OMG😮😮 it's that simple!!!! Thanks for the video! I recently gotten my nails done for the 1st time at a nail salon & didn't want to go back to get it removed. I would've been upset with myself if I had paid for a simple process
Cant wait to try this! Got mine done for a wedding and they're so thick but they're lifting so my hair keeps getting stuck under them. So annoying 😓 but thanks for the tip!💕
I want to do mine at home because I've seen them get a little rough on clients at the salon. Maybe because they're in a hurry. I'll follow this gals directions to avoid damage.
You have a nice nail bed. I like to scrape off the top shiny layer, put on some remover to just remove part of the gel and file off the rest as remover is very drying
I tried this on a pedicure I got before quarantine - January 2020, I know, embarrassing, I was busy, no judgement please! ☺️ 🤣So maybe that’s why it took longer to get it all off. I suggest using cotton rounds and wrap them over the top of your toe nail because that is where I had the most trouble getting it all off. (I only had polish on the tops of my big toes if anyone was curious.) I also kept them wrapped for 20 minutes and it still took additional minutes of being wrapped, again perhaps because I’d had the polish on so long.
I wish I had watched this before I watched a video just scraping the gel off, as you said the top layer is off my nails & they are splitting & brittle & they are also a bit painful at the moment. Great stuff!
Go to Walmart over the counter they have Soak Off Professional gel nails and all types of nails a bottle of 160z for only $4 for best results just file of the nail polish then soak your fingers for 10mins. It should then peel right off repeat process if necessary 😉
YES. I was ready to tear them off, but a week later I want to be able to type without constant mistakes...I want to be able to open packages without help, lol!
@@TreeMa I have done this, but the gel nail polish wouldn't leave. I tried wrapping it again, but it didn't work. I even filed the nails before and after, but it still didn't work. Any advice?
Thank you so much. It really worked. Now I do not have to pay extra for the gel to be removed at the salon. It is expensive enough to get it polished let alone having to pay again to have it removed🥰
On amazon, they sell these little clips. Basically u put the soaked cotton on the nail and clip it on ur finger. They come in a pack of toes and fingers, obviously toes are bigger. They work great, there is also an electric file which helps. My Nan got them us to share as we do each other’s nails, she bought me a Lamp etc. She’s amazing! I defo recommend the products! Hope this helps!
I have tips with gel filling they were done by a beauty school student and ive broke 2 already so just want best way to get it off as there is nail glue and uv cured gel as well??
Gel polish is soak off with acetone, gel builder and poly gel is file off, you can leave the thinnest layer over your nail that will be able to soak off which would save you accidentally filing your natural nail😊
This gets hard to do when my nails grow out long. My nails are not paper thin but they're also not thick so it just gets harder to remove the gel from the the tips of my nails without breaking them.
Hi. I like the method of removing gel polish with the files. I have bio gel & forgot the specific file number you used. You used two different files I noticed?
I have done this, but the gel nail polish wouldn't leave. I tried wrapping it again, but it didn't work. I even filed the nails before and after, but it still didn't work. Any advice?
I put coconut or olive oil around my nails (fingers), cuticle and skin under my nails so my skin doesn't soak up the acetone and dry it out
Thanks for this tip! I was wondering what to do before getting the soak up into my skin
7eather this is what I was looking for!
Thanks so much for the tip
Great idea, thanks ;)
who’s here during quarantine💀
Sam Kennedy the struggle is real
🙋🏻♀️💅🏼😔
*raises hand
Mee :(((
am! I decided to just remove the gel polish rather than have it look old and raggedy, even if we are on quarantine!
OMG😮😮 it's that simple!!!! Thanks for the video! I recently gotten my nails done for the 1st time at a nail salon & didn't want to go back to get it removed. I would've been upset with myself if I had paid for a simple process
I gotcha

Thanks so much for this lovely tutorial. You saved my nails since I couldn't book a time at the saloon during the weekend. :)

This is really helpful!! I just removed my gel nails damage-free!! ❤️💅🏻
You're welcome! xx
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Life (and money) saver. THANK YOU SO MUCH for saving me $15-20!
Tried this method. Had to soak it for over an hour, some nails broke, some survived. Not overly disappointed with the results.
Did you have gel nail polish or gel dipped powder over your nails?
@@TreeMa I had gel nail polish over my nails.
You saved me a lot of money! That is very benevolent of you. Thanks 🙏🏽
I wish I had watched this before I watched a video just scraping the gel off, as you said the top layer is off my nails & they are splitting & brittle & they are also a bit painful at the moment. Great stuff!
Oh noooo 😩😩 I’m so sorry your nails are super brittle and painful.
Excellent, thanks so much. I had gel nails for the first time and they're almost 8th of an inch thick - my nails look deformed!
I loved your video. So much easier to remove fake nails. You're the best!
Thank you so much for these amazing tips!!!

Thank you so much for the information
anyone else got their nails done for the first time and losing it because you can't do a anything with them
YES. I was ready to tear them off, but a week later I want to be able to type without constant mistakes...I want to be able to open packages without help, lol!
I soaked them for 20 minutes and i ended up having to file most of it off... My nails aren't looking too hot right now
same.....
I think it’s because you have gel builder. Not just gel colorS I’m stuck home with gel builder now and you must file it off. Can’t be soaked 😟
@-- you can try lol but you’ll be there forever! My nail person uses and electric filer!
Same
This was super helpful! Thank you for sharing! :) I have gel acrylics and this looks like a really great way to remove them from home!
Worked like a charm
You are very beautiful Tree, and your tutorials are very helpful
thank you !! it worked perfectly 😁😁
thanks for such helpful tips
I am soooooo thankful for this video. 💞
Worked perfectly. Thank you
That’s super awesome I’m going to try this today wish me luck 🍀
How did your nails turn out?
@@TreeMa I have done this, but the gel nail polish wouldn't leave. I tried wrapping it again, but it didn't work. I even filed the nails before and after, but it still didn't work. Any advice?
Can I just soak them in a bowl of acetone?
Thank you so much. It really worked. Now I do not have to pay extra for the gel to be removed at the salon. It is expensive enough to get it polished let alone having to pay again to have it removed🥰
yay! I'm so happy to hear that this video was super helpful for you!
What lashes are you wearing? They're fab!
Sorry for the late reply hunn, but I’m wearing House of Lashes in “Iconic” for this video! ♥️
I love it, it actually works, thank you so much😄
Your nails are so pretty! Consider them click bait! 😍
LOL thank you!
Yes thank you

Can I use nail polish remover instead of acetone?
Lila Miller nail polish remover is either with or without acetone. You’ll want the one with acetone.
Meghan Anderson ok! Thank you
Is this also working for when you made your gel nails at the salon using UV light?
Exactly what I need! Thank you so much for making this amazing video. I hope this works. Thank you thank you thank you.
what can I use instead of Cuticle pusher?
Geez quarantine got me searching for myself. I may end up being a pro after this lol
Sacramento?! Ah! It’s so cool watching TH-camr’s so close to home 😅
Thank you. Exactly what I was looking for. You're great.
It worked thanks
Thanks because the struggle is real can it be any nail polish removal
I know my response is late, but acetone polish remover works best.
Thank you !!!!! It worked !
Thank you very much! Very simple and easy to follow.💕
Yay!! I’m so happy to hear that Cathy. 💗💗💗
How smart; thank you so much.
You're welcome!
Omg I live near Sacramento!!
just took mine off, thanks!
How do you keep your nails strong? Mine are always breaking super brittle
Does this work for LCN gel nails cured under UV light?
Very helpful! Thx
I just got my gel nails removed and she did the same thing my mom did it she did nails for 12 years
I have tips with gel filling they were done by a beauty school student and ive broke 2 already so just want best way to get it off as there is nail glue and uv cured gel as well??
Thank u for helping me so much!!
Happy to help!
does any gel come off like that? or is it a special.kind of acetone removable gel? you'd be angel if.you answered (:
different products come off slightly differently or take a little longer but the technique is still the same :) x
Cristina R &
That's what im wandering
You need Soak-off gel polish!
Gel polish is soak off with acetone, gel builder and poly gel is file off, you can leave the thinnest layer over your nail that will be able to soak off which would save you accidentally filing your natural nail😊
Thank you for this! ❤
Thanks !! Going to try it
Awesome ,Thanks for sharing doll.
This gets hard to do when my nails grow out long. My nails are not paper thin but they're also not thick so it just gets harder to remove the gel from the the tips of my nails without breaking them.
Does that also work for acrylc nailsv
Thank you so much! You are beautiful!
Thank you
lol I just peeled it right off. It worked pretty well but left some white residue and im wondering if I should soak them in smith etc
Yayyy!! Thank you SO much! You saved me during this quarantine, my nails were all starting to split/chip one by one lmao!
You're so welcome! I'm glad this video is helping since all nail salons are closed right now.
Thanks 💕
You're welcome 😊
I stopped with gel polish. It ruined my nails. I use normal polish now and my nails are stronger than ever.
Betty for me my nails are naturally frail and weak and I have been using gel and it avoids breakage and splits.
Thank you...great job😊😊😊
It is so much harder on long nails on the part that extends beyond your fingertips, espevially doing your own. Any tips for that? Thanks!
G C cut them down first then follow her steps! That’s what I did :)
Try dipping your nail tips in a little container with acetone
Thank you so much! This looked so easy!
Hi. I like the method of removing gel polish with the files. I have bio gel & forgot the specific file number you used. You used two different files I noticed?
I only used one nail file with a 180 grit number, any nail file will work, but the lower the number, the better it will work!
This will also remove my acrylic tips.
Your lashes are adorable and look great on you. Please tell us the details about them, whats the name, where you got them :) thank you
Which gel polish were you wearing?
Oh thank you so much dear
You're so welcome hunn!
Thanks, woke up in the middle of the night worried how to remove gel nail an ended up here. Easy.....
I’m so glad I was able to help. Thank you for watching 🙏🏽
thank you so much!
And gel polish is the one u cure with uv light right? I'm a total beginner so if anyone could answer it would be a big help! 😅
Joyce Möller yes ! (or LED light)
I have done this, but the gel nail polish wouldn't leave. I tried wrapping it again, but it didn't work. I even filed the nails before and after, but it still didn't work. Any advice?
mine never comes off properly and it’s so frustrating:( the base coat and even some of the color stays on no matter how much i soak my nails
Samee
You are honestly amazing thx :)
Hi can i use a nail file?
Does this work for uv gel? :)
??? Does it
No you would have to use the machine filer to take the uv gel off
For gel nail Polish yes for hard builder gel I don't know
Thank you very helpful
Can I use acetone free nail polish remover for gel nail polish?
dauntless bonita probably not
Thank you !
Can this method also be done with cornstarch or baby powder dipping?
Yes. Do you do it with regular or gel nail Polish?
Thx a million..will try it...🤗
My tech usually grinds mine and trims them with the grinder as well… my nails have changed shape the are very curved help
beautiful long nails
