At Samsara you have the option to come in and we will remove your shellac for $10 , or you can do it at home. All you will need is
- 100% Acetone nail polish remover ( most drug stores should carry it)
- Cotton Balls
- Aluminum Foil
- Tear the aluminum foil into little squares big enough to cover the top of your finger down to your first knuckle.
- Saturate a cotton ball with the acetone and stick it on top of the shellac, then wrap the foil around the tip of your finger and squeeze to secure it.
- Continue doing this to all fingers, let it sit for 10-15 min.
- Squeeze and twist the foil as you remove, this will pull most of the Shellac off.
- Use an orange wood stick to gently scrape any remaining shellac off the nail.
- Wash your hands and moisturize
After two weeks the Shellac may start to loosen and peel away from your nails but try not to peel it off, doing so could damage and weaken your natural nail.
If you have any other questions about Shellac feel free to call or email Samsara.
