I love how well you explained this. I had no clue hard gel was that strong.

This is the video I’ve searched for (what feels like) my whole life. 😢 Thank you for being so incredibly informative! ❤ I’m looking to start my gel journey (since I’m SICK of regular polish lasting me a max of 48 hours) and THIS is video I desperately needed!

Omg literally so happy I bumped into this!!! I’m a licensed nail technician and started working at my first salon but never really played around with hard gels which we don’t remove so it can be a bit hard at times to determine which one is it 😩 Thank you!!!

[nicolelast]

Really fantastic explanation on the idea of "flexible" gel and when you would want to use it! Bravo.

[aurraliite]

The hardness and flexibility gel test was good to see. Your videos are always so well done.

[riafitzgerald]

Thank you! Ive been looking fir this info for so long. Unfortunately, most in the industry forget us newbies need this basic info. You rock!!!

[absolutetruthgirl]

So glad you're getting into teaching. You explain things very well. 💯✅

Thank you so much for taking the time to film this video; I've always done my own manicures and now am doing research to see can I transition from salon gel appointments to being able to do it myself. This has been so helpful.

Thank you for this video! I struggled with trying to remove hard gel using acetone, without realizing there was a difference with soft gel! People need to know this stuff! Love your channel! 💖

[destinyrivera]

Oh my God Katie yes! Would love for you to do more in-depth videos on the process between soft gel and the differences between the process between doing a hard gel I've been looking everywhere for these videos but I can't seem to find any really good information ones. I'm new to gel and just kind of learning things as I go but I would appreciate the information.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but Young Nails does their synergy hard gel in a tube and it’s AMAZING. Not quite in a bottle like a BIAB but I’ve also never seen tubes of hard gel until these. Now I can’t live without them 😂

[haidawolf]

got it..finally!! thank you. as soon as you said, that hard gel is a cousin to acrylic...bam! light bulb moment😁

[jajeanjeanne]

BEST instructional, yet!!! 🥰
Thank you!! 😊

[InHisGrace]

First of all, I LOVE your nails. I need and want my nails to look like that! 2nd, thanks for sharing what you used for them.

[kimchicombo]

So is the soft gel just like the typical “gel polishes”?? Thank you so much, not many structured gel techs explains all this … you broke it down clearly .

[kimdemby]

That was really good information. I am not a nail tech and I will only use gel for an overlay on my natural nails. I do like watching the Korean channels with their intricate designs and this was great to explain the differences in the gels I see.

[the.mermaid.scientist]

This was exactly what I was curious about. Thank you Katie =)

[AnitaYzeDogs]

What a lovely, extensive and informative video. Thank you so much for this!

[lindat]

Awesome video Katie 👏😀. Your explanations were clear and concise. Ty for sharing your knowledge with us. 😊

[athertonca]

Such a great video! I use both hard and soft gel with a preference for hard gel. I wish I had been able to find a video like this 10 years ago when I gave up trying to find a good nail salon and started doing my own nails.
