A soak off acrylic service removes existing acrylic enhancements safely and neatly. The product is softened and lifted in a controlled way to help protect your natural nail, leaving you with a clean, comfortable base that is ready for your next step.
More information
What this service includes
Soak off acrylic is designed to remove enhancements without excessive filing or force. Your appointment typically covers:
- Careful reduction of bulk before soaking to minimise stress on the natural nail
- Soaking to soften acrylic so it can be gently lifted away
- Clean-up around the cuticle and sidewalls for a tidy finish
- Light shaping and smoothing of the natural nail surface
- A conditioning finish to leave nails feeling comfortable and looked after
When a soak off acrylic is the right choice
Choose this service if your acrylics are grown out, lifting, or you want a clean removal before a new set. It is also ideal if you are taking a break from enhancements or switching to gel or a natural nail look.
What happens during the appointment
Your nails are assessed first so the removal method suits the condition of your enhancements and natural nails. Bulk is reduced, then the acrylic is softened during soaking and removed gradually, rather than pulled. The service ends with tidy-up, shaping, and a conditioning finish.
Aftercare and what to do next
After removal, nails can feel drier than usual for a short time. Use cuticle oil daily and keep nails at a practical length to reduce splitting. If you plan to reapply enhancements, it is best done once the natural nail has been cleaned and prepped properly.
