Which Nail Shape to Choose According to Your Body Type
Choosing the right shape for false nails is essential to enhance your hands and beautify your fingers.
Here is a guide to help you select the ideal shape according to the morphology of your nails and hands.
📌 1. For long, thin fingers:
Do you have slender fingers? All shapes will suit you perfectly, but here are the ones that will accentuate them even more:
✅ Stiletto : Makes the hand look even longer for an ultra-elegant effect.
✅ Coffin : Chic and modern, perfect for a trendy manicure.
✅ Almond : Natural and refined effect, ideal for a touch of elegance.
🚫 Avoid overly large shapes like squares, which could give a disproportionate effect.
📌 2. For short and/or wide fingers:
If your fingers are shorter, opt for shapes that visually slim your hands:
✅ Almond : Adds finesse and lengthens the fingers.
✅ Oval : Soft and natural, perfect for slimming hands.
🚫 Avoid overly square or wide shapes like the Large Square or the XL Coffin , which can accentuate the "short" effect.
📌 3. For flat or curved natural nails:
If your natural nails are very flat , some shapes may be difficult to wear without gel pads or liquid glue to properly follow the curve.
🔹 If you have flat nails :
✅ Layer 2 gel pads to compensate for the difference in volume and prevent detachment.
✅ Opt for shorter or medium shapes (Oval, Short almond, Short square).
🔹 If you have curved nails :
✅ Opt for a flexible capsule to avoid empty spaces on the sides.
✅ The Coffin and Stiletto shapes can fit well.
📌 4. For a natural and subtle effect:
If you want an elegant yet understated manicure, opt for:
✅ "Short Oval" shape : Similar to a short, rounded nail, ideal for a subtle look.
✅ Short oval : Provides a neat and natural effect.
✅ Short bob : Ideal for a clean and structured look without being too flashy.
🌟 Note: Our male clients or those wishing to conceal damaged nails particularly appreciate the Oval or Short Square shape, which imitates a healthy and well-maintained nail.
