Removing gems for infill?

[Steffanie]

I've had a few clients recently wanting their accent nail covered in gems (on top of acrylic set) and are needing infills this week.. How do I go about removing them please?
I put a layer of gel top coat on, crystals and cured them then sealed with gel top coat too so the little buggers wouldn't budge so I have a feeling I'm going to have to remove the whole nail

I nip them off with a pair of old nippers

Old nippers or they actually file off quite easily.

Make sure you ask your client to turn her face away though! They ping off walls and the ceiling [emoji85]

Old nippers are definitely the way forward for this x

I've had one go up my nose, in my eye! Little buggers they are!

I've sealed them really well though so I don't think they will file off easy, I'll give both a go though
