To date, there are no clear rules for each season in the form of nails, the boundaries are rather blurred. This earlier form of marigolds constantly changed from season to season, in strict accordance with the fashion and trends of the season. Today the main thing is that the manicure matches the created image to the maximum, reflects your style and emphasizes the individuality. For this you only need to choose the shape of the nails.
Square nails.
Now these nails are very popular, if they are of the right square shape. They are good in that they are ideally suited to the French manicure classics, as well as such nails - a space for creativity. The maximum area provided by this form attracts a lot of attention. Square nails are good for medium to long nails and long nails. Regularly you need to give the nails a smooth outline, the only thing is to be very careful not to cut excess. File your nails neatly with a nail file a week two or three times, that's how the nail art masters recommend it. If you have nails gel or acrylic, then it is somewhat easier to handle them.
Round nails.
Many people like to call this form of old-fashioned nails or "old fashion", however, many of today's girls use it. This is a great solution when you need to keep your nails in short condition, especially if they are weakened and grow poorly. However, in order to create a smooth ideal semicircle, you will have to try very hard.
Square nails, with a top in the form of a semicircle.
These nails are a kind of mix of the two forms described above. The only difference with round nails is that the technique of giving this shape is slightly different, although outwardly these nails look like round ones. This shape can be chosen if you have medium-length nails. To begin with, square outlines are made, after the upper edge is rounded, so that it is not a semicircle, but an arc.
Almond-shaped nails.
Of all the forms that we will mention here, this form is probably the most feminine. It fits well with the French manicure, but the form requires nails of a certain length, moreover, this length can not all be achieved in a natural way. You can create such a shape on your nails, but you should take into account that the nails will quickly break, therefore, it is better to increase them with acrylic or gel.
Oval nails.
The shape of these nails is similar to both round and almond-shaped, the main principle for filing is that it will be necessary to create exactly the line of the base of the nail, the same, but in a mirror image, so the right oval will turn out. With this form, the nails look exceptionally harmonious and well-groomed, this is an excellent option for those who do not want to resort to building up, but do not mind spending time creating the perfect shape by filing marigolds. This form is undesirable to do, if short nails, it is better to create it on long and medium nails.
Fantasy nails.
Many ladies use modern technologies used in nail design, these technologies can create a miracle with any nails. There are practically no restrictions on the form here, the most basic here is the presence of idea and meaning, and you can not limit your imagination! Depending on your ideas, you can make yourself nails of completely different shapes, even 3 D-building.
Sharp nails.
Few people decide on a similar manicure as everyday. Nails are pointed to the angle of the nail plate, long and very sharp. This manicure - a hit of our days, is called "stiletto", or "hairpin", they have many drawbacks, but, nevertheless, are very popular. However, such nails are impractical, they are difficult to perform some work. Since these nails require extreme length, they often increase them, because their nails are not enough. If you try to give the natural nails this form, then they quickly break off.
Nails in the form of lipstick.
This form assumes also pointed nails, only they are not as sharp and long as the "hairpins". The minus of this shape and shape of the nail "hairpin" is that according to numerous male surveys it turned out that few of them like it when a woman has pointed nails. Therefore, advice: before making such marigolds, consult your lover. This form is great for natural nails.
