Remove Dip Nails Fast - NO DRILL REQUIRED

I do this exact same method this is why I love dip powder with resin because it doesn't take all day to remove like gel, polygel and other nail enhancements the resin just literally melts right off. Tip: adding oil(I add jojoba oil) directly into the acetone helps prevent your nails and cuticles from drying out.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Yes! I just found this out recently and I am re-obsessed! I will do that tip for sure! It doesn't add to the removing time?

@@FavrielleBrooks No it does not additional to the removal time nor change the strength of the acetone.

Here because I sadly have to cut my natural long nails due to my dip lifting and cracking in a few spots. I’ve had this dip on for weeks and weeks. Stuck in quarantine and can’t see my nail tech any time soon. Oh well I can always get tips later and my nails can always grow back. Thank you for this!

[@TraceyLuke]

A few thoughts on this after trying it: Does it work: Yes Is it really that fast: Maybe The MAYBE is because it will depend on a number of factors. When I did this, I had powder dip on which consisted of: 1 clear layer of powder, 3 color layers of powder, and 1 layer of UV cured gel polish. That's a LOT to break down. It took 25 minutes on the first hand, without breaking the seal on the polish. 22 minutes on the second hand after breaking the seal of the polish. It was far easier and cleaner than using foil and cotton balls. It was not as fast as my technician doing this in the salon though. If you don't have many layers on, then it's going to be faster. If you've got a lot of lifting already, that will allow more space for the acetone to penetrate under the powder/gel. If you don't have a lot of lifting then breaking the seal is going to help tremendously. Here's what I learned and what I will do next time when I go to remove the gel polish I'm putting on now: 1) Hot water is key. Like THE MOST important factor. Heating the acetone is what makes this work faster. The water will cool down pretty quickly, so make it as hot as you can stand it. She says this in the video and I want to reiterate it. It will sting but just take your hand out briefly and go back in. I'm considering a kettle of water nearby next time to 'top it off' if I need to. 2) Break the seal if you've got a lot of layers like I did. If I'd kept better tabs on my water and broken the seal on my 5 layer (and 5 week old) powder dip, I think this would have been faster. But I'm still plenty happy to discover this and this I'll continue to use it.

I'm so happy it worked out!! Yeah it definitely fluctuates based on what you have on but it's still pretty quick!

[@bbpodcast5387]

Girl this changed my life!!!

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Yay!! Good I'm so happy it helped!

[@FraFra1990]

It tried this methot yesterday!!! It actually helped but I removed my sns first doing the way showed in the video for like 15 minutes( didn’t need the paper just acetone in the bag) and this removes a fair bit on top. After I still use foil and cotton with acetone for another 10 minutes and all came off!!!!! In the bag I put normal nail polish with acetone. Didn’t have enough pure acetone. So i kept it for the foil Good luck 🙃

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Happy it worked for the most part! Having the paper towel is nice because it helps remove the parts that have already dissolved so the acetone can work on the under layers. Pure acetone is in such high demand these days!! :)

[@tamiimbery5579]

I did this and I was shocked! It worked so well and so fast! Lifesaver! Thank you!

[@tj-8422]

I can't believe how quick the powder came off! Heat & acetone!! Thank you :)

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Yes! It's the magic combo! You are so welcome!

[@jeffbullard2231]

Careful with 100% acetone it is very flammable and evaporates completely at 130 degrees F. The vapor is highly flammable. The bag should help contain vapor but be careful that nobody smokes in the vicinity, cigarettes or otherwise.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Good tip! even breathing it in is not great so it's a really good idea to be careful with this!

[@msmisty0711]

You have beautiful nails naturally

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Thank you! I love them I just wish they weren't so thin!

[@giulidavila]

Wow!!!!! Total game changer on dip removal! I was about to give up on doing it at home because of the removal process until I tried this. Thank you for posting!

[@FavrielleBrooks]

I was the same! I was so ready to toss everything out until I found this :)

[@deebee4142]

Ok this is mind blowing! Doing this today, thank you!!! 😭

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Of course!! I hope it worked out for you!!

[@reelmustafa4447]

This works AMAZING! Just tried and it saved my grown out corona nails

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Yay! So happy it worked out! No more Corona nails!

[@wnica1]

SHOOK! Just did this; it works!!!! Thank you for posting!!!

[@FavrielleBrooks]

That's amazing!! Of course! Thank you for the love!!

[@ericka-denise]

I just tried this yesterday, and it's so much faster than w/out the hot water!!! Glad I came across this video! Thanks for the info.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Absolutely!! Yes!! The hot water is such a game changer!

[@XXxshaboomxXX]

i cant believe this works im so happy thanks for sharing!!!

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Of course! I love this technique! It's worked the best out of everything so far!

[@Chris-ye8sw]

So much better then the nail salon grinding them. Thank you for sharing.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Of course!! Yup, saves you a trip!

[@mikaylaelizabeth95]

DUDE WHAT THE HECK THIS ACTUALLY WORKS SO WELL!!!

[@mikaylaelizabeth95]

I actually filed the top layer and both hands took two minutes and some change each

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Dang!!!!! I have to try this!! This is one of those things that seem too good to be true but it works!

[@victoriaperry2468]

I had my very first dip mani 💅🏻 in July. I think the salon did too many dips and mine was SO thick. I really think I would have enjoyed it more if she had only done the dip 2 times. I’m glad I saw this removal technique. It makes me think I want to try it again at a different salon with only 2 dips. My first time was just TOO thick.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Yeah I only do them thicker if my nails are longer and need that extra strength if not I LOVE just 2 layers because it still feels pretty natural!

[@BeckyHayesBass]

The one implement is a cuticle clipper the big one you talk about is for your toenails. That’s why it’s so big. Thanks for the tip.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Thanks for the tip! I've seen some people use it if they have larger nail beds. Mine are pretty teeny tiny :)

[@f.agnewscott]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I bought a dip nail kit on prime day, and I decided to do a “practice nail” before I did them all (and thank god I did lol.) I obviously screwed up my practice nail 🥴 but thanks to you, all good now! 👍🏻

[@FavrielleBrooks]

lol! it's ok my nails were awful the first few times and those were whole sets lol Very smart to start with 1!

[@keilaniury8328]

I told people about this several weeks ago!!!

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Yes!! It is such a game changer!!

[@lindarosenthal6835]

I saw a similar version to this where they added coconut oil to the baggie also. Thanks so much.

[@Carrie875100]

This worked and the dryer sheet made my nails smells great 😊

[@amybbb73]

This is the best thing I have ever come across on KZbin. Saves so much time and so much wear and tear on my nails. Thank you!!

[@ninarenee7585]

Girl. You the real MVP.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Aww!! Thank you babe!!

[@pekaylynn]

Thanks for the tip . It took me 6 min each hand with 3 coats!!! Now I can get back to doing the nail dip

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Yes! No more wasting so much time on removing!

[@nicolalegate7736]

This actually works!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 I found just soaking them off in a bowl of acetone left gunky powder residue on your skin which would take a day or two to come off 😖 but not this way, so happy I came across this. I have a question, I recently brought the SNS SenShine Matt Top and wandered if anyone has used it also? For some reason when I apply it, it turns my whole nail white! Is anyone else having problems or can help me on how to stop this? I’ve searched and searched on the internet but there is nothing on KZbin or any website about how to apply it and you can normally find a video for everything! Please help, any advice would be much appreciated 😊

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Thank you love! I'm so happy it worked out! Hopefully someone can help you out with the sns!

[@ediethesalsafreak]

Needed this video now - quarantined, with no nail salons open!!! Thank you for the video.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

I'm so happy they're starting to open up now!! Of course :) I'm happy it helped out!

[@MamaDukes1979]

I'm so excited to try this!! I've seen others use this method, and one even used rice instead of water. Since I've seen the water method used more, I'm just going to try it this way. I've also seen different ladies use a scoop of coconut oil, (it's supposed to turn into liquid from the hot water) one also used olive oil. If you're on a fixed income, like many of us are, using the latter would be your best bet! 😀

[@desireea2030]

Hand down!!! The best how to video ever!!! I’m speechless! Thank you so much! You saved me so much time soaking these nails off

[@lisafeldmann9863]

So glad I found this. I'm about to remove 3 layers of 3 week old dip plus the layer system for gel polish (base, 2 layers of color, topcoat). I am hopeful this will make dip a win win nail method for me.

[@FavrielleBrooks]

Dang!! That was alot of layers! Let me know how it went!
