Trim the acrylic nails as short as possible with nail clippers
Gently file the top layer of the acrylic to thin it out
Soak your nails in warm, soapy water for 20 to 30 minutes
Lift the softened edges slowly with a cuticle stick
Repeat soaking and gentle lifting until the acrylic loosens
Use dental floss carefully under the lifted edge to help separate the acrylic
Apply cuticle oil or coconut oil around the nail to help reduce dryness
Buff away remaining residue with a nail file or buffer
Wash your hands and moisturize your nails and cuticles afterward
Stop if you feel pain or see damage to your natural nails
