How to soak off gel nails
Once your clients’ gel nails have run their course, you’ll have to remove them before applying a new set. It’s important to properly remove gel nails as peeling them off could cause damage to the natural nail.
To remove gel nails, you should follow these steps:
- Buff the nails and remove the top layer of gel
- Apply Gel Remover to a cotton pad and pop on nail, wrap this in tin foil or a nail wrap for 10 minutes
- Test a nail to see if the gel comes away
- If it’s still hard, soak for an extra two minutes
- Gently remove the gel by scraping it away with a Gel Remover Tool
- Shape the nails
- Finish with a hand cream
