Video Transcript

"Now the, I just want to demonstrate the removal of the artificial acrylic nails with the artificial tips. You are going to need acetone. Acetone is a product that you can buy and you can buy it at any beauty supply store. This is what removes it off your nails, should you decide that you don’t want them anymore. So what you need to do, make sure that you do not put this in a plastic container. You have to have a glass container or the acetone will eat through the plastic container. What you are going to do, I am going to demonstrate on my nails. You put the acetone inside the glass bowl. I am going to go ahead and put my nails in it and then what you want to do is you want to take a towel and you are going to want to cover your nails. So what I am going to do, I am just going to get my nails and I am going to cover them over the top of the bowl just to demonstrate, because this helps to keep all of the fumes out and plus it’s just a little bit easier on you because it is very strong. And just make sure when ever you do use this product you need to be very cautious. Do keep this away from children because it is very very toxic. And you are just want to, you’re probably going to want to put, hold your nails in here probably for a good fifteen to twenty minutes. Periodically you are going to take them out and your going to use your file to buff that product off to get it off your nails. It’s going to take a little while so make sure that you are patient, but this is just if you want to remove your nails. And what I am going to do, and I am going to dry my nails off. And then after you have completed and your nails are off just go ahead and buff them. You can polish them and you probably what your going to want to do is you will want to shape your free edge of your nails and just trim them all up and smooth them all down. And that is the proper procedure for soaking off the acrylic nails. "
