If you wear false nails, then one of the biggest perils can come when it comes to actually taking off the nails, as this can damage the real nails if not done carefully.
The fake nails can also be hard to remove - good at most times, but annoying when you actually want them to come off! Here\'s what to do.
First off, soak in nail polish remover until they are loose and start to peel. Otherwise you will hurt nails - certainly never, ever use brute force.
The bottom line is that you must just soak and wait. There is no other way. Also ensure that between uses of fake nails you allow the real nails to breathe for at least a couple of weeks.
Ways on how to remove fake nails
Soak your fake nails in pure 100% acetone. It is extremely flammable so be very careful. When the fake nails get soft, gently peel off the tip. If the whole tip doesn\'t come off, soak it again until the tips get soft enough to peel completely off. This is how the salon does it. You may have to use a metal nail file to pry the tip and filler completely off your regular nail, but be careful that you don\'t damage your natural nail.
Another way for how to remove fake nails is to take a couple of cotton balls, aluminum foil and nail polish remover. Rap the Aluminum foil around each finger with the cotton ball on top of your nail but put a ton of nail polish remover on the cotton ball. Then just sit for a couple of hours. The nail polish will eat away at the acrylic.
Another way for how to remove fake nails is trimming your hangnails; take off the clear coat with nail remover so that it is just the acrylic nail. Cut the nail off at both corners (make a pointy nail), soak your nails in acetone, and then peel off. If you cut the hangnails first, it won’t hurt.
