?

@estefanisantana4381 Год назад

You mentioned you watched a video by Kathy who taught you how to file. Can you share a link to that video you learned from? Would love to watch it

@TheSalonLife Год назад

Hi Estefani! That video was on DVD because it was like 20 years ago :))

@Kkimmyb Год назад

Can you do a video showing shaping and polishing on longer nails? A lot of people on Reddit follow your channel and many have longer nails (including me).

@TheSalonLife Год назад

Hi Kim, I can only show what kind of nails my clients have. Long nails are not very common. Non of my clients has or wants longer nails. Partially probably because I have developed this kind of clientele. People know me for making short, natural nails beautiful.:) This is my only client with longer nails ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ttePU6qJgzY.html

@Pamsmith59 7 месяцев назад

Anna, just noticing that you yourself have a wide thumb nail. If and when you do use press on/glue ons, is there a brand you use that fits you??

@TheSalonLife 7 месяцев назад

No, my thumb is kind of normal and normal tips fit me (can’t remember the number because I haven’t used them in years and years) but the nail bed is not very long so it might look a little wide

@JD-zt3nr Год назад

Anna, i think I must be missing something. I watched the video, but didn't notice anything different about this "wide nail" mani as any of the others. I have very short nail beds (the distance from the end of my finger to the proximal fold) and wide nails. I was hoping you were going to give some sage wisdom about how to make them look more long and narrow (since i'm sure there is no way to actually change -- i presume it's just genetics, right?)

@subhiksharengan Год назад

Can someone pls help me. I have been wearing nail polish for a very long time and now suddenly as soon as apply any polish gel or regular the thumb alone the finger tip goes extremely dry it's like something is sucking my finger. Is this some kind of allergy. How do I deal with it. I badly want to do my nails

@TheSalonLife Год назад

Any type of irritation or redness or inflammation or "dryness" which usually is a result of irritation is a tell tell sign of allergic reaction. Please see this video: THINKING ABOUT GEL POLISH? YOU NEED TO KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENS [ALLERGIC REACTIONS & OVEREXPOSURE] ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o_TntfuahsM.html This article is also important: www.beautyjournaal.nl/2022/02/08/material-expert-prof-albert-feilzer-large-increase-of-acrylate-allergy-due-to-gel-nails/ mentioned in this video Jim McConnell: bit.ly/3NTRIqA Doug Schoon on allergies: bit.ly/3NVtnAB

@lemon1653 Год назад

I still consider these long nails. Am I the only one who gets rid of the white part completely? It feels more comfortable to me, and is easier to play instruments. What can I do with nails that short? No hate towards this video though. I appreciate you making it and sharing all your wisdom with us 💛

@TheSalonLife Год назад

No, majority of my clients like short nails. I often get comments why I shorten clients nails so much LOL. Because that's how they like them :) Short nails (without any white) are beautiful too. I love short nails!! Very chic.

@adan4477 Год назад

I did that too, just this last file I left them a bit, cuz I noticed I was the only alien in mt house doing this, both my younger sisters leave the white till where fingers tips end and it was shocking to me that such a thing is called short nails too, lol, well, since I'm gonna be a doctor soon IA so don't think I'll have these new trends for long

I agree with the short nail love. In healthcare I don’t really have a choice

@CR-wq8jx Год назад

Wish you would have actually talked more about about shaping -what shape is best for different nails, different effect of various shapes. It’s not that helpful for you to say that you can only learn by watching someone. I don’t know what I’m watching in this video as my nails don’t look like this person‘s nails.

@TheSalonLife Год назад

Hi CR! I’m just doing what I can to help. Sharing how I leaned to shape nails. This is why I have many “watch me work” videos showing how i shape different shape nails. Everyone wants to learn “tricks” but I found that there are not easy ways and tricks. Learning takes a lot of patience and a lot of practice. Just like learning to play an instrument. You have to listen to a lot of music to develop an ear and then practice a lot. No one can teach someone the “easy way”. Maybe there is an easy way but as a nail tech of over 25 years I found developing an eye and watching the most effective.

@annab6948 Год назад

It is not to criticize you - you are the pro. But both in Poland - your native country, and in Russia (their nail technicians are excellent, BTW), they are adamant about using gloves while working. Why aren't you?
