Soak off gel, how to?

[marie111]

I have a client who wants minx on her toes but she has gel on and she says its soak off, how do I do that, the tin foil method? Also since as I have never used soak off Gel, how long does it take to soak off?

I would use the tin foil method and it will probably only take amount 10 mins. When you unwrap, the gel is likely to be in one piece looking a bit like a piece of shrivelled rubber. If is hasn't lifted off, re-wrap and leave for another few minutes.

Thankyou, thought it didn't take as long as acrylic.

the time taken will depend on how thick the application is.
remember to file them over first to increase the porousity of the gel prior to soaking.
