I had yo go to a nail salon cause my middle finger was hurting and the acrylic broke my nail in the middle so I stopped trying to do it myself they took them off it was only $10 to get them off

What they did was use a machine to cut them short then got some tweezers looking this and started removing from the back once they were able to get an open area they put a fake nail under the acrylic and above my real nail and they slid the nail across my whole finger and it came off

If you need them off imedietly, I truly don't think there is a quick non harmful way. I would just file and smooth the tips and top and paint them over quickly.

Get dental floss, wherever the nails are a little pulled up start getting it in there and pull gently. It fast and painless:) that's how I take them off.

I used dental floss to! But I'd soak em in nail polish remover or just water first so it's easier.

I just took mine off today!! I just cut them/ply them off with nail clippers... it can hurt but not really, and it's a little time consuming.. good luck!
