Acrylic nails?

i had my acrylic extentions on for abt 3 months n now i had them removed... i noticed that my nails become very thin n they break easily wht should i do ?Acrylic nails?
I hear this all the time from my new clients from other salons.


It does not matter if it is gel or acrylic - the prep is the same.


It is worse if they are going to a quick-shop - usually they are damaged at these places.


It could be a few things.





Your nail tech,even if she is a good one, might be thinning or filing the nail too much when applying fresh product. The nail only needs to be SLIGHTLY prepped. Electric files should not be used on the natural nail surface - not even '; just in the back';





Another thing is something that happens to everyone with


any type of covering on the nail plate is that you have moisture build up - and with the moisture the nail plate starts to soften- when you take the nail off it is more likely to be breakable.





How are your enhancements being removed ? If they are being pulled or bitten off - then layers of your nail are going with it and of course are going to be breaking. Only have nails removed by a professional by soaking is acetone and if necessary, filing off the excess being careful not to file the natural nail. Take care of your nails with or without enhancements on and please know that some of these quick shops say that they are putting gels on people and all they are doing is acrylics with a gel top coat - this is NOT gel at all and not even close to being the same thing.


Good Luck !

Entity Advantage # 58923Acrylic nails?
at the salon they probably shaved off a layer (since thats how it suspposed to be done) but dont worry it should grow back just give it some time.
got to the store and buy this special nail polish. It makes your nails harder!
Im a guy and i get acrylic fingernails. What i do is get them done once a month. I wear my nails kindof long for a guy 1/2'' to 5/8'' long from the ends of my fingers.
thier is this stuff called hard nail put them over the acrylic nail and it rlly works!!!
samething happened to me. just leave the nails off for a while and let your natural nails breathe. when you go get your nails done for now on just get manicures, no more acrylic!
Me, I would never leave acrylic nails on for three months, you need to let you nails breath. So for a while don't use any nail polish, and after a couple of days use nail strengthener, it worked for me.
Your never suppose to leave acrylic nails for 3 months, just 3 weeks.... That's the reason why your names are so weak... Just let it take sometime and they will get back to normal....





Hopefully they will good luck=]
it happens when you have them on for a while.


just keep the nails off for about a month..or till that line in your nail from your tips grow out.

your nails are probobley really thin since they just took them off i heard that the top few layors of your nail come off when the acrylic nails do. wait a few weeks or about a month and they should be thicker aagain.
You'll have to wait for them to grow. Becuase the nail is so this it can be prone to a bacterial infection. If you apply tea tree oil to your nails it will help keep away infection and keep your nail beds healthy.
never EVER get fake nails again.
The reason why this happened, is because they damage your nails- so probably the best thing to do is get a manicure, yeah- it's not always cheap for the quality, but it will help your nails! I always say, cost doesn't matter if it's for your health. Don't go buy more nail polish to fix it, they are gimmicks and usually don't work, just ask a nail professional (?) what you should do, and don't use those kinds of fake nails anymore! ;)
