When it comes to bottles glue or resins , i put a little Vaseline around the threads to be absolutely sure. I was having a hard time with that and one of my older clients "82 yr old sweetest woman ever" comes walking into my salon and says "here you go dear , it's an old trick and it's going to save you from unnecessary aggravation" LOL Bless her because she saved me from throwing out a lot of product and getting annoyed at bottles and using pliers to open , if they opened haha So that's also a little trick , especially for the brush on glue bottles
This reminds me of high tech silk nails. I think the dip powders finally make sense to me when you explain it as a resin! Thank you! I’d love to see this done with a tip and how to make an apex! (It’s a big selling point with one of your competitors. Ahem. 😉💖)
Wishing you guy could do a video explaining the difference in strength of different services. Like hardest less flexible to softest most flexible. Is using dip with resin stringer than dip with gel?
Resin with dip powder is way stronger than gel base coat and dip powder but the gel one is more flexible. I currently wear dip powder with base coat and waiting to see which one will last more
Every time I watch another Young Nails video it makes me so anxious and excited to get started with your products! Today is the start of week 3 in Nail Tech School! As a student, am I able to set up an account and starting making purchases?
I like your method as opposed to everyone dunking their fingers into the same jar. That's the main reason I stopped using SNS (and the fact that their advertising is more dodgy than an elephant in a minefield). My question is, where's the apex? Unless you put like 10 layers on where the apex should be, and that takes forrrrrrever.
#yournotalone. I too,,, am going crazy, or already crazy, one or the other 😂 i do like a lil dip now and then,. Love the colour. Cheers for careing and shareing xx
Yes learned something today from you... do you use a clear top powder?Great explanation... would like to see your video of proper removal if you have one...
Thank you so much for actually showing how to keep the nail polish brush clean! Every one of mine ends up hardened. And the base brush gets saturated with whatever color dipping with at the time. Can I clean it the same way as the activator brush?
Newbie here with questions. I have this system and want to master it. 😃 I did it for the first time to myself yest. ( I am not YET a nail tech. ) Do you have a good video where I can learn to file/share this properly? Mine are lumpy and bumpy. 😥 Other question, is this like dip? Why not dip or how is this different? Thanks so much!! I LOVE this channel and all the products I have used of yours so far!! 💗🎉👍
slickpour is our line of dip powder. You are using the method in this video? Also, are you pouring the powder onto the nail or dipping the nail in the powder?
@@youngnailsinc Yes, I am using this method but I did try and dip one nail in to see what happened. hhaahhaahh!! Also the product I used to brush on after the first pour, I ended up pulling the powder off or moving it around. Perhaps I need to keep my brush more wet?
Can you use this on natural nails for an overlay? My natural nails grow so fast that it costs way too much to have fills every week. I'd like to put an overlay on my nails. If this product doesn't work on natural nails, can you suggest something that does?
Can you use regular base coat for the slick pour? Are you able to use a light for this with base coat and top coat? Or does it have to be the activator? What IS the activator?
Question: Is using the dip powder with resin or the ManiQ base and top coat just a matter of preference (on the natural nail)? If the client already has an acrylic or gel overlay or enhancement, do we match the dip powder preference (resin vs gel) with what they already have on their nails? Does it matter?
There is a very different wear to the nails between resin and *conversion gel. Resin leaves a very rock hard surface where pairing it with conversion gives more of a flexible yet durable wear. If a client came in with enhancements I would recommend removal and application of the dip system or filling the client with what they already have on.
Yes what she said! If someone has any other enhancement on and gets this, they could tear their nail off due to the difference in material amd hardness. This shouldnt be places on natural nails in my opinion.
Here are some great videos for you: th-cam.com/video/sqMtfNWv0Yc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=25UjbTcyrAIyuLYC th-cam.com/video/9qnT4KJeFgI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=FSi1crgRe7ZCYgs-
Brooke Payne if you use gelpolish as a topcoat it will peel off very fast. That’s why I prefer the method with gelpolish base and powder in stead of the resin with dippowder....
YoungNailsInc good to know. Appreciate it! I’ve been using it on myself with the resin and the gel method (I love both) but I have active length and a lot of other dip systems show the process in longer extensions which seemed like a bad idea!
You can put an extra coat of glue right where the apex should be prior to your 2 regular coats of glue and that will give you a little extra strength. Dip system nails usually last best at more of an active length in most cases.
At 3:39 using the activator you contaminate the rest of your bottle by not wiping off your brush from the powder/color and placing it back into the bottle. Yet later you talk about wiping the brush at a different step... shouldn't you have done it here as well?
At the 3:39 point, she is using the Activator to dry the nail. With this product you don't have to worry about "contaminating" the rest of the bottle. The reason we are more concerned about wiping the brush when using the Top Coat is that when you brush the Top Coat on, it is coming in contact with the Activator that is on the nail. If you transfer the Activator from the nail on the brush back into the bottle, it will "activate" or harden all of the product in the bottle.
They will both last long, but depending on which you are using, a gel top coat may be more durable. A hard gel top coat (Stain Resistant, Gloss, or Ultimate Finish) will be harder and will not wear if the nails come in contact with solvents like acetone.
Since this is a resin would it be possible to use a resin spray that dries resin instantly instead of waiting for it to dry. Or is that kind of what the activator is for?
You can definitely use gel polish over any of the Slick Pour powders. Just make sure to file the surface of your Slick Pour application with a 150 grit file to smooth/shape, dust off and apply a coat of Protein Bond. Then you can go right to your gel polish color, no base coat needed.
I put 2 coats and 1/2 of color and cliente complaint that keep breaking. Why this happens to me if I see most of nail there in TH-cam put two coats and no break. What can I do to the nails no break??
when the nail gets longer there is more of a chance of cracking at the stress point because the natural nail bends and dip nails are so hard it can crack right at the free edge, when the nails get longer it's required to have more product to prevent cracking
I just don't like these things. Salons around here are advertising these things as "vegan " "nonGMO" and "no harmful UV lamp". People obviously believe this nonsense. I can't do misleading marketing just to make a buck.
p.j. Bailey you are dead right. They claim the system is with added calcium and vitamins. The only thing in the whole system that has vitamins and minerals is the cuticle oil. That's how they get around getting prosecuted for false advertising. I'm yet to see advertising for the Young Nails system, so I can't include them. I am impressed with their methods, though.
I’m sorry but this is gonna have to be a pass for me. The cups this kit comes with are just not necessary plus not the most comfortable way to do it compared to just dipping your nails .

growlingcheetah Thanks for sharing this! Best idea ever! 🖤
Awesome trick!!
Thank you for sharing. duh why didn't I think of that. lol
Thank you for the tip
Great idea I will try it . Thank youb

Tracy is so good !
Easy to understand and very good demo
Thank you so much!!
You're a good educator. Thank you for the info
Wouuu an easy and effective way to propose a good service to our clients☺...(and make money out of it of course lol ). Love your tips and tricks 💖
Thank you Tracey, I needed this. I’ve had the Slick Pour for a while I’ve just not worked with it. No reason not to now.❤️❤️❤️
Awesome!!
Such a convenient service!!!
Love it 💕💕
Really enjoyed this dip system!!
💗💚💛💜💛💚💗
Love that the videos are about dip ... its great
That looks like fun! Beautiful finish!Have a happy weekend! ❤👍
Woow 🤭Tracy you nailed it, loud nd clear 👌👌
Wishing you guy could do a video explaining the difference in strength of different services. Like hardest less flexible to softest most flexible. Is using dip with resin stringer than dip with gel?
I agree! A video comparison would be awesome!! This would clear up some confusion, and we would learn a lot!!! ♡
Resin with dip powder is way stronger than gel base coat and dip powder but the gel one is more flexible. I currently wear dip powder with base coat and waiting to see which one will last more
I love how she can use one hand to do everything... i can’t apply nail polish to my right hand since im a left handed person
Great job am learning so much! Thank you guys!!!!!
much love
Every time I watch another Young Nails video it makes me so anxious and excited to get started with your products! Today is the start of week 3 in Nail Tech School! As a student, am I able to set up an account and starting making purchases?
That is awesome!! Give us a call at 1-800-777-9170 and ask for Ray he can help set up your account
I like your method as opposed to everyone dunking their fingers into the same jar.

Unless you put like 10 layers on where the apex should be, and that takes forrrrrrever.
This was awesome
Absolutely love this Channel. I wanted to know if there's a way to give it a matte finish instead of it being the traditional shine look.
Check out our Mani-Q matte Top Coat 😁
@@youngnailsinc what products did you use
#yournotalone. I too,,, am going crazy, or already crazy, one or the other 😂 i do like a lil dip now and then,. Love the colour. Cheers for careing and shareing xx
happy you enjoyed the video
Yes learned something today from you... do you use a clear top powder?Great explanation... would like to see your video of proper removal if you have one...
yes we do the clear slick pour is called under the radar
I start school this week Im excited to do this. Im coming to LA too I need to take a class with you
Awesome!!!
Thank you so much for actually showing how to keep the nail polish brush clean! Every one of mine ends up hardened. And the base brush gets saturated with whatever color dipping with at the time. Can I clean it the same way as the activator brush?
we sell brush replacements to help with the base brush hardening
Super interesting technique. ❤️
How do you recommend pricing SlickPour to clients? If it’s a overlay on natural nails would you price it the same as gel overlay?
About $10 more than gel polish
Love it!
SO YOU CAN USE RESIN POWDER WITH ACRYLIC POWDER FOR NAILS? 😳😍
So very helpful! Thank u!
You’d so welcome!
Tracy, can you do a fill with slickpour system?
You can, thin down the slickpour and then go through your normal steps
Can you use the Slick Pour powders with your monomer? 🤔
Yes you can, we recommend laying a thin layer of color then capping in clear ❤️
I would like to see a video on that. I’m assuming it would speed of the process
Love it

Could you do a video on removal of Slickpour on a natural nail please?
Great idea, will pass it along 😁😁

This works amazing as an overlay over the natural nail 😁
ok so at last can I put a gel top coat and cure instead of having to wait the 2-3 min to dry a normal top coat?
Yep
Can you use regular base coat for the slick pour? Are you able to use a light for this with base coat and top coat? Or does it have to be the activator? What IS the activator?
this was a great video... love learning... but.... I can't find any thing out about fills or how to remove this....
You can remove this buy either soaking it off in acetone or filing it off with an e-file
Question: Is using the dip powder with resin or the ManiQ base and top coat just a matter of preference (on the natural nail)?

Yes what she said! If someone has any other enhancement on and gets this, they could tear their nail off due to the difference in material amd hardness. This shouldnt be places on natural nails in my opinion.
Question.. Could I use an acrylic powder as the "dip powder" for a system like this or a similar system (like the Kiara Sky dip kit)?
All systems really work best with what they are created with. :)
couldnt u use it over a thin layer of clear gel and build that way? or use it like glitter over uncured gel?
Here are some great videos for you: th-cam.com/video/sqMtfNWv0Yc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=25UjbTcyrAIyuLYC
th-cam.com/video/9qnT4KJeFgI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=FSi1crgRe7ZCYgs-
you guys have tought me so much thank you.
awesome thanks for watching!
it was done on the top of acrylic nail, can be done on natural nails as well?
yep
When using slickpour over an enhancement, can we top with YN finish gel or gloss?
Gloss would totally work ❤️
If you want to use a natural pink powder and then put a gel polish on what steps do you do?
Go as far as the 1st coat of activator. Once shaped and filed apply protein bond then gel polish
Great video
thanks!
So do you pour the extra power back into the container?
No, you can re-use on the same client but needs to be disposed of if used on one client. That is the idea behind the pouring method is it is sanitary.
How would you recommend using gel polish as the top coat?
Brooke Payne if you use gelpolish as a topcoat it will peel off very fast. That’s why I prefer the method with gelpolish base and powder in stead of the resin with dippowder....
You can use a nude or clear slickpour powder then after you file, clean the dust off and apply your gel polish.
Could you use this product with glued on tips?
Yes you can 😊
Is it cool to use the gel process or this with extensions? Kind of like the back scratcher system?
You can use it over a tip, however we recommend no longer than active length.
YoungNailsInc good to know. Appreciate it! I’ve been using it on myself with the resin and the gel method (I love both) but I have active length and a lot of other dip systems show the process in longer extensions which seemed like a bad idea!
Can we use the spray on activator instead?
We have not tried it with a spray on activator
YoungNailsInc good! Looks like I'm gonna try it:)
hannahross911 did u try it 🙃
Leticia Villa works perfectly!
Can I use this product on a tip extension?
Stacy Orick yes, you can
can you please post a video of a fill and color change for this???
Could you skip the last activator step and apply gel top coat instead of the included top coat?
Yes you can, after you activate the first time then file. Clean off the dust and apply your gel top coat
Can I use UV light to cure the top coat?
Dip top coat doesn't require a light to cure
How do you build the apex with the dip?
You can put an extra coat of glue right where the apex should be prior to your 2 regular coats of glue and that will give you a little extra strength. Dip system nails usually last best at more of an active length in most cases.
At 3:39 using the activator you contaminate the rest of your bottle by not wiping off your brush from the powder/color and placing it back into the bottle. Yet later you talk about wiping the brush at a different step... shouldn't you have done it here as well?
At the 3:39 point, she is using the Activator to dry the nail. With this product you don't have to worry about "contaminating" the rest of the bottle.

If you transfer the Activator from the nail on the brush back into the bottle, it will "activate" or harden all of the product in the bottle.
Would this last as long as gel top coat ?
They will both last long, but depending on which you are using, a gel top coat may be more durable. A hard gel top coat (Stain Resistant, Gloss, or Ultimate Finish) will be harder and will not wear if the nails come in contact with solvents like acetone.
I've had this done three times buy three different people can you tell me why they lift at the bottom of my nail? Please help
with out knowing the exact process the nail techs used it is hard to determine why the product lifted
Thanks anyway
tk so much😍👍
Since this is a resin would it be possible to use a resin spray that dries resin instantly instead of waiting for it to dry. Or is that kind of what the activator is for?
The activator will do the same thing 😊
Why would my gel top coat peel with a slick pour service?
You have to rough up the surface of the slickpour before applying a gel top coat
is good to help short nail grow? but not good for long nail? since has no apex?
correct. it is great for natural nails making them a little more durable. with any longer extension there needs to be more product in the stress area
Can you top coat this with a gel polish?
You can definitely use gel polish over any of the Slick Pour powders. Just make sure to file the surface of your Slick Pour application with a 150 grit file to smooth/shape, dust off and apply a coat of Protein Bond. Then you can go right to your gel polish color, no base coat needed.
What’s the color on her pinky finger is so beautiful I need it ?!
The base on the left pinky is cover pink acrylic powder.
The purple looks like Triptastic.

@@youngnailsinc thank you!
I put 2 coats and 1/2 of color and cliente complaint that keep breaking. Why this happens to me if I see most of nail there in TH-cam put two coats and no break. What can I do to the nails no break??
You can use additional coats for longer nails
Can protein bond be used prior to applying slick pour?
No when using slickpour with resin like in this video.
How is this not a health hazard? Resin is toxic and I am not aware of any truly non-toxic resin. Please kindly explain. ALSO:How is it removed?
How much do one should charge for this service?
Somewhere between a gel polish service and your overlay price is a good place to start.
Can we use a gel top coat instead of the resin top coat?
You can, after lightly filing the nail you can apply a gel top coat
Is the activator the same as acrylic liquid ??
nope
YoungNailsInc oh okay thank you
Me recomendarían algún canal en español los veo y me encantan
JUANCHO DICO Melissa Rocha
What is the name of the hot pink color please?
Looks like Tart and tangy
Can protein bond be used under the dip service?
Not necessary, dips have their own prep step
Thank you.. I've been using it on my dip sets. Some sets are great, some run into problems. I will stickl to regular prep now 😁
I have a client who said it burns? Why would it do that?
Burning sensations usually occur from extremely thin nails or mixing product
How do you remove this product?
Stacy Orick you can soak it in acetone or remove it with an e-file
What prices are people charging for dip?
Usually around the same as gel polish, $45 is about average
What nails wipes are those please?
Young nails
Lauren Nasca , YN nail wipes are amazing!!
Why does dip nail sometimes crack?
when the nail gets longer there is more of a chance of cracking at the stress point because the natural nail bends and dip nails are so hard it can crack right at the free edge, when the nails get longer it's required to have more product to prevent cracking
brilliant
Um what about if you dont uave the started kit? Lol
We can’t speak on other brands of products as we don’t test them. Our videos are on how to use our products specifically.
What colour is this?
Looks like Tart and tangy
Thank you. Have just ordered the starter kit and can’t wait to use it x
Son sensación 🌹💕💋
How do you remove it?
Soak off
I just don't like these things. Salons around here are advertising these things as "vegan " "nonGMO" and "no harmful UV lamp". People obviously believe this nonsense. I can't do misleading marketing just to make a buck.
p.j. Bailey This system is amazing and it has vitamin d and calcium added which helps natural nails. You don't have to advertise like other salons.
Brooke Payne vitamins and calcium applied topically to Nails do absolutely nothing. More misleading marketing.
It’s such false advertising, places around me have the nerve to add “organic” and “natural” 🙄😡
p.j. Bailey you are dead right. They claim the system is with added calcium and vitamins. The only thing in the whole system that has vitamins and minerals is the cuticle oil. That's how they get around getting prosecuted for false advertising. I'm yet to see advertising for the Young Nails system, so I can't include them. I am impressed with their methods, though.
