What are the principles of Gothic glamor in creating a manicure? It's not just that the Goth's hands should be well groomed, and the marigolds are covered in black lacquer. After all, the goal of a manicure is to emphasize the beauty of the hands and the individuality of its owner. With gothic manicure, three forms of nails are most commonly used: neutral soft classical oval, repeating the contour of the finger; extravagant angular, square with nails in the form of a shovel; "Vampire" acute aggressive - a triangle at the end.

Gray is hopelessness, sadness and sadness. Gothic colors can be bright colors: blue - the color of infinity and that. What entails as inaccessible distance of mountains and the blue of the heavens; green - the color of calmness, steadiness and stillness; yellow - the color of joy and light, and sometimes, with his cold tones, blind rabies; violet - the color of sorrow and suffering, humility and mysticism.

Sometimes the color of nails is selected in contrast to the clothes - white nails with black clothes; sometimes - in combination with lipstick, make-up and accessories. The main thing is that the manicure is liked by its owner, therefore its main principle is purely natural: "it goes - it does not go."
