How do I treat my nails after I removed acrylic nails?

I just removed my acrylic nails and my nails are dry, ripped, and in layers...It ripped some of my natural nails off leaving lines of uneven nail surface... Please help!!!How do I treat my nails after I removed acrylic nails?
As a manicurist I would suggest you go to Sally's beauty supply and buying a white buffer and buff your nail beds, gently, until the ripped parts are nearly off.





Also at Sally's, buy some Hoofers cuticle cream. I think this is what its called - I swear by it. It is a little white plastic jar that has a little horse running on it. Rub it into your cuticles and nails every time you get out of the shower, at least once a day. It will make them thicker and conditioned. This is my FAVORITE natural nail product.





I would also buy some clear nail strengthening polish and using it on your nails until they grow out to make them stronger.





Keep using the hoofers stuff. Its great.How do I treat my nails after I removed acrylic nails?
Do not use a nail clipper. Only use a nail file to shape and shorten them. Protect your nails with thicker moisturizers to protect them from exposure to water which dries them out %26amp; makes them brittle.





Try Revlon's disposable files made for weak nails. File in one direction only. Start on one side and file towards the middle, then go to the other side and file towards the middle of your nail. Smooth the nail into a squoval that mirrors you cuticle or the shape of the white part of your nail bed. Avoid filing down the sides of the nail.





Finish the edges of the nail with a hindo stone, a smooth ceramic/stone nail file or the finest grit nail file you can find. You want to make the edges really smooth.





Also, avoid using metal nail files. I recommend using disposable nail files and changing them frequently. The fresher the grit, the less the drag which leads to tearing and peeling.





I also use a cuticle balm or nail oil to moisturize my nails and protect them from water since I wash my hands frequently.


(ex. Solar Oil, OPI Avoplex)





Vit E oil, jojoba oil, Aquaphor Healing Ointment, Vaseline or plain Chapstick will work too.





Avoid products w/ formaldehyde or toluene, they are very hard on nails.





Some women swear by taking pre-natal vitamins.
That is the only part about acrylics that i don't like. You should go get a manicure. It will help out a lot. Then just let your nails breath for a while, let them grow out a little before you get acrylics again and get manicures frequently. They will go back to normal. I just recently took of my acrylics and my nails were so messed up. I have been getting manicures and nursing my nails back to health lol.
use nail polish remover to remove excess glue. then, you should soak your fingers in 1/2 c water mixed with 1/2 a lemon (juice and zest) . it will really moisten your nails and if done frequently, even them out.
same thing happened to me...i couldnt do anything about it really....they just grew out fine after some time...they were ok in like 2 months i guess...just let them grow and keep trimming them so that the new ones can grow
