Characteristic
Decorating in dark notes is suitable for the fair sex of all ages. A varied palette of varnishes allows you to easily combine the design with shoes in different styles. Dark varnishes are much easier to combine with open shoes and sandals than flashy colors. The main advantage of this decoration is that colors are not as strongly reproduced as bright colors and are perceived more pleasantly. Although dark color tends to visually decrease, this style is suitable for nails of various lengths, the main thing is to choose the right color and, if desired, dilute the design with light colors.

Dark varnish can be used to decorate a single color finish or as a base for a variety of pedicure techniques. Stones, rhinestones, sparkles and other details are actively used when creating a dark pedicure. Moreover, designers note that various additions are more appropriate for dark decor than for bright one.
When choosing jewelry, you must take into account the style of clothing, the main color and the general image for which you are choosing a pedicure.

- Gray. The trend of using gray for pedicure decoration is rapidly gaining momentum. This season, the idea is relevant and in demand. The dark gray design is chosen by fans of strict and minimalistic designs. Both glossy and matte textures are great for the shade, but for modern decors, the second option is often chosen. This color looks great both in mono version and in combination with other paints. If the use of a dark gray varnish seems boring and faded to you, pay attention to designs using sequins and rhinestones.
The gray color is great for a lazy pedicure and French technique.

Black pedicure
We should dwell on this option in more detail. Designs in a dark achromatic color are considered an original choice for the summer season. Some people think that such a pedicure is inappropriate for the summer or spring, but this is not the case.

It is worth considering the most popular combinations with black.
- White. Black and white pedicure is most often done using the techniques of lunar and French. The nail on the big toe can be decorated with a composition of rhinestones and large sequins.
- Gold and silver. When it comes to creating an elegant and solemn decor, you cannot do without gold and silver details. The color of the shiny elements should match the jewelry and makeup palette.
- Red. When you duet these two colors, you need to be careful, otherwise the design will turn out to be rough and sloppy. It is better to choose softer and more delicate shades of red.
