I just can't ever express how amazing you are! such a soothing voice and such a nice and hilarious personality!! you crack me up while keeping me extremely informed! love you, you deserve all the subscribers!
You literally deserve an award for being the best nail tech .. Every nail tech around me' work Doesn't look half as good as yours. You've definitely set a high standard!
Been watching Suzie for like 6 or 7 years now and have learned so much about acrylic (saved my nails on one hand with those skills, a story for another day) but this is my favorite suzie video. The way she teaches is just so excellent, and I really appreciate someone that finds a different way to do something and accepts that it can work well too. That’s the sign of a true educator and professional
Wow watching all her videos makes me realize how terrible your "everyday" nail salons do nails. Most of them are all about how fast you can do someone's nails without putting making them natural and long-lasting into thought
That's the main reason why I don't get manicures any more. The techs I've been to have always been rough on my hands and they chatter with each other and make me feel quite uncomfortable.
Agreed, even the quality of the professional salons don't come anywhere near Suzie's standard and they charge a fortune. Just wish I could find a descent nail tech :-(
Same here! The nail tech I used to see (who actually did nails right and took her time) moved to Florida, and when I tried 3 different nail techs in other salons they just did a terrible job and were so expensive =( I do my own nails now but I'm not a professional, and it's disappointing that I have to do them myself when I would be willing to pay someone to do a better job but there's no one I found who I trust to do them right T__T
I never wear acrylic nails at all, I barely like them, but I enjoy your videos so much because of your charisma, you are so eloquent and proper to speak that makes me wanna learn to speak like that... Great job lady!
Love the way you explain everything. You're a great teacher and you make it so simple, thanks for your videos. Also, you're a wonderful person and very professionnal 😊
Every nail tech in every salon should watch your videos to see how it’s done. It should be mandatory training. I cannot tell the difference between your nails and natural nails. French is also my favorite design of all time; I love the square but whichever you’re doing, it looks like a natural nail. The cuticle, the tips, everything, with this exception; perfection.
Hi Suzy I watch your videos all the time. I just wanted to leave a quick message to say thank you! I've always been interested in doing acrylic nails. I am a qualified beauty therapist but never done the acrylic nails. Since watching your videos you've given me the encouragement and the passion to do so. Your a very talented nail technician. And I've learnt a lot from watching hour videos. Much love from England 😘
I'm just astounded at how healthy your natural nails look! I've never in my life been able to take off a set of acrylic nails and have my natural nail not look completely destroyed!
+Marine Chandler Must say that this is my absolut favorit. And I have seen manny. Every week I long for a new vid to come. But please inform us of al the others. Al inspiration is welcomed. But negative coms we can do with out!
+Marine Chandler Marine Chandler - you're entitled to your opinion and I have let you make them and not delete them - BUT now you are getting out of line by insulting my viewers - try a positive comment for a change, or soon you will not be making anymore on this channel.
I love how you explain things, and especially how surprised you are with certain techniques :) Just goes to show that teachers still learn just as much as their students!
Susie, big THANK YOU for this video! finally I can do this! acrylic is my love, I'm do it always alone, at home but have any education-only TH-cam channels. Thank God I've found Your Channel and I'm happy. You say it so nice, I understand every step. Thank You!
I've been watching this channel for about three hours straight while I'm bed ridden with womanly pains, and I've really learned a lot of interesting techniques and I want to start doing my own acrylics now with advice from you. 😁
I have never been a particular fan of french nails, but the more I see it tho the more I like them. Very clean and a classic. And yes after watching many do both ways, especially the reverse one which you did now, and I can see why it it easier. Especially for students. Also because you allready put down the foundation, the pink, and the rest is add on and smoothing. I almost missed this video, but I always love going back and watch all your videos to learn so I saw this one. Happily excited;)
I just love your videos!! You seem like a very down to earth woman who would treat clients with care... if only I could get an appointment with you! :D
I subscribed, not simply because of your obvious talent, but your charm and personality. Not that you would need my approval by any means, but you seem like a very genuine person. The world needs more people of your nature.
When I go to the salon or use to go, they would always cut my skin. One time after I left I had 6 out of 10 fingers cut. They also would take a tip and run it under the acrylic to get it off. It was so painful and it tore up my nails. I've sense started doing my own nails. Suzie if I had you in my area I'd go to you. Lol.
That is horrifying! I'm sorry you had that experience. I'm currently a nail tech student, and we've been learning a lot about how salon services should NEVER hurt and what not to do. I've had several people come to me for simple services like pedicures who were butchered in the past, and are stunned when I show them how simple and easy it is to perform their service without hurting them at all!
Some of the best french tips I've seen as well as a spectacular job on acrylics! Very impressed that you advocate for a thinner nail (it doesn't make them better or stronger). I had a hard time finding anyone who would make mine thinner than they wanted to....but I couldn't pick up anything! That was highly annoying and thusly I only did acrylics a handful of times just to see what it was like. You would make BANK here! I'm so glad I found your channel yesterday, this is so educational already!
thank you for sharing! I love French nails!! it's my favorite! I want to do my own nails and I hope to get a starter kit to try! so this helps lots thank you for all your videos!!
+WereWolf689 A reverse French is just a different method of doing a French design, looks the same as a transitional French. In the reverse French, you make the smile line with the pink first, then add the white. Or whatever colour you're using.
Your videos are fabulous. I've been having my nails done since 1971(porcelain) at that time. I wish I could find a nail tech as great as you are. In fact since I can't I'll probably go back to doing my own with the help of your videos. YOU ARE AWESOME
love your excitement when you try something new! please do a video on how to remove glitter nail polish, it might seem simple to some but everytime i wear it, whether alone or ontop of another polish, the glitter is a pain to get off and takes ages to just get rid of it from even one finger! (the polishes i use will just get rid of the colour in the glitter, leaving it silver or white, then when i think i am done with getting that part off, theres still some i end up picking off with nails as its easier but i know not better)
Nail Career Education thank you hehe and thanks again to Leslie! lol yea i end up picking off the bits that don't come off but will try your and leslie's tips!
+DominosAndHearts another tip if u can't get those products which is what I do is apply polish remover on a pad (make sure u flood the pad with remover & use non acetone if u have enhancements on. Place the pad on ur nail & then wrap ur finger with a lil silver foil & make sure it's wrap up tight. We call it Alfoil here in Australia so I'm not sure what u call it. Anyways after a 3-4 mintues u can take the foil off & just give u nails a lil wipe with the pad & the glitter comes straight off. I know this method 'may' sound like a lot of effort but I assure you that it's MUCH quicker than the method u do (that we've all done at one stage in our life, lol). This method takes approx 7 minutes for all 10 nails & that includes the time ur nails are in foil for. I hope this helps aswell :)
I found your page randomly and I LOVE it! i will study to be a nail technician as well in Jan 11 I will start.I can't wait! I am always playing with my nails,lol! so i figured would follow the ART of it! I am SO GLAD I found youuuu!
love this. i know many are asking you to do different things. i don't know if you do gel nails but i would love to see you do them. i'm not sure which ones are stronger. gels or acrylics . thanks so much for teaching us. love your vids :))
Hey Suzie, a great way to also do the reverse French is to pit down a thin layer or clear before building pink, then you can easily take of nail form to perfect and not having to worry about reforming. I love your videos, super educational x
She has a camera man, and a clear vision of how she wants her videos to look. She's got lighting mastered and a uniform video format. Her audio is great too. You can do it as a one man show. But you'll have to put forth effort and foresight. You can find lots of free online tutorials, I recommend lynda.com for courses photography, editing, lighting, etc. I just subscribed to your channel. Your videos look good. I'd recommend lighting and audio enhancements. Anyhow, hope I'm not over stepping my bounds and your question wasn't rhetorical - lol :-) Good luck!
I have learned more from your videos than I did in nail tech school...the day I started school I could already do nails better than the instructor. We were never taught to use an electric file your videos have helped so much...Thank you!
+Tammy Lamons pardon my language then... Sorry about that. And I don't mean to tattle but Destonie commented saying "BEAUTIFUL !!" and (I'm assuming) your daughter replied with "she is not"
Hi Suzie I am trying to grow my nails after years of nail bitting but every time they grow a little they break because there are soft and keep catching on things can you give me some advice
As she's putting down the product she says she's leaving a gap or "gully" for the white smile line of the french tip. It disappears when she files because she files away the natural nail to meet the acrylic.
Stunning!! now I feel like I could do this, before I was like there's no way I can do a french! Thank you so much for showing the nail prep before also! I adore your videos!! glad you made through the storm!
Could u do a product video?. I really want to change what I use. Like the drills and the drills bits. And ur acrylic products and gel products. Please! Your video are so great and easy to understand.
i am thinking about going to school for nail tech so i have been watching your videos and i love learning how to do forms and i have been practicing! today i did my first successful form i did the reverse French! Thank You for your videos!
+Jada Mitchell - Rodriguez why are you asking her? why dont you ask better youtubes/nail techs. Like Crystal Nails, Gabbo kovak, Organic Nails. They're not as sloppy as this one.
Marine Chandler What's the point of a nasty comment like that?? It's rude and immature! If you don't like it then fine, but there is no reason to be snotty. I love that she tried something that no one else would do and it worked! YAY! Some people including myself like to experiment and see if something works and if it doesn't then it doesn't, that is exactly how new techniques are figured out all the time. She was just trying something, it might not be a technique that you would want to try and that's fine. If you don't like the way she does things then don't watch. That way you can stick to those other channels you mentioned and be happy with the content! Good Luck and God Bless:)
next time can you show the result in the video a lil better then the photos... i would love to see what it looks like in a video you kept moving your hands too much so i could hardly see the nail its fucking anoyint
You absolutely can! Depending on the color, and the opacity, you can even paint over a design, or nails that have colored acrylic (for instance, if you had an acrylic nail set that used blue acrylic, you could still easily paint over that). The best nail polishes to use are the creamy, smooth nail polishes because they will give you the best result and coverage. :-)
Music Queen216 yeah you can. When I get acrylics I always get clear ones with a gel clear topcoat and then I will be able to do my own designs and everything and change them whenever. I don't like having the same nails over like 5 days. Lol. Just make sure you use non acetone nail polish remover. If you use one with acetone it will ruin the acrylic.
I've just passed my nail technician course. I find it extremely hard to do the smile line white first. when my teacher showed me this technique I loved it. any mistakes are simply filed away ☺ your videos are amazing your such an inspiration keep up your awesome work
I absolutely love your videos! I have had some bad experiences with nail salons. I prefer to do them myself. I would love a video on what is best to do to take care of the natural nail. Will all the huffing and filing it can be a lot for the natural nail. I would love to know your thoughts on taking care of the natural nail. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this, Suzie! I'm new to doing my own acrylics and the French just looked so intimidating. It's probably my 4th time doing my own acrylic set now and I finally decided to take on the challenge. Your tips made it so much less intimidating :) and POSSIBLE ❤️ love your videos and your nails!
im not a nail enthusiasts.. but i enjoy watching this kind of videos.. And the way you make your videos.. it feels so comfortable and so at home i just enjoy watching it ! love how informative u are keep it up 💖 xx
Last month for my friends wedding I got fake nails for the first time ever. I just got white tips. I've always had perfect long natural nails. They cut my nails, and then shaved about 1mm of natural nail with the carbite (?) bit, then after applying the acrylic in about 30 seconds for both hands they took the drill and basically cut my cuticles. I was horrified, the other girls had no issue that they could see (they did 10 girls in an hour with 4 "techs") I took a photo to send to my sister who is training in a proper salon and she and the owner was shocked. The photo showed my cuticles bleeding and even now my nail is stained with blood. I also got an infection in every finger. Even now as I'm trying to make my nails healthy again as the new nail grows you can see & feel the difference between the two. Is it worth you doing a video to earn against these "salons"? In Australia these places are popping up everywhere with Asian workers who all do the same thing. It's dangerous!
Ah wow! That's a terrible experience- I'm so sorry that happened- it's like any industry - there's good and then there's bad. It is a buyer beware situation. You gotta do your research to learn whose good and who isn't - it's really ashame cause the Asians get picked on about this. Within the industry with competitions etc the Asians are amazing! Their work is admired! I would ask around in your community see what salon people are talking about then have one nail done then you can see there style😀
I'm a nail technician in training right, I've got a month till I take my state board test and become licensed, but, I watched this video and tried in on a client at my school and it turned out beautifully amazing!!! thank you so much!! your videos have helped me out so much!!!! thank you so very much!!! your amazing and keep up the beautiful work!
I don't see any C cure on the end of the tip . If you pinch the nail tip while the acrylic is warm , it should look better , slimmer . It's nice to see a square nail with a nice C cure in the tip . Piling on the acrylic creates more work with filing .
Im agree with you is missing a curve C She musted use a pinching tool, and cuted The form to fix better on freeage and the form put Little bit up that i learn't at Magnetic course made with a ucraine teacher and i Saw The Big diference. The nails Came out perfect
+. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed i unsubscribed to you. She clearly wanted the nails like that,quite rude to say she's missing something as if she isn't a professional.
Really love the way you do all types of acrylic application and shaping and preps. I have never done nails before but your amazing at it and make me want to maybe start a career in nails
The "Reverse French" is beautiful. I live here in Vancouver, WA. I don't know of anyone (nail salon) that can do this. I think that if I ever had a chance to get the Reverse French, that I would probably like the French side to match the shape of the pink nail bed. If I lived closer, I would just have to make an appointment with your salon. From all the videos that I have watched, Suzie you're the best.
Selena Jetli did you REALLY just write that!?!? Get the HELL OUT OF HERE with that kinda talk! Saying things like that makes YOU ugly!!!! People like YOU are why I hardly ever read comments. Why in Gods name would you even be possessed to write something so ignorant and cruel? Go away! NO ONE here or anywhere wants someone TROLLING around writing stupid @$$ comments putting others down. That LEGIT pissed me off. You need to go FIND A HOBBY and some self esteem because that was not only stupid and unnecessary but WRONG. Suzie is not only beautiful inside and out BUT an awesome person and nail tech! She's incredibly helpful to those of us with a BRAIN who want to learn from her, and some people even watch JUST to see and hear her and they don't even do nails! You need a life and some serious self reflection. Go troll elsewhere. Or even better don't. Just go away from the Internet period. Take your negative, NASTY, irrelevant opinions away from the world, because we don't need people like you floating around writing shi**y things to people you don't even know! That comment was for sure the more IGNORANT, rude, HORRIBLE things I've ever seen someone write to a STRANGER or even someone they know, for NO reason other than to be a total jerk with no consideration of people's feelings AND with NO purpose other than to be an @$$ hole!!!! I don't care if you're a kid or an adult. If you're a kid, your parents are failing. Miserably. If you're an adult, even MORE shame on you. You KNOW better. If you don't have something nice (and intelligent!!!!) to say, keep your trap SHUT!!!You need to seriously get out of here and anywhere else you want to spew your gross words. Maybe you weren't hugged or loved enough in your life? Who knows, and tbh I don't even care. I just think you should get a life, preferably one that doesn't leave ridiculous comments on people's TH-cam channels for noooooo purpose other than to wave your idiocy around. RIDICULOUS!!!! #Bye #YoureNOTWanted #IrrelevantCommentANDPerson #InsecurePeopleSayStupidThings #MaybeYouNeedSomeLoveInYourLife #DefiniteSelfEsteemIssues #SuziesSquad #GooooooAwayyyyyy
Hi Suzi, I love all your videos. You have such a great style - not only with nails but also the way you do your videos. Very professional and such a pleasure to watch, and informative too. Love your new salon, and hope it's all going great for you! Looking forward to your next video - keep them coming!
yet another wonderful video Suzie. Thakyou so much. I must admit I am a lurker but I do watch all ur videos.....infact I think it's safe to say that you are my probably favourite Nail TH-camr. I've been a Nail Tech since 1986 (with quite a few stints of absense in between) & we both know that if u blink in this industry you'll miss something so each time I come back from a 3 or 5 year absence feels like I've been away for Eons, lol....U really do miss so much. Anyways, rant over. Thankyou again. xo
having severe anxiety causes me to (I know this sounds gross) pull the skin off of my finger tips and around my cuticle area and I found your wonderful channel a while ago and while talking about nails with my therapist she recommended acrylics to serve as a "keep your hands pretty" type of motivation and it reminded me so much of Grant 💖💖
I love your videos so much! Very relaxing to watch. You have a real gift for teaching and sharing informations. Please keep posting videos!! Yours are always so well done.
Hi Suzie, from the Uk, love your videos! I'm very new in my nail education journey and have been practising on my own nails for only a couple of months. I wanted to show you a picture of my first attempt at the reverse french technique...hopefully I can figure out how 🤞xx
This reverse French tip was amazing to watch. I like it, curious as to whether it easier or faster the old way or new one. I know, getting ready for the big reveal. 🤗
Watching your tutorials have helped me so much in applying my acrylics to where they last and aren't lifting. I really feel like I'm taking classes online! LOL
I just got my nails done yesterday by my sister inlaw, my first set of acrylics! Now once the current set grows off, I am sooo going to have her do this! I may even try to do it myself!
I've always favoured Natural Nails over Acrylic Application but the passion that you have really got me into your videos. I still don't tend towards Acrylic but my opinion about it changed radically after watching your videos. I just subscribed because your calm and sweet voice and your simple explanations make your tutorials really adorable. All I wanted to say is that, you got a new fan 💘
Thank you for sharing your expertise in nail care. You are such a wonderful lady. I got my first manicare two weeks ago and I got hair stuck in-between the artificial nail every time I shampooed because the nail tech did not file off the cuticle area. It's so painful. Also, it looks funny with a bump. I'm gonna try your tip on filing it off. Thanks!
thats amazing how you can do nails through out a storm and that to me means that u really care about your subscribers . love your work you have really inspired and what i wanna do with my life. love your work😉😆😇.
I love your channel! Omg every time I hear that drill I feel like I am at the dentist hahaha but oh well you got to do what you got to do for nails to look awesome :)
Sooo beautiful!!! You're such a huge inspiration in my life, I can't wait to start my second channel BrianaLeeNails. Thanks so much for being a beautiful person inside & out :)

Honestly I never get my nails done but I watch these cause they're really relaxing/satisfying
I love that I have been watching you since Covid and this “retro” video popped up in my feed. It is so cool to see how far Suzie has come in 6 years!

+Nail Career Education what's a reverse french?
+WereWolf689 A reverse French is just a different method of doing a French design, looks the same as a transitional French. In the reverse French, you make the smile line with the pink first, then add the white. Or whatever colour you're using.
Clorox Bleach I love you but just watch the video & she explains all about what a reverse French is..
Your videos are fabulous. I've been having my nails done since 1971(porcelain) at that time. I wish I could find a nail tech as great as you are. In fact since I can't I'll probably go back to doing my own with the help of your videos.
YOU ARE AWESOME
love your excitement when you try something new! please do a video on how to remove glitter nail polish, it might seem simple to some but everytime i wear it, whether alone or ontop of another polish, the glitter is a pain to get off and takes ages to just get rid of it from even one finger! (the polishes i use will just get rid of the colour in the glitter, leaving it silver or white, then when i think i am done with getting that part off, theres still some i end up picking off with nails as its easier but i know not better)
lesliie44000 thank you so much!
Yes Leslie gave you a good tip- there are also base coats that are designed specifically for easier removal of glitter- also I file it off 😀
Nail Career Education thank you hehe and thanks again to Leslie! lol yea i end up picking off the bits that don't come off but will try your and leslie's tips!

+DominosAndHearts another tip if u can't get those products which is what I do is apply polish remover on a pad (make sure u flood the pad with remover & use non acetone if u have enhancements on. Place the pad on ur nail & then wrap ur finger with a lil silver foil & make sure it's wrap up tight. We call it Alfoil here in Australia so I'm not sure what u call it. Anyways after a 3-4 mintues u can take the foil off & just give u nails a lil wipe with the pad & the glitter comes straight off. I know this method 'may' sound like a lot of effort but I assure you that it's MUCH quicker than the method u do (that we've all done at one stage in our life, lol). This method takes approx 7 minutes for all 10 nails & that includes the time ur nails are in foil for. I hope this helps aswell :)
I found your page randomly and I LOVE it! i will study to be a nail technician as well in Jan 11 I will start.I can't wait! I am always playing with my nails,lol! so i figured would follow the ART of it! I am SO GLAD I found youuuu!
love this. i know many are asking you to do different things. i don't know if you do gel nails but i would love to see you do them. i'm not sure which ones are stronger. gels or acrylics . thanks so much for teaching us. love your vids :))
Yes I will do a gel set- and acrylic is stronger - they are chemically the same but acrylic better 😀
+Nail Career Education thank you :))
Theses are making a comeback. I've had multiple young clients ask me to do this style. 😊
Can you do my nails...please
Hey Suzie, a great way to also do the reverse French is to pit down a thin layer or clear before building pink, then you can easily take of nail form to perfect and not having to worry about reforming. I love your videos, super educational x
How in the world do you get so many great angles on your videos? I need an assistant lol
She has a camera man, and a clear vision of how she wants her videos to look. She's got lighting mastered and a uniform video format. Her audio is great too. You can do it as a one man show. But you'll have to put forth effort and foresight. You can find lots of free online tutorials, I recommend lynda.com for courses photography, editing, lighting, etc. I just subscribed to your channel. Your videos look good. I'd recommend lighting and audio enhancements. Anyhow, hope I'm not over stepping my bounds and your question wasn't rhetorical - lol :-) Good luck!
Rai Smith your advise is sound and welcome. I've been working on those things. It's getting better :) thanks
I have learned more from your videos than I did in nail tech school...the day I started school I could already do nails better than the instructor. We were never taught to use an electric file your videos have helped so much...Thank you!
BEAUTIFUL !!
+Tammy Lamons Youre mum isnt
+Tammy Lamons dude wtf how rude
+d4Nc3rCr4zy My 9 year old viewed this video but I don't see any comments made by her so why did you say "wtf, how rude" How was she rude?
+Tammy Lamons pardon my language then... Sorry about that. And I don't mean to tattle but Destonie commented saying "BEAUTIFUL !!" and (I'm assuming) your daughter replied with "she is not"
+Tammy Lamons your daughter just called a lady not beautiful.
I did this with polygel last night and it's so pretty, my first French!. Thanks for all you do!
That slight gap on the side was really bothering me, but she must've noticed and filled it because it disappeared when she started filing!
She did it on purpose if you weren't listening
yes it was bothering me too lol
Hi Suzie I am trying to grow my nails after years of nail bitting but every time they grow a little they break because there are soft and keep catching on things can you give me some advice
As she's putting down the product she says she's leaving a gap or "gully" for the white smile line of the french tip. It disappears when she files because she files away the natural nail to meet the acrylic.
No they mean the little hole in the white on the side like at 11:16 ish
Stunning!! now I feel like I could do this, before I was like there's no way I can do a french! Thank you so much for showing the nail prep before also! I adore your videos!! glad you made through the storm!
+Kayla Foushee That's fabulous - let know how you like it :))
Could u do a product video?. I really want to change what I use. Like the drills and the drills bits. And ur acrylic products and gel products. Please! Your video are so great and easy to understand.
during some videos she does go into a summary of what she uses.
I do sometimes but I'm not consistent- I will try n get better at that 😀oh and I did make a video ADVICE on drills n bits 😀
i am thinking about going to school for nail tech so i have been watching your videos and i love learning how to do forms and i have been practicing! today i did my first successful form i did the reverse French! Thank You for your videos!
Can you please please please do a galaxy nail
I second that!
Yaassss!!!
Yes!
+Jada Mitchell - Rodriguez why are you asking her? why dont you ask better youtubes/nail techs. Like Crystal Nails, Gabbo kovak, Organic Nails. They're not as sloppy as this one.
Marine Chandler What's the point of a nasty comment like that?? It's rude and immature! If you don't like it then fine, but there is no reason to be snotty. I love that she tried something that no one else would do and it worked! YAY! Some people including myself like to experiment and see if something works and if it doesn't then it doesn't, that is exactly how new techniques are figured out all the time. She was just trying something, it might not be a technique that you would want to try and that's fine. If you don't like the way she does things then don't watch. That way you can stick to those other channels you mentioned and be happy with the content! Good Luck and God Bless:)
Wow.......I miss those acrylic nails. So pretty.
Ohhh also one more thing, how many cameras do you use and what type ? Your set up is very professional, I love it :)
+BrianaLeeBeauty I'll have to get the correct info about the cameras etc :)))
Okie dokie, I'll be waiting for your response :) Have a great day
Ok so we use four cameras- they are 2 Canon 7D, Canon EOS-M, and one is a phone😀
Thanks so much :)
next time can you show the result in the video a lil better then the photos... i would love to see what it looks like in a video you kept moving your hands too much so i could hardly see the nail its fucking anoyint
Every video I always learn something new! My technique is definitely improving thanks to you. Love, love love!
That's great to hear Mandy😀
That's awesome Mandy😀
When she smushed the white on there, I freaked out.
Lol- I was just hoping it would be a crisp white line when I filled it! 😀
Just want to say what a wonderful work you do. I love how you explain step by step.... you do a awesome work. Congratulations..
Can u please show. Us if we can paint acrylics wit regular fingernail polish
U can if they're the clear kind
You absolutely can! Depending on the color, and the opacity, you can even paint over a design, or nails that have colored acrylic (for instance, if you had an acrylic nail set that used blue acrylic, you could still easily paint over that). The best nail polishes to use are the creamy, smooth nail polishes because they will give you the best result and coverage. :-)
Music Queen216 yeah you can. When I get acrylics I always get clear ones with a gel clear topcoat and then I will be able to do my own designs and everything and change them whenever. I don't like having the same nails over like 5 days. Lol. Just make sure you use non acetone nail polish remover. If you use one with acetone it will ruin the acrylic.
I love perfectionists, you shaped the nail so beautifully to the last detail
+Cristal Pearl Thank you:)
can you please do a video on drag marbling?
I've just passed my nail technician course. I find it extremely hard to do the smile line white first. when my teacher showed me this technique I loved it. any mistakes are simply filed away ☺ your videos are amazing your such an inspiration keep up your awesome work
Ya this works great
Can you do a video about how to care for your nails and file them in certain shapes?
+Alexis Friedman Yes I would love this!
I suspect your meaning care for natural nails? 😀
Yes! At least that's what I meant 😁 Nail Career Education
+Nail Career Education yeah
+Nail Career Education Could you add in how to treat them if they lift from the nail bed
Dear suzie I love you and your job your nail art is my zen practice you are full of sense of relaxation
can you please do a black french tip
YES!!!!!! I will be doing this - I am heading to Vegas for a Huge show and I am on the HUNT for a superior velvety smooth black acrylic :))))
OMG thank you so much have fun at vegas
+Nail Career Education what school is this
I absolutely love your videos! I have had some bad experiences with nail salons. I prefer to do them myself. I would love a video on what is best to do to take care of the natural nail. Will all the huffing and filing it can be a lot for the natural nail. I would love to know your thoughts on taking care of the natural nail. Thank you!
Can you do the reverse french with black please
Ooooh Yes! Wouldn't that be awesome - I'll plan this video 😀
+Nail Career Education thanks
Thank you so much for sharing this, Suzie! I'm new to doing my own acrylics and the French just looked so intimidating. It's probably my 4th time doing my own acrylic set now and I finally decided to take on the challenge. Your tips made it so much less intimidating :) and POSSIBLE ❤️ love your videos and your nails!
I was just thinking you should just put the white over the whole thing and file. And then you did just that 😂😂😂.
Lol- great minds ...
im not a nail enthusiasts.. but i enjoy watching this kind of videos.. And the way you make your videos.. it feels so comfortable and so at home i just enjoy watching it ! love how informative u are keep it up 💖 xx
+Amirah Khaleeda AW - that's very nice of you to take the time to say :))))
Last month for my friends wedding I got fake nails for the first time ever. I just got white tips. I've always had perfect long natural nails. They cut my nails, and then shaved about 1mm of natural nail with the carbite (?) bit, then after applying the acrylic in about 30 seconds for both hands they took the drill and basically cut my cuticles. I was horrified, the other girls had no issue that they could see (they did 10 girls in an hour with 4 "techs") I took a photo to send to my sister who is training in a proper salon and she and the owner was shocked. The photo showed my cuticles bleeding and even now my nail is stained with blood. I also got an infection in every finger. Even now as I'm trying to make my nails healthy again as the new nail grows you can see & feel the difference between the two. Is it worth you doing a video to earn against these "salons"? In Australia these places are popping up everywhere with Asian workers who all do the same thing. It's dangerous!
Ah wow! That's a terrible experience- I'm so sorry that happened- it's like any industry - there's good and then there's bad. It is a buyer beware situation. You gotta do your research to learn whose good and who isn't - it's really ashame cause the Asians get picked on about this. Within the industry with competitions etc the Asians are amazing! Their work is admired! I would ask around in your community see what salon people are talking about then have one nail done then you can see there style😀
I'm a nail technician in training right, I've got a month till I take my state board test and become licensed, but, I watched this video and tried in on a client at my school and it turned out beautifully amazing!!! thank you so much!! your videos have helped me out so much!!!! thank you so very much!!! your amazing and keep up the beautiful work!
I wish you could do my nails
😩
+Molly Morbid :))
Hi :) I'm also an educator - in SA - I agree with you, it is easier for students to grasp the reverse french... beautifully done!!!
Ya- it's so cool 😀💜
I don't see any C cure on the end of the tip . If you pinch the nail tip while the acrylic is warm , it should look better , slimmer . It's nice to see a square nail with a nice C cure in the tip . Piling on the acrylic creates more work with filing .
Im agree with you is missing a curve C She musted use a pinching tool, and cuted The form to fix better on freeage and the form put Little bit up that i learn't at Magnetic course made with a ucraine teacher and i Saw The Big diference. The nails Came out perfect
sorry for. error i Mean free edge
Why don't you 2 get your own channels and make tutorials?
I have a channel .....go check it out .
+. Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed i unsubscribed to you. She clearly wanted the nails like that,quite rude to say she's missing something as if she isn't a professional.
Really love the way you do all types of acrylic application and shaping and preps. I have never done nails before but your amazing at it and make me want to maybe start a career in nails
Aw Taryn that's really cool 😀
кошмар, бедные ваши ногти они ужасно перепилены.
The "Reverse French" is beautiful. I live here in Vancouver, WA. I don't know of anyone (nail salon) that can do this. I think that if I ever had a chance to get the Reverse French, that I would probably like the French side to match the shape of the pink nail bed. If I lived closer, I would just have to make an appointment with your salon. From all the videos that I have watched, Suzie you're the best.
aw thank you Victoria - it's alot of fun :)
Nail Career Education your so ugly
Selena Jetli did you REALLY just write that!?!? Get the HELL OUT OF HERE with that kinda talk! Saying things like that makes YOU ugly!!!! People like YOU are why I hardly ever read comments. Why in Gods name would you even be possessed to write something so ignorant and cruel? Go away! NO ONE here or anywhere wants someone TROLLING around writing stupid @$$ comments putting others down. That LEGIT pissed me off. You need to go FIND A HOBBY and some self esteem because that was not only stupid and unnecessary but WRONG. Suzie is not only beautiful inside and out BUT an awesome person and nail tech! She's incredibly helpful to those of us with a BRAIN who want to learn from her, and some people even watch JUST to see and hear her and they don't even do nails! You need a life and some serious self reflection. Go troll elsewhere. Or even better don't. Just go away from the Internet period. Take your negative, NASTY, irrelevant opinions away from the world, because we don't need people like you floating around writing shi**y things to people you don't even know! That comment was for sure the more IGNORANT, rude, HORRIBLE things I've ever seen someone write to a STRANGER or even someone they know, for NO reason other than to be a total jerk with no consideration of people's feelings AND with NO purpose other than to be an @$$ hole!!!! I don't care if you're a kid or an adult. If you're a kid, your parents are failing. Miserably. If you're an adult, even MORE shame on you. You KNOW better. If you don't have something nice (and intelligent!!!!) to say, keep your trap SHUT!!!You need to seriously get out of here and anywhere else you want to spew your gross words. Maybe you weren't hugged or loved enough in your life? Who knows, and tbh I don't even care. I just think you should get a life, preferably one that doesn't leave ridiculous comments on people's TH-cam channels for noooooo purpose other than to wave your idiocy around. RIDICULOUS!!!! #Bye #YoureNOTWanted #IrrelevantCommentANDPerson #InsecurePeopleSayStupidThings #MaybeYouNeedSomeLoveInYourLife #DefiniteSelfEsteemIssues #SuziesSquad #GooooooAwayyyyyy
I've always wanted to get French nails but, happy news my mom is letting me get French nails, acrylic to!!! And I'm so excited!!!
Hi Suzi, I love all your videos. You have such a great style - not only with nails but also the way you do your videos. Very professional and such a pleasure to watch, and informative too. Love your new salon, and hope it's all going great for you! Looking forward to your next video - keep them coming!
+Island girl Thank you so much - :)))))))
You are the best Suzie! I wish we could see more of your life! I finally found your acrylic liquid dispenser!!
yet another wonderful video Suzie. Thakyou so much. I must admit I am a lurker but I do watch all ur videos.....infact I think it's safe to say that you are my probably favourite Nail TH-camr. I've been a Nail Tech since 1986 (with quite a few stints of absense in between) & we both know that if u blink in this industry you'll miss something so each time I come back from a 3 or 5 year absence feels like I've been away for Eons, lol....U really do miss so much. Anyways, rant over. Thankyou again. xo
love watching your tutorials...dying to have a go soon,,,, thanks for your tips ...so clear and well demonstrrated...thanks Suzie
Your welcome Jackie 😀
having severe anxiety causes me to (I know this sounds gross) pull the skin off of my finger tips and around my cuticle area and I found your wonderful channel a while ago and while talking about nails with my therapist she recommended acrylics to serve as a "keep your hands pretty" type of motivation and it reminded me so much of Grant 💖💖
You are the best nail artist I've ever seen😍😍
I love your videos so much! Very relaxing to watch. You have a real gift for teaching and sharing informations. Please keep posting videos!! Yours are always so well done.
Thank you very much- nice of you to say 😀
Hi Suzie, from the Uk, love your videos! I'm very new in my nail education journey and have been practising on my own nails for only a couple of months. I wanted to show you a picture of my first attempt at the reverse french technique...hopefully I can figure out how 🤞xx
This reverse French tip was amazing to watch. I like it, curious as to whether it easier or faster the old way or new one. I know, getting ready for the big reveal. 🤗
Watching your tutorials have helped me so much in applying my acrylics to where they last and aren't lifting. I really feel like I'm taking classes online! LOL
That's just great!!!! I have lots more detailed videos coming 😀
I just got my nails done yesterday by my sister inlaw, my first set of acrylics! Now once the current set grows off, I am sooo going to have her do this! I may even try to do it myself!
Oh that's great! Let me know how you like them 😀
I've always favoured Natural Nails over Acrylic Application but the passion that you have really got me into your videos. I still don't tend towards Acrylic but my opinion about it changed radically after watching your videos. I just subscribed because your calm and sweet voice and your simple explanations make your tutorials really adorable.
All I wanted to say is that, you got a new fan 💘
Thank you for your patience in sharing. Wish you were doing nails when I used to get mine done.
Thank you for sharing your expertise in nail care. You are such a wonderful lady.
I got my first manicare two weeks ago and I got hair stuck in-between the artificial nail every time I shampooed because the nail tech did not file off the cuticle area. It's so painful. Also, it looks funny with a bump. I'm gonna try your tip on filing it off. Thanks!
thats amazing how you can do nails through out a storm and that to me means that u really care about your subscribers . love your work you have really inspired and what i wanna do with my life. love your work😉😆😇.
Aw- that's fabulous😀😀😀💜💜
your enthusiasm is infectious great video
Aw- thank you so much
I love how much you seem to enjoy what you do!! you inspire me to keep learning! you're awesome!!!!!!
+Tiana Russell AWESOME!!
I totally have to try this technique! I've done French in the traditional way, but this looks much easier. Thank you for posting this video Susie! 💅🏻😊
Your welcome- us traditional techs are talented for sure- but this is a great cheat😉
I love your channel! Omg every time I hear that drill I feel like I am at the dentist hahaha but oh well you got to do what you got to do for nails to look awesome :)
Sooo beautiful!!! You're such a huge inspiration in my life, I can't wait to start my second channel BrianaLeeNails. Thanks so much for being a beautiful person inside & out :)
Very cool- I'll check this out😀
I love your videos susie, you always inspire me to keep trying when im having a bad day with nails!
