1 /5 Taylor Aldape: This was a PAINFUL experience. I came in to get my dip removed today. the nail tech (who seemed to be the manager or owner because he was instructing the other workers and customers where to go) sat me down and began digging a pair of nail clippers between the dip and my nail bed. he was clipping away at the dip. Once he clipped as much as he could around the nail, he slid a nail tip in between my nail and the dip to separate the two. It tore the top layer of my nail off. It was painful, especially on my pinky fingers. I immediately asked him to āplease soak the dip offā instead of removing it this way. He responded āthis is faster and acetone dries out your cuticles.ā He continued to chip away at the dip and use the fake nail tip to separate the dip from my nail bed. my nails are left very thin and look horrible. I canāt believe i paid $10 for this service. I wouldāve taken the dry cuticles over this. If i wanted to take the dip off this way, i couldāve easily done it myself⦠and for FREE.
