These are the 12 trendy nail designs that are going to be seen everywhere! These designs are sure to make you feel the absolute cutest, and you’re bound to get a bunch of questions about them. These are some nail designs that will have you feeling and looking your best. When it comes to nails, every girl wants to express herself through them. They act as an accessory, as a representation of who you are. 

1. The New French Mani

This has been all the rage lately. Taking a classic French manicure and bringing a little twist to it. It’s been seen on the runway and every girl is now rocking this style! Instead of the French white at the top being curved with your nail shape, this French manicure has the white part concave inward. It gives it a more modern feel to it.

2. Ombre Nails

Ombre Nails have been seen almost everywhere with it gaining more and more popularity. It’s classic gradient effect looks so aesthetically pleasing whether it’s on gel nails, or on stilettos. It’s a look that doesn’t seem to go out of style. Whether you stick to a simple pink and white ombre, or you decide to take some neon colors and express yourself, the diffusion of the two colors leavings a very clean sophisticated look. 

3. Picasso Nails

This nail design takes inspiration from Picasso’s abstract art. It takes one hell of a good nail artist to be able to replicate designs like this, but it’s worth the time spent in that chair because these nails grab everyone’s attention. Your hand is going to look like it belongs in a museum. You can chose to do any abstract art you desire, it doesn’t just have to be faces. It can range from flowers and scenery to people like in the nails below 

4. Water-color Tie Dye Nails

These nail designs sometimes gain popularity after a celebrity is seen wearing them. That was exactly the case with these watercolor tie dye nails. Kyle Jenner posted a picture rocking this look, and more and more people are knowing beginning to rock it as well. These tie dye nails don’t have to be done only with neon colors, however. If you want to get into the winter/fall seasonal theme, you can do it with darker colors or get into more a rustic vibe with some burnt oranges and reds. 

5. Neon Stars

Another look inspired by Kylie Jenner, the addition of encapsulated stars within acrylic nails seems have taken with younger girls. It promotes a youthful yet fun aesthetic, and is seen as self-expression through nails . For a more fall/winter look, instead of having neon stars, you can just place white stars and it would have the same youthful effect. 

6. Animal Print Nails

It’s no surprise animal print nails are in, when animal print has been seen in every aspect of fashion this year. We have animal prints ranging from shoes, to jeans, all the way to scrunchies. Animal prints have been in for a while and they don’t seem to be going anywhere, anytime soon. No one’s complaining though because it’s such a cute way to spice up an outfit, or in general make a statement.

7. Chromatic Nails

Chromatic nails are one of those nail designs that live past the summer. Everyone aspires to match their nails up with the seasons, but sometimes you just have to break the rules a little, and that’s when chromatic nails come out to play. It gives off a very grunge hipster vibe that I can see paired up perfectly with a leather jacket on a night out. 

8. Watercolor Paint Strokes

If maybe full out Picasso is too much for you, then these adorable watercolor paint strokes are bound to catch your eye. If you’re an artsy creative person, these nails would be perfect at accurately capturing your personality. With a variety of colors to choose from to make the paint strokes in, you could make this look a very simple one with some nudes, or go full out with some vivid neon. Whatever you decide to do, the avant grande aspect to it will remain and intrigue others.

10. Reverse French Mani

Like the New French Mani, the Reverse French Mani is for those girls who like to take the rules and break them. It’s a way to let people know you’re not conventional, and you’re not afraid to make a statement either. This can still be extremely classic at the same time however, still keeping that very graceful feel to it. 

11. Mixed Metal Nails

Mixed Metal Nails take in gold or silver foil and incorporate them into the nail by encapsulating them into the acrylic nail. However, you can also get that mixed metal nail by putting on a bunch of gold or silver gems. All of this combined makes it seem like you dipped your nails in gold or silver. It’s bound to catch people’s attentions and inspire others to go and get that design.
