I can't believe this is free.
This is like one of this master class, curiosity stream type shit.

I own a few hard gel products, but i haven't used them yet. Soft gel has served me well enough. 😊

Truly a informative video. Thank You for doing this one. I'm kinda a beginner on nails other than my natural or press on nails. I want to try gel at home.

I wear extensions to prevent me from biting my nails.
I always got acrylic because I hated the way they tasted. I need to figure out know to get acrylic thickness with gel.

I’m interested in learning how to do soft gels since hard gels don’t soak off. Or maybe do both with hard gel on top? I see you mentioned Japanese gels.. could you explain a little more on that and where I can buy? Thank you!

Excellent video! This is the first video of yours I’ve seen and I just subscribed! Great information and well explained. I asked someone about this before and they said soft gel is gel polish and hard gel is the gel product we make the extensions with and I was like uhh I don’t think so lol

[CeciiSolixx]

wow! great review and informative video especially for beginners like me.

I use IBD hard gel and we never apply base coats, only primer and it doesn’t lift.

Glad you were on my recommendation! I work with hard gels.. light elegance & young nails synergy gel but this video was very interesting. Gonna watch your other videos, subscribe, & follow on ig lol

😅 I haven't tried hard gel yet. But soft gel doesn't stay on my nails. It peels off the very next day 😩😔 I think my nails are too weak and flexible. I love doing my own nails but it's getting irritating because it doesn't stay for a long time 😢

[ARTofSound]

Can you use hard gel over soft gel extensions? Like for a finishing coat

[gabriellemartin]

I have a few diff gel systems i have young nails synergy gel (hard gel) bio sculpture, light elegance and some japanese soft gels. I would love to learn more about leaf gel, and also there is a new japanese brand that jist came to the us ricca gel have you gotten to use that yet? i would love to hear your views on that. Also do you ever use an efile while working with your soft gels? And do you soak off each visit or just do a fill each time or when would you suggest soak off and do a new set? Sorry for all the questions

[sarahbatchelder]

Paola do you use luminary?? I find that very interesting. Do you find that it falls into the quality of your normal vetro leaf or kokoist? I actually find those products very different from studying sds sheets. Let me know if you can why you like/use luminary!

Hi Paola! So I'm doing nails at home, just on myself, and I know I've had sensitivity to polygels. As someone who also has acrylate sensitivity, what do you think about IBD hard gel?

[ritagiove]

Hi Paola I work with Light Elegance. Would that be soft gel or hard gel?

[adrianavillicana]

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE OF PRICE BETWEEN SCULPTURED HARD GEL AND SCULPTURED SOFT GEL?
