Nail Styles

Painted nails can be considered an addition to any outfit that can compliment the style and colour pallet of your look. Eye catching nail art is a sure way to make a statement and draw welcome attention to you. 

The first consideration is the shape of your nails. Following the nationwide lockdown in 2020, people tended towards lower maintenance, shorter and more natural nails, this trend is expected to continue into 2021. Once restrictions are lifted however, it’s expected people will be more willing to spend time on their appearance and nails so you can expect to see nail extensions and shaped nails more frequently. 

As people pick up their busy schedules again, it’s expected people will opt for shorter to mid length nails as opposed to long nail extensions. Often extensions are difficult to maintain so people will look to have their natural nails but change up the colours to keep the look fresh. 

A style proving popular is different patterns on the nail. This creates a textured look on the nail and requires skill and time for application. You can keep the design simple and chic or get experimental with more complex designs. A trend to look out for is simple geometric that provides an understated yet modern look to the nail. 

As well as trying different patterns on your nails, the colours you can choose are endless. This can seem daunting, here’s some of our recommendations for current trending nail colours. Pastel and nude shares continue to be popular; their muted tones are excellent for everyday wear and often match the rest of your outfit. As people head back into the office after working from home for an extended period of time, a natural look with nude tones and simple manicures are expected to be popular. For a bolder look, emerald green and deep blue shades are a great choice, these colours are also good to pair with metallic shades. 

It’s noted that as we move into the summer months, especially with the likelihood that festivals will be on the cards, it’s expected people will tend towards bold colours to make a statement at festivals. Bold colours can be considered a celebration of summer which can be demonstrated through bold nail art. 

Nail Products

With the growth of veganism, it’s no surprise many consumers are now actively seeking vegan and cruelty free nail products. Following fast moving trends and a wide variety of styles to choose, nail art lovers seek for quicker ways to apply and remove nail varnish from their nails. A solution to this is quick dip nail powders that dry much quicker than regular nail varnish. 

Consumers are keen for high quality nail products that will last the length of time desired and can also deal with frequent hand washing. It can be tempting to go for cheaper nail products; however consumers are realising if you pay a slightly higher price, the quality of the product significantly increases. This trend has been established by people trying to recreate salon standard nails at home over the lockdown period. 

Due to some people getting more experimental during lockdown, the growth of nail art kits is evident. These products allow you to easily apply more complex nail art at home. 

Finding Inspiration

Trend setters on social media, particularly Instagram, are huge sources of inspiration for many nail art lovers. With the ability to search hashtags and styles, users can quickly find images of different nail art that suits the look they are going for.
