Soak the silk wrap nails for about five minutes inside the bowl. Remove your hand and file the nails, Again, soak the nails for another five minutes and do the filing again. Keep repeating the soaking and filing process till all the fake nails are removed completely. Gently buff off the residual glue with a buffer and clean your hands. As soon as the silk wrap is removed, use some warm and soapy water to wash your hands and wipe with a towel. Once your hands are dry, you have to apply a moisturizer on your fingertips, cuticle and surrounding nail area, as the nail polish remover may cause damage to your skin by dissolving the tissue fat.

By doing the process on your own, you will end up causing extensive damage to the beds of your nail. Remove the length of the nails, just like you are cutting your original finger nails short. Start the process with edges of the nail and slide the nippers gently under a loose spot near the edge. Continue the cutting process piece by piece, and stop cutting immediately when it hurts.
