In fact, the most classy nail designs are short nails many a times. But when we search through nail art design in a book, brochure or online, we mostly find designs that are modelled on long nails. And simple nail polish is the only option you are left with most of the time.
Thankfully, we have come up with some creative yet simple and classy nail art designs for your short nails.
Gold strings:
Thin vertical gold lines on your nude nails can be a good idea if you want something unique and fancy. It looks very dope and it’s quite the opposite of extravagant. Usually fancy and glittery nail designs are very over whelming. But this one is on the elegant side. Use tape to draw a perfect thin line on each nail. The positioning of the line can be metered in the center of the nail or at either of one side.
Negative space:
Use bright colors like blue, yellow, pink, white to paint very simple patterns on naked nails. It is less time taking yet creative design you’ll surely love. To make the nail art pop, use a finishing coat of transparent shinny polish.
Reverse French:
Reverse French manicures are not just for long nails. Try it on your short nails with soft colored base coat. Add a crescent shaped line of glitter along the cuticle for a bold take.
