Shaping nails is a very important part of our hands. But not all shapes look good, you have to adapt the shape of our nails to the type of hand that we have.
Tips for choosing your nail shape
- If your fingers are small and your nails are wide, the type of nail that suits you is one that is oval.
- For short and brittle nails, opt for the round shape that guarantees greater resistance.
- Square nails are best suited to fingers that are long and narrow.
When choosing your nail shape you should also pay attention to its hardness. If they break easily, opt for straight shapes that will strengthen the nail. If the nails are strong, but lately the weakest notes, pay attention to your type of diet and start taking care of it. Also use specific products to harden them.
Types of shapes on your nails
Oval Nails
To create an oval nail, the first thing you have to do is give it straight on the sides, until both sides are exactly the same. File nails in one direction to avoid splitting. To give it the oval shape, start from the side towards the tip of the nail, giving it a rounded movement to create the oval shape.
Square Nails
As in the previous one, the main thing is to give it a straight shape on the sides. Following round the corners of the nails with a file a little so that they do not remain sharp and in this way soften the corners so that they are not totally square and pointed. Make the sides completely even and straight, and then make the corners completely square with the file.
Round nails
To do this type of nails, you must let them grow a little until it allows you to round the nail. Start on one side of the nail with a rounded motion to smooth the edges, and continue this motion to the central area of the nail.
