I’m DEFINITELY overfilling. Your delivery was so calm and informative and the visual representation of how much you filed at the end was SO eye opening. Thanks so much!
This video is fantastic! Been doing dip for over a year and following your application details made a wonderful difference. Thank you for taking the time to make these tutorials 💖
Thank you for this video. I was about to throw it all away. I kept getting vertical cracks. I tried your method and still going strong with no cracks!!
Great tips in this video. I keep my nails super short and always have issues with them chipping. I'm pretty new to dip nails so I think I made about every mistake you mentioned in this video. Hopefully, this helps! (p.s. I think your mic volume is a little low compared to the other videos I watch on youtube. Even at max volume, your voice is very quiet.)
I did one hand then decided to look up a video on applying dip powder before I started on my other hand since I’ve had issues with cracking within 20 minutes of applying the dip powder. I followed along with your video and can already see a HUGE difference between the hand I did alone and the hand I did following along with your video. Thank you for sharing this video! It’s been my favorite dip tutorial I’ve watched tonight from the tips you shared to your delivery of them. Also, congratulations on starting your own business you are an inspiration! 💖
Thank you for your video! I'm a "newbie" at DIY nail dip and have been watching countess videos to learn and improve my method and yours is definitely a "must-see" for everyone! Very informational and priceless tips and recommendations. You've got a new subscriber and fan. Thanks again!!!
Hi!!! Thank you so much for sharing your technique, I've been doing my own 💅 since last August and nothing worked better than your technique 👍🏻🤗 I got a lot of compliments saying that it looks professionally done!! I will definitely try your products... wish you many more blessings and success! Thanks again
This is such a great video! I have trouble making my nails too wide, especially when I’m trying to get the color/glitter the right opacity. Excited to try this - looks like you are building the apex really well in a fool-proof method!
you are a AMAZING teacher. your voice is so soothing and your so detailed with every step and process of doing nails. I've seen allot of nail dip video's and yours deserves a oscar! im a offical subscriber to your channel.
Thanks so much for this vid!!! The best I’ve watched since I started my DIY nail journey! Beautiful nails!! I can tell You have great quality products, will be ordering! ❤❤
The “trick” as I stated is to add more layers. If you normally use 3/3.5 layers, now try 4.5/5 layers. Eventually you’ll find the best fit for your nails/lifestyle. Glad I could help 🥰
This is a very helpful video. I watch your videos while I'm doing my nails. I think that my latest mani might be the best one yet. I did 5 layers total. Thanks for sharing your skills & talents.
I’m rough on my nails, so also do 5-6 layers each mani. Love the technique of slowly creeping toward the cuticle with each layer - gonna try it! But any tips for using that technique working with more sheer colors? Wondering if it will work with my beloved sheerish pinks/nudes.
@@naildipstudio I used to see a crack or some lifting within 24 hours, these babies are still hanging on strong (and look WAY better too with an apex). I'll never go back to my old method. Thanks again!! 💅🏾💅🏾
The last clear coating is traditionally “Top Coat - Step 4”. You can also use gel clear polish to top-off/seal you dip powder manicure. It’s really based on preference. My liquid sets comes with a Base coat and a Top coat (step 2 & 4), but some liquid systems combine the Base & Top coats together.
Im gonna try to do this steps at the salon see if works for me I’m starting to thinking that it’s the product chip products make a big difference like she said on you dipping also I don’t wanted to look so thick. And the base get so thick around the ring of the bottle that it’s hard to have smooth brush. 😒
@katya - Thank you for your comment! Some products are “poorly made”, so it could be the products you are using. I just recorded a video on “How to prevent your base/top coat brushes from hardening and how to clean/store your liquids”. I’ll post it tomorrow on my TH-cam channel. 🥰
Nail prep is key! Make sure you have prepped your nails for the overlay by doing a dry or wet manicure. Also, make sure you’re using good products (try NDS dip products). And take your time, never rush through your application.
Your video has helped me so much, I appreciate all your videos. One question if I have a client who wants dip powder but no color would I use just clear and if so how many coats would I do? This client like to do color gel polish on top of dip powder.
Thank you so much! I am really glad you enjoy my videos.. To answer your question, I would use no less than 4-1/2 dip applications; file and buff; which will remove one layer; leaving you with 3-1/2 dip applications after filing/buffing; then I would add my gel polish (very thin layers) 🥰
Honestly, by using my products! My dip powders are less harsh than traditional acrylics; also you are soaking off the last application every two-three weeks. Which means no backfilling or excessive eFiling; which means less harm to your natural nail. So if your nail isn’t experiencing any “trauma” they will start to grow and maintain their length.
No worries 😉!! I just wanted to make sure I understood.. For shorter nails, I would omit the apex building (so don’t start with a half dip layer); rather start with a “landing strip” applying your first layer of clear closer to the cuticle and avoiding the sidewalls. Apply your color layers. This will give your shorter nails the appearance of some length.
@@naildipstudio - awesome!! I like how close you can get with doing your nails. The Nailboo liquids are so strong and it’s hard to take your time etc because you just want to get it done. I will have to purchase your products. I have to do them on the porch now because I got the dip flu when doing inside. Thanks so much for getting back to me.
Got a kit, and it's garbage. The nails chip, LITERALLY, within hours. Was wondering, do you think I should mix it with some clear acrylic? Maybe that will make it strong enough to actually last more than a day? The colors are pretty, but I want to try everything before chucking them. Thanks.
Unfortunately a lot of dipkits on the market are trash; this is one of the reasons why I started my own business. I would (1) add additional layers. Try adding 1or 2 more layers to your normal application. This may help?! (2) You can try adding 1 full dip layer as your base layer and maybe add 2 additional clear encapsulating layers (3 layers in total). This may also help you with strengthening. Lastly, purchase a NDS DipKit. I hope this helps 🥰 @wickedwordzz
Both are necessary. The “activator/bond” starts the curing process to harden the dip powder and the “top coat” encapsulates the pigment within the dip powder and creates a high gloss shine.
5 layers are realy too much I think and takes a lot of time.I need about 2 hours for myself when Im taking off old powder and making new one.I do always clear as a first layer and then 2 layers of colour.I do my nails avery 15 days because they grow up fast.Every woman has something else and other method 🤗 I have seen already 100 videos aboud dipping powder nails 🤦♀️🤣🤣 Greatings from Germany
Hello Jovana! 5 layers isn’t too much. Especially when you have to file & shape your nails. During that process you file off anywhere from 1-2 layers, so by the time you finish you’re left with the desired 3 to 4 layers. If you want to avoid cracking. You should always base the amount of dip powder layers based on your daily activities. What works for one person may not work for another.. Hello 👋🏽
This video has changed my nail dip game, super helpful!!! My nails haven’t cracked or chipped. Thank you for taking the time to make this.

Yes, you can use clear dip powder.
@@naildipstudio thank you.
Thank you! Let me know how it turns out🥰
Your natural nails are so long and beautiful! How did you get them so long? 😁
Honestly, by using my products! My dip powders are less harsh than traditional acrylics; also you are soaking off the last application every two-three weeks. Which means no backfilling or excessive eFiling; which means less harm to your natural nail. So if your nail isn’t experiencing any “trauma” they will start to grow and maintain their length.
This is very helpful!! I don’t have long enough nails to keep going a little higher on the nail. Should I be doing shorter layers?
I don’t understand your question; shorter layers? Are you saying that your nails are short?
@@naildipstudio Yes i have short nails, I apologize for the misunderstanding
No worries 😉!! I just wanted to make sure I understood.. For shorter nails, I would omit the apex building (so don’t start with a half dip layer); rather start with a “landing strip” applying your first layer of clear closer to the cuticle and avoiding the sidewalls. Apply your color layers. This will give your shorter nails the appearance of some length.
@@naildipstudio thank you so much!! I will definitely be trying it soon!!
You are truly welcome 🤗
Do your liquids have a strong smell? Do you wear a mask?
No, my liquids don’t have a strong smell. I use a nail vacuum to pickup the dust.
@@naildipstudio - awesome!! I like how close you can get with doing your nails. The Nailboo liquids are so strong and it’s hard to take your time etc because you just want to get it done. I will have to purchase your products.
I have to do them on the porch now because I got the dip flu when doing inside. Thanks so much for getting back to me.

How do you know the strength of a 100/180 file? What side is 100 which is 180?
The 100 side will be Course, very rough to the touch. While the 180 side will have a medium soft smoothness to it.
@@naildipstudio both sides feel very similar to me. Thank you for your channel. You are excellent in demonstrating and talking through the process
Some nail files have the same grit on both sides (100/100). Next time you purchase a nail file - feel for two different textures.
What color is this?
She/s Dope 🦄
@@naildipstudio I just bought that color! The video makes it look red instead of the purple/pink/magenta type color.
Sorry about that!!! I was going off of the thumbnail and not the video 😌.. The dip powder color in the video is “Socialite”.
activated and top coat!? no is necessary?
Both are necessary. The “activator/bond” starts the curing process to harden the dip powder and the “top coat” encapsulates the pigment within the dip powder and creates a high gloss shine.
You are so sweet love your voice
Thank you 🥰
how can I purchase NDS dip system?
Thanks for the support!! Please visit my website at www.naildipstudio.com 🥰
This is all types of helpful, everything she says not to do I would of done.
Thank you 😊
@@naildipstudio you gained another subscriber
Thank you so much 😊
How do you know if the product has been diluted?
Are you referring to the powder or the liquid?
Both. I've been using Rossi Nails Dip Powder for about a few months and when I do my nails, every other day I have to fix cracking and breaking.
I would increase my dip layers (example: if I normally do 3 layers; I would add 1 to 2 more layers for extra strength.
@@naildipstudio ok thank you I'll try that!! 😁
Is mani boss a cheap dip?
