So I last night I took my acrylic nails off

I used acetone but now there are lots of layers off and I put lots of clear over it and it still peels and I have no idea what to do

any ideas

I would give it a break by trimming it, soaking it in warm water, massaging in cuticle oil and heavy hand cream, then applying a coat of nail strengthener to prevent any further pealing. Don't buff it because that would take even more layers off.

That is the only thing I absolutely hate about Acrylic nails; the after math! I took mine of last week, and honestly, there's really nothing we can do besides cutting the nails, file them & buy a strengthener to apply to them. You will see, in a week or two they will be a lot better ☺️

Try filing down whatever is left :)

You have to buff off all that on top then apply cuticle oil and as mentioned put that nail strengthnrr and let it grow out.
