Of course, most often teenage girls or young girls become fans of this option. However, this does not mean at all that such a design is unacceptable for ladies of a respectable age. Even cartoon characters allow you to emphasize the character of a woman.

Peculiarities
A classic jacket, moon manicure or traditional sequins has long been no surprise, so cartoon characters have come to the aid of the manicure masters. The design is selected taking into account personal preferences and social status. For example, the Little Mermaid will be able to emphasize in a woman a gentle and romantic nature, and Winnie the Pooh will indicate that this lady is easy-going and has a good sense of humor.
Educators and primary school teachers will immediately strengthen their authority with the pupils, in addition, the image on the nails of the characters of modern cartoons will allow you to establish relationships with your own child.

Cartoons are not always fun for toddlers these days. Among the animated films there are many that are recommended only for older children or adults, for example, "Shrek", "The Simpsons", "King of the Hill" and others.
The advantage of a cartoon manicure is the ability to stand out from the crowd. It is unlikely that a woman with cartoon characters on her nails will accidentally meet another lady with the same design. Among the cartoon characters, you can choose your favorite character, or you can try to do a manicure with the most popular cartoons.

By the way, this is a great option for those who are in business. Attachment to cartoons is widely used in this area, favorite characters decorate entire product lines. Such a design is also relevant for developers of online games, where a lot of variations on the theme of the travel of cartoons are also created.
You can also time a cartoon manicure for a specific occasion. For example, going to a children's birthday, you can depict Batman or the Winx fairy on your nails, depending on the gender of the birthday person. A great reason to make cartoon nails is Children's Day. In the New Year, a cheerful design will add even more celebration to the home atmosphere.
For example, in the Year of the Pig, in honor of this event, you can depict Peppa Pig on your nails. Even Valentine's Day can be celebrated with cartoons on the nails, for example, draw lovers Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

Design ideas
There are many options for such a design. Let's dwell on the most original ideas.
An interesting option is the image of Alice from Wonderland. Only an art master can draw characters by hand, but you can easily pick up stickers in online stores. You can depict Alice on one finger, and cover all the other nails with a neutral color, or schematically draw White Rabbits or the smiles of the Cheshire Cat. Another option is the image on each nail of a separate character in the work.

For a trip to a children's party or a costume party, you can pick up an image of a heroic character.
Spiderman, Batman, Superman - there are many options. By the way, it's pretty easy to draw them by hand. For example, instead of Superman himself, you can paint his famous "S" logo on a blue background. If this is Spider-Man, then one of the options is the image of his face, covered with a spider web, with white glades of eyes. The rest of the nails can also be covered with a net. In the case of Batman, his rather simple sketchy logo will help out again.

For a light romantic young girl, a manicure with fairies is suitable. It can be the famous Wings fairies, each of which can be placed on a separate nail, or it can be Peter Pan's famous Tinker Bell. For example, the black silhouette of a gentle Tinker Bell on a white coating is very beautiful. On one nail, she can blow away stardust, on the second - to direct the magic wand, on the third - to enjoy the flight, and so on.

Another option for gentle, dreamy young ladies is princess design. Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Aurora and many other princesses will add a share of romance and sweet childish naivety to the image of a young lady. Even Aladdin's faithful companion Jasmine will do. But you need to be careful with flamboyant princesses so that the design doesn't look clumsy. It is better to place the princess on only one nail, and decorate the rest with accessories - using sequins and rhinestones to depict beads, bracelets and other accessories of a cartoon princess.
And also as the design of the rest of the nails, an image of a specific attribute for this character is suitable. If this is Cinderella, then on the rest of the nails you can draw a shoe, if Snow White, then an apple, and so on.

The nails on which the bears are painted look fun, beautiful and original. For a young dreamer, cute Teddy bears are suitable, for a woman who wants to please her child, the image of the famous Bear and his friend Masha is suitable. Another interesting option is Winnie the Pooh. By the way, in the field of nail art, both domestic and Disney bear are popular. The Russian Winnie the Pooh is easier to portray. For example, on one finger we draw his face, and on all the others - the traces of his paws. You can draw a bear schematically, the silhouette of Winnie the Pooh flying on a ball looks original.
When using the American "brother" in the design, it is better to use stickers.

In preparation for the upcoming New Years celebration, you can also use cartoon characters. We have already mentioned Peppa Pig. Of the cartoon pigs, you can still remember Funtik and Piglet. Here are a few more options for New Year's design: the funny snowman Olaf from the cartoon "Frozen", the embarrassed red-nosed deer Rudolph, the cheerful Nutcracker, the grinning Grinch.

The design of nails in the style of Marvel looks very original. Batman and Spider-Man have already been mentioned above, but the manicure depicting superheroes from the "Avengers" team deserves special attention. Ant-Man, Thor and the Hulk will look great on the nails of the modern lady who loves comics.
Nowadays, many parties are held with themed overtones, weddings and birthdays in the Marvel style no longer surprise anyone, and the superhero Avengers depicted on the nails will perfectly complement the heroic cartoon image of the guest.

Another popular design option is the image of the characters from The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad. Such a manicure is also suitable for both young ladies and older ladies. An embarrassed Lisa Simpson will emphasize the mystery of the owner of this unusual design, and Brian Griffin will indicate a good sense of humor. The most daring ladies will not be afraid to use even the vulgar heroes of South Park.

Methods of creation
There are quite a few options for applying such a design to nails, we will consider the most popular ones.
Painting
This is the most time-consuming option for drawing a cartoon, however, it also looks very bright, fun, original. In addition, you can choose the simplest drawing. For example, Minions. It is not necessary to draw the whole character, you can simply paint over the nail in yellow, indicating the famous eye of this cartoon character. Let's try to figure out how to create such a design step by step.
- Prepare nails for manicure in the standard way. You can use the European method. When the nails are ready, cover them with a base.
- Next, we apply yellow varnish to the nail plates. It is better to perform two layers at once so that the color is more vibrant and noticeable.
- Now we take a blue varnish and make a blue strip with it along the tip of the nail, like a jacket. It is better to do two layers at once again. The line itself should be straight, and not along the contour of the nail, if, for example, these are almond-shaped nails. The most successful design option is square nails.

- With a black lacquer liner, draw two lines on the sides towards each other. With gray varnish and using dots in the center between these features, draw a minion's eye. You can also make a drawing by hand.
- Now paint a smile with black varnish using a thin brush. There is nothing complicated - in fact, this is an ordinary parenthesis.

- At this time, the gray base of the eye has already dried up, so we add a white drop to its center, and when it dries up, we put a black dot - the pupil.
- We put a top on the finished drawing.
- It is better to apply the design on only one nail, the rest can be done with a yellow-blue French manicure.

Sliders and Stickers
Applying a design to the nail using a slider or sticker is an easier option, but here, too, you need to follow some rules. When making designs on nails using cartoon stickers, heed the recommendations of experts.
- The safest method of applying the sticker is on undried varnish. To do this, you can smooth out the selected slider with a special brush, so that the structure will not break and lie flat. Thanks to this brush, bubbles or waves are not formed under the coating. The surface is dried along with the sticker, and therefore such a manicure, due to its strong tenacity, is worn for quite a long time. One finishing top will increase durability.
- The next option is to apply a slider to the top coat. It is very easy, convenient and fast. The sticker is attached to the finishing base, then smoothed with a bamboo stick and covered on top with another layer of top.It is very important to take into account that the decor structure does not extend beyond the side bolsters.
- The last way to apply the sticker is to attach it to the finished manicure. This option is good because it is a real salvation in situations when you need to attend an event, and an appointment with the master is impossible. Sliders will allow you to update an already finished, but slightly neglected manicure. Minions decals will, in fact, look good on any surface, but plain or french is the preferred option. In this case, the stickers are attached to an acid-free primer. Top coat will allow you to consolidate the result.
