What is the CORRECT method to remove full coverage false nails applied with nail adhesive?
I don't know that there is a correct way to remove them, but I'm sure if you use the wrap method, they will come off. I wouldn't soak them in a bowl full of acetone as this will be too drying on the nail plate and cuticle.

Thanks for your replies. But will a bowl of warm water remove the adhesive?

Wow mum and Geeg responding, I feel privileged (how good is Salon Geek allowing us to have direct help from the likes of them!). Ok so last question...I have absolutely no experience of, nor have I used these types of nails myself. Are they all specifically designed to be a one use product? I assume the answer to be yes due to the response on how to remove. I had this question from a clients daughter due to her seeing the Nazilla range in a store. She wanted to purchase them for re-use. When I hear of young girls and women re-using them I now assume this to be due to the fact they have removed them incorrectly. Ie picking and pulling them off in one?
It depends on how they attach to the natural nail. If they are sold with sticky patches to adhere them then they can probably be re-used. if they are sold with adhesive then if removed correctly they cannot be re-used.
No false stick on nails should ever be worn for more than 48 hours in my opinion. The number microbes that multiply beneath them is huge .. if you only knew.
FYI The worst nail damage I have ever seen in my life in the salon, has been the result of prolonged and continuous wearing of stick on nails. Black, pussy, fungal, rotten and 'almost' permanent-irreparable natural nail damage.
Beware .. no more than 48 hours at a time for stick ons. Enhanced nails are a much healthier option if the client wants nails.
