Manicure with a crown: stylish ideas and techniques

Manicure with a crown is a stylish version of modern nail design. He has a lot of opportunities for decorating nails, and sometimes it seems that drawing something like this is difficult. However, this is not quite true.

Manicure with a crown does not belong to the category of universal. He is originally dressed, and he does not fit every stylistic direction of clothing at all and is far from appropriate in every case. This is a smart solution for women of different age groups, however, in order for a female image with such a supplement to receive the rapturous looks of others, you must understand that this design:

• not suitable for everyday bows business woman and office workers;
• can not be used in the image with reference to the dress code;
• It looks better on a light background, so it needs a substrate for a more interesting look;
• implies a beautiful shape of the nail plates;

• must be the only one on at least one hand, excluding any cloning and addition of similar elements;
• combines with the color of the main pigment manicure;
• performed in different techniques, but on a solid or uncolored base;
• located in the center of the accent nail without the slightest bias in one of the sides;
• ugly overcame when done on two accent nails half of the pattern on each.

The crown is often painted on the nails painted in the same color. This technique is called the classic and is built on the staining of the nail plates over the entire area with a varnish of the same color. At the same time, the accent nail itself can be made not only in the color of the base of the manicure.

This design will look beautiful on a plain background with other nails, made in the French technique. This technique is characterized by the presence of the usual smile (by staining the upper edge of the nail in white or another color). Using harmonious combinations of shades, you can create a unique and luxurious design, thanks to which a woman will be in the center of attention.

With regards to the french technique, it can be noted that it is an excellent basis for decorating smiles. It is from them that one can create laconic crowns, paint sharp corners to the smile and put dots on their tops, using a dots with a small nozzle. By the way, it is suitable for a similar design and technique of an inverted jacket or even a moon manicure, because the holes can also be given the appearance of crowns. However, when creating such a design, it is necessary to take into account that accents are good and expressive only when there are few of them.

To make the crown holes look stylish, the rest of the nails should be painted with a monochromatic varnish. In addition to French manicure, the technique can be a gradient or ombre effect. And to use for all nails can be different types of hybrid coatings. For example, a matte gel polish will allow you to add a high status to your design. Against this background, the crown will look expensive and majestic.

Color solutions manicure with a crown can be very diverse. For example, not only the background, but also the tone of the crown itself may differ. If in the traditional version it is more often black, gold or silver, then, in addition to these colors of the palette, it can be:

• red;
• blue;
• black and green;
• fuchsia colors;
• bright blue;
• purple.

The crown on the accent nails can be white, if the main background of the manicure is a dark gel polish.For example, a white pattern on a black, black and violet or emerald base will look beautiful. This solution is especially important for short nails, because the light tones of gel polish visually reduce the already insufficient length of the nail plates. If you want to choose a bright color of design, for example, red, then you will have to choose a softer contrast so that the two companions do not compete with each other.

Create a design on short nails, in addition to drawing techniques, you can alternative ways. For example, you can use ready-made stickers or stamps with engraving. They differ from the painting technique in that they do not need to paint in these cases, and it takes much less time to create a beautiful accent. Stemping, if desired, can be painted like a stained glass technique, but until the pattern is glued to the nail. The pattern is colored, moreover, rather accurate, which is another advantage of this technology.

Consider the full technology of accent nail decoration. On its basis, you can draw a design using any color inks. However, you need to understand that for light colors the substrate should be light so as not to distort the beauty of the original color. For example, for white, beige and even red, the underpainting should be white. If it was decided to paint in silver or gold, the substrate should be dark.

There are several options.

To make the crown look beautiful and stand out from the base, you should prepare:

• base coat;
• the finish;
• light gel polish for the background;
• black lacquer for the crown substrate;
• golden gel;
• rhinestones and bouillons golden brown.

In addition, you will need a thin brush and a transparent modeling gel. To get a print professionally, you should first draw it at least in the form of a sketch. It will show what the size should be in order for the picture to look beautiful and fit on the nail. When everything is ready, you can proceed to design.

• The nail plate is covered with a layer of the base, dried in a drying device.
• After that, the accent nail is painted with two thin layers of pigmented varnish with drying of each of them.
• Then take a thin brush and black acrylic gel-paint and just below the middle of the nail draw a transverse line.
• Under the base line obtained, the future crown is carried out one more, only more subtle.
• Finding the approximate center of the upper line, draw a concave rhombus above it.
• Along the edges of the line do half-bombs. All three elements (together with the middle) should be elongated, ending sharply.
• From the base of the central rhombus on each side draw a curl. The same is repeated on each inner side of the semi-arms.
• Above the top line, diamonds and curls are crossed by thin strokes.
• The resulting substrate is coated with gold paint.
• The nails are dried in the lamp, and then sealed with a finish layer and dried again.

Start decorating. In order to not have a lot of decor, and the crown looked beautiful, you need to pick up different-sized elements. Smaller rhinestones are glued to the upper base, the strip at the bottom is left untouched. More rhinestones are fixed in the centers of a rhombus and semi-mortars. To make the crown look more realistic, bouillons can be glued along the edges of rhombuses or around large rhinestones.

It is necessary to glue the decor onto the finishing coating after its application, therefore this layer may be more dense than all previous ones. However, rhinestones, like kamifooks and bouillons, are held much stronger on a transparent modeling gel. Of course, working with him is a little more difficult than with a top, because you have to gain a lot of weight, avoiding its surplus near the pasted decor.

A transparent gel is also convenient because it can easily replace small decor such as bouillons, without detracting from the bulk of the design. It is important to take into account the fact that after gluing a three-dimensional decor it is necessary once again, or even two, to cover the accent nail with a top material.Moreover, it is important to ensure that the composition does not fall on the sparkling decor, because from this one will cease to shine.

According to the approximate scheme, you can create a different model of the crown. For its performance also use black paint, as a substrate under a golden paint. The action algorithm is as follows:

• First, two transverse lines are drawn on the nail already painted and dried in the lamp;
• the upper one is thickened, after which a handle is drawn above it;
• from the center of the bow up spend a small thin line;
• along the edges they also draw verticals just below the center line;
• the distances between the lateral lines and the central one are divided into two and draw upwards along one more line, which must also be lower than the central one;
• the arch is thickened, smoothly connecting with vertical lines, ennobling the teeth of the future crown;
• the substrate is dried and coated on top with a layer of gold;
• then an accent nail is applied to the finish and, while it is still sticky, they start decorating the crown;
• rhinestones are glued to the top of the crowns, and crystals are placed on top of them;
• two transverse lines (thick base and thin bottom) are connected by golden rhinestones, sticking them to symmetrically derived teeth;
• the bow is filled with small bouillon;
• after all the glittering elements of the decor are glued, the nail is dried in the lamp, and then once again covered with a layer of top;
• if the material has a sticky layer, it must be removed after drying.
