Debunking 5 Common Myths About Acrylic Nails

Acrylic nails have been around for decades, but misconceptions persist. Myth one: acrylics ruin your natural nails. Truth: when applied and removed properly by a trained technician, acrylics do not damage your nails.

Myth two: acrylics look fake. Truth: modern acrylic techniques create incredibly natural-looking nails. Myth three: you cannot get acrylics wet.

Truth: acrylics are water-resistant, though prolonged soaking should be avoided. Myth four: acrylics are painful. Truth: application should be completely painless — if it hurts, something is wrong.
