Acrylic Nail Broke Off Real Nail

Then wrap in aluminum foil.

Acrylic nail broke off real nail. When it stops being so sore you can remove the false nail but I would have the nail technician do it. What can i do. Because the struggle is always real.

If you decide you need to remove the nail DO NOT pry it off. The acetone will partially dissolve the plastic. It looked as good as new.

The most important element is to make sure the nail is completely dry. Glove your free hand and soak a cotton swab with the acetone. Then file the top coat off.

The best thing you can do is soak off on Monday and assess what is there - is the nail saveable with another overlay or will you have to cut off the free edge and redo with either a tip or sculpt. Soaking them off would be the best option here. When the nail gets injured the whole nail wont get ripped off easily.

Remember to support the nail by holding it at the back while clipping. Squeeze the surplus again into the bowl and maintain the swab on high of the acrylic for a number of minutes. File down the surface of the plastic nail and soak it in acetone.

Acrylics can be used to lengthen the nails so your nails can still match with the rest. A similar thing happened to me on my little finger. The best way is to soak it in acetone that is kept warm by an extra hot water bowl.
