Your preferences
This type of nail design is preferred by business women. Indeed, geometric manicure looks very advantageous in the office, at business meetings, and goes well with almost all formal outfits.
The design of geometric manicure entered into trend trends relatively recently and quickly gained popularity among fashionistas and nail art masters.
Now every second visitor to a nail salon draws strict lines and shapes on their nails.
This solution looks very stylish, and the amazing ideas for creating this type of drawing are simple and accessible.
Recommendations from professionals
Masters advise creating geometric designs without the mandatory use of specialized varnishes (shellacs, gels). Regular high-quality coatings will also work.
On nails created with gel or acrylic, such a manicure will last a long time. It is better to pre-coat natural nails with a special strengthening base and then apply a geometric pattern.
Geometric manicure 2021 is not just drawings and beautiful straight lines. Nail art masters always use materials such as stucco, rhinestones, petals, beads, powders, rubs, glitter, sequins, and stones.
It all depends on the complexity of the design, the length of the nails and the color scheme. By the way, this type of manicure looks equally fashionable on short or long nails, of any shape.
Geometry on nails with gel spider web
If you have already made clear geometric designs, try ordering a design made with Spider Gel. After all, this decoration material is very beautiful in geometric manicure. It will not be spoiled by the addition of small sparkles and rhinestones.
Alternatively, you can choose a gold, silver or neon color web for a new-fangled design without decoration. In fact, gossamer is suitable for short and long nails.
Geometric animal designs on nails
Another fashionable version of nail art. As an option, choose a nude, gray or dark base, place on one nail a design made in a graphic black and white style - lines, strokes. Popular images include a cat, unicorn, fox, wolf, hummingbird, swallow, owl, flamingo, abstraction. Examples in the photo.
This stylish accent decoration can be made using:
- stenciling, stamping,
- slider (stickers),
- hand painted.
Geometry on short nails
This nail length remains the most fashionable and popular this year. When designing, you should use a soft or dark color palette, do not overload your manicure with decor, and decorate two to four nails on each hand. Feel free to choose the style and type of geometry from those presented above.
For example, implement a color block, a graphic image of a flower, or large glitter in the form of circles on one nail. What's fashionable.
Watercolor nail design with geometry
Manicurists also show themselves in artistic painting. Which allowed us to highlight another trendy geometric design.
Thus, delicate drawings, abstraction, splashes or hand-drawn ornaments with watercolors look trendy in manicure. If this kind of painting is your thing, then feel free to enjoy the magnificent watercolor designs in the geometry style.
Matte geometry manicure
The matte finish has gained great popularity among fashionistas. Nail stylists create both bold and stunning subtle designs using graphic elements. With the help of them, they make patterns, ornaments or place single geometric shapes on their nails. Often making them noticeable, shiny and necessarily unique. Examples of fashionable manicure for everyday life and holidays in the photo.
Geometric French
French is always perfect, and an exclusive geometric pattern or design of smile lines in this style will ideally complement your manicure. And also, it may sometimes be reasonable to decorate a jacket in this style with sparkles, single rhinestones or a foil print. Stylish decor fits very organically into modern French designs made in the style of nail art geometry.
Black and white graphics
The classic design option is black and white style. It looks laconic, stylish, it can be decorated in different ways and used for any occasion. In manicure, you can use the negative technique, when several nails are painted white and contain a black design, and the rest look the other way around - a black background and white art.

Geometric manicure with rubbing
A fashionable geometry manicure in a more festive design with rubbing will look very interesting. In this version of manicure design, it is better to use a colored rub to highlight one nail, complementing it with a “spider web” design. If you want to create a pleasant shine on all your nails with geometric patterns, then it is more appropriate to use a pearl type of rub on your nails.
Geometric Design Features

Geometry manicure 2021
Stylists are inclined to believe that it is better to perform a “geometry” manicure not with ordinary varnishes, but with materials such as gel polish and shellac. Then such nail art will last a long time and will not lose its good appearance over the entire period of operation. When creating it, the following fashion trends are used:
- geometric manicure with gel polish will be perfectly complemented by rhinestones, modeling, beads and glitter, the number of these elements depends on the complexity of the design;

- designs can be combined with monochrome additions, delicate flowers, curls and patterns.
Geometry manicure for short nails
On short nails, you should not do an overly pompous and intrusive “geometry” manicure. When choosing a design at this length, you should consider the following design variations:
- only one geometric figure on one finger is relevant;
- if lines are used, then there is no need to dilute them with squares or circles;
- a manicure with a geometric pattern for short nails can be complemented by asymmetrical designs that can visually lengthen the nails;
- For shortened lengths, flesh-colored designs are ideal;
- It’s better to use simple images, it could be a triangle, a line in the center of the finger, or several vertical lines that create their own separate pattern inside.
Geometry manicure for long nails
Numerous ideas can be implemented on long nail plates, the most common of which include the following:
- you can select a hole and add colored stripes to it;
- a combination of different triangle options is relevant;
- on long nails you can experiment, create a design using lines and dots, for example, in the form of dominoes;
- a geometric manicure for long nails will look original in the winter variation; the accent of the image can be a traced snowflake;
- The “abstraction” technique is popular, when many points are drawn and connected by lines into a single composition;
- to create spectacular shapes, you can turn to the “clutter” technique, where different shapes are combined or the same ones, but of different sizes;
- for a bright and expressive design, you should turn to the technique of “ethnic drawings”, which uses a wide variety of figures in bright colors;
- to draw high-quality figures, it is worth using high-density varnish in order to clearly highlight the details and not distort the overall appearance of the drawing;
- Contrasting shades are suitable for expressiveness of the design.
Geometric design tool
Geometry experts in manicure recommend using thin brushes and dots for both beginners and nail art lovers, as well as experienced professionals.
Why such tools? Stripes are drawn with brushes, and some lines and figures are connected with dots.
It is advisable for beginning craftsmen to try the simplest forms: segments, long lines. Their thickness depends on the size of the brush. The thinner the tool, the more elegant the lines. You just have to try to make them as even and neat as possible.

In red, everything looks no less bright and stylish, and the black design emphasizes the mystery of the fashionista and gives her charm.
Dark stripes on a light or crisp white background are an excellent solution not only for summer, but also for cloudy autumn or colorful spring. As they say, classics are always in fashion.
Trending trends
From all the variety of geometry in nail art, several groups of designs can be distinguished, which are used most frequently and popularly:
- Minimalism and rather thin lines, arranged in a chaotic manner, at different angles and even with curves.
- Wide stripes.
- Gradient solutions (ombre technique).
Minimalism is in fashion at all times. Making lines in this design is simple, and they look tasteful.
Wide stripes are the latest in nail art fashion. The “path” is decorated with large or small rhinestones and emphasized with lines of silver or golden shades.
Very complex, but also advantageous due to this – gradient geometric design. The technique is not easy, only an experienced master can do it, but over time, a beginner can get the hang of it and apply such solutions.
Geometric design techniques in 2020-2021
Even if you were not able to thoroughly study geometry during your school years, you will definitely be able to master this type of nail art. Here you don’t need to create complex formulas and calculate angles, but just choose your convenient technique (maybe even more than one) for geometric design and use it in practice.
Stripes and graphic lines
Simple single stripes have become a real trend in the nail industry. It would seem like an ordinary strip or line, but there is so much charm in such a design! A popular solution in 2018-2019 is a wide vertical stripe in the center of the nail, which can be framed on the sides with rhinestones, a different color, foil tape, etc.
Stripes and lines in manicure
To make a strip or line on any part of the nail, there are several ways:
- paint with regular varnish, gel polish, acrylic paint, etc. using a brush of the required thickness;
- make an applique from foil, foil tape;
- create a basic stencil from ordinary tape.
As a last resort, you can use stickers, but the effect of the drawn version will look better.
Manicure with stripes and lines
Strips and lines can be used to visually correct the shape of the nail plate:
- a longitudinal strip visually stretches the nail and makes it more sophisticated; it is also important to apply several lines vertically;
- a transverse stripe or several lines visually make the nail wider, this is suitable for very narrow and elongated nail plates;
- Diagonal or randomly located lines and stripes are best used to design a square-shaped nail plate or for medium-width nails.
To decorate geometric nail art in the form of lines and stripes, it is permissible to use any decorations.
Square and triangles
Geometric shapes in the form of a square or triangle can be applied to the nails either singly or combined in a composition. Different sizes and locations of these elements on the nail can give different effects:
- with a dispersed arrangement of small squares and triangles, you can achieve a playful and unobtrusive effect; this design is ideal for short nails;
An example of a manicure with small geometric shapes
- combining two figures into one or repeating one of the elements gives the manicure rigor and restraint, and selected contrasting shades will make the design clear and noticeable. A large geometric pattern can decorate long nails, but for short nails it is better to draw smaller figures;
Combining a triangle with a square for design
- a separate square or triangle in a manicure can be supplemented with decorative elements, and also placed on the nail in a row, forming an ornament.
Single arrangement of triangle and square in design
Triangles and squares are quite popular in manicure; they can be used for any manicure, complemented with lines or stripes.
Color block
Nails that look like a kaleidoscope - this is the design principle in the color block or color blocking style. This technique is relevant specifically for geometric nail art, so that each shape stands out from the rest.
Color blocking in geometric manicure
For a successful combination, use contrasting colors (you can paint them in bright shades, achromatic, pastel colors). To make color combinations look even more contrasting, use the technique of separating them with neutral shades (for example, black varnish for bright tones).
Examples of color blocking in manicure
This manicure is not difficult to perform, but it will require patience and several colors of polish. Auxiliary tools for accurately applying each color can be tape, masking tape, and foil strips. It is important to make smooth and clear lines that act as dividers, and if the manicure was done carefully, then you don’t need to use them.
Color blocking without “separator”
Geometric patterns and checkered patterns
Simple variations of ornaments can consist of simple geometry: triangles, lines, dots, etc. This nail design is suitable for ethnic manicure, as an addition to a picture or as a frame for a French manicure. The vertical ornament looks impressive, as it visually elongates the nail.
Geometric patterns in manicure
Checkered design is an interesting idea for teenage manicure, where plain and colored polishes can be used (as in the color block technique). It is convenient to draw straight lines for the cage with a thin brush on top of the main background. The latest trend is tartan on nails in red and blue tones.
Cellular design
Geometric gradient and ombre
Smooth color transitions can be done not only with an airbrush, but also with the help of geometric lines. This can be done in three stages, but the more of them, the more beautiful the manicure looks.
Gradient and ombre through geometric transitions
The gradient can appear through an angle, a semicircle, a straight line, etc. In order not to acquire all the shades for the gradient, which literally differ from each other by half a tone, you can mix two colors of varnish in different proportions.
Origami and simple geometric designs
It’s not in vain that beauty is sought in simplicity, and the same principles apply to manicure. The simpler and more uncomplicated the design, the more impressive it will look, and in geometry this is important.
Origami in manicure
Simple geometry and origami will help you create a stylish design, but you need to choose your images wisely. In the origami theme, animalistic styles are popular, including animal heads (the current trend is fox heads), and unique designs can be created from lines that intersect or form angles. To enhance the effect, you can use a variety of decor.
Simple “geometry” in nail art
Flat and volumetric figures
For geometric designs, flat shapes are more often used - square, triangle, circle, etc. You can easily draw them even with a shaking hand. But volumetric cubes and pyramids are not often placed on marigolds. But they don’t have to be cut out.
You can use the appliqué method and create a three-dimensional geometric pattern from available materials. For example, for a cube it is convenient to use glitter in the shape of a diamond and use applique to create a design.
Flat and volumetric geometric shapes
Simple pattern on short or long nails
Geometric manicure for short nails is a small number of stripes and figures, simplicity of design. A pair of even strips that intersect or run parallel is enough.
On long nails, as they say, there is room to roam. It is recommended to combine lines of different shades, matte, shiny, glossy tones. It is not forbidden to add as many figures as you like. If only everything looked harmonious and clear.
Be sure to put a rhinestone or glitter on the top of the isosceles figure, and highlight the edge of the nail with an exquisite “smile” of a French manicure.
By the way, the triangle is the most common element of geometric manicure. Fashionistas like it the most and it looks neat and elegant. Such figures can be supplemented with stucco molding, sprinkles and even stamping.
It is very beneficial to use decorative tape when creating geometry. It is better to choose golden or silver shades. Strips of narrow tape of the required length are simply glued on, creating a geometric pattern, and secured on top with a top.
