The almond shape of the nail plate is represented by a combination of a triangle and an oval, where the lateral edge of the nail tends to the center. Such lines are considered relaxed. For women with almond-shaped nails, stylists do not recommend a classic jacket. Despite the streamlined ideal shapes, finding an attractive manicure can be difficult.
Features of the combination of form and design
The classic rich white color visually enlarges the base of the nail plate, and the "smile" line will also not look very harmonious with a straight cuticle.
If a girl has such features of the nail plates, then you should pay attention to the ombre jacket. When creating a manicure, the transition can be replaced with a pattern or lace. The blurred line will smooth out the shapes and look more organic. Additional sparkles, scattered at an unnecessarily wide base, add grace and distract from this shortcoming.
Brave people have a weakness for clear lines and sharp transitions. On the almond-shaped nails, such a manicure looks rough. It is important to dilute angular shapes with smooth lines. A fashionable solution is a French manicure with red color. According to the masters, the aggressive idea of a jacket will suit girls with wide nail plates at the base, visually narrowing them.
The combination looks interesting on almond-shaped nails, where the “smile” line is highlighted with calm tones of varnish or dark varnish.
Lunar
The variation of the moon jacket is presented by a combined design, where two "smiles" are depicted at the base and tip of the nail. The symbol of the "moon", depicted at the base of the nail, visually stretches its shape. The most effective idea is to combine contrasting shades.
Various decorative solutions are used to design a moon jacket. When working with a design, craftsmen decorate the moon with sparkles, rhinestones or bright varnish. It is important to follow the rule - the size and shape of the "smile" at the base should repeat the lines at the tips of the nails. Otherwise, the impression will be created that the nail plate is too wide.
French on almond-shaped nails will be successful if the boundaries of the "smile" are conditionally highlighted.
This combination gives a lot of advantages:
- there is no need to repeat the exact outline of the lunula in the "" smile "on the tips of the nails;
- the stylist's work on design creation is accelerated;
- manicure looks neat for a long time.
Back
French on almond-shaped nails in reverse design is a good combination. The manicure is presented in a smooth shape that repeats the cuticle line. It is not possible to get a beautiful contour in all cases. For women with a straight cuticle line, masters are advised to use rhinestones or low-contrast varnish. This will distract attention from the angular shapes and give the shape a visual softness.
There is one more nuance - the higher the corners of the "smile" rise, the more graceful the nail plates seem.
If there is a desire to apply contouring - manicure technology, when the central area of the nail is highlighted with a bright pigment, then the shade of the jacket should be lighter.Otherwise, French manicure will visually shorten the "almond" shape.
Combined
The most complex but impressive French manicure is a combined jacket. It happens that it is quite difficult to recognize him on the "almond". The specialist presents the variation of "smile" with a thin line at the tip of the nail and at its base.
In the design of outlines, decorative ornament, lace or sequins, and floral solutions are used. Several techniques can be used at once. Such work is difficult to perform and only real specialists can do it.
Geometric French
An almond-shaped french on nails with a geometric pattern and its neat shapes in a minimalist style is relevant in any season. Geometric prints go well with a dark, colored or white jacket. The image of the drawing can be applied manually by drawing out three-dimensional figures or using stencils.
But it takes a lot of preparation to create a beautiful geometric design with your own hands. Geometric themes are very broad. To obtain elegant prints, preference should be given to elongated figures - triangles, rhombuses. Drawings can be made in pastel colors or, conversely, in contrasting colors.
With stones
Designer stones will add exclusivity and special chic to your manicure. After processing the nail plate, special glue should be applied to it in the area where the stone will be attached. One side of the decoration is faceted, and the other is flat.
It is important not to glue the part of the nail where the jewelry will be missing with glue.
To get a neat manicure, you must follow the rules:
- The varnish is applied to the nail in a thin layer.
- The stone should be in harmony with the manicure in size.
- A toothpick is used to attach the stone.
- It is not recommended to apply strong pressure on the decoration when gluing.
- It is important to apply a fixing varnish over the decor.
With tastefully selected decorations, the manicure will look graceful and the hands are well-groomed.
Floral pattern
Almond-shaped nails can also be decorated with a floral image. In this case, a fashionable print is drawn on one or two nail plates. Often the ring finger is distinguished with a large flower, and the middle one is decorated with smaller images.
A bright and bold solution is to depict small flowers on all nails. On the "almond" the masters skillfully paint roses with bright varnishes based on pastel colors. Delicate combination adds femininity and romance to the manicure.
With rhinestones
A special impression is made by the manicure, complemented by rhinestones. With them, nails acquire a luxurious and sophisticated look. To make the French manicure look elegant and neat, it is recommended to refuse large rhinestones.... Small decorative blotches make the manicure more stylish and seductive.
Rhinestones can be laid out according to various schemes: at the base or at the tip of the nail plate, in the central part or on the side, wavy or dotted. But the main thing is that the decor is securely attached. Then the manicure will remain in its original form after doing any homework.
New Year
To create a New Year's manicure, stylists traditionally use white, blue, green and red colors. When choosing a drawing, the main thing is to observe the New Year theme. The applied images - spruce, snowflakes, gifts, snowmen - can be additionally decorated with sparkles and rhinestones.
Geometry will also be a win-win option on the "almond". By depicting abstract patterns and shapes, you can create a stylish manicure. When applying prints, it is important not to overload the nail plates. It is enough to decorate the little finger and ring finger, and also do not forget about the flickering effect.
Simple French manicure in silver is a noble nail design for a true lady.
You can dilute the overall picture with a small image on the nail of one of the fingers, for example, the ring finger.
Dark design
French on almond-shaped nails in dark colors is conventionally divided by type and technique:
- The tip of the nail is decorated with an elegant pattern, rhinestones or pearls.
- Dark varnish is used for painting without additional decorations and drawings.
- A beveled manicure with an original design is used.
- The dark jacket is complemented by small decorations on the border of the nail.
One of the most interesting and popular options is a manicure with a picture on the ring finger. In this case, the nail plate must be painted in a shade of pastel colors, and the edging must be made in a deep dark color.
Black French manicure with gold on almond-shaped nails is an exquisite combination that will suit both solemn and everyday looks.
In pastel colors
French manicure in pastel colors looks modest, but makes the hands visually more well-groomed. The classic white and pink variation dominates all the combinations. However, if you move away from the usual range, you can get an interesting spring jacket.
Focusing on their own preferences, any combination of shades is chosen as a basis:
- mint - delicate and refined color is attractive, does not require additional decor;
- blue - beautiful azure color symbolizes the feeling of freedom;
- yellow - delicate lemon shade will suit many looks, creating a sense of joy;
- beige - remains fashionable, gives tenderness and accuracy to manicure.
Each of the options will look great on almonds. But you can diversify the design with a vertical ombre, which visually narrows the nail plate. The creation of a rainbow painting is carried out with a sponge, on which lines of shades are applied.
The combination of colors can consist of two or more varnishes. According to the masters, the most advantageous variations are yellow and purple, pink and menthol. The design in pastel colors with sparkles and rhinestones is not inferior in popularity. In this case, the manicure gets brighter and more glamorous.
Aqua design
A complex but effective nail painting job - aqua design. The main feature of such a manicure is the application of a large amount of varnish, where a decorative element is depicted on each of the layers. This technique allows you to achieve a 3D effect. The only drawback of the "aquarium" is the huge load on the nail plate.
It is possible to beat a serious flaw if you grow nails or stick false ones. In the course of creating a design, rhinestones, mother-of-pearl, glitter, floral and other patterns are simultaneously used.
Using special brushes, needles, sticks, the master draws miniature masterpieces.
The result is fascinating, but the work takes a long time. Artistic painting of almond-shaped nails is presented in many variations. Which jacket to choose - classic or extravagant - is a matter of taste. It is important to observe moderation in the placement of decor on the nail and follow the advice of professional nail artisans.
