How to Safely Remove Press-On Nails
Removing press-on nails can be tricky if not done correctly, and using the wrong methods could damage your natural nails. Whether you're using gel tabs or nail glue, here’s a safe guide to remove your press-on nails without causing harm to your nails.
1. Gel Tabs Removal
Gel tabs are a popular and easy-to-use adhesive for press-on nails. To remove them safely, follow these steps:
-
Step 1: Soak your nails in warm water for 10–15 minutes. This helps loosen the adhesive and softens the gel tabs.
-
Step 2: Gently lift the press-on nails from the edges. Be careful not to pull too hard, as this could damage your natural nails.
2. Solid Nail Glue Removal
If you're using a stronger adhesive like WowNailArt Solid Nail Glue, the process is a little different. Here’s how to remove nails with this type of glue:
-
Step 1: Apply WowNailArt remover around the edges of your press-on nails. This solution will break down the adhesive, making it easier to remove the nails.
-
Step 2: Once the remover has had time to work, use a cuticle stick to gently lift the press-on nails. Be gentle and avoid using excessive force.
Important Reminder:
⚠️ Never force off your press-on nails. This can cause damage to your natural nails, leading to weakening or even injury. Patience is key!
By following these methods, you can safely remove your press-on nails and keep your natural nails healthy and strong.
