Shapes for short nails

Even if natural nails can not grow long, this is not a reason for frustration. Modern nail aesthetics involves many options for a spectacular manicure on short nails. In addition, the short length is more popular due to the fact that it is allowed when busy in various fields.

No matter how fashionable the manicure is, if the shape of the nails chosen is improper, then it will not look beautiful. In the fashion of the natural beauty of the hands. Therefore, it is important to choose the most suitable form for your nail plates. Do not try to comply with fashion trends. It is only important to consider several criteria:

• the appearance of brushes;
• finger length;
• palm size and shape of the nail bed;
• strength of nail plates.

If the nails are strong enough, square or rectangular shape is possible. Soft plates on the free edge should be gently rounded. But oval marigolds look harmoniously only on delicate fingers. For plump and short almond shape is preferable, visually extending them. Lean hands feminine refinement give a classic rectangular shape. For any doubts and the average fullness of the arms and the length of the fingers, you can choose a round classic shape or square marigolds. This will be a valid and win-win solution.

Of course, nail-stilettos (“stilletto”, “cat's claws”) or the beveled shape of “lipstick” or “glasses” will not fit the minimum length of the plates. They look spectacular only with good length and most often on extended surfaces. Small sharp nails look ridiculous and ridiculous.

Choose something from the classic forms for short nails is quite simple. It is necessary to understand which form will emphasize the beauty of the fingers or visually make them more elegant. In addition, it is important to learn how to care for your nails yourself. Each form needs regular correction.

To give the plates such a shape, they need to file perpendicular to the fingers. The beauty of such nails is their undoubted plus, and the downside is the need for frequent correction and impracticality in everyday life due to sharp corners.

Most of the creative solutions for nail design are offered for such short and neat claws. Seasonal themes of the phenomena of different seasons - leaves, palm trees, fruits, snowflakes, Christmas trees and so on. Sea theme holiday pores - vests, anchors, fish, dolphins, juicy colors of summer, neon. French is relevant in different variations with inverted holes, transparent or colored with a contrasting color, stencil design, gradient, ombre.

The oval looks perfect on delicate fingers with thin brushes and short nails. To give the nails of this form they need to file, copying the shape of the base, but in a mirror image. This simple shape is ideal for short plates. It slightly protrudes above the nail bed and is in harmony with its natural shape. This form has many positive aspects.

• Versatility. With a short length is suitable for everyone, regardless of the type of activity.It is used equally in everyday manicure and for festive events. Accents are arranged using design.
• Practicality. The absence of pointed corners does not create clues on fabrics and eliminates the possibility of accidental cuts.
• Convenience correction. On the basis of the oval, you can create other shapes if desired.

Looks naturally on short and stout fingers with wide palms and wrists. Filing nails on the free edge is held in the shape of a crescent.

It looks good on short nails, even if their surface is not in perfect condition. For damaged and weakened nails, this form is even practical and useful - reduces brittleness and the likelihood of damage. In everyday life, round nails are the most popular among medical staff, creative people playing musical instruments, employees of children's institutions.

Round shape on short nails is not too good for geometric patterns and large patterns. Rhinestones better to choose small and in a minimum amount. French will not appear on them in all its glory. But all the pastel shades and matte varnishes will look quite noble and decent.

It is wrong to assume that the oval and almond-shaped forms are similar. The latter is narrower and sharper visually, in outline very reminiscent of almond, which was the reason for this name.

The shape of the almond is comfortable with smooth contours and because it makes the manicure more lasting. But nevertheless it is better to avoid serious physical work with such manicure. But routine affairs and simple work do not threaten with the breakage of “almond” marigolds. Especially good shape for short nails. The tapered edge visually lengthens the plate and "pulls" the fingers.

Almond-shaped nails - a sign of femininity and grace. For this reason, they are always in demand in salons and are the choice of lovers of home manicure.

It should be noted that unnecessarily short nails for this form are not allowed. The length of the nail plate should not be less than the nail bed. The main snag in the "almond" design is the correct filing of the nail on the free edge.

Nail design consists of three stages.

• Giving the plates a square shape. First, the nail is cut in a straight line. Better with the help of special pliers, not nail scissors.
• Ripping the square symmetrically from two sides to achieve the form of a trapezoid.
• Grinding the corners of a trapezoid to form almonds.

On the "almond" look different designs. At the same time, such marigolds are shown even to ladies with plump handles and not particularly graceful fingers. Almond shape corrects visual imperfections and gives grace to brushes. But brittle and weak nails are best done round or oval. At least for the period of treatment. Because the "almond" requires careful wear and at least minimal, but the same length. Otherwise, to create such a beautiful shape on short nails will not succeed.

If there is no time to restore weak nails, but I want to wear only this form, shellac will help out. Nails under it will become stronger, but will retain elasticity. So, there is every chance to grow them to preserve such an elegant form.

It is difficult to find such hands that such unusual shape of nails cannot give an attractive look. Fashionable manicure is a mix of an oval and a square, visually extending plump and shortish fingers and amazingly ennobled fine brushes.

This form is reminiscent of ballet "pointe shoes", because she is called a ballerina. She is so graceful and flawless that she always looks festive. Even the simplest and most inconspicuous design looks attractive on the “pointe”. And originality and brightness can be added with rhinestones, glitter and nail art. At business meetings such marigolds are appropriate in nude tones, covered with powder or matte varnish of cold shades in gray-brown tones.

The “ballet” form on short nails looks elegant, especially with a delicate lace pattern, restrained with a french dress and a fashionable “marble” pattern or embossed patterns. But the dark saturated tones for the "ballerina" are not forbidden. And if you combine them with elements of the eastern and ethnicity, you can be seen as the first fashionista in the nail direction.

A wonderful choice for nail forms "ballerina" - the French "smile" in the classic or modified form. It is suitable for all occasions, even for the coronation. According to statistics, for wedding events it is the nails, which are most often chosen. At the peak of popularity - an “envelope” with a triangle on take-off, lace painting, ombre and other soft pastel designs.

For girls with thin “musical” fingers, this particular form is more suitable. In fact, a rectangular version is cut out of the square, which is attached to the rounded edges. This is a great solution for nails with a small narrow bed.

The disadvantage of nails with smoothed corners is that they do not fit wide-bone brushes and plump fingers. All the others can easily make such nails on their own at home.

On rectangular plates of a short length, the manicure looks neat and solid. It is interesting to use on them a combination of several colors of one shade or to highlight some nails with contrast.

Short rectangular nails are allowed to be worn in different fields of activity. They do not interfere with young mothers, doctors, veterinarians, laboratory technicians, cashiers, etc. They do not break due to rounded corners and do not scratch for the same reason. It is just a godsend for women of any age. And the design to them is easy to choose according to your own taste, direction and for any event. Interesting solutions will make a “rectangular” manicure elegant if desired, or, on the contrary, neat and modest as needed.

Judging by the reviews of “bearers” of short nails, with the existing variety of suitable shapes and designs, you will not even want to grow the length. The girls in fashion are not only spectacular, but also a comfortable manicure, because modern women of fashion are very active in everyday life. A lot of different things in busy schedules of weekdays and weekends require combining accuracy with attractiveness, comfort and style.
