Message: Jennsana,
The acrylic should have came off without taking your real nail with it when you whacked it. I'm getting a little suspicious about what that salon used in their acrylic. A banned product called methyl methacrylate, or MMA, may have been used. It's still used in a majority of Asian, or discount nail salons, if that's where you go. I would also recommend that you remove the remaining fakes before an injury like this happens again. Also, do you know that all of your nails are damaged underneath the acrylics? They will eventually become so thinned out from the sanding and chemicals that they will lift from your fingers. As for your nail, it may take about 3 to 6 months, sometimes more or less than that time, for it to grow back.

Message: first, take your finger and hit caps lock OFF! it's like you're yelling at us. jessica's correct. your own nail should have not poped off too. your own nails are thinned out and ruined underneath the acrylics. if you have any sense at all, you will get rid of them now, before you have nothing left under them after all the fills and filing you will go through with them. depending on how badly the matrix of your nail bed was damaged will be the factor in how quickly a nail will grow back. an acrylic on top of a sore, mangled nail bed will make it worse and could lead to infection and a deformed nail.
