Short manicure: such important little things
It would seem that nothing could be simpler than a short manicure: extension is not required, filed nails, waved varnish, and beauty. But is it really so? Of course not! Manicure for short nails is a demanding and capricious thing. The fact is that a lot of nuances fall on the anatomy of the hand and fingers in the first place.
Who would like a short manicure?
Small nail length is not suitable for every fashionista. She isit will look great on fingers that are long in themselves and have a good, elongated and narrow nail bed. In this case, you do not have to think about color and design in general. If the young lady cannot boast of "violinist's pens", then she will have to very scrupulously approach the design of her nails.
Shaping
Short manicure cannot boast of a rich choice of sawdust shape. There are only 3 options: square, oval and squa-oval (soft square). Almonds are categorically contraindicated: nails become like seeds.
When choosing sawdust, it is necessary to pay attention to the curvature of the cuticle, the width and shape of the nail plate. For clarity:
- Narrow, elongated plate with an oval cuticle. All three sawdust options are suitable for this shape of the nail.
- Elongated, wide plate with a square cuticle line. Here you should choose a square or squaw-oval. An oval can also be considered, but you should be prepared for the fact that the nail will look more round than oval.
- Short plate. In this case, the cuticle line does not play a special role, since you will only have to stop at the oval shape. Otherwise, the nails run the risk of turning into "scapulas".
The length of the fingers themselves, and the width as well, also play an important role. Small fingers "prefer" the oval shape of sawdust, as well as plump ones. Long and thin fingers can please any shape. The most important thing is to observe the overall harmony of the hand. It is important to remember that no matter how much you want a particular sawdust, you should considerabsolutely all the nuances and listen to the advice of the master.
Choose a design
The design decision in choosing a beautiful manicure is a very important aspect. This includes everything: the color of the varnish, and the use of decor. Short nails are quite capricious. For a long nail plate, you can use any color and any decor. For a small nail bed, it is recommended to use pastel shades and very concise accents for decoration.
Christmas design
To give the New Year's manicure a festive mood, it is advisable to use a thematic design. But at the same time, you can absolutely calmly choose what your heart desires. So what ideas do nail artists suggest using?
French
Classic for all time. French manicure can be concise, strict, elegant. And it can cause a playful mood and give the nails a festive touch. French is combined with any form of sawdust, suitable for any color of varnish. A colored jacket makes the hands more elegant, but a pure white suits any design. It is important to remember that a jacket can also “harm”: short nails can be even shorter.
Solid
Very good choice. Monochromatic coating in any situation, perfect for New Year's Eve and for working days. Versatile nail polish colors such as nude allow you to create any look and go with any style. Absolutely all fingers “love” a monochromatic coating: andskinny and chubby. On the latter, an oval in delicate colors looks especially advantageous, which can have a mother-of-pearl or shimmer base.
Christmas Glow
Glitter is one of the options for decorating the cover. They can be completely independent, or as an addition to the main design line. Sequins go great with any style. They give a special charm to the New Year's design. But again, do not abuse them, so as not to turn into a "magpie".
Sequins can be plain, colored, with a holographic effect. A gentle scattering will perfectly decorate a dark gel polish and give airiness to the coating.
Christmas drawings
Themed drawings will never go out of style. They give playfulness, festivity, complement the image. Master artists are highly regarded in the world of nail art. Of course, you can get by with stickers or stencils, but this all loses to real art. Many things can be depicted on nails: from toys and cartoons to real landscapes.
It is important to understand that artistic design is very demanding in terms of length. Since we are talking about New Year's manicure on short nails, then you need to focus on the following:
- Length of the nail bed. The shorter the nail plate, the more concise the drawing should be. Better pretend to be a toysnowflake, Christmas tree or cartoon face than trying to write a winter night in a limited space. A heavy drawing with a small drawing on a small nail will merge into one incomprehensible spot. While one artistic element will not affect the overall direction of the idea.
- The main color of the gel polish. He can be anyone. It is only important that the drawing does not get lost against the general background, but “plays” beautifully, setting the tone for the whole image.
- Using auxiliary decor (rhinestones, stones, etc.). Rarely, when a drawing requires additional decoration. Of course, a small rhinestone in the center of a snowflake or an asterisk will perfectly complement the idea, but an overload of stones will make it look “expensive-bohato” and hopelessly ruin it.
Red Christmas Manicure
There are a lot of shades of red. But use this color carefully. And although it is considered a classic, the color red does not tolerate frivolity.
Red itself is quite independent. It rarely requires additions. Unless it favorably accepts sparkles, foil, rhinestones (very little), rubbed. Drawings can be used, but mostly monograms or a very schematic image.
It should be remembered that small, plump fingers with a wide and short plate will become even shorter and plumper if you use red gel polish.
Blue color
Perhaps this is the most "winter" color. He is close friends with any jewelry. WhatAs for drawings, blue provides a wide scope for imagination. On this basis, any drawing will stand out, attract attention.
Blue color well accepts jacket, rhinestones, glitter and shimmer. The finish can be glossy or matte. On a dark blue gel polish, airbrushing looks advantageous. Although blue is a cool color, it makes the design warm and velvety.
Gold and silver colors
If silver is still acceptable on all nails, then you should be careful with gold. It is best to single out one or two marigolds than to “zababah” the dream of a pirate - “piastres and doubloons”. Gold and silver can act as a jacket. They can depict a simple monogram or a small element of the picture: a snowflake or an asterisk.
Where there is gold and silver, you should not use other design options (stones and rhinestones), so as not to overload the coating.
By the way, the symbol of the year dictates its own rules, so if you believe in horoscopes, get a manicure that pleases the Tiger - the symbol of 2023.
Summing up
Choosing a successful and original New Year's manicure on short nails is not an easy task.
But don't be afraid of little nails. Even if the plate is "skewed" to zero, or has an irregular shape (trapezium), there is always the opportunity to slightly increase or correct the nail.
Well, a beautiful design will help you choose a nail service master who will take into account all the nuances tocreate the perfect manicure for New Year 2023.
