Acrylic nails?

do they hurt to get them removed? how long do they usually last? thanks.Acrylic nails?
First of all, nail services should never hurt or cause you any discomfort in any way. Sure, if you go to an unskilled tech, or one who simply doesn't care - and they force them off with a nail tip or a metal file, or if they rip them off with nippers - then yes, it will most definitely hurt and it will damage your natural nails a lot as well. The one and only safe and pain-free way to remove acrylic nails is to soak them off in pure acetone. You can do this yourself, or you can have it done at a good salon. If the tech wants to force them off, just walk out the door and don't go back there. This is NOT the way to remove acrylic nails. A good tech would NEVER do this to any of their clients.


As for how long they will last: I'm not sure why so many people think that they only last several weeks or a month or whatever, but with regular maintenance such as fills, and rebalancing (For pink %26amp; whites), then they will last much longer than that. As a rule of thumb, a good tech will only replace them with a new full set when it begins to take longer to do a fill than it would take to do a full set. This normally happens once or twice a year. There are lots of unskilled discount salon techs who do not know how to do a fill, and those same techs will want to put a new full set on you only because they can't do anything else but full sets. If that happens, you are most definitely going to the wrong tech/salon. Find a tech with lots of experience, and a high degree of skill and you will avoid this problem.


Edit: Um no, acrylic nails should NOT fall off by themselves, LOL! If they do, then you have a really bad tech doing your nails!Acrylic nails?
It's not pleasant getting them removed, I wouldn't say it's painful just not painless. They can last as long as you want, you just have to get them filled every two weeks. That can get expensive and time consuming. In my opinion acrylic nails aren't ';in'; anymore. The natural look is getting much more popular, and it's cheaper!
umm YES they hurt to get removed..........i would def. know. they last a long time...a month +





they take maintenance though...you need to get a fill every like 2 weeks or they'll start growing ON your nail bed and it'll look stupid.
It doesn't hurt to get them removed - what happens is the salon will have you soak your nails in a solution that softens them, and then they can be pulled of easily without ripping your nails.





You need to have the nails refilled every 2-3 weeks as your nails grow, and that's nothing like having the nails removed. They just buff the acrylic down and shorten them, and then put new acrylic over the nails to fill in the regrowth. If you do that regularly, you won't need to have the nails removed until you're ready to have the nails off.
No they dont hurt when u get them removed thats if u go to a professional and they last for about a good month if you treat them good.
no its odsent hurt and you could just let them grow out then they will fall off by them selfs...um mine last 3 weeks b4 i need a fill but 4 to 5 weeks for them to fall off :)
could last two or more weeks but by then youll need a refill then theyll remain the month...


they shouldnt hurt when you take them off if you go get them removed and if youve had them on two days or more...and also, all you have to do is get a lil lotion on your hnad put some finger nail polish around and on the nail and they should be painless when taking off(if doing it at home)
