“How do two brothers get into the nail care business?” This is the single most common question people ask us. There’s a long and rocky version but we’ll give you the short one. We have our fearless and unconventional mother, Young Salo, to thank. With a single-minded entrepreneurial spirit, she decided to start her own business at the age of 49. She had a passion for the nail industry and we did everything in our power to support her. In the end, this is a family business.
Greg, the older brother, became a licensed nail technician after switching gears from fire fighter’s training. He is energy personified and has a true passion for developing the best professional nail care products and education. Habib is the younger brother. He jumped in a few years later; taking a detour from medical school and a life in music. He brings his own creative mind for business, marketing and strategy. Unexpectedly, we are a perfect team.
Today, more than 20 years later, Young Nails Inc., is a professional nail care manufacturing company exporting to over 40 countries worldwide and distributing domestically to over 3000 stores. We’re respected for our next-level product innovation and education. Our mission is to bring you the best quality products and we’ll show you how to use them with incredible results. It’s really that simple.
Welcome to the Young Nails family!

I'm mostly a tactile and visual learner, these classes are great. Thank you.
Happy it helped
I was worried my nails were too thick; turns out I’ve been right on the money. Thanks guys!
Love this! I always make my nails on the thicker side. I’m always worried about going too thin!
Better thicker than thin and breaking
The way Greg does nails is what I aspire to be some day. He does it with such ease and makes it seem so simple and easy when it’s anything but lol. I just love his work! 🥰🥰
❤️❤️
I'm just starting and I'm looking at him technique and he is just a master ...what level do you obtain after master lol because that's greg I just ordered their product and let me tell you ....it's superior and by far the easiest to work with ...the only down fall I would say is that I can't see it all close up lol lol lol lol but fantastic inspiring work !
Didn't mean to comment jack though !
I’m sure you guys are probably tired of hearing it but you’re freaking amazing at explaining things so clearly. Love your channel. Tfs
❤️❤️
It seems a lot of us would like to see this same video done for shorter length, also. I am self taught through videos like yours, and trial and error. I love the education you provide. Please consider a follow up to this video for short acrylics/overlays. Thanks a MILLION!!!
More videos coming daily
Can you do this video for someone with really short nails? I struggle with the thick to thin balance on the shorter nails.
Also, what's the proper thickness for encapsulated nails?
Same as in this vid just with art at the base. We do a lot of demonstrations of encapsulated on the real time series
I have asked so many people the exact question and got the business card answer. Thank for enlightening me. Now I have the true answer and structure placement all in one video which I can watch as many times as I like. This is awesome.
Happy you enjoyed it
Great video !! It’s not overly thick .
❤️❤️
Love how you explain things and take your time so we can actually learn and benefit from your videos! Thank you and please never ever stop! 😊😘♥️👍
❤️❤️
These guys really do inspire me to a nail tech , it so sweet how they support their mums BUSINESS for her . I've got to lads all grown and it nice to see the .they are F.A.M.A.I.L.Y xx
I’m so mesmerized watching you do nails.Talk about confidence rising to know I can view your tutorials over and over gain the knowledge I need to create well structured nails. I can’t say Thank you enough.💕
I am so thankful Greg talked about this. I feel that if a person can master the ability to balance thickness throughout the nail....this is one of the keys to a very well done nail, not only mechanically but aesthetically as well. I have been laser focused on building the right structure so that the nail looks AWESOME, and not like a club glued to a finger. Thank you YN for always putting out fabulous information for us....you guys are loved !💜💙💚💛🧡
Thank you for watching!
It’s like you guys can read my mind 😂😂. I was just thinking about this before the vid pop up in my subscription
❤️❤️
YoungNailsInc Lol I was just thinking about this and your guys.
The camera makes things look so huge
They can hear our thoughts now. 😯🤣
Thanks Greg, this really helps. I've just taken all my nails off & re-done them almond shape. They're not as long as Stephanie's, but I've got the free edge just a little thicker than a credit card. I've got them fairly thin at the cuticle & built up a third of the way from the cuticle to my apex & sloping down to the free edge. I'm so pleased with the way they turned out. Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it.😊💅💖😘
Nice!
Greg must be the world's best tutor. Thanks guys.
❤️❤️
Greg’s acrylic application is perfection as usual!
Oh thank you!
He was made to teach! So easy to follow!
Thank you! We’re glad you took the time to watch this video on how thick acrylic should be.
Yaaasssssss! More updated acrylic videos PLEASEEEEEEEEEE!!!
❤️❤️
I'd still love to see a sample of a short, short nail. I'm visual and seeing the structure I think would really help me. My clients tips are just a tad longer than the finger tip. Encapsulating is always fun for me. Thanks, love you
More videos coming daily!
I am currently teaching myself and practicing as much as I can before I enroll in nail school this fall. I CANNOT express how informative this was!!! We get so many opinions on thickness, apex, and c curves that it can be hard to know if I’m doing it correctly. I currently do my own and struggled to file down to the credit card thickness because I just knew I would break them to pieces. (I have 2 kids and 3 dogs!) so I stay at about 1.5 credit card thickness and it works wonderfully. To have professionals and educators back that up elates me to the moon!!! I have way more confidence just knowing I’m not crazy or doing acrylic too think. Thank you thank you THANK YOU!!!
Welcome!
You just gotta love him explains so well
U have the best nail videos on TH-cam. Keep up the great work! 💅🏻
Primo video! Not only was this video creating thickness, you also made it on quick / correct sculpting. Those that are having trouble.... KEEP WATCHING THIS and PRACTICE!
❤️❤️
I love you!!!!!!!! And thank you for this free educations. Sometimes even paid educators dont learn and explain this good!! ❤️❤️❤️
All of Young Nails videos are so helpful thanks for sharing and showing much love always 💅💕💕💕
❤️❤️
Y'all noticed that not only did YN basically give us a while lot of the sculpting game but they did ur in one of the most popular shapes? Thanks for going to infinity and beyond YN!
❤️❤️
I learnt the apex, cuticle and the thickness and I’m getting way better. Thank you so much ❤️
Great to hear!
Gat dang, Greg is such a great educator. 😉😉😉
He sure is!
Just when I was coming to TH-cam to find a video like this, this popped up👏🏽🙌🏽 this is why I love your channel I’m just a beginner but you’ve taught me Sooo much ❤️
Nice
So helpful!! I tend to brush instead of Pull. Good good good. Thank you
Thanks guys - it's a great talking point and when you're learning and starting out, it's always a back-patting moment when all the nails are done and filed to a great finish ❤️❤️❤️
❤️❤️
Thx; you have showed us yet again that the strength lies in the correct building of the APEX. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 I hate flat nails🤢 #teamYN
❤️❤️
Great Example!!!!! That camera work was amazing too!!!
❤️❤️
Soooo pretty and perfect!
This is exactly what I have been struggling with and this video is as always right on time!!!!! Thank you so much
❤️❤️
Great education... Greg thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching
This video helps so much! Thank you! I was getting the edge a little bit too thick. It’s also nice to know exactly where to get the apex set up.
❤️❤️ Happy you enjoyed it
Thanks, Professor Gregg. 😍😍
❤️❤️
This vid was posted on my birthday and I am just now seeing this and this just what the doctor ordered! Thank you so much!
You are such an amazing teacher! I'm a Teacher and Licensed Nail Technician!
❤️❤️
This is what I need. I love going to this Korean owned nail salon that does acrylics for nail biters and they usually avoid the credit card thin look for clients like that. I am a nail biter and they actually ask clients if they are nail biters to thicken the tip precisely to combat nibblers. I managed to grow really long nails because of their method (the acrylics they put on me lasted 2 months even with all of the abuse I put those acrylics through). Currently I am learning to do my own acrylics so your video has helped a lot with applying the beads, though I prefer to use my none electric filers. Thank you so much.
That's awesome
I love this!!!! Thank you so much Greg and the rest of the the Young Nails team. ❤️ you guys ROCK👍
❤️❤️
Perfect, and I'm so glad you've done this video because, i actually disagree with the credit card thickness for the nail extensions, . I do agree a little thicker. I tried it the credit card way, but yes, chipped and cracked. Cheers xxx always a joy to watch.
❤️❤️
This is the video I really needed my nails lately have been snapping and o know it the combo if too thin and apex placement everyone wants thin nails but that perfect balance was hit and miss thank you!

What a great video thank you Greg xx
❤️❤️
You guys are amazing thank you for that well explained visual. At school they dont really teach you that at all.I am so glad you guys take the time to share your knowledge with us who went to school but feel like we should have been thaught alot better and not rushed. I feel some of us could have benifet from alittle more one on one.
School is great to log hrs, the education you seek after is to perfect your craft.
It was really hard finding videos on techniques and real how tos. I appreciate your videos so much. I actually did an amazing acrylic set on myself after making myself go back to learning acrylic application
Glad it helped!
You guys give the best tutorials❤️
thanks
Currently saving up so I can make a huge purchase from you guys on my birthday (May 1st). I’m not licensed but I only plan on learning to do my own nails. I wanted to go to school but the loans were a lot of money, currently in the medical field and I take care of my mother for a living. Quickly learning from your videos, fast nail shops in NY do it all wrong 😳 my nails always lift, and their designs are always lack luster. Definitely going to keep learning with you guys ❤️
Happy you are learning something here!
For me, I always go by the lifestyle of the person I am working on. A credit card thickness for instance looks beautiful and more natural, but only for someone who has a a desk job with no kids for example. I personally do my own nails very thin and naturally, but the the roughest thing I do with my nails is the dishes since I hurt my ankle and quit the gym for a while. For an active gym goer, a bartender, or similar hands on career or a woman with children.. I will do them thicker.
This is honestly why I primarily use YN products, because they are far superior products to work with and it's a breeze to make those adjustments. Some products from other brands are difficult to work with and the subjective adjustments have to be taken care of with filing.
Great advice
How thick for farmers because I like my nails too!!!
Thank you thank you thank you!!!! Finally someone posting about thickness. I have been wondering how thick nails should actually be. Thank you for going into detail on every part and structure for the nail. This is a life saver! #teamyn
