What is the best way to take off acrylic nails with minimal damage?
The best way is to soak them in pure acetone. Pour some into a glass bowl and soak for about 20 minutes. Use an orangewood stick to scrape off the loosened product. Soak and scrape until it’s all off. You will have to do one hand at a time. Keep the nails in the acetone when scraping as it will start to harden if you remove them. If your acrylics have a gel overlay then you will have to file the nail to break the gel seal. If you don’t, no amount of soaking will penetrate the gel. You can use a very fine buffer after all the product is off to smooth out your nails. Good luck!
