Short nails are always versatile and look neat. They are easier to care for, they are suitable for any shape and length of fingers, not whimsical to use. Although one of the most important reasons for choosing short nails is the risk of breaking the nail. It is also very beautiful if you choose the right manicure design.
Types of coatings
First you need to figure out what kind of coating will be used for nails: ordinary varnish, gel polish, or it is a gel coating, which is distinguished by its strength and durability. Regular nail polish can stay on the nail plate for up to 5 days with very careful handling. Gel polish lasts about 2 weeks, maximum 3 weeks.
Gel nails can last for about 4-5 weeks, and with the help of the tool, you can make various designs of nails using stones, sculpting, rhinestones, sparkles, various accessories - the choice is very large.
Design types
If we talk purely about the color design of nails, without affecting the types of coatings, contrast is needed for a bright manicure. One of the easiest options is to place a bold accent on one or two fingers.by painting them with a color that will contrast with the rest, for example, middle and unnamed.
It is worth noting that the colors should contrast, however, harmoniously combine in the overall composition. Color classics: red and black, yellow and mint, pink and lilac.
Gradient manicure as one of the types of nail design is performed with the gradation of colors from one shade to another. It looks beautiful and neat in a matte finish with simple transitions of two colors, or you can complicate it by adding a few more shades to enhance the color depth.
Drawings on nails made by hand or applied with stamping technique, sliders, rhinestones are relevant.
Geometric ornament (zigzags, stripes, triangles) this year they have gained high popularity and are not giving up their positions. The main feature of this manicure is the uniqueness of each marigold of one hand, the pattern on all five fingers should not be repeated. Ideal if the geometry is drawn in black, brown or white, so that the nails stand out and do not get lost against the general background.
Smooth curls, abstract designs and lace appliqués are also encouraged. The location of the pattern can be different, there are no restrictions here: on the side, on the edge of the nails, in the middle.
If we consider the bright design of short nails through the prism of a manicure with a gel polish or gel coating, a wide range of choices opens up (rub, pigments, powders, sand, sparkles, rhinestones, stones, stucco molding). Rubbing for nails is one of the modern trends in the nail industry. The material is a shiny pigmented powder for rubbing into the surface of the nail plate. The result is influenced by the degree of rubbing in this pigment: from light shimmer to mirror shine.
Rub-in is used to create a mirror manicure, and if you apply silver, gold or copper pigment, you can get the effect of liquid metal.
The novelties of this season include the design of nails using confetti of various sizes, colors and shapes, although circles are most often found. With the help of translucent shimmery confetti, you can complement and emphasize a light discreet manicure in beige or light pink tones, or make a bright accent using brighter shades.
General recommendations
Take advantage of the recommendations of the professionals:
- a bright manicure is always a risk to overload the overall composition, so try to maintain a balance of color contrasts and additional decor;
- use stones in manicure on no more than 2 fingers of one hand, if there is a whole ensemble on each of them;
- vertically laid out rhinestones on short nails visually lengthen and make the hands more graceful;
- refrain from drawings in the form of butterflies, petals - they are considered a "relic of the past";
- matte manicure in light shades gets dirty faster than dark nails, keep this in mind when choosing colors;

The undoubted advantage of a bright manicure is that it draws attention to the nails and to their owner, however, it will look losing on unkempt hands. Therefore, it is imperative to monitor the cleanliness and smoothness of the skin of the hands.

A small detail can drastically change the overall appearance of the marigold. The design classics are rhinestone holes. They look very expressive and elegant, even regardless of the length and shape of the marigold.
Pasting a placer of stones diagonally, straight lines, single in the zone of the moons, densely lined up over the entire area of the nail or the image of decorative bows made of rhinestones - you can spend hours deciding on the choice of a new manicure from such a variety.Separately, I would like to highlight the decor in the style of "liquid stones", imitating the design with sapphires for extravagant girls.
