6 Classic Nail Shapes That Never Go Out Of Style

Everyone has unique hands, with different finger lengths and styles, nail bed sizes and shapes, and even skin tones. By reshaping your nails with a manicure, you can refine your hands and make your fingers look longer and more beautiful.

 

Here's the list of 7 popular and classic nail shapes we collected for you. Meanwhile, as a personal care tool expert, KAIGB EAUTY is going to help how to choose the best nail style!

 

 

1. Square Nails


Square-shaped nails are characterized by a "square right angle" on both sides of the fingernails. This shape is perfect for people with long fingers or wide nail beds. The advantage of this shape is that it does not break easily and is easy to maintain, but because the front end is right-angled, girls who love to wear knitwear should be aware that they can easily get tangled with their clothes if they are not careful.

2. Round Nails


If you are a fan of short nails, it is recommended that you get a round shape. Round nails are somewhat similar to square nails, but the edges of the nail follow the nail itself, which is relatively more natural.

3. Oval Nails



Ovals are a great choice for those who want to visually elongate their fingers, but compared to round nails, oval nails are not as supportive and require special care and attention.

4. Squoval Nails



Literally, the squoval shape is a combo of a square nail and an oval nail. Although the shape is square, the front edge of the nail is more rounded and better maintained than an oval. squoval nails work well with any nail art, and they are suitable for both short and long fingers.

5. Almond Nails



Almond nails are similar to oval nails in that they are both slender and feminine. Almond nails have a sharp front end and the whole nail is shaped like an almond, which is how it got its name.

6. Ballerina Nails



The popularity of ballerina nails is thanks to Kylie Jenner as she wears them all the time, this is also a great choice for longer nail lovers. The front end is not pointed but square, so named because it resembles a ballet shoe.
