Red manicure on short nails

The use of red in any shade strongly emphasizes the shape and size of the nail plate. Such work must be done very carefully, otherwise all the imperfections of the hands will be very visible.

• It is recommended to leave 1–2 mm at the top, otherwise trimming to the base will create the effect of wide nails and rough fingers.
• The volumetric design looks unnatural on short nails, so it should be abandoned.
• It is necessary to strive for the same shape and length of the nail plates, using warm baths with oils and herbs to accelerate growth.

For the visual effect of a longer nail, experienced nail technicians step back about 1 mm from each side roller. On short nails, dark shades of red varnish look very impressive, but it is recommended to refuse from a bright red coating.
