Why Are Acrylic Nails Causing Nail Yellowing? Causes & Solutions

Question
Under my arcylic nail, my real nail turned yellow, what is the reason for this? I was wondering how to get rid of it for future reference. Thank you


Answer
Dear Lauren,

I regret that without a consultation, I would not be able to answer this question.  Most likely, it's an infection.
However, are you absolutely certain it is your nail and not the acrylic?  Poor/cheap/toxic acrylic will yellow.
Please refer to this page for further info: http://ongles-chez-victoria.tripod.com/victoriasnails/id18.html

My best advice would be for you to meet with a doctor and have him treat your nails if you have an infection with prescription.

Best regards
Victoria
