go to your local drug store, cvs rite aid, etc. and get fake nail remover. Kiss is a good brand, i have used it before. it actually melts the nails off with out having to tear them off. it stinks, but works well. Good luck!

Acetone works best. Soak each nail for 5 minutes. Also you could use a nail tip to pry the fake nails off, but that does hurt sometimes.

I have done that before years ago. I ended up soaking my nails in acetone nail polish remover for a long time and they just sorta melted off. Then I filed off any of the remaining pieces. This will dry your fingers out though or any part of your hand that hits the acetone. So you will need to moisturize afterwards. Hope this helps!!! Good luck!

In order to take them off. You need to soak all your finger nails in a bowl of soapy warm water for 5 min or more. It helps loosen up the nail and soften the glue you had on! I have done it before. it lessen the pain also.

That's the most annoying part, taking them off! But an easy way for taking them off without damaging them as much is soaking them in acitone for a while, and you can use a flat ended stick like tool made for lifting the nails up which will make them easier to come off! I hope this works for you!

Soak them in pure acetone. You can a big bottle at Sally's for abot $3. My davice in the future is that when putting them on yourself, go short. . .if you ever decide to get them done professionally, make sure you go back and have the nail yech remove them. Also, make sure to wash and mositurize your nails and cuticles good after you remove them. Good luck

Have you tried soaking them in HOT water?
If that doesn't work, I've heard of ppl clipping the fake nails or cutting them with scissors. . .

rough them up with abrasive nail file. then soak them in regular nail polish remover (better yet, pure acetone, if you can get it) take the nail file and gently start "buffing" repeat soaking as necessary. no reason to abuse yourself and your nails. i have mine done also but am getting tired of the hassle.

try soaking them in nail polish remover, it sometimes loosens the glue

There is a product made that removes fake nails. It works. You can buy it @ Wal-Mart. It's cheap. :)
