"French design that covers the nail tips ," says Amy Ling, founder of Sundays nail-care brand and salon. "The almond shape makes the nails look longer and narrower compared to other shapes, and this can be accentuated or muted depending on the design."Įven though the canvas is only centimeters big, the current nail trend toward French manicures have technicians shrinking it even smaller, with designs specifically created only for the tip of the nail.
"We find that all designs look good on almond shaped-nails," agrees Molly Romah, lead nail technician at Chillhouse in New York City. That's why it's a go-to," says nail artist Elle Gerstein. "The beauty of an almond nail, and of what art can do to the shape, is that it's different from what you can achieve on a square nail in all different lengths. We love it all, but we've got to admit - there's just something about art on almond-shaped nails that really has a hold on us. Just about any nail shape is fit for some good nail art: whether they're pointed talons or short and squoval, we're of the opinion that a well-prepped canvas, no matter how it's sculpted, provides an opportunity for you or your nail tech to create something wonderful.
