A woman has gone viral on TikTok after sharing her bizarre, and rather unsettling, technique for removing acrylic nails. We wouldn't recommend trying this at home.
Watch the video here:
Nail technician Anna Kazakova (@trash.nailsss) both horrified and intrigued TikTok viewers when they stumbled across her video of her removing her fake nails in a rather violent manner.
Laying her hand on the table, Anna revealed the extreme length she had let her glamorous black acrylics get to before she shortened them in seconds.

Talking through her wild technique, Anna said: “If you think about it, it looks rather strange, but for me this is something rather ordinary. When it’s time to change old nails to new ones, this way of shortening them seems to me the most optimal.”
While Anna's natural nails do - thankfully - seem to remain in tact after she knocks off her acrylics, this is one TikTok beauty trick we wouldn't recommend testing out for yourself!
