Does chlorine weaken nail glue?

So basically, I went the cheap way and bought fake nails from Walmart, I go swimming a lot, and I was wondering if the chlorine will weaken the nail glue, and make my nails fall off. It says on the box that Acetone takes it out, but I was just wondering.





Thanks.Does chlorine weaken nail glue?
You should be fine, but be sure you don't have any open spaces under the nails or you could get fungus. Not fun.

Anyone a Nail Tech out there?? Help .....Does a cold room make the adhesion of nail glue longer?

They say it sets glues and polish better, and I find it does as long as the glue and polish are not old.

    DON'T SCRAPE THE TOP WITH ANYTHING METAL !! Use a sharp wooden stick , not a razor blade or a putty knife. Then clean the rest up with acetone. Good luck.How do you remove nail glue from a laminate countertop?

    A belt sander will do the job!!!!!
    Acetone and a paint scraper. make sure to let the acetone soak on the glue for a bit then scrape carefully. :))

    Need suggestions on how to get the glue under a lable on a plastic jar off. Nail polish remover didn't work.

    I already soaked it in hot water %26amp; got the paper off and now it is sticky. The nail polish remover made it worse.Need suggestions on how to get the glue under a lable on a plastic jar off. Nail polish remover didn't work.
    Spray it with some WD-40 spray, let is soak then scrape off. Re-wash it also.:)Need suggestions on how to get the glue under a lable on a plastic jar off. Nail polish remover didn't work.
    Try either rubbing alcohol OR any oil- cooking oil or wd-40.
    Hi. Use the product ';Goofoff';. It is wonderful and a little goes along way.
    GOO GONE best product ever. it will take care of labels sticky ones and another 100 other things around the house, garage office or where ever.
    A hair dryer works well. It softens the glue whereby you can scrape it off pretty easy,then warm soapy water should do the trick.
    keep it in hot soapy water even longer to get rid of the sticky...you can also try rubbing alcohol...either way you will probably have to scrub off some of the glue...i actually used a butter knife down the side the last time i needed to do that. good luck to you!
    There are orange- and citrus-based glue, grease, and guck removers/cleaners on the market which are very handy. I don't know what the names would be in the U.S.; there's one made by Saratoga over here called ';Out!'; (or the latest version: ';Out 2';). It's sold in hardware stores.

    After removing the glue with the cleaner, I wash the jar in warm, soapy water to remove any residues.

    I'm black and have braids with nail glue in them and now they are hard to come off any suggestions HELP@!?

    I hate this stylist shes not picking up her phone right now but basically she put glue on my braids and its close to my real hair i started to cut the back off and my hair starting to appear really short. I heard acetone helps but is there any other method to take the glue out of your hair??I'm black and have braids with nail glue in them and now they are hard to come off any suggestions HELP@!?
    if a licensed stylist used nail glue on your hair, the first thing you should do is report her to the state board and have her license revoked.





    second, do nothing. make an appointment with another salon and stylist and have a professional decide what is best. for the health of your hair, you may have to have your hair cut. i am not sure, but i know acetone is bad for caucasian hair, so i would bet it is even worse for ethnic hair. don't mess with it - just get a professional to fix it. it might cost a bit, but it will be fixed the right way.





    seriously - the stylist who did that to you should have her license taken away. that's just wrong. sue her for all it costs you to fix the problem. Judge Joe Brown would love this case.I'm black and have braids with nail glue in them and now they are hard to come off any suggestions HELP@!?
    I was thinking warmed oil applied to the glued areas, let it set to soften the glue then gently (hopefully) scrape it off your scalp. Olive oil is excellent. You could even cover your head once applied with a cap and add extra heat with a hair dryer.





    Another idea, what if you called another hair stylist and maybe they would have ideas or could even help you themselves. You might even find a stylist you liked better that way.





    You're wise not putting acetone on your hair and scalp, you would most likely cause worse damage.





    Good Luck!
    I hope you have someone to help take them out. All you can do is cut just above the glue, then spray with braid release spray.
    how in the world did you get nail glue in your hair???
    baby oil works for me when i have to reomove my weave tracks when they are glued in.
