Can anyone give me some tips for doing gel nails, and if so what brands, colors l, etc... are your favorites?

Hi @silasXoXo ! As a beginner, I would just buy a cheap set from Amazon (it can be as cheap as $20 for like 20 polishes including the UV lamp). You would want a set with base gel, top coat, and your color, they should be applied in that order. You can purchase dehydrator and primer but before you grow your collection, try and see if you like gel (not everyone does). You will need to have some buffing tools and cuticle cleaner/shaper to make your gel last long and prevent lifting. The application is pretty much same as a regular manicure but you cure your gels in between vs drying. I would recommend beetles, it's the most popular Amazon and they last the longest imo. There are numerous videos online to get you started! Do reach out if you have specific questions 🥰
