I' had these for a while now can I remove them at home, the glue is still hard and i don't think the olive oil in dish soap would work

  1. Yes, but only if you’re okay with tearing your nail beds to shreds and willing to risk your fingertips.

  2. You want to use nail polish remover that says “100% Acetone” on the bottle and a ceramic or metal bowl. File the top layer of the false nails, pour your remover in the bowl, let ‘em soak for like 30-60 min

    Olive oil and dish soap is never how you remove acrylic! That is only meant for press on nail glue and it’s still likely damaging. You need a solvent (acetone) to safely dissolve products off the nail plate. I would recommend getting a professional to remove them but if that isn’t an option check out [this video](https://youtu.be/WrpxQhTaBas?si=KhqLgWFJVfraEYhQ) for steps on safe removal. You should use a mask and dust collector of some kind, and be prepared that it’s a long process.

    Yes you can. Get you a 100 grit file (actually just buy a big pack) and file file file and then soak in acetone until everything comes off.
