Black extended nails: the technique of execution and design options

Black manicure is no longer readable as gloomy or “vampiric”. Fashion trends dictate new textures and designs that make it modern and luxurious. The finish can be matte, glossy, with the effect of velor and "broken glass". Abundantly used patterns, decorative rhinestones and kamifubuki.

What are the forms of nails?

• Square - classic short or medium length shape. It happens with sharp and soft corners. For black manicure is better to choose a short length.

• Oval - it is characterized by soft rounding of the edges of the nail and medium length. Comfortable to wear.

• Almond - This is an elongated oval with softer outlines. Perfect for dark manicures.

• Stylet - the longest nails and at the same time sharp. The length of the free edge is equal to the length of the nail plate.

• Peak - represents the pointed and thin stylet. The length of the building can sometimes reach 7 cm or more, providing a large space for artistic painting.

• Beveled - this form in everyday life causes inconvenience due to its non-standard appearance and sharp angles. Used in various nail art contests.

New styles of nails:

• Bridget is a stiletto with a narrowed square;
• pipe - rectangular shape of the nail with an almond-shaped tip;
• Edge - stylet in the form of a narrowed square with one face.

To extend the nail plate can be by building. Do this with acrylic or gel, on forms or tips. The procedure itself takes not much time and is simple in technique. Artificial nails are stronger than natural ones, and thanks to a special coating, the manicure is resistant and durable.

Sharp nails have a number of flaws. First, this form is not suitable for every type of hand and shape of the nail bed. Secondly, pointed nails are easily susceptible to deformation during physical work. Thirdly, you will have to give up everyday tasks, such as putting on tights, opening doors, typing on the keyboard, opening bottles and cans. This is due to the fact that the length and shape of the nails does not allow you to fully use your hand, and the nails will constantly rest against any surfaces and will break if they move incorrectly.

Most of the sharp forms are fully extended nails on the forms. Tips are not applied due to the fact that the zone of "stress" - the place where the tips is attached to the natural nail - is not able to withstand the load.

With the help of a gel or acrylic powder on the form, the master lays out a layer that becomes a new nail, giving it a length and silhouette at once. After polymerization in the lamp shape is clamped and create the arch, which gives the nail its natural curve. Further, a sculptural gel is applied, which is responsible for the thickness and density of the artificial nail. After all these procedures, proceed to the desired design.

• Manicure with red. It is preferable to use on long nails or short, with the shape of a soft square. An interesting idea is the red staining of the inner surface of the free edge of the nail. The combination of matte dark and red glossy coatings is well combined.

• Option with white color. Universal design of manicure, suitable for any style, including business. Glitters, rhinestones, decals, paintings are used to dilute monochrome.
