I had gel nails done last weekend and today while opening presents the right thumb nail popped off. I'm getting married tomorrow so I can't wait til Monday to get it fixed. Is there a temporary way to reattach the nail until I can get it repaired? The only thing I can think of is to put a layer of top coat on my bare nail and attach the get tip to that and hope it sticks? Someone suggested crazy glue but then it would never come off, right?

Someone help please!!

I use crazy glue on my nails all the time. It's not as effective as whatever they use, but it's a great quick fix. Just make sure your hands and the nail are completely dry when you use it.

Best wishes and congratulations!
 
Another option is nail glue. The kind used to put on fake nails.
 

Where do I find that at a place that is open today?

They should have it in the nail polish section of any drug store or grocery store. I am not sure what is open today though. Good luck and congratulations on your upcoming wedding!

Thank you. Maybe a trip to shoppers (your version of cvs I think) is in order after supper. I don't care if it only works for 12 hours, I just need 10 nails for tomorrow lol
 
Don't know if there's a Walgreens by you but they're open today in the US. good luck and congrats!
