Back to Basics: How to Prep a Nail like Kirsty

- Hi everybody
Today I'm going back to basics and prepping a nail. I'm at NABDA in Scotland today too.
I don't always push back the cuticle unless the cuticle is really long and dry because the file with push it back. I start in the middle, pointing to 1 o clock and file away the dead tissue and push back the cuticle a bit. I also come down the side walls on both sides of the nail. I switch the rotation for the other side of the nail so the bit always pushes the skin away from the nail, also point at 11 o clock for this direction.
I'm then going to change to a ball bit to exfoliate the excess skin away. If there is too much to exfoliate but if this doesn't work, it can be cut.
I then lightly remove the shine and free edge with a 180 grit file and then clean off with gel residue wipe off solution.
I hope you enjoyed that video, don't forget to check out our socials and like and subscribe.
See ya later
Kirsty

You are hands down the best nail tech teacher there is. Your teaching methods are straightforward and very simple
Oh yes! Are you planning more current back to basics? I hope so!
A friend recently asked me to go with her when she got acrylics. She said her extensions only lasted a couple weeks at most and wanted to see if I could find anything wrong with the application. For starters, her nail tech didn't clean the dust off after removing the surface shine! She just put the primer straight on top of the dusty nails and then the acrylic. I have to imagine she was depositing a bit of skin and nail dust back into the bottle, too. I am going to show her this video. Even if techs have different ways of prepping the nails it seems like certain things would be the same.
You are the best teacher! I am also a teacher so I recognize excellence when I see it! You actually teach like an RN. I really appreciate you. 🥰
These back to basics videos are always helpful!
Thanks Kirsty
I love that you share your in depth cuticle work, I really need to learn more about that :3
I straight LOVE how much Faye has influenced this channel!!! Just one more reason watching the channel is so great- because we all feel like close friends with Kirsty!! We are all so thankful for not only amazing tutorials, and “why not” designs, but also being such a forth coming person!!!! I actually don’t watch you in between or while I’m doing anything else! I get prepared for the weekly videos and just enjoy! Nothing but love from MN;)
I've been doing it wrong (on myself, thank God) 🤦🏽♀️Thanks so much for setting me straight!
Me too 😭 I've always pushed the cuticles back then used the ball bit 😣
You’re camera quality is perfection !!! Thank you
I would love a video about cleaning the bits of the nail efile!
You can clean them with isopropyl alcohol and steralise them in a auto clave I put mine in a dish with acetone if thy get any gel or acrylic on them let them soak 20 mins give them a brush with my brush and it cleans them and the acetone cleans them.

I love your work soo much. And i followed your steps and i successfully sculpted an edgeletto!😆
Thank you for teaching me that there is a Forward and backward switch on the drill. I'm slowly teaching myself nails and always wondered why the drill was working against me! So helpful!
Some really only go one way
I couldnt think of a better teacher!
This has been incredibly helpful - extreme hard skin on the sides of my nails and I would cut it but with no success - filing is something I will be practicing - Thank you
Yes 🙌🏼 Love this, so very helpful. 💞💯
OMG!! you were in my neck of the woods! so cool, great educational video xxx
I am loving all the tutorials! Keep them coming please 💕💕
Great,I've noticed few tech I've spoken to had not realise that with push the cuticle back like you've done with wipe it gives us that little bit more room to play as cuticle with come back down over 24hrs coming close up to the enhancement . I even go back in with orange wood stick on next hand before I start just to make sure I've got it pushed right back, it Shane we can't take pictures the next day of our work when cuticles have dropped back ..
Doing my nails for 20yrs how much things have change I was always told don't see saw too.. It's getting the right teacher/eduction that is the key to great lasting nails 💗💗
I was wondering if its possible to prep a really wobbly nail? Like bumpy. I know some people have bumps on their nail,natural or because of injury.And how you would do it? And I have seen people with cuticle down half the nails🙄 would be fun to see how you prep a really difficult nail!
Love your videos 😍
Thank you for sharing you're knowledge with us Kirsty. ❤❤❤
Helpful as always Kirsty
Thank You so much! Now I’ll be able to apply nail polish without getting it all over my skin. I’ve tried this but was doing it wrong. The reverse part especially
Thank you for imparting knowledge the best you could.❤
Thank you sooooo much Kirsty💅Ive been waiting to see you do tutorial on the e-file. 💐💖
Kirsty are plaining on having a nail class in los angeles ca your the best
LOVE WATCHING YOU!! YOU DO AMAZING NAILS AND HAVE ARE REAAL!!
I really wish my girls would watch this and put it into practice. They are always complaining about lifting and I tell them it's all in the prep 😄
Thank you this video is very helpful!! 💯💯💯💯
Brilliant video this really helped thanks for sharing x
Loving these back to basics tutorials x
Those bits are really interesting. I wouldn't be aloud them in school of course, but when I am licensed I might try those out.
KenzieHurlock what do you mean? It’s mandatory to at least learn about it in school and if you ask I’m sure your instructor would allow you to at least practice on a fake hand
Love you Kirsty !!!! Great information
Thank u I love these back to basic they really help
OMG Kirsty I love ya tons!! You hold nothing back lol 😜 I would love to be in a class with you one day 🙌😊💗
This is such a useful and helpful video, thanks Kirsty, Xv
I wish we weren’t across fe pond from each other because I would absolutely LOVE to have you do my nails!
“Start to sneak back down” lol. Those cuticles...sneaky bums.
Now I know how to get the product on the entire nail without getting it on the cuticle area - or the skin. Thank you.
You didn’t mention what speed you had your efile on for the prep? 🤔. Excellent thank you. 👍🏼
So satisfying to watch!! Where can you get them e-file cuticle bits from, please? 💕
I learned to do my own nails watching your videos and I thank you very much! Recently I was a hand model and they were teaching to put a nail form for a long almond by lining the tip with the centre of the cuticle area rather than lining up the extension with the side walls. They still make an apex but the overall nail ends up being flatter. Is that wrong or is it a different way of sculpting a nail?
Kirsty, is your tan natural or from a bottle, lamp, etc. Looks great 🌞. Thanks for the 💅 tutorial K & A. Have a great weekend all, Sue Ellen from WV 😸
Finalmente video diverso posto diverso? Tutto piu luminoso!!!!!
I love you so much I subscribe and like all the videos
Recently I’ve been using a nail file to file the dry skin around my nails and using hand cream and now the skin around my nails is lovely and soft for the first time
First OMG I LOVE watching you so much
Yes I learned to file to the middle as well!! It’s batshit crazy- no one has time for that 😂😂😂
awesome as ever hun xx
Wow, Kirsty, you're very tan! For your skin's sake I really hope it's spray tan. Thanks for doing this video. Every time I think I've finally got prep down pat I learn that I'm still not that good. It could be because I'm my only "client," so I don't do new sets very often.
This is the method I’ve used for over 20 years. 😁
bravo magnifique gros bisous Martine 👍👍👍👏👏👏💅💅💅😙👄👄❤
Where did you get your e file Kristy? I love these videos please make more they are so helpful
Hi Kirsty why do we use gel residue wipe off and not sanitizing spray ? Is there a reason for this please x
Can you tell us more about adding tips. Reason why I ask because our fingers aren’t straight so how do you kinda put the tip to the finger bedding to make it look straight or do we just place the tip to the finger bed how the person nails are positioned?
It is raining here in Sydney as well
Can you do a video on using hand files?
So what is the first bit? I have the second one.
Yes! I'm assuming it's a diamond bit since it can be used in both directions just as effectively.
Omg I'm here early. Please come down to the south west 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
My nail tech did this process on me and I found the alcohol wipe and acrylic application afterwards made the cuticle areas sting and burn - Is that a fairly normal part of the process?
No its not.. it means that they took a lil to much live instead of dead skin/cuticle.. I'm so scared to do this to people bc if you take to much it could cause a HUGE infection.. noooo bueno! Lol so I barely touch clients cuticles for that reason exactly.. hope that helps a lil.. im sure Kirsty can explain it a lil better tho.. have a good one hun 😊
Hi can you tell me why my gel polish seems to pill off on the side and all i use the same brand and i prep prime and top coat as well. ?
It could be from being too close to the skin or cuticle? It can cause lifting. :)
You make a great teacher
Did you play with tree nuts? Or it’s a tan ? ❤️
What if you don't have gel residue wipe off solution? Can we just use alcohol?
I have a similar e-file. What speed do you have you file on when doing this prep work and what speed do you use for debulking when doing infills? X
Cameras so good I can see her cracked nail! Wonder how that happened?
What speed is your E file on please ? x
so helpful❤❤
Basic! Kristy doesn’t do basic! 😆
Thank you!
I wish we were told what speed we are meant to use these bits on. xx
Do you have to cut the natural nail off short to do acrylic or hybrid gel nails??
Miranda Jones if you use tips then yes, if you want to grow your nails you can do an overlay, and if you want to extend but still have long nails you will have to just make sure you fit the form properly and sculpt it normally
Thank you now how do u fix damaged bitten nails my mother needs serious help woth hers and idk what to do about them because she can't get them to grow nicely anymore haha
In my not-a-nail-tech opinion, acrylics are the best for people with chronically damaged nails because it protects them a bit. When my name was recovering from cancer she had fakes on constantly because chemo made her nails so bad.
If your mumhas acrylics she won't be able to bite them off because they're so thick.
I did hard gel extensions on mine, because I was able to bite off acrylic if my nails. Having extensions was the only way that stop biting my nails. After a year I went to soak off gel manicure and now I wear my natural nails without biting them
You are fantastic ❤️
Thanks Kristy for good lesson........ I have a question... form extension is good for nails or using nail tips is good for nail extensions
Pls suggest
Neither is superior to the other they are both just a platform to build a nail x
Jabeen Mistry it depends on what you prefer. With tips you can buy them pre-shaped and some people believe it’s faster and easier application but it has less c-curve. With forms you can create a deep c-curve and buy forms that have lines to follow for different shapes but you still have to freehand them.
What bit are you use for the cuticles?
What e-file are you using? It's super quiet!!
What grit is the bits you used?
which efile do you use?? tia xx
What speed was the efile on?😊
Which e-file are you using?
Great thAnk you

Ceri Hughes make sure you file and dehydrate your nails well and use an acid based primer
