pure acetone. i take small squares of aluminum foil, place under each finger, soak cotton ball with acetone, place on nail enhancement, wrap with foil so it doesn't leak. let soak for 10-15 minutes or longer, depends on how much time you have.
it's the best way for me, i don't use a finger bowl that i'd have to clean later, just throw away foil and cotton when done.

It depends whether I am just soaking off one during a treatment or doing a full set soak off.
If only one or two need to be soaked off during a treatment then I use the foil method so I can carry on working on the others at the same time ...
If a full set soak off, I like to use the bowl 'bain marie' method so I can check and remove a bit at a time and I also think it is quicker to do it this way too.

Hi, I'm wondering why you would only soak off one or two acrylic nails, and not all of them.

Due to them being beyond repair. For instance, a couple of bad breakages or if the acrylic has 'popped' in zone 2, or real bad lifting on a couple of nails (which i very much doubt geeg suffers with
) Why would you want to soak off the whole set if only 2 were damaged? Its a waste of product, a waste of time, and a waste of clients money. Which no doubt they would not be happy with if they had to pay out for a full soak off and new set everytime they damaged a nail or two.
