As many experts assure, the extension can not be harmful, and the condition of natural nails largely depends on how the extended nails were removed correctly. Ideally, a qualified person should remove them. But since our women love to do everything themselves, they do nail removal themselves.

But if it is not there, then acetone is also suitable, the main thing is that its composition be the simplest, without any obscure additives. First you need to trim the free edge of the nail, but not under the root itself, otherwise you can damage the skin under the nail plate and even cause infection. Now it remains to remove the rest of the acrylic. To do this, moisten a cotton swab in acetone and wipe it well with acrylic on the nail. After that, quickly wrap the nail in foil so that the acetone does not have time to evaporate. We do such work with all other nails.
