A method for adhering an artificial nail to a natural nail by the use of an adhesive comprising at least one of .alpha.-cyanoacrylates of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R is n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, methoxyethyl, ethoxyethyl or etrahydrofurfuryl. This method does not generate heat and assures easy removal of the adhesion with a conventional solvent.

Method for adhering artificial nail
