Inspiration is one thing but copying is another. Only thing I "steal" are products and techniques for nail art and quality. The rest I want to be inspired but come up with something new. Trends are the only thing I feel techs should jump on. Idc how long it takes to come to me I want to be my own muse. You're one of the artists that motivated me to keep working btw miss you!
My son is too on the spectrum and this has found me wanting to do this ! You got this!!!! ❤
My daughter is autistic too and I can relate to your story even more. I am opening my press on business this year. I’ve been binge watching your videos. You and @nailsslayedbyval are my gworls!!!!!! ❤
Yess just ordered my tips, so ready to start practicing! Thanks for all your help Dom, love your work & vids!
Love watching your q&a videos! Advice is so legit. You brought me down memory lane. I remember for my bday I got $400 in gifts. Instead of blowing it at Sephora. I bought nail supplies for my press on business.
Anyone reading this her ebook is wonderful!
& now look at you 😍 thank you for watching! 🩶
As a mom, this is something I needed to hear. I used to be a full time LMT and now I’m home with my munchkin but I still want to contribute. This is hopefully my next step ❤
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! You are a great nail artist, and it is inspiring to me that you juggle your business as a stay at home mom of a kiddo on the spectrum. My son has ASD and ADHD. Doing nail art and watching others do nail art is therapeutic for me among all of the chaos.
“I love football but I’m not gonna do a football theme” that literally got me cackling after everything you said before that 😂💀
Genuine question. How is it insulting to ask someone where they get their supplies from? Shouldn’t small businesses support each other? It’s not like you’ll lose business by sharing where you got your charms or your polish. I guess people could copy your designs lol, but like you said. It’s about your individuality. People support you because of you. And copy cats won’t last long anyways. I’ve gotten turned down so many times by small businesses when asking for help. Only one person was honest with me. And she straight up said it was greed lol. They won’t share out of sheer greed. So I’m at a loss. I want to start a small business, but some of these people scare me 😂. Anyways, thanks for such an informative video. Definitely subscribing ❤
I was talking specifically about the nail boxes… lol it is a very easy thing to find anywhere so it comes off lazy when people don’t take the time to at least look for themselves first & expect others to look for them & get the answer. I send links to products all the time on IG to anyone that asks & my whole YT channel is to help people with supplies + their press-on business so idk how you are assuming I don’t support other small businesses with the “shouldn’t small businesses support each other?” question lol.
@@thatgirldom I just found your channel today lol. I checked out your instagram and just saw all your stuff. I didn’t mean to make it seem like I was referring to you specifically. I was just talking about my own experience, and even how I’ve seen other businesses act. Some people are fr mean. My bad if I made it seem like I was attacking you 🥲
I get it. & yeah some people in this field don’t share anything at all & keep all the info to themselves. I never want to be mistaken for that lol.
Love your channel you have very good content ❤❤❤❤ this video was so needed 😊😊
Thank you for sharing. New subscriber ❤ I love doing nails as a hobby, and I'm looking forward to making pressons part-time. I've been working on getting everything together, but now I'm in the process of moving. I believe things happen for a reason, and there may be the place I really take off ❤
Omg!!! My question was answered! Thank you so much for answering! My question was the three parter 😅
You're such an inspiration to me, youre advice if perfect and i love your so down to earth!
stooop it 🥺 thank you so much! 💗
This is relaxing, you are so talented. ❤ I can't design nails for ish lol I just like arts and crafts and this is awesome 🎉
thank you for watching 🩶
Yess thank you for this 🤍
this video comes to me at a great time! thanks boo ❤ i just wanna have a little side hustle too and was gonna start posting all the sets i’ve made for myself before i launch like you did, ik you said not to give stuff for free to influencers but i had been planning on making a few sets for my friends to test out and give me feedback on 😅 how you feel bout that 😭 also i found you o tiktok and i’m so glad you do yt too!! i love your work ❤
you can give them to whoever you’d like! I was talking more so about influencers that ask for free nails because they don’t want to pay 😒 lol
Your work is beautiful and Thank you for all the information
Everything you said made sense. I purchased your ebook and I love everything you said. I’m still trying to find my style 😫
try all kinds of styles! you will end up finding one you love 💗
@@thatgirldom thank you 😊 I sure will
What about sizes?? Before gettimg customers with their sizes , how do i choose sizes to sell them online
When you just started, what nail sizes you choosen to make nails? I mean those ready to sell nails? I having a lot of trouble in it! Can you help?
I didn’t sell ready to ship sets. Everyone had to order a sizing kit in order to buy a set when I first started.
Dom, after watching this video I rewatched part 2, and noticed the nail bed area of the part 2 nail set design was noticeably shorter (more round) than the nail bed area of the nail set design you completed in this video - in which the nail beds are longer and oval shaped.
Was the difference in the size/shape of the nail beds between these two designs on purpose?
Is there an informal visual "formula" you use to determine the length of the nail bed (where you put the smile line) vs the free edge and does it vary depending upon the shape and size of each nail!?
Do my questions make ANY sense whatsoever? 🤔😅
stiletto is always more narrow compared to square. I don’t shape these nails so I have no control over how they look lol.
& no , I just do the french where I feel it should start.
Hi! For sizing kits do you use one where you place nails on card? If so do you ask for them to send nails back as well? Also should I charge for the kits? I don’t currently do that 😩
yes I do & no they don’t send them back lol. I charge $10.
@@thatgirldom TY! They don’t send them back either! Lol I was wondering if that happens all the time!! BTW your work is phenomenal. And this video was very informational.
Do u work with pink nail tips or do u make it like that
it’s gel polish I add to clear tips.
Do you use acrylic or poly gel or just gel polish? For your base ?
gel polish
@ thank you
I've been trying to make some press-on nails for my sister and for myself and I feel like the designs are super cute but I can't get them to look natural >.<
It's kinda like too thick but also I don't know how I can do it differently
Any advice would be super appreciated!!
I needed to hear this dom, thank you...
💗
I feel like your niche or aesthetic of nails is updated trendy styles for the classy baddie lol ❤
a much needed video
Dom we miss you queen 🫶🏾♥️✨🦋🩷🌻🌻🌻
I have been so busy with orders 😭 promise I have more stuff coming though 💗💗💗💗
How long do you have as your processing times? And do you do preorders a lot? Or was that just for your first ever launch?
14-21 business days & that was the only time I have done preorders.
Kinda not related but I NEED to know what gel/product was used 30:27 !!
I use my makartt rhinestone glue for those 3d lines
With having 100+ people to order sizing kits how do you keep up it when they order again?
I limit my orders every week.
Hey love, first and foremost - thank you for this video! I’m actually launching soon. I wanted to ask about the nail tips. I actually have Apres natural tips. I haven’t used them yet (ENC has been my go to). Anyhow, does yours still have a small gap between the natural nail and the tip when applying? Thanks in advance ❤
hiii , this is why I say it’s good to sell sizing kits. for the most part they will fit fine but those with flat nail plates it may not fit so well.
@@thatgirldom Yes I will be doing sizing kits. In this case I was talking about myself lol 😂 & I have curved nail beds. I’ve tried sculpted and natural from Apres. Maybe I’ll stick to ENC for myself. I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t something I was doing wrong for my personal sets.
Thank you for answering my question :)
Are you using gel polish in the airbrush or regular polish?
gel. I don’t use regular polish at all.
@@thatgirldomwhat liquid did you pour into the air brush? Alcohol? What percent?
acetone
Hello Mam
How you choose sizes for different customers ? please let me know
they buy a sizing kit before ordering a nail set.
Hello. Can I ask what nude you used for the base
Should my TikTok and utube and IG be all the same content
2:12 as long as they or you are tagging and giving credit to the original nail tech then it's cool. but when people recreate a set and don't tag the original artist. DRIVES ME UP A WALLLLLL.
Girl I’m a muva too! Haha
omg are you ig
Thank you for this! I just found your page and I’m obsessed as I’m starting my own business soon 🥹 in terms of sending your press ons to influencers ~ what of if they happen to be really close friends with you would you still not recommend it? Because I have been posting on TikTok and IG but I feel like no one sees my work maybe it’s the type of content I put out 🤷🏾♀️ but at the same time i wouldn’t mind gifting my friends some sets in exchange for content. What do you think?
Hi! Good luck on your business 🥺
Do what feels right to you honestly, I should have been more clear but I have sent free nails to a few before just because I genuinely adore them & wanted to. But I just wouldn’t reply on them to bring you customers if that makes more sense? Lol
