Here is my best method for dip removal. After buffing off top coatl: 1) rub Vaseline around nails 2) soak small piece of cotton with acetone and place on each nail 3) wrap tightly with foil 4) place hands in EMPTY ziploc bag 5) place hand in bag into bowl of hot water and soak for 5 minutes. This reduces amount of acetone needed, is super fast and isn't so harsh on hands and nails.

I have press-ons for 4 days now. I am doing an experiment. Normally if a nail fell off, I would re-stick it. But now, I just let it do whatever it wants. I am now left with 5 press-ons on, and the nails that last the longest are the pinky, and the ring finger (one thumb has a press-on too) . I am seeing how long they will last. I think about 3-4 more days

@aprildegele15102 жыл бұрын
I love an efile. It's so fast. But I'd only recommend to use if you're familiar with using a dremmel. It's very easy to damage your cuticle if you're not careful, especially when using it with your non-dominant hand. Just be super careful if it's your fist time and don't go too deep or you can damage your nail as well. Having just done my second dip mani, I really like the idea of the acetone in a baggie and hot water. I tried the clips and it took 30 minutes to get most of it off. Once the remainder of the powder re-solidifies, you'll have to repeat. May be better if I remove most with an efile (just be sure you still have color left. If not, you've gone too far). I'm going to try the efile and clip method next. Seems like it would be great and should take half the time it does if you just remove the shiny layer. If that doesn't work, I'm going to try the baggie and hot water.

Question for y'all. I got my nails done by a new tech at my salon. When I tried to soak them off the dip stayed hard as a rock and took 45+ minutes to soak off. I still had large chunks that wouldn't soak off. I ended up filing it down because I couldn't take the acetone anymore. I tried the cotton and foil method first. Then the bowl method with warm water underneath. Am I doing something wrong?
