I got fake gel nails. And now i am trying to get them off.?

But I don't want to go to the salon to get them off. So is there any way that I can get them off without ripping them offI got fake gel nails. And now i am trying to get them off.?
Yes there is a way to do it. If you have had them on for any length of time you need to be prepared because your natural nail will be very weak and you will need to put a hardener on it. I use to wear those and finally decided it was just too much of a hassle so I stopped and it took me at least 6 months to get my nails back to where they were not like paper .....








Things You鈥檒l Need:





* Plastic garbage bag


* Acetone polish remover


* Petroleum jelly


* Nail buffer


* Nail clippers


* Glass bowl





Step1


Find a good work area where you can sit down and be comfortable. A kitchen table works perfectly for this. Be sure to cover the surface of your table with a plastic garbage bags and a thick layer of newspaper to soak up spills and prevent damage to your table鈥檚 surface.


Step2


Get all your supplies ready at hand. You don鈥檛 want to be hunting for them mid nail removal. Have them all spread out in front of you on the table.


Step3


Using a pair of nail clippers, cut the acrylic nails down as short as possible to make the removal easier.


Step4


Fill a glass bowl with nail polish remover (the type with acetone in it). This will be used to soak your nails in and dissolve the nail glue which attached your acrylic nails to your natural ones.


Step5


Before dunking your nails apply a coating of petroleum jelly to the skin surrounding your nails. This will help prevent the skin from drying out while soaking in the polish remover. Just be sure you don鈥檛 get any on the nail or it will block the polish remover from loosening the glue.


Step6


Dip your fingers into the bowl of nail polish remover and continue to soak them for 15-20 minutes.


Step7


Remove your hands and try to gently peel the acrylic nails off. If you are met with resistance and any or all of the acrylic nails do not easily peel off, submerge your fingers in the polish remover again and soak for another five minutes. Never force a nail to come off if it鈥檚 not ready.


Step8


After re-soaking you should be able to remove any stubborn acrylic nails and will now be left with only your natural nails.


Step9


Thoroughly was your hands in order to remove any polish remover residue and the petroleum jelly.


Step10


If any of the nail glue remains on your nails, simply buff this off with a nail buffer. Be gentle and use a light touch to avoid damaging your natural nails.


Step11


Apply a moisturizing hand cream to your hands and massage in well. This will help replace any lost moisture from the acetone polish remover.





Hope this is helpful ~~~


Good Luck~~~I got fake gel nails. And now i am trying to get them off.?
get a cotton pad- round or square, %26amp; break in half. then put nail varnish remover on them. put one half on each of the nail, try wrap it round a lil- u properly wont get it all the way round if its half the size. then put kitchen foil/tin foil round it- wrap kinda tight. leave for about 30mins, then unwrap the foil %26amp; they shud peel off like a sticker, if not give it another 10mins. it worked when i had my nails done properly - french manicure
What kind of nails are they?


Acrylic/Gel?


Just glued on?


Wrap?





If it's acrylic/gel, then file all the gel off, and get nail varnish remover and rub it on your nails. Then soak your hands in warm water for 10 mins, and then they should just pull off x
run them under hot water and start at the side and try to dig under the nail and pull them off. also if that doesnt work try dipping your fingers in nail polish remover ! it worked for me.
You have to soak them in warm acetone (not hot) for about 30 minute and push the product off your nails, then buff them clean after most of it is removed.
you should probably go and get them taken off at the salon, but i acctually popped mine off and and filled them off and paintedx them and they look like new
try using nail polish remover have a big bowl of warm water then in side of that use a smaller bowl with polish remover with a towel over the smaller bowl wit which ur hands r in
Soak them in really hot water for a long time like 20 minutes, and then ease them off your nails
