I'm assuming that you're talking about a toenail or a fingernail here? Not a construction nail that you managed to get stuck into you?
Whenever I've had work done on my toenails or fingernails, including having them pulled to allow for a new one to grow in it's place, the doctor has used an injection of novacaine, just like a dentist uses for working on your teeth. Works great!What substance do doctors use for numbing if you get a nail removed?
A common drug is called xylocaine. It is most commonly used

What's the best way to remove Nail extensions at home.?
I've had my nails done for a week and now i want to remove them myself.What's the best way to remove Nail extensions at home.?

ACETONE in a glass bowl to soak off. Cover with a towel whilst soaking to minimise vapour.
use garden shears
there is a product called get em off which you can buy from boots and other stores its about 拢3 it takes off nail varnish and false nails I have used it and its good. You just put some in a bowl and soak your nails for about 5 minutes and the nails just melt off, its a very good nail varnish remover too.
soak in acatone. You can buy it at any beauty supply store.
Happy Soaking!
You can soak them in hot water that usually loosens them up and they come off easier. Or you can try soaking them in acetone for the same effect.
BITE EM BITE EM BITE EM!!!!!
Bottle Opener???? Risk of broken fingers though...
If they are acrylic nails, you can soak them in an ACETONE nail polish remover. That is what they will do at a nail salon, but be patient, because it will take awhile. I have done this in the past, and it kind of makes me react the same way nails on a chalk board do. I really dislike the feeling, but if you are desperate, I would try that.
Also, if you want, you can go to Target or Walmart or wherever and find a manicure kit with an electric tool that has different heads (like a buffer, sander, polisher, etc). IF I were you, I would try to sand down my fake nails so that they are not very long, and let them get loose and fall off by themselves. This way, you will suffere the least amount of damage to your nail. Unfortunately, your nails will still be paper thin and break very easily for about six months or so. I would recommend buying a clear nail polish that ';hardens'; nails to give your nails a little extra protection (Try Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails)
Its REALLY hard, they sell this thing that you can soak them in. and after a few weeks you can soak them in nail polish remover, then pull them off, they will be week then.
DO NOT force them to come off NOW, or else you'll ruin your nails. or if they R just way too long, you can clip/cut them shorter.
Hope I helped
-good luck

How do I safely remove my gel nails, without having to spend money at the nail salon?
They grow out too fast, so I decided to remove them.How do I safely remove my gel nails, without having to spend money at the nail salon?
If you have real UV gel nails, then acetone will NOT remove it. Uv gels are non-porous, and therefore the acetone - or any other liquid, cannot readily penetrate the surface of the nail. Thus, they do not dissolve in acetone or any other solvent. Way to tell if you had real UV gels applied or not: Simple. If the tech used ANY liquid and powder on your nails, you have acrylic nails and yes, acetone will dissolve that. But if you had UV gels applied, and each individual layer was cured under a UV lamp for about 2 minutes, then you do have UB gel nails. UV nail gel looks exactly as the name implies - a gel. It is not a powder. Here is a pic of some UV nail gels made by a very reputable professional nail product company:
http://www.cnd.com/Home/homelink-consume鈥?/a>
That is exactly what UV nail gels look like. If you had this applied to your nails - and NO liquid and powder, then the nails must be filed off by an experienced and highly skilled nail tech. It's not easy to file these off, so that is why I emphasize the fact that you must go to someone who has lots of experience in the removal of UV gel nails. An unskilled tech will ruin your nails so fast it isn't funny. Seriously, you need to have them filed off by someone really good at this. Whatever you do, make sure the tech does NOT pry them off, or force them off in any way at all. This WILL cause serious damage to your natural nails and it will hurt a LOT too.
Good luck!How do I safely remove my gel nails, without having to spend money at the nail salon?
I had UV gel nails and decided to have my nail tech remove them. She pried them off. It hurt like hades! I had previously tried acetone and it does not work on real UV gel nails. Do not believe anyone who tells you it does!
Soak them in acetone (you can buy that at the grocery store...its like a strong nail polish remover) for 15-30 minutes..but before you put them in coat your nails in vaseline so the acetone doesn't dry out or mess up your skin in any way....acetone is some strong stuff! Good luck! :]
yaah there isnt exaclty a safe way but soaking them in pure acetone. not nail polish remover just pure acetone. soak em for about 10-20 min. and just wipe em off. or just go get your nails redone or get a filll~! :]

Try using nail polish remover. Use a cue tip and rub it on gently.

you know in a little tiny place ..try Alcohol..and see if that works...then use a soapy and well squeezed cloth..and wipe it down..but try alittle area first....tell me if it works or not..

WD-40 on Q-tip let it soak a few mins then lift off w/fingernail
Goofoff should work, it does anything!
nail polish remover, mr clean and you should be good to go girl
i dunno
Goo Gone and alcohol mixed
You could use some nail polish remover on a Q-Tip, but be really careful because it may take off the finish. If it is only in one spot go for it, but if it is all over, I would maybe try something like adhisive remover and see if it would work. Also, you could always go into a local hardware store and see if they have any ';wonder'; products that you could try. Good luck :)
yeah, googone, but be careful how u use it.
take something and chip it off or if its stuck inside the keys try flipping the laptop upside down and bang the back of it so maybe the glue will pop out and the key will pop up
Depending on where it is, nail polish remover will work. Put some on a cotton ball and soak the spot with glue until it comes off. Just make sure it is no where near or on the screen or speakers!
Also, be sure the laptop is unplugged and turned off while doing this. Sounds a bit extreme but its better to be safe than sorry.
tisk tisk tisk.... nail polish remover, but it depends where the nail glue is.

How can i remove my acrylic nails w/out going into nail salon?
Im just tired of paying money for fake nails and fill ins etc. and now to get them removed they want more money!!
i tried soaking them in nail polish remover,,,didnt work.How can i remove my acrylic nails w/out going into nail salon?
you can go to any harware store and buy straight up acetone. it's stronger than nail polish remover. soak them in that and they'll come off.How can i remove my acrylic nails w/out going into nail salon?
soak them in acetone or vinegar for about 30 minutes. use tweezers and just ease them off gently.
if you don't want to risk your hand, you can simply wait for them to fall off
nail polish remover? of course it didn't work.
Use acetone. and you have to let them soak for a while. 20~30 minutes then take tweezers and gently pull them off.
Acetone will take them off. I pour some in a bowl off marbles and play with them tell they come off or a bag of cotton balls.
You can get acetone in Wal-Mart or anything like Ace.
You need Pure Acetone.

How do I remove a nail from a tree?
In my yard there is a tree with a nail in in that I would really like to remove. I tried pulling at it with the forked end of the hammer, but it won't budge. Any tips? (It's driven in at an angle...in case that makes a difference.)How do I remove a nail from a tree?
Unless the nail is made of copper (most likely it's not), just drive it in the rest of the way. The tree will grow around it.
Damaging the bark while pulling it out is more harmful to the tree than just letting it be.How do I remove a nail from a tree?
Cut it off short, drive in rest was the best answer, but remember to cover the little area with a bit is vaseline, after your done. This will help keep bugs and other nasties out while that part of the tree heals over. By the time the vaseline wears off, the tree will have ';scabbed over';
Cut the tree down right above or right below where the nail is. You may need to go back after the initial cut and cut again -- the goal is to expose the part of nail that's in the tree. Once you've cut through the trunk, it should be pretty easy now to pry the nail out.
How is the tree,leaves still grow on it?Pull it out as far as you can,using a pry bar and a piece of 2x4 to protect bark.If you can get it all the way out,this is best.Fill hole with a little glue and a stick from the tree and jam it in the hole,cut off excess.
Get a wrecking bar (crow bar) that has a much longer end than a hammer. Before you pull the nail, be sure to put a block of wood or something else that is hard, against the tree bark against which you can pull. That way, you will avoid damage to the bark.
put a long piece of pipe over the hammer handle,and a piece of wood or any thing about a inch or inch and a half for a fulcrum (pivot point) under the hammer head this will increase you pulling power by 50% you may wanna try a little penetrating oil on it as well.
Dig out the bark enough to grab it with a pair of Vice Grips
lock the Grips onto the nail at it's tightest possible setting and pry the nail out on the rounded edge of the vice grips.
The tree will love you for helping it out.
A wrecking bar is good but before you try to pull the nail out first give it a few taps in to break any rust bond that may have formed.
cut it off at the tree and drive the rest in.

How do u remove nail varnish on nails without using a nail varnish remover?
ok...this sounds like a weird solution but i've tried it and it works....you'll need the same polish that you used before and toilet paper or tissues. Ok, so repaint your nails and before it dries, wipe it off with the toilet paper or tissues. Both coats will come off.How do u remove nail varnish on nails without using a nail varnish remover?
Some of the answers in this thread are ridiculous. What is wrong with using nail polish remover? Anything else is terrible damaging to the nails and using more nail varnish to take it off is just more expensive and smells just as bad!
How do u remove nail varnish on nails without using a nail varnish remover?
Paint a fresh coat (any color- but clear works best) on your nail, let sit for 5-10 seconds and then wipe your nail off with a wet wash cloth (cotton balls works too, and are less messy- but take a little more effort than a wash cloth)
After doing this to each nail, wash and rinse your hands (paying close attention to your nails) in hot soapy water.
Use a nail file (electronic preferably) on the tops of your nails to scrape off any left over polish.
You don't. You must remove polish remover.
Sharp knife - lots of scraping, great care.
use petrol
Pick it off or add a fresh coat then wipe off the wet paint immediately. Not as good as proper remover but ok in an emergency. Oh and I discovered (accidentally) this summer that DEET insect repellant removes nail polish.
Answer
One nail at a time, use a clear nail polish or a light/sheer color and paint over the nail color you want to remove. Then, immediately use a paper towel to wipe off the nail you just painted. Continue until all polish is removed.
Answer
You can try and pick off the nail polish first, and then mix palmolive with water and scrub off remaining polish.
Answer
use peel off nail polish instead.
Answer
Acetone. It's harsh, but does the trick. Nails breath and that's how they grow so women should only put nail hardner (if they have weak nails) just up to the white moon of the nail (the moon is what breaths.) When you want to put nail color on (don't have it on all the time) then you can cover the moon of the nail.
NOTE: ACETONE IS NAIL POLISH REMOVER!
Answer
rubbing alcohol, paint thinner, lacquer thinner, turpentine, kerosene, lighter fluid, mineral spirits most slovents.
ANSWER:
Off insect repellant, or Deep woods Off. It also removes permanent markers off most surfaces.
i dont kno..
Fingernail polish and automotive paint are the same thing. Only difference is nail polish has glycerin added for shelf life.
Normal polish remover is just acetone, a product used in automotive and many other places. The clear you put on your nails is just like auto clearcoat for cars.
Saying that... to remove nail polish w/o chemicals... just look at automotive items. There are hand cleaners out there for auto painters that are non toxic and remove such items from hands. Permetex is one of these makers.
Just a matter of scrubbing your hands as if you were washing them and it will come right off. Since its on your nails, maybe a fingernail brush to help get the corners. Won't dry out your hands or cause them to be rough. Used it for years.
I do auto paint work, and about 10 yrs ago I was looking at starting a nail polish company. Was trying to invent the instant dry polish. But Revlon beat me to the punch so I stuck with just auto paint.
So the next time you get a chip on your car.... nail polish is fine to use no matter how many men scream at you. Actually you are doing more good than they are w/ their store bought touch up paint bottles. I won't even get into how wrong that stuff is.

use alcohol it works but just be careful not to use it on ur scrapes or cuts!!!
just chew them all.
Rubbing alcohol works well. Make sure you don't have any small cuts around your fingers though.
sand or chip them, soak in water for hours

Paint a fresh coat (any color- but clear works best) on your nail, let sit for 5-10 seconds and then wipe your nail off with a wet wash cloth (cotton balls works too, and are less messy- but take a little more effort than a wash cloth)
After doing this to each nail, wash and rinse your hands (paying close attention to your nails) in hot soapy water.
Use a nail file (electronic preferably) on the tops of your nails to scrape off any left over polish.
You don't. You must remove polish remover.
Sharp knife - lots of scraping, great care.
use petrol
Pick it off or add a fresh coat then wipe off the wet paint immediately. Not as good as proper remover but ok in an emergency. Oh and I discovered (accidentally) this summer that DEET insect repellant removes nail polish.
Answer
One nail at a time, use a clear nail polish or a light/sheer color and paint over the nail color you want to remove. Then, immediately use a paper towel to wipe off the nail you just painted. Continue until all polish is removed.
Answer
You can try and pick off the nail polish first, and then mix palmolive with water and scrub off remaining polish.
Answer
use peel off nail polish instead.
Answer
Acetone. It's harsh, but does the trick. Nails breath and that's how they grow so women should only put nail hardner (if they have weak nails) just up to the white moon of the nail (the moon is what breaths.) When you want to put nail color on (don't have it on all the time) then you can cover the moon of the nail.
NOTE: ACETONE IS NAIL POLISH REMOVER!
Answer
rubbing alcohol, paint thinner, lacquer thinner, turpentine, kerosene, lighter fluid, mineral spirits most slovents.
ANSWER:
Off insect repellant, or Deep woods Off. It also removes permanent markers off most surfaces.
i dont kno..
Fingernail polish and automotive paint are the same thing. Only difference is nail polish has glycerin added for shelf life.
Normal polish remover is just acetone, a product used in automotive and many other places. The clear you put on your nails is just like auto clearcoat for cars.
Saying that... to remove nail polish w/o chemicals... just look at automotive items. There are hand cleaners out there for auto painters that are non toxic and remove such items from hands. Permetex is one of these makers.
Just a matter of scrubbing your hands as if you were washing them and it will come right off. Since its on your nails, maybe a fingernail brush to help get the corners. Won't dry out your hands or cause them to be rough. Used it for years.
I do auto paint work, and about 10 yrs ago I was looking at starting a nail polish company. Was trying to invent the instant dry polish. But Revlon beat me to the punch so I stuck with just auto paint.
So the next time you get a chip on your car.... nail polish is fine to use no matter how many men scream at you. Actually you are doing more good than they are w/ their store bought touch up paint bottles. I won't even get into how wrong that stuff is.

You could try soak them in vinegar until they feel loose if they don't caring on soaking them in vinegar and them pull them off slowly.
Girlfriend,that is an easy one! All that you have to do is go to your local beauty supply and request a large bottle of acetone.Now don't get nail polish remover but get the real stuff.Soak your nails one hand @ a time and use an orange stick or nail file to push off the softened gel starting at the cuticle and moving out to the tip of the nail.This dose take about 30min.to an hour per hand;however you will save $ on going to the salon for the soak off procedure which by the way is the same thing you will do at home they just supply the acetone.Good Luck.

How to remove nail polish?
I am all out of nail polish remover! Is there any way to remove it without the remover? If it helps I have tried rubbing alcohol but it doesn't seems like its helping a whole lot. And I wouldn't mind any other tips for healthy nails...But most importantly how can I get the nail polish off!How to remove nail polish?
Sometimes you can get nail polish off by painting another coat of polish on top and then immediately wiping or washing it off before it can dry again.
I also found an interesting article about how you can use spray deodorant to clean the polish off. I've never tried it, but this is the link to the article http://www.wikihow.com/Remove-Nail-Polish-Without-Using-RemoverHow to remove nail polish?
Any product containing acetone or methyl-ethyl-ketone (MEK) will remove nail polish. This can include many paint-thinning or removal products, including lacquer thinner. However, these products can rapidly dehydrate human skin, and are highly flammable.
In addition, pure acetone has a flash point similar to gasoline (petrol) and vapours can be ignited by a nearby flame... it can also dissolve lots of common plastics....
Consumer nail polish remover is actually 60% acetone. But the remainder is moisturizers and water to reduce the impact on the skin, and to make it safer to use....
Polish can also be dissolved with more (wet) nail polish. It is recommended that this be done with clear nail polish, one finger at a time.
While DEET, the active ingredient in insect repellent, may also be effective, it is not recommended; it is also very damaging to many household plastics.
Another alternative is to use use peel-off nail polish instead.
also Acetone and alchol Do not peel the polish or your nails will turnbrittle also top of nail may peel off aswell.
If this is all too much trouble, nail-polish can be simply removed by first wetting the nails with water and then repolishing your nails while they are still wet with the same nail-polish.
This may have to be done twice according to the strength of the nail-polish
Or you can just buy some more nail polish remover. Live with it, or maybe just pick it off? Good luck!
If you used a clear base coat before you applied the nail polish, then you should be able to peel it right off.
One of the reasons I rarely wear nail polish is because I always end up peeling it off within an hour after it dries.
You can do it with new wet nailpolish, but I also found that sunscreen works too. lol...just rub it into your nails until it comes off. =]
Just paint a coat every 5 minutes as soon as it dries. Then in an hour, it will be so thick, you can peel it off!
chip it off with your fingernails.
If you have clear nail polish, dab a bit on each nail and scratch it off. It comes out easily!
u cud buy some remover, or live with the polish or pick it off :D

How could I remove finger nail polish from purple suede couch?
Well, try applying some fingernail polish remover to a part of the couch that isn't seen and see what affect it has on the material. If it doesn't cause discoloration or other harm, use it to clean the spot. Otherwise just get a couple of pillows and cover it up. Maybe it will wear off with time.How could I remove finger nail polish from purple suede couch?
Carefully scrape excess with a dull knife or spatula. Mix a solution of mild soap in lukewarm water. Swish to create a great volume of suds. Apply only the foam with a sponge, but avoid spreading the stain. Dry with a clean cloth. If the polish has hardened, try gently rubbing an artgum eraser across it. As a last resort, cautiously file the area with an emery board or a piece of very fine (grade 6/0-8/0) sandpaper. As a thin layer of hide is removed, work carefully.How could I remove finger nail polish from purple suede couch?
