How to remove gel nail with Acton free.

In this article,  I'm  gonna to share how to  remove gel polish with Acton free.

Whether you're doing  at home or, in the salon.

Following step by step.

1.Nail file
2.Acton free
3.Foil paper
4.Cuticle pusher
6.Nail buffer
5.Nail brush

So now we're  going to  using a Cuccio nail file. 180 to 240 grit because we want to be able to get off some of the layers of gel polish before we put our wraps on we're also going to use a buffer a cuticle pusher and acetone. 

 The most basic way you gonna get into how you really do it when you're doing gel polish removal. most basic method first before we get into  Nail filing techniques,

 Don't need to use a lot of pressure and you just going through and removing as much topcoat and maybe the first coat of color if I can depending on the gel polish that you're using if you're using a very thin gel polish or more of a hybrid you're not going to need to file as much as what you doing here and it also depends on how many coats of color and how thick your layers were when you applied it.

  Just go through all the nails and break that seal on the gel nail. you can also file the free edge if you want to on shorter nails you well find that that's less of an issue but if you do have some longer nail clients where you've done a great job of capping the free edge.

 you can also lightly file the free edge to break that seal and it will help release the product from the free edge of the nail.

So now we are going to take one of the lint, with the  foil paper the lint is already attached to the  foil paper and  acetone with completely wet the lint, without having it dripping and then you're going to make sure that the free edge  is going to be exposed to that lint.

 As well as the nail. so you can watch while you bend that over and then you do the shorter side and then the longer side around  just like a little burrito and give it a nice squeeze to tighten.

 you don't want the wraps to be too tight where they're just comfortable, or it's causing discomfort and if your clients are very sensitive to the removal process you can also add cuticle oil, to their fingers before you put wraps on and it'll help protect their skin from the drying effects of acetone.

 So again make sure the whole lint, is wet without it being soaking wet. Make sure the free edge is exposed to the acetone free. as well as the full surface of the nail wrap the short side and then wrap the long side and give it. a little squeeze the neater you are with your rap application.

 The better the acetone will be able to work one of the biggest issues during a removal is the evaporation of the acetone free, before we're able to get the gel off. so we want to make sure that the wraps are nice and

snug without being uncomfortable and that way the acetone is going to be able to work right on the gel.

 so you just go. through all the nails in a methodical process to get all of them wrapped. see exactly how long it takes to do the full removal process. and you also wanted to do in.

 A real time so that you can see what happens when the gel comes Off. so we had these wraps on for about ten minutes you usually check every  five to eight minutes. depending on the client because you want to see what's happening you don't want them to have the acetone on longer than needed. so what you do is  take your cuticle pusher and I just gently scrape on the top of the gel.

 To see if it's ready to come off. this looks like it needs more time than you can going to file it just a little bit to break that seal just filing on the product and not on the natural nail. so that you can expose more of that base coat and the acetone is going to be able to penetrate deeper into the gel.

 Again this may be needed for certain gel polishes and not others and also it depends on how thick your

layers are. when you apply you filed just on the color to get rid of some that product and then you can put the wraps back on. 

you go through and  check all the fingers one at a time some fingers,  it comes off easier than others

some fingers are more stubborn and you do like to try and scrape off some of the product that has softened very gently without causing damage to the natural meal. so just let your cuticle pusher. glide over the surface of the product and don't jab into the nail plate any parts that are stubborn.

 you can remove a little bit more with your nail file and then put the wraps back on just make sure when you put the wrap back on you actually put this padded side on the surface of the nail and set up on the bottom and give it a nice little squeeze. so again going through all of the nails. very  gently putting pressure on the

Gel.

In a parallel direction so that your not jabbing into the natural nail and You're going to show you up close you can see the difference between natural nail and gel .so can you see this little white line kind of this flaky whiteness on the nail that's the base coat and the rest of the nail plate.

It just looks perfectly matte there's no lines or anything on it that's the nail plate right there. so this is all product in the center  to be very cautious about where a file and pushing on the nail plate especially, because you don't want to pull and tug on the layers of the nail plate. so just very gently going back and forth with you're cuticle pusher and anything that's willing to come off. you  can remove if you though too hard you can end up.

 Making a mark or lifting up layers of the natural nail. the same process is what we use for hands and feet so whether their toes or fingers this is exactly.

 what you would do to remove soak off gel polish on this bit easier to remove there's a little stubborn piece right here on the right hand side probably where the lint, wasn't perfectly touching the nail but everywhere else the gel is coming off.

Very  easily and so you just want to use your tool to gently glide over the surface of the nail and keep an eye on that so that your not pulling or tugging the product off of the nail plate. now we are going  to make sure the pad is on the right side and just give it a little, push on that.

 One spot you can see the gel polish actually pop up sometimes after you take the wraps off and that's a good sign that the gel is ready to come off. So again gliding over the products taking off any of the little flakes that

are ready to come off but anything that is still well attached to the nail plate .

Circular or whatever type of pattern and the rest of it's going to be nail plate it also helps, to look at it from the side because then you can kind of see the products sitting on top of the nail like right here on the corner but you really want to maintain the integrity of the nail plate. so just be very careful about scraping pulling and tugging because we don't want to damage our natural nails.

underneath our product that's what the nail plate should look like after removal,  it shouldn't have any layers peeled up or any white spots. so again the fingers that you smoothed out with top coat and extra layers of color.

The first layers of color be very careful not to jab your client in the eponymium we don't want to cause any damage to the matrix while we're trying to remove gel polish. you can file a little bit more just to expose more of that base coat and then you can put the wrap on, for just a teeny bit more time but this is exactly what happens.

 sometimes if some fingers are more stubborn than others some nails you'll even feel the gel polish pop off and release underneath  the wraps but sometimes the gel needs. a little bit more time and that's very important for us.

To do that so we don't cause damage, so now you can see the base coat exposed you can put the wrap and this gel should come off with just a couple more minutes so now you can proceed with kind of getting rid of any of the residue of the gel you can do a full-on manicure. reshape all the nails and prep them again and now that these nails have had gel polish on them.

Now we're going to need to buff these nails again necessarily we just need to make sure they're clean and dry and that there's no flakes that are gonna prevent the gel from adhering to the nail plate. so keep that in mind you don't need to be filing.

the surface of the nail every single time. the natural oils are no longer there on the surface the natural Nail. has been under gel polish and if there are a little bit of areas where you have some gel residue. You can usually just buff it lightly, because it's not going to cause problems as long as it's not lifting off of the nail plate. so with that buff you can see there's a little bit of gel base coat residue you can see kind of that white almost milky look that is actually base coat right there and that is natural nail can you guys, see the difference

 between the base coat and the natural nail and just with a very  light push. very careful getting
the gel polish off of the nail plate.

 it's not going to do anything if we put gel polish back on and just with a light buff you can smooth everything out and reapply. You  just go through extremely lightly with a buffer and this helps to get off any residue

 and any flakes before you reapply. prep work or refiling you can just cleanse the nails that they're

going to be perfect for be application, and you don't need to prep the surface of the nail plate again that's it for now guys and remember let the acetone do the works.

 so what we'll do is we'll put shiny top coat and keep them as natural-looking as possible.
