Features of adolescent care

Girls begin to become interested in their own appearance between the ages of 9 and 14. This age is considered reverent, as personality and habits are formed that play a decisive role in the future. If there is a matinee, a school holiday, or just an important event at stake, it is important to choose the right nail polish and design to match the style of the outfit. This will allow the child to feel growing up and turn into a real princess.

The design shouldn't look like mom's. You should take into account the child’s preferences and not try to turn him into an adult. Remember that children have their own fashion trends.

Before you begin the procedure, you need to prepare your fingers. To do this, treat your hands with an emollient and wash them with soap. Then use small scissors to cut off the excess length and shape it using a nail file. Do not cut the cuticle to keep the thin skin intact and avoid bruising. Use a wooden orange stick. Simply push the cuticle away from the surface. Before nail art, consult with your child which design is preferable.

Advice! To maintain the attractiveness of the plate, use special products that do not contain acetone. It spoils the fragile surface and leads to brittleness.

Popular options for 9–13 years

Forget that it’s too early to get your nails done at this age. Girls already want to look like their mother and surprise their classmates with their fashionable looks. Support your child in his desire to become beautiful. Just explain that frequent dyeing is harmful to health. But on holidays it’s quite possible to please a fashionista. Let's look at popular design ideas.

• Animals. Animal prints are popular with adults and children. They attract and amuse them. The difference is that women use a separate element reminiscent of the animal, and you will need to try to depict a whole bunny or cat. It’s difficult to do this at home if you don’t have drawing skills, but you can use stickers or practice several times. The panda is considered a fashion trend. To depict it you only need colorless, black and white varnishes.

• Cartoon characters play an important role. The main thing is to consider the child’s preferences and remember adolescence. For example, the characters from Malyshariki are no longer relevant. Variations with anime are possible.

• Bows and flowers are suitable for princesses who want to grow up faster.

Pay attention to your daughter's character. If she doesn't like the drawing, discard it. Otherwise, problems with self-esteem may arise and complexes may develop. Remember the time spent together. Avoid conflicts and opposition of interests. Mom should be a friend at the same time. Put yourself in the shoes of your own child and try to find a common language.

Advice! Before applying polish, degrease your nails. This way it will remain in its original form for a long time. Don't forget the base coat.

Advice! Avoid metal nail files. They cause fragility, brittleness and delamination.

Manicure ideas for children

On the Internet you can find interesting manicure ideas for young fashionistas. As a rule, the “children’s” category includes multi-colored, motley designs. Bright combinations of coatings and funny designs on short nails are the “calling card” of children's designs. A wide variety of topics are chosen for drawings. If this is a seasonal design, for example, an autumn design, you can draw raindrops, leaves, or a funny hedgehog on your nails. For winter design, patterns of snowflakes, red-nosed deer, and Christmas trees are usually used.

Options for older girls are simple, neat and moderate. This is especially true for school-age girls, because a manicure for school should not be flashy, but calm.

Fruits

Juicy oranges or watermelons, a smiling banana, strawberries in cream - what girl would refuse to decorate her nails like this? If the design is performed by a professional manicurist, the designs can be painted with special paints. At home, children's manicure can be done using special stickers. They can decorate all your fingers, or just a few of them.

Simple drawings of a strawberry, a watermelon slice, an apple, a raspberry or half a kiwi can be made with toothpicks and colored varnish. Interesting ideas for your own implementation can be seen below.

cartoon

Both a very little girl and a teenage girl can afford a manicure depicting their favorite cartoon characters. These designs look cool and attract attention.

Of course, in adolescence there are certain restrictions associated with the school dress code. A bright cartoon manicure with funny minions or Disney Mickey Mouse is suitable for the summer or during the school holidays.

Using stickers and decorative varnishes, you can make a funny design with cartoon drawings for one evening, for example, for going to the cinema with friends or for a friend’s birthday. Below is a photo of a funny children's manicure on short nails.

With animals and insects

Butterflies on a pink background for a little girl are like a classic French jacket for a stylish woman - a popular and unmistakable solution. You can add sparkles to the design or decorate some nails with flowers. This children's design is suitable for the summer.

For teenage girls, you can use animalistic drawings in design, but it is better to move from realistic images of animals and insects to silhouette, graphic ones. The outline of a cat, zebra stripes, and the silhouette of a butterfly, made with thin lines on a colored surface, look more mature and restrained.

Everyday manicure

Older girls can get a gentle manicure in calm shades for everyday wear. Girls' "favorites" include all shades of pink and lilac. As an “every day” option for teenagers, a pink manicure, a simple design in beige, nude, and pastel colors, is suitable. Soft blue, light lilac, bleached pistachio, vanilla, marshmallow - all these shades are suitable for manicure for children. With their help you can create a single-color manicure, gradient design, or lunar nail art. These options look discreet and do not attract undue attention, which means they can be chosen as an option for a school manicure.

Advice!

A matte top in combination with nude shades will help “kill two birds with one stone” at once. Firstly, it creates a fashionable effect, and secondly, a nude matte manicure looks natural and natural, as if the nails are not covered with anything.

Summer manicure

A neat, beautiful manicure for teenage girls is a kind of way of self-expression. During school hours, you won’t be able to afford a bright design, but the summer holidays are a “green light” for experiments in manicure. Among the interesting ideas that are relevant for girls, it is worth highlighting:

• rainbow nails covered with multi-colored polishes;
• white design with inscriptions;
• sparkles of different colors;
• kamifubuki;
• drawings (hearts, snowflakes, flowers, funny animal faces, cat paw prints, berries, emoticons);
• simple prints (polka dots, stripes, checkerboard);
• abstractions.

Advice!

To create a design with an abstract pattern, you can use the water nail art technique. The process is interesting in itself and gives an unusual result. To create interesting stains, drop varnish into a glass of water, then dip your finger into the water so that the film of varnish ends up on the nail. After the varnish has dried, it is covered with a transparent top.

False nails for children

On the eve of a holiday, for example, a child's birthday, mothers and daughters try to think through the image of a young fashionista down to the smallest detail. False nails can help create a festive look. This is an easy way to create a stunning manicure for a teenage girl.

False nails look like thin plastic plates that imitate the shape of a nail. As a rule, they have a beautiful design that is difficult to do on your own. But many mothers are concerned about the question of whether it is possible to use such fashionable beauty things at a young age.

Experts warn that it is often unsafe for children to glue false nails. They disrupt the nutrition of the nail plates, which can lead to problems with nails in adulthood. If you use false nails 1-2 times, on a special occasion, nothing bad will happen. The main thing is to choose high-quality products from well-established manufacturers, such as El Corazon, TNL. Then you won’t have to worry about the harmlessness of the glue and materials from which the artificial plates are made.

Using artificial nails is very easy:

• remove old nail polish, if any;
• artificial plates are pre-filed so that they match natural nails in size and shape;
• the artificial nail is applied to the natural one and pressed;
• after wearing, immerse the fingers in warm water for 10 - 15 minutes so that the glue dissolves;
• False nails are carefully removed from natural nails by prying the edge.

Advice!

False nails with bright designs are best used no earlier than adolescence. Children's manicure on short nails at the age of 11 and younger girls looks much more attractive than false nails. A bright, provocative manicure, such as a red manicure, will look especially ridiculous on young hands.

Design for 15–16 year olds

In high school, fashionistas' preferences change. They already try to please the boys, go for walks in the evening and feel like adults and independent individuals. This period is critical as character development occurs. Therefore, try to support your daughter in her desires, of course, if they are within reason.

What to choose for an elegant nail design?

• Emphasize the fact that you don't have to use too bright colors to stand out from the crowd. It is better to follow fashion trends and use pastel shades, nudes and small design elements.

• If the desire to emphasize individuality is stronger, pay attention to abstractions.

Monogram patterns visually extend the length and look gentle and romantic

• Do not discourage self-expression in red and burgundy unless it interferes with your studies, for example, during the holidays. We will talk about this in more detail.

If a child considers himself to be one of the subcultures, be prepared for the fact that he is unlikely to like the classic look. But don't be led. Goths don't have to paint their nails black. Show the advantages of French. Offer the best option. Replace the skulls with silver chains. You will receive gratitude if you try to plunge into and understand the inner world of your child.

Advice! Do not remove coatings using improvised means. A special liquid is designed for this. Take your time and perform the manipulation carefully.

Spectacular nail art for Halloween

Some time ago, many had no idea about such a holiday as All Saints' Day. However, in the modern world, we not only know how to celebrate it, but we also actively dress up as creepy monsters and “hunt” for sweets. In order not to rack your brains when choosing a stylish and original manicure for teenagers 14–15 years old, suitable for the occasion, you should follow the option shown in the picture below. It looks very beautiful and creepy, and is easy to do. In addition, it does not require unavailable professional tools. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves, but first let’s talk about the necessary materials. These are purple, white, yellow, black varnish and clear. You will also need a thin brush or tool to apply small polka dots. When everything you need is ready, we move on to executing the design.

Why we follow the instructions:

1. First of all, paint all your nails purple.
2. And we dry it thoroughly so as not to smudge the design later and spoil the idea of ​​a manicure for teenagers on Halloween.
3. Then we take a convenient tool and draw a white ball in the left corner of the nail plate.
4. We also dry it, after which we proceed to the next stage - drawing the house. Professional nail artists often say that before drawing on your nails, you should practice on a piece of paper. When the structure matches your wishes, you can draw its silhouette on your nails. Then carefully fill with black varnish and dry completely.
5. Finally, you need to draw yellow rectangles and line some black stripes, imitating windows.

Finally, apply a clear varnish to each nail plate and wait for the design to dry completely. And then you can safely show off your original manicure for 14-year-old girls to your friends.

Ideas for school

Remember your school days. We always wanted to stand out in some way. The awareness of one's own beauty and its emphasis often went beyond. Therefore, follow the preferences of the growing girl and show her truly original and appropriate options, for which teachers will not punish her.

You know for sure the importance of well-groomed hands, so don’t send your child to class with dirty nails of different lengths. But with design, things are a little more complicated. Let's consider the most affordable and acceptable styles.

• French is a classic look that is suitable for all ages. It looks neat, discreet and well-groomed. The trend is a smile of different shades, so don’t forbid you to dye the white tip pink. You can add a small design or stone on one selected finger, for example, the ring finger.

Marine nail art

• A gradient or ombre of pastel colors looks charming and emphasizes good taste. It is not difficult to do at home if you use a regular foam sponge.

Perfect ombre

• A single-color coating will never lose popularity. Play with monochrome through texture. Alternate between gloss and matte to add flair to your look.

Stylish monotony
Pay attention to the lunar manicure and negative space techniques. Try not to use flashy colors.

Advice! Do not overuse nail dryer as it mainly contains acetone. The most acceptable option is an ultraviolet lamp.

Experiments for the holidays

When the lessons end, freedom comes. Schoolgirls dress and paint themselves however they want. The task of parents is to channel creativity and enthusiasm in the right direction. Liberation from occupation does not mean complete anarchy. But you can allow the use of bright colors.

• At the age of 9 – 13, help a young lady portray her favorite cartoon characters. Black Mickey Mouses on a red background are a perfectly acceptable option. Multi-colored fruits and animals look funny on short nails. Don't be afraid to combine with yellow, orange, blue and green.

• At 14 , the desire to be an adult becomes stronger and red appears on the plates. Remember that it is seductive and sexy only on an adult hand, so don’t worry about it and feel free to draw hearts, polka dots, bows.

• At 15–16, offer a fashionista the broken glass technique or a matte manicure. They are in the 2021 trend for adults, but they look no less attractive on teenage nails.

A gentle gradient on your fingers will look simply amazing.

Advice! Under 16 years of age, the plate cannot be extended. The original surface is still weakened and will not withstand aggressive influence. If the need arises at 14 years old, use helium materials.

Manicure with Mickey Mouse

The following original idea is great for creative people. Therefore, it is especially often chosen by older girls who want to emphasize their spontaneity and originality.

The last school ball characterizes the period of transition from childhood to adolescence. Girls become girls and certainly strive to emphasize this.

Photo design will be creative. Select any image and print it in a photo salon. Decorate one or more nails with it.

Modeling is not used in everyday nail art in 2021. But as a small original element at a prom, it is quite harmonious. Make one large flower on your ring finger in the salon. Try to match the style with other accessories.

Impeccable Accent

On a magical evening, any manifestation of individuality is possible. The main thing is to use moderation and do not try to depict all the patterns in one design. Conciseness and simplicity are most appropriate. It's no secret that naturalness is the main trend of the current season.

Holiday manicure for teenagers

Teenage girls begin to grow up, acquire individuality and want to be noticeable and stand out. Young fashionistas copy girls from their mothers' popular magazines, and for girls 12-14 years old it is very important to feel stylish, fashionable and attractive. Therefore, for many teenagers, a bright holiday manicure is a way of self-expression and self-affirmation.

For girls 11-13 years old, you can offer an “adult” option, but not without childish spontaneity. Bright patterns and drawings depicting fruits, sea creatures, cakes, and emoticons should not only be flashy, but reflect the mood of the little fashionista. Teenage nails can be decorated in a fun cartoon version. A manicure with your favorite characters will please the eye and lift your child’s spirits. Animals, flowers and butterflies are not a complete list of possible design solutions.

For girls 14-16 years old, you can get your nails done with shellac for the summer. Such a long-lasting manicure would be appropriate for a trip to the seaside or to a children's camp, when the girl will not have the opportunity to regularly care for her nails and apply a new coating. And if you can’t wear bright nails to school, then a birthday, a beach party, a disco for teenagers is just the occasion for bright, flashy nails with provocative pictures. You can decorate all your nails or focus on one of them.

Manicure for teenagers is not only nail care, but also a great way to show off your individuality. Therefore, girls should be allowed to be bright, at least on those days when they do not have to go to school. And in an educational institution, manicure can be more restrained and moderately strict.
