I’m a previous post, wrote about What Are Press-On Toenails? and are they safe, find out
and below in this post, we explore on How Do You Apply Press-On Toenails and also how do you remove Press-On Toenails.
First you should note that applying a Press-on toenails is just was Press-on nails and for a start, you should get your feet clean.
According to Yankee;
“Shape your toenails, push back your cuticles, and clean your nails with acetone or isopropyl alcohol to ensure the natural nails are clear from oils and residue,”
Another important thing to ensure is that your toenails are completely dry before application, this is to prevent unwanted moisture from getting trapped under the press-on toenails.
Not start off by peeling of the backing film that covers the adhesive if it has one whereas others use sticky tabs.
“For sticky tabs, apply the tab to each toenail and remove the film from the top of the sticky tab to reveal the adhesive,”
“For glue on toenails, apply a small amount of nail glue to the underside of each press-on toenail.”
– Yankee said
Now to Finish, gently align the press-on nail with each cuticle, pressing down firmly, and trimming or shaping if needed and it’s done, enjoy your beautiful toenail.
To the second question, How Do You Remove Press-On Toenails? Like we earlier meantioned, one should note that Press-on toenails are same as Press-on nails and this makes it also hard to removed but no worries as we are here.
Please note that, it is recommended to water your Press-on toenails for about 2 weeks and after that removed them although others make remove them earlier or later depending on the technique and product.
Although removing the Press-on toenails are bit tedious, it’s not difficult and for a sticky tab press-on toenails and yankee tes us that, one should begin by applying a generous amount of cuticle oil at the base of each nail and now gently use a cuticle stick to loosen and release the press-on.
Also, note that the process for glued-on press-ons is a bit more complex as Yankee advises us that;
“For glue-on toenails, trim the length as short as possible, then file the top surface of the press-on,”
“Apply cuticle oil to each nail and cuticle. Next, place a small piece of cotton, saturated in acetone, on top of each nail, then wrap each individual nail in foil.”
This should soak for 10 to 15 minutes before you take off any softened or loose product with a manicure stick.
“Reapply foil and acetone-soaked cotton and repeat as needed until the press-on is fully removed,”
– Yankee says.
