If you soak it in acetone fingernail polish that will take them right off and your ';real'; nails will be just fine.How can you take off Acrylic nails yourself and not damage your real nails? Thanks!?
You can remove acrylic nails two different ways. You can purchase a professional acrylic nail removal kit at your local drug store, or you can invest a dollar or two in a large bottle of nail polish remover. Make sure you buy a kind that has acetone in it, not one of the gentler nail polish removers on the market these days.
Lay out several pages of newspaper on your kitchen table to prevent spills. Keep several paper towels close by as well to wipe off nail polish, dry your hands off and put the acrylic nails on as they come off.
Clip your nails as short as possible to make the process easier. Next apply some petroleum jelly to your fingers (except the nails) to prevent your skin from drying out completely during the soaking.
Pour the entire bottle of nail polish remover in a bowl. Warm it up in the microwave to make the process faster and easier. Soak your fingernails for about 15 to 20 minutes. The acrylic nails should start to come apart from your natural nail at this point. Gently peel them back a little and soak longer if they still seem pretty attached. Repeat this process until you can easily peel the entire acrylic nail off. Don't force it, or you risk ripping your own nail out of the nail bed, which is very painful.
Wash your hands several times when you're done to get all the acetone off. Use a good hand moisturizer. The acetone dries your skin out. Your nails will look very rough from the acrylic coming off. Use a nail buffer to smooth them out. They'll start looking better after a few days.
Go to Wal-Mart and get a bottle of Pure Acetone ($1.88). Pour in a bowl (preferably glass) and just let the acrylic melt off.
in most cases, whatever the product, those always ruin your nails. good luck.
soaking it in acetone is the only way to remove it. to not soak it for too long, take a black emery board (the coasrsest one) and file it down as best as possible. once you have it super thin but have not hit your own nails, soak it in acetone. once you have removed it, use witch craft nail hardener. nailtec is great but really expensive and witch craft works just as well.
Soak your nails in acetone finger nail polish remover, after 10 minutes or so your nails will become softer and will basically fall right off, completely painless! good luck:)
Acetoner. However, while they put on the acrylic nails and file your real nails down, that's what really causes the damage. So acetoner wont damage them anymore than they already are. It may dry out your skin a little though. Just moisturize and wear some nail polish because they will be sensitive to hots and colds. Your nails will grow back healthy over time.
