i used to be a nail tech, i went in for acrylic nail removal. The desk was covered in equipment, bottles & dust. Had medium length acrylics & she used the drill to file the ends off instead of cutting it which hurt. after the gel was filed off, she put all the nail dust onto the floor? then after having the foils on for a bit she tried to ease a wooden cuticle pusher under the acrylic, i assume to tear it off the nail? if i wanted to rip my nails off, i would have done it at home. it took 1hr+
