While most people love press-on nails, they also worry when it comes time to remove them. They can’t help but ask themselves difficult questions like “will nail glue ruin my nails?”
One thing is for sure, artificial nails are produced after exhaustive research, development and testing. This ensures that you get the best performance out of them. This post will share with you how to apply press on nails and how to remove them pressure claws.
Application of press on the nails
Here are The Nailest’s tips for professional nail application:
- Prepare the nail – Use us press on nail prep kit to file or cut your natural nails before adding the pressers. Push your cuticles back to reveal the base of the nail and buff the bed with a buffer. Next, clean the bed with an alcohol-based solution to remove any oils or dust.
- Insert the nail – apply it glue to your nail bed, then add the press, press lightly to make sure it covers the entire bed.
- Avoid water – be sure to wait 2-3 hours for the glue to dry completely before getting your hands wet. Water can break down the glue and cause the press to fall off sooner than you would like.
If you want to protect your press even more, avoid contact with water as much as possible. Opt for hand sanitizer over hand washing when you can and use gloves when washing dishes.
Nail press removal
If you decide to remove the press on nails, start by soaking your nails in warm, soapy water. For adhesive strips, soak the nails for about 5 minutes, and between 10 and 15 minutes if you used liquid glue.
Once you see that the glue is a little loose, you can use a wooden stick to gently remove them from the skin side. But, if you find it difficult to press the press into the nails, soak them again in warm soapy water for a few extra minutes.
When removing nail glue residue from your natural nails, use a pink filler. It is essential to apply cuticle oil to moisturize your hands and nails after the procedure.
DO NOT soak in acetone as it may damage the nail pressure and may not be reused.
