fake nails! I've had fake/acrylic nails for such a long time now (done by a salon). I'm just sick of going every few weeks, so my problem is.. is there any way I can get them off at home? I don't like it when the professionals take them off because it really hurts their way. Is there any products I can use or soak them in to get them off? I've heard soaking them in soapy, warm water helps but that takes forever! Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

nailpolish remover is suppose to work! ]
There's no reason it should hurt when you get them taken off at the salon. That should be painless. It would hurt more to take them off yourself than to take them off professionally.
You can try going to a different salon. Each one is different and probably has different methods.
If you really wanna go through with taking them off yourself, get 100% pure acetone. Put the acetone in a bowl, and put your nails in for about 10-15 minutes. They should pretty much peel off after that. If they're still a little hard, keep them in longer. ]
<small>First you wanna cut the nails as short as possible, as close to your actual finger nails.
Then you need to get a bowl and some nail polish removal (the kind with ACETONE in it). Pour that in the bowl, then get some Vasaline (petroleum jelly) and put it around you fingers where there's skin, try not to get it dirrectly on the nail or under it, or this won't work. This to prevent skin irritation from the chemicles.
After that soak your nails in the bowl for 15 to 20 minutes, then pull out and peel them off. They should come off fairly easy, if there's any struggle dip for another 10 minutes.
