I have heard the stories of my friends just eventually ripping theirs off and that it hurts really bad, one even said the salon did that. Shouldn't a salon have some sort of dissolving solution or am I just going to have to deal with the pain when the day comes I don't want them anymore??? Thanks

They have a solution for it, but it doesn't do much. After you soak your nails in it, they still clip them and pry them off. It'd be the same way if you did it yourself. You can even buy the "solution" at Sally's or other drug stores.
There's really no way around it. That's why acrylics are so addictive, you get another full set to cover your crap nails. They look so good though, so whatever, why not right?
Good luck!

A salon can do it with a dissolving solution, and it doesn't hurt at all. The nail just sort of disappears by itself. It usually doesn't cost that much to do, depending on the place. Otherwise I soak my nails in either acetone or hot water and baby oil. You're hands will feel funny afterwards, but it's better than ripping them off.

OK, here's what I have to do when it's time for mine to come off. Fill a small glass bowl with acetone nail polish remover.The bowl should be big enough for all ten fingers to go in, but not too big. Next go outside and get a handful of small rocks. Next rinse off the rocks with warm water, then place them in the bottom of the bowl in the acetone. Place your fingers in the acetone. Give them a few minutes to start dissolving. Next, start rubbing your acrylic nails against the rocks at the bottom of the bowl. This will take the nails off in roughly 30 minutes. Then you can file what's left, which shouldn't be much. No ripping or prying of the nails. The rocks do all the work. Ih ave to do this when it's time for a new set. Works every time, and it's painless, and won't damage the natural nail.

put your finger tips in nail polish remover for about 5-10 minutes. There should be a difference when taking them off then. That is what my nail place does.

soak them in nail polish remover. Make sure it is acitone. If you want to rip them off start in the middle. so they crack down the center, that way you can take them off in 2 complete sections. It isn't fun, but...yeah, it works.

Soak them in nail polish remover for about 5 or 10 minutes, (make sure it has isotol in it), and they will slide right off. GUARANTEED SATISFACTION !!!!!!!

soak your fingers in warm water for about 15 minutes and they should come right off.
