How do you take off your french manicure nails?

i have a french manicure and the fake tips wont come off how do i get them off easy?How do you take off your french manicure nails?
To purchase





Cotton strips or cotton balls


Foil


100% acetone (at walmart in the nail poilsh remover section, or sallys or somewhere like that)


Toenail clippers


Zebra File or 180 Grit black file


Small bowl of warm water





Set out an old newspaper or paper towel. Clip off as much of the free edge (the part that extends past your finger) of the false nail as you can. Take the file and file the nail surface lightly to take the shine off and allow the acetone to penetrate the nail easier.





Tear off 10 pieces of foil, one for each nail.





Take the cotton ball and soak it with acetone. Place it on top of the nail and then cover the nail and cotton ball with the foil. Once all nails are covered, place them in the warm water to speed up the process.





After 10-15 min, remove the foil and cotton balls. The cotton balls may stick to your nails a bit, so just pour some more acetone over it and ease it off. Using an old pen or pencap, scrape off the melted/dissolved acetone. Rinse and dry hands and file again. Repeat the process until all nails are off. Once all the acrylic is off, wash and dry hands again.





When the nails are all off, they will be a bit damaged. Use a program like nailtiques to help repair them. It comes with a daily polish, file and cuticle oil. A good link is below, but you can get it at walgreens too.How do you take off your french manicure nails?
Soak them in nail polish remover, they come off easily.
You can usually get them removed at the salon for under 10 dollars. I'd suggest going there. Fair warning though, your nails underneath are going to be completly ruined. You may want to reconsider removing them.
Few days ago someone I know got them done. We asked the person in the nail place how can one take them off. The guy there said dip you nails in acetone for 2 hours. Meaning if you have nail polish remover u need to leave you fingernails dip in them for 2 hours and they will come off. Or go to the store where u got them done and they will take them an hour to take them off. hope this helps.
Soak them in 100% acetone and they will wipe off.
put ur hands in freezing water if u put them on urself cuz they pop off but if professional they go to a nail salon
Go back to the location if possable where you got them %26amp; they should remove them for free. If not almost any nail place will do it for free if not a small fee......


Popping them off manually will tare up your natural nails %26amp; it will take a few months to recover from it, been there done that.
go back to where you got them done
Well i hope you didn't throw out the package they came in if you bought them and did it your self if you got it done at the salon you will have to back to the nail place and get them to remove it.
If It Is Polish Try Nail Polish Remover, If They Are Fake Nails, Go Back To Where Ever You Got It done.
Go back to the salon, they will do it 4 u
sock them in Luke worm water
