Verve Times - Latest News around the World

Once upon a time, my friend sheepishly admitted to me that she removes her acrylic nails by biting and pulling them off. Very promptly, I exploded into a ball of light, the Earth cracked beneath our feet, and centuries of ghosts proceeded to haunt her forever more. This is a true story. Because the number-one rule before getting your nails done for the first time? Knowing how to remove acrylic nails the correct way.

And surprise, surprise: Taking off your acrylic nails shouldn’t be done at home. The safest way to remove your acrylic nails is by going to a salon and seeing a trained nail tech who can remove them without damaging your own nails. “Your natural nails grow out regardless of how long your acrylics last, and you’ll start to see growth at your cuticle beds after two weeks,” Rita de Alencar Pinto, founder of Vanity Projects nail salon in NYC, has told Cosmo.

Which means unless you’re ready to get your acrylics filled again asap, you should be heading back to the salon to get them professional removed—or, I hate to say it, try to remove them yourself at home. Is this the smartest and safest way? Nope! Is it what any professional would recommend? Nope! But I also understand that our time is limited, our lives are busy, and the world is on fire, and sometimes, you just need to do some sh*t yourself.

Lucky for you, I parsed through the questionable world of nail advice to find the best tutorials on how to remove your acrylic nails without the damage—or, well, without as much damage as you’d probably inflict on your own. Keep reading and watching, and maaaaybe consider the easier-to-remove gel nails for your next mani?

Get in a car and drive thyself to a nail salon. Sry, just had to remind you one last time of the best—and honestly, probably fastest—solution. But if you’re at home? The easiest way to remove acrylic nails fast is to cover them with a cotton ball soaked in pure acetone, wrap your fingers in tin foil, and let them sit for 30 minutes. The acetone will help break down the acrylics, so you can buff or scrape off the rest with an orange stick or cuticle pusher.

Confused? I gotchu. Stock up on the essentials above, then keep scrolling for more in-depth tutorials.

Ah, yes, the classic removal technique for the average DIYer. As a ~hot~ tip (literally), try warming up your acetone before starting, which will help it work faster and more effectively on your nails. (Note: Acetone is incredibly flammable, so don’t microwave it—just run the bottle under warm water for a few minutes.)
