How do you take off fake nails from the salon without going back in? Every time I do this, I always rip like half my nail off.

Soak cotton balls in acetone. place the acetone soaked cotton balls on the nail. wrap each finger in foil. leave for an hour. take off.

You can get a business card and wiggle it under the fake nail, it should help loosen it but as Bryanna said, leave it soaking in acetone is better.

Yes do like Bryanna sais but make sure you use a nail file to break the seal of the whole of the surface of the nail, otherwise the acetone won't be able to work through the acrylic.
