This is honestly the best tutorial I have found that explains how to do it with tips and not just forming with the acrylic! Thank you!! You have saved me many hours of pain and frustration!
Nina Lights she's blended them in w a soft gritt file into the nail this is great to do to not only do the shape but blending the plastic only making it thinner all over. Ballerina is done at a 90%angle it's easier to do using the guide of your finger tip.this is time consuming rather than using straight edged clippers taking off the edges speeding up the process. U can't really file clients nails this way but gives you a lot of info about the various shapes. She's an experienced nail tech. Practice makes perfect even for the best they still practice.
To anyone who’s reading this to know if this tutorial is helpful, y’all this is the tutorial that was a 100% accurate. Like literally, I tried following so many tuts and messed up my nails several times but she explained it so accurately and to the point that I have the nail shape I’ve always wanted now!
I have watched SO MANY videos on how to shape my nails and never can get it, I do my own nails and Have never been able to get my shape right. But I stumbled across this video and THANK YOU SO MUCH for how you explained it!! I FINALLY got the shape exactly how I’ve always wanted!!
Hi, she’s really one of the best nail techs , out there. Haven’t seen any recent videos though . Don’t know what’s going on, hope she is ok…@SamiMetheney
Actually, these coffin nails are called tapered square. Go to 6.9m and you'll see the correct coffin nail look. Go to gemma lamberts channel, she shows you tapered,coffin and ballerina.
I got the nail tips from Sally's they are in the colour natural. I don't know the make but it isn't about the tips it's about how you apply and blend them in.
Finally found a video that actually shows you how to shape your nails and do different shapes. This video is the best helped me out so much. Thank you!!
Try holding your file straight up not on an angle, i used to do same. Its how you hold the file and need to come straight out from side wall then shape not shape from where you get the divot where the divot is it is still straight there. Not sure if that makes sense but try holding file different.
I always have trouble filing the free edge straight, they look straight but when I hold the client's hand up they're not. It's a serious issue with me I just cannot file square shaped nails. PLEEEASE HEEEEELP
You did these perfectly,my fav has to be the almond nail,iwent to get them done yesterday but not quite what I hoping for,look more like rounded so ill b doin them myself from now on,I'm a new subbie and I love ur work xxxx
EllCii1 all I have done is stuck the nail tips on with glue and blended in the seam. No acrylic has been applied as soon as I finished the video I removed the tips.
NonaPhilippa Oh dear, I figured that might be the case seeing as it made light work of those tips. I want to find the perfect file for taking down length quickly whilst sealing. At the moment I use the Leighton Deny glass file and Boots Smoothing file but I'd like a super quick solution.
Why don't you try Opi nail files they're called manicure files and are an orange colour they're very good for natural nails! And are of the foam variety
Loved this video, it was so helpful watching you do it from your own point of view. This tutorial showed me the easiest & most consistent techniques for when I'm shaping my nails (and my 2 girls & my mom's, because I do theirs too! ) Amazing, thanks for sharing!
My nail is pretty long so can I just shape it like the oval one or is it bad for my nails that's why I only see people doing it with tips insted of doing it directly onto the nail?
Can I still do almond because my nails are long but they're ver curved. They kind of look like simplynailogicals but shorter. Do I just file off the curve?
What do you mean it comes out weird? Try looking at it from another angle aswell: after filing like this I will then stretch my hand out to see what it looks like from that perspective too. It does take practise but you'll get there I'm sure
Nona , would you recommend the oval or almond shape for people with thin natural nails? Have been wanting to try that shape now that I'm growing my nails but don't want to sacrifice shape if it doesn't work out..
that's a great video ") simple and yet detailed..when you apply the acrylic do you use the buffer machine? can you show us how to use it..im a beginner :)
I'm already a subby but i just HAD to thank you i got my nails done and they went what i wanted the lady was in training her self which i aint knocking her for she just needs a bit more practice. so i cut down my long hybrid of stiletto and almond and followed ur steps and have a beautiful hand of natual looking nails. thank you for restoring my faith in getting false nails really helped me out wish i could send you a picture
Thank you for the great tips! The only thing I would add is to make sure and use a glass nail file as this will make filing much easier and they come is lots of different grits. The good ones are usually made in Czech republic and will last you for thousands of hours of use, not to mention they are also tempered so they are super heavy duty. Another advantage of using glass files is that you can go back and forward on natural nails with them and it WON'T damage them like a regular nail file. I bought some from Amazon before but MyNailMakeover.com offers some of the best files in the market and they also provide a lifetime warranty which covers the files even if they break. I've been using their files for years and even bought some for gifts. Other glass files of lesser quality are still much better than using emery boards or metal files, but will eventually wear out therefore still having to replace them. I've done hundreds of manicures using glass files and I won't use anything else!

Seriously!
Almond shapes? I call this witchcraft. There is no way I can get them right 😥
QA Purrsian 😂💀
HOW DO THEY LOOK SO MATURAL I THOUGHT THEY WERE REALQ
Matural?
+Franchesca Fails Natural. U dont have to comment. I think u understood❤️
"Natural" you mean

Melinda Christie do you mean she filed on top of wear she glued the tip?
My favorite was the almond shape. :)
Almond is so beautiful. < 3
almond is pretty your so right
I like the coffin style
Every time I've looked for a video like this, I always get ones where people are doing acrylic nails. Thanks for this, really good instructions
Unknown Geek these are acrylic
Very helpful !
Theirs just something about nail filing that gives me goosebumps lol like nails on a chalkboard
Yeh a lot of people feel that way about the sound of filing nails you're not alone
@@NonaPhilippa Awesome tutorial. What shape do you think I can wear, with my short nail bed and also wide ? My hands are small though. Thanks 😊

My most favourite was the square/squareoval⬜... I have been doing the same since past 5 years now, 🤗
Thank you so much for this video. it was very helpful for me trying to file my nails in the coffin shape!

+NonaPhilippa I would love to see a video of you applying and blending. Mine never seem natural enough
please show us how you blend them
i really loved the Oval/Round .........., hi guys please cheak my videos pls like , subscribe , and comment😉 love u
I would also like to see a blending video
+ZAIN KILLER your vids are private. Sorry. Can't.
oh ok, now i have a better understanding of how to shape each of these, thank u :-)
Thank you. I managed to file my nails perfectly in an almond shape. For the first time in my life! 😘😘😘
This is the best way someone has ever explained how to do the almond shape. I'm gonna try it this way when I do my nails again.
Finally found a video that actually shows you how to shape your nails and do different shapes. This video is the best helped me out so much. Thank you!!
My problem is I like squoval, but the way I file them makes them break as they grow out. when I do the sidewalls, I somehow make a divot in them.
Try holding your file straight up not on an angle, i used to do same. Its how you hold the file and need to come straight out from side wall then shape not shape from where you get the divot where the divot is it is still straight there. Not sure if that makes sense but try holding file different.
Appreciate the tip about angling the file to finger tip for the almond shape ! Will try this when I do my nails tomorrow
Such an informative video!! Thank you so much for your content!! I finally feel confident enough to try for an almond shape!!
I did a square on short (normal) nails and it looked a bit weird so I would not recommend doing that,so now I'm just waiting for them to grow.
This is just reeeaaally satisfying to watch.
Coffin starts at 5:34
Mackenzie why'd you comment this?
xx
i was looking for coffin, and i realized people didnt come to learn all of the nail shapes but just a certain one, so im saving peoples time
Mackenzie thanks I actually came for the coffin haha.
I always have trouble filing the free edge straight, they look straight but when I hold the client's hand up they're not. It's a serious issue with me I just cannot file square shaped nails. PLEEEASE HEEEEELP
Practise practise practice 🤗
Or u can also practise on nail tips ..do your friends/ relatives nails for free ALL the very best
This is the first time I have tried to file my own nails great video explained well really pleased
i just need to say this is the best video for shaping nails!
You did these perfectly,my fav has to be the almond nail,iwent to get them done yesterday but not quite what I hoping for,look more like rounded so ill b doin them myself from now on,I'm a new subbie and I love ur work xxxx
I need that nail filer in my life !!! Where did you get it?

Are your nails bonded with acrylics or just glue?? meaning or these full coverage or tips lol and brand of name please
EllCii1 all I have done is stuck the nail tips on with glue and blended in the seam. No acrylic has been applied as soon as I finished the video I removed the tips.
Thank you for the demos and explanation! I loved it!
where did you that file?
I love almond and square shape....
Brilliant video!! I love to change up my nail shape.
What grit is that Harmony nail file? It was pretty effective - is it okay for natural nails?
Thanks Hun! It's a 180/180 grit I think but no not good for natural nails I'm afraid fine for tips and acrylic or gel but not natural.
NonaPhilippa Oh dear, I figured that might be the case seeing as it made light work of those tips. I want to find the perfect file for taking down length quickly whilst sealing. At the moment I use the Leighton Deny glass file and Boots Smoothing file but I'd like a super quick solution.

@@NonaPhilippa What grit do u recommend for natural nails?
This is a wonderful video!!! Thanks sweetie 😘
Can you do a video on what shape look good for that finger
wow Nec Thank you very much
Great video, thanks for the tips on files from OPI have to lookout for those.
great video thank you can i ask out of interest are you a qualified beautician or nail technician ?
I am a qualified nail technician Donna

Got the nails I ve always wanted
Thanks for this Nona, I've just trained as a manicurist , and I need to practice a lot of filing & shaping .This video really comes in handy .
This is the most helpful shaping tutorial I've found! Thank you!
If I have almond nails how do I shape it into a square again..
You will have to cut or file them down straight across til you get the shape you want.
Tip for almonds, start them off really early. They will look awkward at first but it will be easier to shape as they grow out
I think the background was causing problem while watching🤷♀️
Shorter almond: 3:00
Thank you so much I'm going to try oval🙂very understandable instructionsx
She sounds like adele
Shorter coffin: 7:10
My nail is pretty long so can I just shape it like the oval one or is it bad for my nails that's why I only see people doing it with tips insted of doing it directly onto the nail?
*When all of your family doesn’t have long nails and has a performance task in school to do this*
My favorite nail shape is Almond but coffin is a close favorite followed by oval
Hola! por favor me podes hser un video para haser el gel esmimeprmante?con tambien l'ugna pintada?
Can I still do almond because my nails are long but they're ver curved. They kind of look like simplynailogicals but shorter. Do I just file off the curve?
Lovely, thank you for this video. Can i ask wich tips you use? They look so Natural 😍❤
How did u grow ur nails so long but still so WHITE? Most women have naturally yellowish long nails
This video absolutely going to my favorites!
What's the difference between squarely round and Square oval
So nice mam
Umm nice
Loved this! Still struggling to get the Coffin right though :(
Still comes out a little wierd... practice practice right
What do you mean it comes out weird? Try looking at it from another angle aswell: after filing like this I will then stretch my hand out to see what it looks like from that perspective too. It does take practise but you'll get there I'm sure
Its hard to watch,the camera blurs while your filing.
This tutorial is good and everything but how the fuck im gonna do the left hand 🌚
really nice video very helpful :) thank you

Agreed. :)
Thanks a lot this vedio is very detailed it will help me put a meal on my table for my family
GREAT Video. What Brand Of Tips Did You Use? And Where They The Overlap Kind? if You Don't Mind Me Asking:)
I tried all shapes of nails exept the square oh i hate how the sides break and then i have to make all my nails shorter
واااو كتيررر حلوين 😍😍😍
I LOVE the coffin shape because you can have them super long without them looking tacky lol
I have a lot longer nails and there square I'm gonna do them stiletto/almond
Thank you! Now i know what nail shape Khloe Kardashian usually wears! :D
Which 1 is that?
I love almond
Nona , would you recommend the oval or almond shape for people with thin natural nails? Have been wanting to try that shape now that I'm growing my nails but don't want to sacrifice shape if it doesn't work out..
Chase A yes you could go for a rounder or almond shape as I think most people find the corners of their square nails break first?
NonaPhilippa thanks alot for answering.I did go oval and it seems good so far. :) I'm subscribing to your channel.Thaks for the vids, very informative
I dint know the Index FINGER was my Pinkie!! But great Video!!
Thanks it really helped me , can u tell me the name of thing that u use to cut he nail
Thank you very much. So so helpful 👌
that's a great video ") simple and yet detailed..when you apply the acrylic do you use the buffer machine? can you show us how to use it..im a beginner :)
Where do you get your files, and what is the grit?
I'm already a subby but i just HAD to thank you i got my nails done and they went what i wanted the lady was in training her self which i aint knocking her for she just needs a bit more practice. so i cut down my long hybrid of stiletto and almond and followed ur steps and have a beautiful hand of natual looking nails. thank you for restoring my faith in getting false nails really helped me out wish i could send you a picture
I don't get the appeal of coffin. It just looks like a stiletto where the tip broke off. Maybe someone can explain it to me lol

Great video where did you get your tips from
They are just from Sally's
Wow thank u so much
What kind of tips are you using? Love the video.
They're just natural tips from Sally's
Cleared so much up for me! Excellent video, you should make ASMR videos too :)
Immmmh are those real nails?????????¿???¿¿
I might sound kind of weird, but the nail filing reminds me of some ASMR stuff. XD
Quality ruined it otherwise great
Thank you, I used this video to get my natural nails in the almond shape. I quite like it actually 🙂
