Christmas nails are all about snowflakes, Santa Clauses, deer, snowballs and gift bows. But what if you don’t want your nails that way? If you don’t fancy all those ornaments and bows on your nails, why not try something different that will stand out and still add a festive look and feel. Today I found some unique nail art ideas for those who want something unexpected and a bit dazzling.
Accents
Red is very traditional for all types of Christmas decorations, looks, and of course, nails. Forget the red and make an emerald! This is another traditional shade, but not as hacky as red. Take an emerald manicure and accentuate just one nail with gold glitter or emerald sequins. The nice thing about such nails is that you can still wear them after Christmas. French manicure is always on top so you can rock it too, but with a cable knit accent nail. Navy and black aren’t your usual Christmas colors, so rock them to make an impression and add a glittery Christmas tree accent nail.
Sparkle
Glitter will always be on trend, especially for winter or winter holidays. Take a neutral manicure, then color it up a little with gold or silver glitter, or with red and emerald green sequins on the tips. Rock glitter accented nails and rhinestones on each finger, don’t be afraid to shine!
Other ideas
Here you can see one of the latest trends – cable knit sweater nails or patterns and stickers traditional for sweaters. Black and white are classics, but not for Christmas, so this combination will stand out. We offer making black nails with white patterns or white nails with some winter inspired patterns. Enjoy!
