What are the hot trends for 2016 and your nails??

Don't know what you want to do with your nails or what to expect to see on everyone else's nails?? Lots of these looks were seen on the NYFW. Some are simple and elegant others are a little bit more out there but still fun to look at  Here are 6 different trends that you have forward to seeing throughout the rest of 2016:

1. Nude nails are in full swing for 2016. you can definitely add simple nail art on top to keep the classy look without going overboard

2. Long almond nails are the nail shape for the year. The almond shape is a feminine shape that helps elongate your fingers and appear long and elegant.

3. Outlined Nails are an awesome nail art trend as well. Takes a steady hand to achieve this look but they look great when done.

4. Romantic Nails have a few different ways that you can interpret these... lace print over natural nails or a nude polish or small pale flowers. Stay neutral with the colours to achieve to this look.

5. Preppy nails have a couple different ways you can get the look. Keep it on the simpler side and draw on a few different sizes of lines or you can go for the full plaid look. Different colours will change up this style too!

and last but not least...

6. Graffiti-esque nails are also taking off in 2016. You can get this look by dipping a straw into coloured polish and blowing it onto your painted nails to get the splattered effect.

TRIANGLES

a nail art trend

There's no way in denying that triangles have been a huge trend in nail art. A simple shape, that can be adapted to any size of nail. I get a lot of clients who think they have ugly nails and are scared to try anything new and draw attention to them. My best suggestion: get that thought out of your heads! NO ONE has perfect nails. We all have to put in effort into keeping them well manicured for the shape they're in, so as long as you can do that...you can have nail art. That being said, triangles are a great place to start.

Here's some inspiration...

Remember ladies and gents, you DO NOT have to have perfectly shaped or length of nails. Nail art can work (dependent on what sort of design) on short, long, square, rounded, pointed nails and all that in-between.

Even though it feels like Christmas has just ended, and New Year's festivities flew by (almost literally), spring 2013 is just around the corner. I've been keeping a lookout for the new nail trends and it seems like contrast is the name of the game! Nail polish is a great way to complete a look, and will make your entire outfit look polished, so I definitely encourage investing in some great shades as well as a regular manicure. Now's the time to test out these looks, and see what kind of statement YOU'RE going to make. Here's a few ideas to get you going... PALE NAILS l DARK SHADES l SHINY METALLICS l FUN & EDGY l TWO-TONE
