Fashion trends 2021
Any manicure that will be done this year must meet two main requirements - to be simple and natural. At the same time, your nails should not seem boring!
Moderation should be observed in everything - length, color, accessories. Leading fashion houses unanimously suggested that women in 2021 adhere to the following views on nail design:
- The shape - almond or oval will become a symbol of femininity and elegance. Soft lines without protruding parts, naturally rounded, comfortable nails in 2021 have irrevocably replaced sharp and spade-shaped shapes.
- Length - the fashion has come for short and medium lengths. Nails should protrude no more than 3-4 mm. They are laconic, gentle, slightly naive, but at the same time great for creating trendy manicures in various styles and for any life situations.
- Texture - in modern ideas, matte and shine are used independently or organically complement each other. The main thing is not to overdo it with glamor.
- Color - white, red, gray, blue, azure, violet, light blue or black are chosen as a base, accent or complement. Gold or silver makes a manicure chic and expensive.
- Design - drawings, geometric patterns, waves, ombre are widely used: a smooth transition from one shade to another within the color.
- Accessories - rhinestones, beads, sparkles, sequins, stones remain relevant.
- Materials - gel coating, shellac and extended nails are no less popular than regular polish.
Attention! The manicure should not seem predatory, flashy, too extravagant or provocative.
New items for the season
One of the fashionable new items for the spring-summer 2021 season is space manicure. Elements such as stars, shimmering “northern lights” and various “nebulas” on nails were also seen in previous seasons, but this year “space” on nails is mega popular. This manicure option is recommended for strong and stylish women who are not afraid to make drastic changes in their image and in their lives. Having decided on a cosmic manicure, it is important to understand that it must be in harmony with the entire image, elements of the wardrobe and the character of the hostess.
The technique of creating space nail design in 2021 will be incredibly popular among young people. It involves applying shades of red, purple and blue nail polish, as well as glitter of different sizes. The glossy shine of the polish fixing agent will help make your manicure mysterious and especially attractive.
“Sandy”, which is gaining more and more popularity, was liked by socialites. While most women prefer to stay away from him. The essence of this 2016 nail design is to cover the nail plate with a layer of base varnish and then “fill it” with small particles - grains of sand, grains or balls. The color scheme of sand manicure depends only on the imagination of the master and the client.
Another new product is a thermovarnish that can change its color as the ambient temperature changes. This manicure looks very original and bold; others get the impression that you can expect anything from its owner.
Those girls who like everything original will definitely like the fashionable spring-summer 2021 manicure, which is called “frame”. It looks very stylish and laconic. It is done quite simply: first, the color of the varnish is applied to the nail, which will act as a frame in two layers. When finished, a stencil is glued around the perimeter of the nail plate and the main varnish is applied in the middle. Experienced manicurists can make a frame in a different way: apply two layers of base polish and use a thin brush to draw a frame.
Autumn time is a charm for the eyes...
Much attention this fall is paid to the color scheme that is used to create a manicure. Beautiful nails will be truly charming if you choose the following colors and shades as a coating:
- white - all tones are used, from matte to pearl; an airy image is created, which can become a little provocative if you choose an ivory shade
- gray is the most fashionable color this fall, especially ash or pearl gray
- red - all shades are relevant
- blue - one of the most trendy colors of spring manicure does not lose its position in autumn, is widely used with white, complemented with rhinestones
- blue - brings mystery, suitable for any life situations
- purple - characterized by calmness and depth, chosen to create romantic and light images
- azure - the entire palette of this color is used, including turquoise, indigo, sapphire
- black - chosen to create a manicure in the Gothic style, is a background or accent, goes well with stones or shiny patterns.
Advice: if you have any doubts about what tone to choose for your manicure this fall, then pay attention to nature - the sky, foliage, grass, water, flowers, berries will prompt the right decision.
Fall 2021 brought several interesting new products to nail design, which can be seen in the photo. One of them is the trendy trend of painting all nails in different colors. The main thing is that the shades combine harmoniously with each other.

French manicure: autumn experiments
French will never go out of style. It will only change, but its essence remains the same - brevity, nobility, plus an unimaginable flight of fantasy. And if a classic French manicure only involves highlighting the tip of the nail in white against a background of a pastel-colored surface, then in the fall and winter of 2021 the French manicure will take on a new face:
- The design is applied not only to the “smile line”, but also to the entire nail plate, and you can select one finger or all of them at once. Geometric, cosmic, cubic patterns, mosaics, waves, which are easily made independently at home, stripes, lines, zigzags, as well as their combinations, are relevant.
- Bright accents based on trendy colors are relevant. You can liven up your manicure with the help of colored spots, single large stones or beads, as well as scattering a lot of small rhinestones on the nail. Accessories are placed not only chaotically, but also in the form of a pattern or pattern - circle, heart, wave, zigzag.
- The smile line is made in the form of a triangle, heart, wave.
- The tip of the nail is painted not only white, but also any other color, for example, red - oddly enough, it will add romance to the image. Even black color will do - a thin strip along the edge of the nail will complement gold painting or ombre.
- A fashionable French manicure is created using varnish with gold or silver sparkles, which is applied to the white crescent area - a lunar manicure.
“For French manicure, not only shiny varnish is used, but also a matte finish, and a thoughtful combination of two textures is one of the most popular this year”

Nail design trends 2021
With every new season, new nail design ideas appear, but old trends do not all disappear. So, designs on nails, patterns and decorative elements are already a tradition. Geometric shapes, patterns in the form of a cage (see photo), squares or triangles are quite in demand.
The frames are very impressive. The center of the composition is occupied by one tone of varnish. And along the contour of the nails they are highlighted in a contrasting tone.
It is very important to use one varnish. It turns out stylish and neat. The organic completion of the design is a pair of nails, highlighted by other tones of varnish. The image looks creative and restrained at the same time.
And for summer, the options are both bright and luxurious. Fully consistent with the stylish trends of modern summer nail fashion. The designers suggested combining a bright and bold manicure with massive nail decor, using nail art and a partial manicure.
Stripes are fashionable and stylish. A blue tone with a white stripe is in great demand. The nautical theme goes elegantly with any striped outfits for the summer. And a lunar manicure is suitable for any clothing. The current design is a matte black lacquer on the plate and a shiny silver lunula.
Charlotte Ronson offered her version of Half Moon Nails. Part of the nail is not painted. Only the hole at the base of the nail is covered with varnish. The accent is the pink surface of a healthy nail and the silvery lunar line at its base.
Bright and catchy designs with shocking patterns will suit young ladies. They go well with sundresses, suits and dresses.
For a geometric design, at least three tones of varnish will be required. Harmonious combination - beige-black-white. For several seasons, this idea of a geometric print remains relevant.
The crescent on the side of the marigold is a side french. This is also an option that is stylish, aesthetic, and beautiful.
Summer is the time when you want to please yourself with designs on your nails, and so that the design does not remain frozen, changing, adapting to each new outfit. And geometric shapes come in handy here.
But to create a neat and effective manicure, you need a highly qualified master. He will be able to choose a luxurious option and perform it at the highest level. After all, success both in work and in personal life largely depends on implementation. It’s nice to admire well-groomed nails, and not to contemplate the sad lack of even a semblance of care.
How to celebrate the Year of the Fire Rooster
The New Year is one of the few reasons when you need to move away from the main principles of 2021 - simplicity and naturalness. Festive nail art allows for any experiments with patterns, colors, decorations, and styles.
Preference is given to red tones, but it is possible to use other bright shades - yellow, blue, green, black, gold. In combination with white or beige, they will create the necessary contrast and add brightness and fun to the holiday.
For New Year's manicure 2021, you can use the following ideas:
- Designs on nails - snowflakes, red-white-green stripes, deer, ornaments, Christmas trees, decorations and, of course, the very symbol of the coming year, the Rooster, are suitable. Artwork can be complemented with accessories - rhinestones, sequins, beads, sparkles.
- Lunar manicure - the use of classic colors in combination with black, gold, and silver will add solemnity and brightness.
- Chalet style - you can choose if you plan to celebrate the holiday outside the city with your family. The patterns applied to the nails will be in tune with the New Year's celebration. A beautiful manicure will turn out with a knitted or geometric pattern, as well as if you use warm tones of brown. Red, blue, green colors will organically fit into the chalet style.
- Holographic motifs will add something unusual.
These best New Year's projects will help you decide on your holiday design in advance.
How to paint your nails correctly?
From many manicure professionals you can hear the following phrase: “If the varnish applied to your nails by a master lasts less than five days, change the artist immediately.” The thing is that modern materials and tools allow you to create a truly perfect manicure, and the coating is very durable. The most important thing is to use them correctly.
To perform a manicure yourself at home correctly and get a long-lasting coating, professionals recommend following a certain algorithm of actions:
- First, high-quality, thorough cleaning and polishing of nails is carried out;
- then they are degreased using a special product or regular nail polish remover;
- apply the varnish base and dry for two to three minutes;
- then two layers of varnish are applied, each of which must dry well for 5 minutes;
- Finally, a fixative is applied, i.e. a topcoat that will ensure durability of the manicure.
After completing the procedure, you need to forget about any manipulation with your hands for at least 30 minutes. This will keep the varnish in perfect condition and dry it completely. It is also very important when choosing the color of the varnish to pay attention to its expiration date, because low-quality and expired varnish will not last long.

Which coating to choose
Regular polish, gel, shellac or extended nails - what to choose in 2021? All options are acceptable, but each of them has its own application, removal, and design features:
- Varnish - quickly applied, easy to remove, suitable for creating any designs, but does not last long. This manicure needs to be renewed after 3-4 days.
- Gel polish or shilak are used for more “durable” nail art - these coatings are an excellent option for the New Year holidays: the holiday feeling will last up to 3 weeks. During the year, you should choose more discreet designs, because in a couple of weeks any situation can happen, and the manicure should correspond to any of them. If the rhythm of life changes too often, then it is better to replace the gel with regular varnish, which can be removed or applied at home at any time.
- Extended nails are acceptable in 2021, provided they are as natural as possible. The main trends are volumetricity and the presence of artistic painting. The extension technique is not too complicated to perform and does an excellent job with the aesthetic side of the matter. Gel nails look organic and natural with short or medium length, and naturalness is the main trend of the season.
FASHIONABLE SHADES OF VARNISH SPRING-SUMMER 2021 PHOTO
Manicure spring-summer 2021 - fashion trends and photos indicate that bright and rich colors, rich and saturated shades are in fashion. You probably remember that according to the most professional color institute Pantone, this season the following shades are in fashion: cypress, royal blue, sparkling cobalt, aluminum, mystical yellow, lilac mist, sangria, brilliant orchid, cognac color and a shade of red - red dawn But this season’s super trend is to match the color of your nails to the color of your dress (handbag, shoes, etc.).
Summing up
In 2021, manicure should be elegant, natural, natural. The ideal length is medium or short nails with an oval or almond shape.
Despite the fact that the nail plates are not supposed to be long, there are many options for decorating them.
French manicure, matte or shiny surfaces, bright colors or pastel shades, designs, accessories, regular polish, shellac, extended nails - any option is suitable for 2021. You only need to avoid overly pretentious designs, as well as provocatively designed, overly long and spade-shaped nails.

Fashionable shape and length of nails in 2021
We can say that the shape and length of nails in the new year can be any. Both short and long nails are relevant: with a straight top, rounded, pointed . Extension technologies can, in a couple of hours, transform a girl with “bits” into the owner of luxurious long nails with a unique design. It all depends on your taste and needs. It is unlikely that a small child or an office dress code will force a woman to have bright, two-centimeter nails. But a fashionable student, blogger, model can easily afford these.
On short nails, dark colors, nude colors with a discreet design, and moon manicure in pastel colors look good. Or, conversely, bright, acidic shades. Classic reds don't look too good on very short nails.
Almost anything suits long nails. My only advice is don’t overdo it. Women over 40 are better off using a more restrained palette and not experimenting with super lengths and bright colors.

Nail Design Ideas
For short nails that are fashionable this year, the design with gel polish should be simple and concise. Too large or too small designs will look unfavorable on neat and short nail plates. If your nails are very short, it makes sense to give preference to vertical patterns.
Creating a manicure with gel polish in the style of nail art requires knowledge of certain nuances. For example, decorating nail plates with a beautiful design is done using dry pigments or varnish-liners. Shellac itself is applied on top of the finished image.
In general, the current trends of the new season in the framework of gel polish nail design make it possible to boldly fantasize, create unusual images, play with colors, choosing the most successful option for a vacation in the south, for a fashionable party, and for work in the office. And a fashionable natural color coating will be a universal option that goes well with any outfit and makeup. But do not forget that the ideal manicure with shellac, first of all, depends on the quality of the gel polish itself. Therefore, when creating such a beautiful nail design yourself, give preference only to proven brands, without being tempted by cheap products of unknown origin. These nail design ideas are suitable for both amateurs and professionals.
Long nails
Moderately long nails are a classic of manicure art. Their shape can vary from square to rounded, which is so fashionable in the coming season. Stilettos are not relevant, one might even say that this sharp model has become an indicator of bad taste. You can paint long nails in any color and use different designs. Try to avoid using too much glitter, highlight one nail or the ends with it. Long nails can greatly visually lengthen your fingers. Therefore, if you are not happy with the latter, grow or extend beautiful, moderately long nails. In the fight for natural nails, you will be helped by products designed to maintain the integrity of the nail plate, vitamins and a healthy diet.
