Top Summer Nail Trends For Short Nails

The majority of people who are looking to revitalise their nails in Wembley come with fairly long nails or are looking for press-on manicures to give themselves a striking and distinctive look.

However, some people either do not want to have the hassle of maintaining longer nails or need to keep them short for practical reasons. 

This does not mean you cannot have an incredible nail manicure or indulge in nail art, but it does mean that the types of looks that would suit your shorter nails might differ.

Here are some top trends to try.

Metallic Nails

One route to take is to go all out with the relatively limited nail space you have, and chrome nails will always stand out no matter what other routes you go with your style.

Because of the way they hit the light, metallic shades without too many busy details can create the illusion of length as well, and because of the nature of short nails, often can last longer without needing to be topped up.

Always Bet on Red

No matter how long your nails are, a vivid red shade is a consistent summer vibe, and there is a reason why regardless of nail length or other fashion choices, red always seems to work.

This is even more so the case in 2023 when many nail trends have become more muted and so a vivid red will stand out and make a big impression even if your nails are not that big.

Don’t Be Afraid of Detail

Some nail experts are wary of using rhinestones or more elaborate nail designs on shorter nails, but there is no reason to avoid ornate designs on shorter nails.

In fact, because they take up a relatively larger proportion of the nail surface, a nail effect complements an overall look better and can look more subtle.
