acrylic nails?

Question

Do acrylic nails mess up ur origanal nails when you take them off?

Answer 1

always preffer gel than acrylic powder.
gel is much mor innocent.
i have been working as nail technician for 4 years and also worked in another nail shop and saw customers there that had them on for 12 and 15 years! the problem is that now everybody learns how to do nails in a 5 day seminar witch is totally NOTHING! it took me 6 month intensive work to reach a point that i was able to understand completly what i should and should'nt do! how is the correct filling method etc.
2 things matter in order to have a good job done:
the first is that you find a very good technician that cares first about the natural nail and know her job well.
And second you need to check the products she is using!!! very important... i've seen horrible products that "melt" the the nail in a 3 months period, others are very toxic etc.
I ended up working with o.p.i
it's a little expensive for me as a technician but I feel so safe to use it almost everywhere. I've used o.p.i gels on a fungus nai and my client kept doing her fungus treatment and now has great nails. I took them off from the clients that had it 10 years and more and the condition of their nails was the same as before in just two days( the one had thin nails before and said they were the same again and the other one had very strong nails but wanted gel because she liked the shape. she admitted that she was amazed that her nails were in the same condition. she expected worse).... another thing you should know is that the only place the nail breathes is behind the so called moon... at the back of your nails. that part shouldn't be filled with gel. so yes the nails are still breathing!!! when you use good products and know your job there's nothing to worry about.... when you take them off after a long period of time they just need a couple of days and they are back to normal. IF they don't file your own nails off as well :)

Answer 2

I relatively have had the two ones. I liked gels greater because of the fact they did no longer spoiled my nails a lot, and in my opinion they have been a lil bit greater mushy. yet acrylic ones are greater suitable and that they final for longer... however the detrimental fringe of acrylic nails are that in the time of time the acrylic isn't finding so nicely .. Oh, and gel nails detrimental is that the gel is commencing as much as peel after a time .. If i had to decide for back then i might decide for gel nails .. :)

Answer 3

Yes they mess up your nails when you put them on but when you take them off it just exposes the wea have to use acetone to take them offk and brittle part of your nails because they drill your nails down a layer or two and you but the longer you keep them on does not make them worse it does nothing to your nails cuz the damage is already done the only this is how many times you get them you should wait untl your nails grow back out and get strong again before you get them done again

Answer 4

I recently had acrylic nails on and as I took them off I faced sensitivness in my nails and they were all dented they have really ruinend my nails:( I suggest to make them stronger again is to just buy the strength nail care set which gives the nails a lot more strengh:)

Answer 5

Yes they leave a chip mark in Ur nail but that should come off after u use regular nail polish I know I've used it before.

Answer 6

Yes for a short period of time. When they are taken off, layers of nail bed are taken off with them making them very thin. It is important to keep them very short while the nail bed grows back out and repairs itself.

Answer 7

well i get my nails done every 2 weeks and yes any nail that are being filed and the face one put on top will mess up with your original nail bc if the air doesnt get in to your original nails the nail start to raught but what i do is i once in a wile not get them done and take the facke ones out and get a breather atleast for 2 weeks and get the nails done againe

Answer 8

When you take off the acrylic, your real nails are actually thin, brittle and prone to breakage.

Answer 9

Answer 10

yes they are ruining your nails when you have them on; the longer you keep them on the worse your nails get... but taking them off will hurt your nails but it will help in the long run
