@vitafitification 4 года назад

I read that it is not healthy to keep it so long for your nails. It will weaken or dry out your natural nail and also if there is even tiny lifting bacteria can start to flourish underneath. But I'm not sure though if it applies to only press on nails or also nail extensions.

@marielanders1218 4 года назад

@@vitafitification It does consist of enhancements too. But as long as there isn't much lifting then you're fine. If you start to see lifting and it's in more than one place on your nail or if it's a bad lift then get a balance, fill in, infill, or whatever you want to call it lol.

@diannehijosa593 4 года назад

i think thats only because many people tend to bite them off or wait for them to break, but when they come up, it takes a few layers of your natural nails, leaving it thinner or easier to break

@shamare04 4 года назад

I think most nail salons drill the natural nail too much. At least this is the reason why I stopped getting acrylic sets . My nails were paper thin. You could literally fold them over and they woudn't break.

@NativeNYerChicHK 4 года назад

The reason it’s called a “hybrid” because that’s quite literally what it is, it’s a mix between gel and acrylic, both ingredients are in them. Some are more gel based (those are thinner and more pliable) and some are more acrylic based (those are thicker and take more strength to move around) but all are a combination of both ingredients.

Great timing! I just did my very first hybrid gel overlay on a broken nail day before yesterday, and I LOVE IT!!! I've never used anything but acrylic powder/liquid systems before, and the hybrid gel was absolutely AMAZING. I have kind of a LOT of acrylic powders and monomer so I probably will still use acrylic, but I will prefer to use hybrid, especially when my son is here because he HATES the smell of monomer with a blinding passion! To be fair, it does give him headaches, so I don't blame him. I didn't tell him about my nearly broken off nail, I just got my lamp and hybrid kit out and went to work. The filing was an absolute _breeze,_ and when I got done I went into his room to show him and he hadn't even known I was doing an overlay on a broken nail! He said he smelled a little alcohol, but it didn't bother him. I'm still shocked at how easy it was, how it doesn't need a primer and how odor-free the whole process really is. *I LOVE HYBRID GEL!*

Suzie, I love your tutorials and check your videos first whenever I have a question about technique! I am only a DIY'er with 20 years of painting my own nails. More recently, since finding your videos 2 1/2 years ago, I have expanded into gel nail polish, gel nail enhancements, and dabbled in acrylic (my least proficient skill). After your video on e-files that can be purchased without a license I have purchased one (that I LOVE). I use a new arbor band each time, but the metal bits usually just get dunked in alcohol. My question then for you is can you do a segment or something on cleaning and sanitizing your work station and all the equipment, like carbide bits, brushes, etc?

Wow ! Love the video and your explanation.I have tried polygel but not builder gel. thank you for the comparison. Maybe i will try both later. A quick tip: Before you shape the polygel on nail form, you don't have to dip too much alcohol. Dip and have a wipe on a cotton towel. Just keep the brush moist but not too wet. It really helps.

I have seen several videos of people mixim builder gel with acrylic powder to create "hybrid gel". Can you give it a try and let us know if it actually works?

@ashcashcarter 5 лет назад

that's gummy gel. I've done layers of gel & sprinkled acrylic powder on top before curing which worked pretty well for me. I'd suggest that method over mixing then applying,

@ynaartsasyouliveandbreathe3533 5 лет назад

I've done that. It's a bit of trial and error but it works, you get a solid product with the consistency of a hybrid gel and with decent adhesion. HOWEVER and I cannot stress this enough: those two products were not created to be mixed together, they each have different properties and curing needs so you may end up undercuring or burning your resulting hybrid gel. Typically, within 2-3 weeks the mix will change consistency a bit and color a lot, mine went from a lovely fairy pink to a greige purple; it still cured rock hard but without putting it through laboratory testing you can't tell if it's cured properly and you can't trust it to be healthy for you. Wear the mix at your own risk.

Suzie I love your channel you have the most soothing voice...my nail tech uses the hybrid gel on me and I love it because there is no heat spike...every time she used a builder gel and she tried a few I always got heat spikes which is a shame because builder gels really are clear 💜💅💜

@GemmaWeirs 4 года назад

@@NailCareerEducation Builder is quicker, but I have issues with a small amount running down the sidewalls onto my skin in the lamp even though I take care to apply it thinly. Hybrid is great but I find that it gets too gooey after I've worked it for a little while, even though I keep my brush moistened with alcohol. Not sure why it happens but it makes forming/building the nail harder and messier than it needs to be.

i’m not great at acrylic and gel and i’m starting to pick it back up after about 4 years and polygel is wonderful to work with because i can use it to get my technique down with moulding and shaping and not worry about it drying down.

@franzabananza 3 года назад

The editing in these videos are amazing 🤩 Also this is perfect for me. A lot of press on nails don’t fit for me because I have big nails. So I’ll be using those techniques on my thumb. I’m sure once I get good I’ll do it on all my nails

@helensarkisian7491 5 лет назад

1) Does gel require pure acetone for removal? 2) Acrylic can be pinched fo a C curve. How does one get the gel to create the C curve? My nails tend to go flat.

@ynaartsasyouliveandbreathe3533 5 лет назад

1. Form well so that you already have a good curve. 2. On the first layer of the extension, which should be thin, flash cure for about 15 sec and then apply a pinching clamp to the free edge; return to lamp and cure fully. I suppose you can get pinching clamps on AliExpress or Ebay, look around :)

@ynaartsasyouliveandbreathe3533 5 лет назад

Oh, and builder gel can be either soft or hard. Soft gel, you can soak off, while hard gel needs to be filed off. Only use if you're committed to your extensions for long term.

Can we have a video where you do your other hand? I'm always wondering how you do it!

@beautywearsboots6458 5 лет назад

I believe she did do something like this with acrylic. She still uses her dominant hand as much as possible. For example, to pick up her beads or acrylic, and when she files, she mostly moves her dominant hand and just holds the file still with the other. I do my own nails, and that's what I remember that's helped me the most. Also, if you're using gel (even hybrid) flash cure right away if you like how it looks! That way if you accidentally touch the finger you don't wreck it, and the shape is locked in place until you do your full cure
