Recreating My Old 2017 Nail Design – Spiral Nails

what’s up y’all today I’m going to be recreating these nails that I did in 2017 these were one of my favorite nails at the time I was really into Spirals and I want to see if I can recreate this look but make it a little more wearable I don’t know we shall see this is the intro to long hair pretty nail show yeah so all right you know I was I was trying to give a little something I was trying to give a little sound sound all right so y’all get the point so yeah I’m going to be redoing these oh I still got it
playing hold up hold up all right so I got a bit of everything here I was trying to find the glitter that I actually used I don’t think I have it anymore so we got some variations of some stuff that I can mix together and make it I also have a surplus of I’m not sure if the OG’s know I used to sell glitter on my website and so I got some of this this was the Unicorn glitter it’s sort of close I might have to mix some stuff with it to give it that same look so I think that’s probably what I need to do first I need to mix the
glitter and then we’ll go from there okay well that was a hand mix glitter back then I don’t know y’all that was a long time ago 2017 when I be telling you that I’ve been on YouTube for a long time I’ve been on YouTube a long time okay all right so I am just going to mix some of this let’s see if we can kind of get close okay I like the chunkiness of this of the Unicorn I should put this back on the site huh all right so we’re going to pour some of you in there this is so much glitter y’all know I love glitter this
isn’t the only one that I have left over I have like all of them okay so we got that I remember it being like a little darker like a little fuchsia going add a little bit of that this is just like a witch’s brew of glitter okay I think that kind of tones it down just a little bit let’s just add a little more this is going to be a custom mix because I’m not going to be able to use all of this but I may use it some other time and I have these left over from Kara sky I believe it had like a little kind of
kind of pink to it kind of not I don’t know we going to mix some of that in too I don’t cuz I need like it to not just be all chunky glitter it needs to be like a mixture so it Blends and goes okay that’s starting to look similar a it let me move yall a little closer all right so that is what I have and do I have any gold glitter okay I do I have a little bit so we’re going to add just a little bit of this cuz it was gold in there I just I wish I had chunkier gold pieces so we going to mix some
gold okay I’m like can you even tell yeah you can let me check one place hold up all right I think I may have found some gold oh okay perfect that is what I’m looking for and this is just that same glitter set that I have from El rzy I think this is probably going to get me as close as I can to it it ain’t going to be exact but y’all get it let’s add some of this okay I’m going to add just a little more I’m kind of just doing this by sight if it kind of feels like what I’m going for okay we going to add a little trying
not to spill all right that should do of course I’m going to be using nail forms these are the ones that I used one two three four five one I’m going to use today I think I used acrylic last time time we’re going to use Patty gel this time so I have the Pink nude and the clear I’m going to end up mixing clear and the glitter to kind of give me that look and because these are going to be a little crazy I’m going have to take them off kind of soon after we’re going to use some pill off base coat so let me go
ahead and put that on now all right so we going to put this on cuz I I have one one more child than I did back in 2017 so I ain’t going to be able to wear them that long I’m going try not to make them as long I don’t know we’ll see trying to make them wearable come on Focus okay sometimes if it’s too much glitter too much reflection my camera lens don’t want to focus all right so I’m going to go ahead and cure that so now I’m going to go ahead and put these on making sure to line them up with my
knuckle all right all of the nail forms are on and just getting everything ready got my alcohol for slip solution put this in the dampen dish and I’m going to start off with the Pink nude Patty gel and my brush all right so we going squeeze out some of this uh it’s going to be a elongated nail bed so I may just need probably that’ll probably do all right and then just putting that on the nail okay I was wondering if this was going to be you know it’s going to be inspired I don’t have everything that
I had back then but I think this one’s going to be better so we’re just going to work this in place o I love this color it is one of my favorite colors of Patty gel and it’s just super super easy to work with but I’m just going to do a little kind of soft almond shape I’m going to file this as well so but that’s looking good you guys love this color as well we’re currently sold out but our shipment is should be here any day now so check back um but yeah this one is my goto kind of shape it how I want it like
I said a little a little soft almond and I’m just dampening my brush with alcohol to make sure it doesn’t stick and that I’m able to move the product around with ease and you know I always got to bring it up to me just to make sure I’m seeing what I’m seeing kind of have a soft hand cuz if you put too much pressure you’re going to move it too much okay so I am just going to play around with this a little more until I like it okay I think that’s good there we have it so I’m going to go ahead and cure this and do the same for
all of the nails all right all of the nail beds are on so I’mma go ahead and take this off uh so we can file and Crispen them up oh what this little cute cute little oval almonds whatever shape this is all right so we’re just going to go ahead and wipe these off and if you’re wondering what’s on my other hand this is a ruby Patty gel I did a short on these so go check it out if you haven’t already all right so I just want to clean up the side the shape is kind of you know pretty much where I want it to be we’re just
going to Crispen it up all right these are cute cute little nails all right so next I’m going to mix some clear we going to see how this turns out bringing out the old school mixing towel going to take the clear and just put a good amount since I need a lot and let’s just pour some over here let’s see not sure how much I’m going to need but this is a lot so just going to mix all of this making sure to kind of grab as much of the glitter all right this is mixing well I think that’s good all right so I’m just going to put
the nail forms on so just putting this back on so we can do our our French tip all right and then we’re just going to put some of this down it looks fun like confetti this is starting to give give the Vibes that I was looking for all right so now I am just going to form this into a French tip just making sure everything is lined up where it needs to be and I am going to encapsulate this so this layer doesn’t need to be super thick M the glitter actually mixed very well with the clear Patty gel I want to say
this is my first time mixing something with it we see all right and this is going to be stiletto yeah we going to do a stiletto so I’m just going to work it down it’s probably going to be fairly long I was trying not to make make it super long but uh I don’t know let’s see okay yeah it’s going it’s going to have a little length on it okay so I’m going to take this down to the four on my form and just using the alcohol to sprad it out evenly we don’t want it super chunky okay okay okay I was hoping that
I could still kind of get the look of the glitter that I used and this is like really close all right so having to kind of hold the form a little bit so it doesn’t uh dro down okay cuz I want this to be a really crisp shape ooh this is going to be very very pretty all right and just tucking it back in here okay and I’m just making sure that I have the glitter like really where I want it to be and here I said oh they’re going to be wearable no they’re not I do want to take it just down a little bit
more trying to keep it at the four if we can I might need to take that off that one’s getting in the way all right so let me fix this shape again it’s all right I was trying to kind of keep the shape where I wanted it to be but we will fix this with filing all right I think I’m liking the overall shape of this all right so let’s go ahead and care all right so we have the tip salade oh cute okay so as y’all can see I was scraping I need to just mix a little bit more for our spiral [Music] so H don’t know how much I’m going to
need I think I think that should be good and then just sprinkle some more glitter on top and let’s give this a mix just making sure it’s grabbing all of the glitter kind of going to scoop up up what I have on the mixing plate all right that should be a good amount okay so I was trying to decide how I was going to do the spiral so I want to make it a little I don’t want to make it as wide as the last time so I’m thinking if I do it I don’t know kind of like I guess I could tack it down and then or I was thinking I don’t know how
this will work out but okay I should have done this before let’s see if I can get my my nails through the scissors oh perfect all right so I was thinking maybe like cutting a strip of the paper okay now I need to carefully get my thumb out okay let’s see I don’t want to mess these up cuz I still need them okay so I was thinking maybe like putting a strip of the glitter Patty gel on this and then like no okay no I know what I’m going to do we’re going to do it the old school way we’re going to tack this down with some
glue and then just form it on the straw yeah all right so I’m going to cut it well you know what I’m just going to glue it down first just tack it down a little bit all right so we got a little bit of glue and then I’m just going to put this like that hopefully it’ll just stay in place long enough and then I’ll be able to pop it off so we’re going to blow speed up the drying process okay it’s not going to stick so I’m just going to form it on the straw and then we’ll take it off and put it on all
right so let’s just put some on here oo dinner is smelling so good I am so hungry okay hopefully I’m able to spread this out a little neater once we get it on the straw and then I’m just going to mold this how I want it to be and how thin I want it to be cuz I want this to be much smaller than the first time so we’re just going to use the alcohol and the brush to mold this sorry y’all the glitter is really making it not focus well but y’all see what I’m doing and then once I’m done forming this we’r
going to cap everything with with clear yeah we are maybe we’ll see it looks like it’s covering everything but I want to make sure I do want to file this a little bit so yeah I am going to have to cap it so just working on this all right I want the spiral to be a little tighter so I’m probably going to work on that it’s going to take a lot good thing we’re using Patty gel where I got all the time in the world I also don’t want it to be crazy thick either so as you can see I’m constantly having to turn the
straw I’m just going to smooth it okay I might have to just zoom out so it can stop doing that but yeah I’m just going to smooth it out get this the way that we want it to be I remember the first time I did this um I did it with acrylic and you have to work really fast and uh you know I was able to do it but you definitely don’t have the time to really like you have to be fast so I’m I’m happy that with this one I can take my time and really perfect it the way that I want and don’t have to rely solely on
just the shaping and the filing all right it is looking so much better I’m using the spatula to kind of push everything where I want it and then I’ll use the brush to smooth and spread but okay we are getting somewhere yeah just as you can see it’s a little chunkier in some places I was just concentrating on getting the Patty gel on the straw and then I can smooth and make it perfect okay and I also want to keep the spirals um I guess short like I don’t want too El elongate them too much cuz I’m trying to get as many like rotations
as I can get without it being crazy long but I think I like this spacing kind of like a little glitter snake Okay I’m going continue to work on this and I’ll be back all right I like the way this is looking and I kind of got to hurry up because since it’s kind of war in here so I am just wiping in between each spiral and then I’m going to cure this I’m sure I’m probably going to have to do some filing in between but I just want to make sure that we have a defined spiral you know what I don’t think I
will have to top coat I mean encapsulate this because the glitter is really mixed in to where the clear is on top so there’s not any exposed glitter I’ll see what it looks like once I pop it off of this but I think we may be good all right I’m just going to go ahead and cure this and I’m just going to spin the straw to make sure all all of the Spiral is [Music] cured let’s let’s go again just to just for good measure okay that is cured but I just got the call for dinner so I’m going to eat CU I’m hungry and it
is salmon night BR it in yep they got to be tired of seeing your your film day [Laughter] salmon I don’t care I love salmon oh what we got today okay broccoli homemade mash the same let me get the sauce oh I see you got my little extra piece of skin here that I love I promise we eat more than salmon this is just what she request on film day so sorry oh with the deal sauce oh my God I just you ain’t do it right you squeezing the life out of it it’s all right I just need a little bit start just need a little
bit M y’all hear that crisp I love salmon trying to trying to show y’all that it’s it’s crispy but it’s juicy at the same time M I’m mangling it but [Music] yes all right I’ll see y’all in a bito dinner was delicious okay I had to keep my hand like this while I was eating all right so we’re going to go ahead and encapsulate the rest of the nails with clear so I can go ahead and take these forms off and I made sure to switch out my alcohol I mean I guess it don’t matter because it’s glitter I’m just using the same one but you know if
you want the clear to be as clear as it can be use clean alcohol as your slip solution so that’s what I did I’m just going to squeeze some out we don’t need that much I just want to make sure I have enough to cover the sides and to give me you know the structure that I need and then taking my dampened brush we’re just going to mold this into shape I’m going to overlap it as well so everything can connect and won’t snap off and just Pat Pat Pat and this is also where I just uh I probably will have to go in
with a second be but I just want to make sure everything is covered first and then we can worry about the structure and the shape and everything no I probably don’t I don’t know we’ll see okay it’s looking good I’m going see if I can use what on the nail to form the Apex cuz I really don’t want to put any more on here I think it’s I think we got enough product so I’m just going to make sure it’s where it needs to be all right I think I think we can do it all right everything is encapsulated so now we can take these forms off cuz
woo it is such a relief when they come off okay so because you know we did encapsulate we got glitter going on so I just want to take some alcohol and spread smooth the underside out because there is a little bit of uncured Patty gel gu the form wouldn’t able the light wasn’t able to get through so we’re just going to smooth that with the alcohol and then I’mma put my hand upside down inside the nail lamp to make sure everything is cured all right and then we are just going to wipe everything down with
alcohol and just go ahead and clean our tool oh I’mma go ahead and do the shaping and filing and then we’ll Circle back to the spiral let me get my nail dust collector cuz it’s going to be a lot all right so I have fouled shaped in bu now we’re going to circle back to this and just wipe it down cuz it’s sticky all right got to get that extra content all right so we got it uh wipe down and I’m going to uh let’s see if I got some tweezes around here all right we’re going to try to break this apart okay I’m just something like
this I know what it is it’s the gel that’s in between it’s hold on just got to make sure that all sides are released okay and then I can just slide it off like so ooh yeah this one is definitely smaller than the inspo all right so I thought I was going to have to put like a layer of clear Patty gel on top of this but I think it’s all right but what I am going to do is just clean up around the area here so we going to clean this up and this is just a cuticle bit a diamond bit that I’m using it’s so cool cuz like it is fully
cured but cuz it’s like in the spiral it has that spring effect always find that so fascinating but I’m just going to clean in between so it’s nice and crisp just trying to be very careful cuz I don’t want to break it although it does seem pretty pretty sturdy all right got it nice and filed so I’m just going to use my brush to kind of get all of the Dust out of it cute I was trying to see how I’mma connect this so it can be straight I was thinking of doing it like that but it kind of goes to this
side if I do it I don’t know I guess I could put it on something like this ooh that’ll be cute and to put it on to where it’s not going to lean to the opposite direction all right I’m going to use some of this glue to kind of tack it down think I probably want it this way yeah I’m going to do something like that you know have it hold and then we’re going to do a more permanent solution [Music] so so I’m just going to hold it like this hold that in place that looks crazy right it’s on there all right so then I’m going to
take some more of the clear Patty gel and just get some out like that and I’m just going to put some right here and we’re just going to make this look like one piece let’s see can get you smooth and just pet pet pet all right and then we here so next I’m going to go in with the top coat let’s do the simple nails first oh that is lovely oo M that looks like class oh man okay okay oh beautiful y’all I’m going need y’all to get some of this clear some of this Pink nude and some of this top coat okay cuz this
is amazing oh man okay it took into the top coat I mean I was already excited about this but oh my God the top coat it does it for me every time so I’m not sure if you guys are new here but if you are Patty gel is my brand of poly gel top coat and you know everything else you need to do your poly gel nails so as you can see look at that but yeah it’s available on my website long carepretty nails.com and go ahead and check it out we got bundle deals oh the nails barely fit into the nail lamp all right and then let’s go ahead
and paint our spiral well you know top coat it I’m going to do the outside and the inside I might have to do this in several coats but you know and then turn it around do the same thing making sure everything is covered like I said getting inside of the Spiral I wish I could just like dunk it into top coat but it’s all right I’m going continue doing this and if I have to I’ll get a nail art brush but it looks like it’s going on where I needed to go this looks really nice and crazy just like I like it all right and then we
can’t forget the cuticle and the nail bed I just wanted to do the spiral first so this wouldn’t run all right and we’re care this design is pretty special to me looks cute so far I got out my good crystals y’all my sasis all right I just needed somewhere to put this stuff to put the all of these crystals when I open open them up we going to do a little bling a little nice shiny bling yeah I just when I open these I’mma have like a bunch of just crystals everywhere so I at least want somewhere to put all this stuff cuz this
the good stuff I don’t I don’t want to lose this we going to put some Bing so we’re going to start here and just carefully put it [Music] on let’s see if I like that I want to push it up just a little bit I think I like it like a thought so let’s go ahead and Flash care this do the same well not the same but I want to outline the French I don’t want these to be like too overpowering uh because I’m going to put some really chunky crystals on the middle finger and we just gradually getting smaller as we get
to the side using the end of my crystal Katana to push them in place and I just like to run my detailed uh nail art brush just along the crystals making sure that they are encased in or just all sides uh with the bling gel oh okay okay all right for lash care okay I’m going to do this one before I move on all right so we got the crystals on all of the fingers and now we’re going to do the chunkies on the middle finger I’m just going to do a big old glob I have this one that I want to put [Music]
on and then don’t go nowhere and then and this one they’re pointy backs so I want them to be like I have to face it towards me y’all see it in a second all right so something like that all right so I’m going to do it like this uh and we’re just going to flash cure this so it could stop [Music] moving and then I want to put some more right here so we’re just going to tuck some more these okay that is about as chunky as I’m going to go I just want to clean up the extra bling gel I mean rhinestone glue just clean
that extra up all right we’re just going to cure it where it’s at look at you after dinner cozy and comfy you know it put this food up oh yeah please you see them potatoes Bo them Mash yes homemade from scratch no preservatives look at you oh yeah oh that smells so good when you took the top off you know I throws down all right I got to show you something that’s right you were doing some Nails in there mm okay okay I I I’ll wait thank you potatoes can wait yes all right so okay no not the left hand I I know already seen them yeah
