Black nail designs scare off many fashionistas. It seems that such an aggressive manicure is only suitable for teenagers dressing in a Gothic style. But despite its harsh color, black manicure can be delicate, stylish, and even romantic. It all depends on what kind of technique and nail decor you choose.

Specificity

This color looks good at any length. Therefore, you should not deny yourself in it, even if you have recently cut your marigolds or they simply have not yet had time to grow to the desired size. It is worth carefully choosing the technology with which you are going to implement it.

Gel polish is at the peak of its popularity today. With its help, you can achieve the effect of smooth natural marigolds of the desired length and shape. Depending on individual characteristics, it lasts from 2 to 4 weeks on the nails. Therefore, before doing such a bright manicure, think about what you will wear it with to work or school.

Plain black varnish is a very practical solution if you need it literally for one evening. After this special occasion, you can easily remove it from your nails and you can paint them in a calmer shade. But it has a much shorter lifespan than gel polish. And after a week you will have to do a manicure again.

For lovers of long bright nails, extension is the ideal option. You will not have to be afraid for the safety of the marigolds and their cover. In addition, only the coating will be black and it can be easily changed whenever you want.

Color combinations

In addition to a solid black manicure, you can use various techniques and combinations with other colors.From this, the image will only be more interesting and unusual. Black is a classic and versatile color that suits almost all shades. It is very convenient. One has only to dilute it with pink or beige, and it no longer looks so brutal.

Black and white is a classic combination that will never go out of style. It personifies the confrontation between good and evil, and in Japanese culture, it is in these colors that one of the main symbols - Yin and Yang - is executed. By the way, this is a great idea for creating an ethnic style manicure.

Black with orange is a bright and juicy combination. The only drawback may be the problem of choosing the optimal image for such nails for every day. If you are going on vacation, then such a duet will be very appropriate.

Two saturated colors, black and blue, create a perfect combination. Despite the seeming gloom, a manicure in such tones will look very stylish. These are the colors of the basic wardrobe, so there should be no problems with choosing a style for them. How exactly to combine blue and black colors depends on your preference. It can be both pictures and a smooth gradient.

A light turquoise shade softens the seriousness of black. Drawings of this tone on a black background look especially interesting. But do not get carried away with it - design only an unnamed nail in a similar style, this will be enough to give the manicure individuality and originality.

Black with green is a bold combination. It can be both very light tones and dark saturated shades. If you want to try the latter combination, then take a look at the chameleon varnish. When the sun hits, it will cast either black or emerald green.

Red with black is a combination for fatal beauties. It will suit brunettes. To make the image look harmonious, it will be enough to choose a bright red lipstick to match the varnish. The smooth transition from black to red also looks interesting. But such a manicure cannot be called everyday. For girls who are forced to comply with a strict dress code at the workplace, this option is also not suitable.

A tandem with pink speaks of your versatility. On the one hand, you are a strong and confident person, on the other hand, you are not devoid of romance and enthusiasm. It is worth arranging just one nail in pink, and the black manicure will sparkle in a new way. You can also play with top coating. Making it matte will give your nails a velvety feel.

It is impossible to list all the ideas and options for combining black with gold and silver. It can be a jacket, and beautiful patterns, and complex geometry, and the design of a certain part (corner, area near the cuticle) in these shiny tones. It is safe to say that there will be very effective duets that will not go unnoticed by those around them.

Fashion trends

Every season, manufacturers and craftsmen do not get tired of inventing new techniques, effects and methods of performing manicure. As for black marigolds, the following design options are most in demand today.

Matte

A noble matte tone will make your nails velvety. Matte black manicure can be combined with gloss. Such a difference in textures on one hand looks noble and non-trivial. This can be the design of one marigold in gloss, and a kind of jacket, where the shine will be only on the free edge of the nail.

French

It has long ceased to be monotonous and boring. Here, a combination of a black base with gold or multi-colored tips is also permissible, and the design of only the free edge in black with a nude base of the rest of the nail.

Kamifubiki

These round sequins have captured the hearts of many fashionistas. When the rays of light hit the nails, it seems that perky sunbeams are playing on them. For a black background, you can select kamifubiki of any color. Just keep in mind that lighter shades will look much darker on a black base.

Chrome powder

A relatively new technology. With its help, create a fashionable mirror manicure. The ideal base for its application is just black varnish (gel varnish). And although it will no longer look pure black, the mirror effect will make you draw the attention of others. In addition, it can be easily combined with silver accessories and shoes that are fashionable this season.

Ombre

Another name for this amazing smooth effect is gradient. It is best if the master has a special device - an airbrush. Then the effect is amazing. The color smoothly passes into one another without any layers or stripes. You can try creating it with a brush, but it will be more difficult, and you will not be able to achieve a smooth gradient. With black, you can combine absolutely any shade that suits your style.

Marble

You should not make out all the marigolds using this technique. Marble looks much more elegant and interesting as an accent on one or two nails. With a dark base, the "streaks" can be white, beige or even pink. With high-quality execution, the full impression is created that the nail is made of stone.

Decor techniques

Today there are many ways to decorate nails. In addition, there are no restrictions on the use of various patterns, designs and stencils. This allows you to create a unique manicure on your nails every time. After all, it's nice to know that only you and no one else have exactly such a design.

The location and slope of the stripes can vary depending on your wishes. Experienced craftsmen will be happy to offer you interesting options that have already been tested. But nobody forbids you to invent your own design. For example, stripes can have different colors and widths. Their slope and intersections can also be varied.

It is not necessary to be symmetrical on all nails. Think about how modular paintings are designed. They are only united by one theme, but each of them is an independent unit. The same rule applies to manicure.

The patterns are interesting because the master creates absolute masterpieces on the nails every time. This is very similar to the work of an artist. Even with similar motives, you can get different results. Maybe you prefer ethnic motifs or interesting prints that mimic the colors of animals and birds. By the way, you can use special sticky pictures to create them.

Lunar manicure has not surprised anyone for a long time. The area near the base (shaped like a crescent) is painted in a different color from the rest of the nail. A manicure with holes in black is very practical. If you arrange them in nude shades, then a slightly grown nail will not stand out so much.

Foil is an interesting material. On a black background, it can be used to create the effect of a shiny worn surface. The fact is that the foil has a unique method of application. It is first applied to the nail, smeared with glue, and then the top layer is removed. Only a shiny surface remains on the nail (picture).

If at the beginning we talked about the fact that black manicure can be gentle and romantic, then lace is just that option. Usually, only part of the nail is made out for them. Options with lace at the end or corner of the nail look best. The traditional color of lace is, of course, white. But you can color it in either gold or silver. By the way, you can easily do it yourself. For this, there are special stickers with a transparent base. When it rests on a black base, only the pattern will be visible, not the entire sticker.

Veil on nails is an option for mysterious and enigmatic beauties. Looks very elegant with evening dress in dark colors. This effect is achieved through a special application technique. It is enhanced by applying a veil pattern (mesh, repetition of black lace patterns).

The assortment of specialized stores and beauty salons presents a variety of shades, sizes and shapes of rhinestones. Their play is literally mesmerizing. Using them in moderation on a black base will add shine and chic to your manicure.

If you do not want options with red and pink hearts, then you can ask the master just not to paint over the faded area or use a stencil. At the same time, the heart will have a transparent tone. This design will no longer resemble childish naive motives, but, rather, will characterize you as a fatal beauty.

Sequins are appropriate everywhere and always. It's important to follow a sense of proportion and not turn your nails into sparkling Christmas toys. Gold stripes on a black background are luxury in all its manifestations. Note that different glitters have different size and glow. Due to this, you can achieve both the effect of a light and unobtrusive shine, and a very bright picture.

Another decorative elements with which you can lay out an original pattern or design are broths. It is very difficult to work with them due to their microscopic size. The master carefully lays out each grain of sand in its place. Usually they are combined with larger stones or emphasize the pattern created on the nail.

Special varnishes - "chameleons" help to create interesting overflows. Under different lighting conditions, they have different shades from each other. It's hard to believe that these are the same coverage. What color your black varnish will cast depends on your desire. It can "go" in purple, green, blue and burgundy tones. As you can see, there is only room for deep saturated shades.

Traditional Japanese or Chinese motifs are also acceptable in nail art. One need only take into account one circumstance. Many will want to ask what this hieroglyph means. Therefore, it is worth paying special attention to this. It is very beneficial and interesting. Many people get tattoos for this purpose. You can pick up an interesting deep meaning, while not worrying that now it will stay with you for life.

Black manicure with decorative bows looks very playful. However, it cannot be called childish. With a certain design, it can even resemble spicy black stockings with the same element. But this is just one of the options. If you are going to a children's costume party, then remember the image of Mini. A black background and a pink big bow can be placed on your nails.

With newspaper design, it would be appropriate to decorate all nails with a monochromatic black varnish, and decorate only one with a "newspaper". This will sound especially true if your work is related to print media, publishing or another similar field.

Flowers on a black background look especially bright and contrasting. You can afford to draw both a gorgeous rose and a delicate tulip. Pay attention to the watercolor technique of execution. Such a design can claim to be an independent painting. It is a pity that only her life will be short-lived.

Magnetic powder, which has recently appeared in the position of manicure masters, allows you to create a light line on the nail. In this case, the color acquires volume and depth. This technique is called "Cat's Eye". At the same time, the black saturated color looks even more attractive and interesting.

If you don't know what to combine black manicure with, then look at the basic colors of your wardrobe, and then make splashes of the same tones on your own nails. This color transition from clothes to nails will create a holistic image.

Manicure tapes are affordable and make the job much easier. With their help, you can create perfectly straight lines and geometric patterns. Moreover, this material can be used both as a stencil and as an independent decorative element.Even novice masters can perform a manicure with ribbons.

Black is a noble basis for creating space designs. The glitter of distant stars and galaxies on your nails will be mesmerizing. Another question is whether you can choose the appropriate image for such a distinctive manicure.

A special film is used to create the "broken glass" effect. The master glues it to the nail in a certain order, so that the impression of small fragments is created. It is worth choosing saturated shades, since the translucent texture of the film will be obscured by a dark background.

Combination with image

Women and girls who have a strict dress code at work will not be able to afford a black manicure. If your bosses are not so strict, then elegant black will go well with a business suit. In addition, as mentioned above, these can be very calm and stylish combinations.

But do not associate black with mourning. When adding gold, sparkles or rhinestones, he changes his mood to the completely opposite. Check out the stars' outfits on the carpet. Each of them appeared in the spotlight in a black dress. Therefore, a black manicure for special occasions is an excellent option.

The gothic image arises in the mind first when we talk about black manicure. If you also thought before that it was only suitable for girls adhering to this style, now you see that it is not. However, you can use elements of this style when creating a fashionable look. For example, a high platform is back in fashion today, and black things are basic in every girl's wardrobe.

Do not be afraid of black manicure. Take a look at all the possible options described above. Let them inspire you to create your own interesting designs.
