What is good about the uniform and who is it suitable for?
The shape of nails with slightly rounded corners - a soft square - has a number of advantages over a hard square and oval:
- looks great on short nails;
- it makes it easier and more convenient to do household chores and care for the baby;
- does not require adjustments every 2-3 days;
- Excellent for coating with gel polish and shellac;
- Looks good with different types of nail art.
Important! Square oval nails don't break as often.
A soft square looks especially attractive and appropriate on the hands:
- with elongated nails;
- with long thin fingers;
- with wide nail plates;
- with medium sized nails and short fingers.
Secrets for caring for square nails
In order for the work to remain in the same condition longer, it is recommended to pay attention to the advice that the nail service teacher often prescribes at the end of the session.
The main rule that needs to be taken into account when creating a square manicure is that it grows quite quickly and becomes sloppy. Due to the fact that natural nails are thick, they are always not square, but oval, as they grow in the area of the free edge and an extension is formed that looks sloppy.
For this reason, it is necessary to use a file every 1.5-2 weeks to correct the position of the side walls. The rule does not apply to decorative coatings in the form of gel polish; it requires corrections every 3-4 weeks.
It is also recommended to periodically saturate the matrix with useful microelements and vitamins. To do this, essential oil is applied to the cuticle area, and this should be done once a week in a steam room to increase local immunity. This way the manicure looks natural and will be more feminine and well-groomed.
If your nails become chipped or chipped, fix them immediately with a file to prevent accidental damage to the edges of the square design.
Who is not suitable for square nails?
There is an opinion that the rectangular shape suits only some. “Square” will sit beautifully on plates, which by nature have an elongated oblong bed. The long fingers of the “pianist” will also come in handy. But the list of those for whom this form is contraindicated is even more extensive:
“Square” is completely contraindicated for owners of wide nails with a small bed. Visually make them wider and shorter;
Trapezoidal plates are also prohibited. The narrow base of the nail, widening towards the tip and ending in an exorbitant square, will look like an open fan. It will look abnormal;
Do not dream of a “bob” and owners of very narrow nails, unless they want almond-shaped nails; How to make it, the instructions for creating square plates will tell you;
A wide palm with small fingers, even if it has “square” shaped plates, is also a contraindication;
It is quite difficult to make a “square” on weak, fragile disks. As a rule, these nails begin to curl and lose shape as they grow, and there is not even a hint of what was originally there.
Options for matte tops for covering nails (+ video tutorials)
A matte topcoat is a finishing coat that dries matte. This coating dries to a porous surface and can be divided into three options.
Option 1
These are the tops with the most porous surface. They have a deep matte velvety feel. Suitable for dark shades of varnish. Since the surface structure is porous, it tends to get dirty quickly.
Option 2
Satin or nubuck matte finishes. They are less porous. Thanks to this, they are suitable for lighter or neon shades.

Negative space
Probably all fashionistas know this type of manicure as “negative space”.
The unusual design appeared quite recently, but is already quite in demand among the fair sex. In the “negative space” design, some part of the nail plate remains unpainted in the form of a chaotic or specially created contour. “Negative space” will appeal to lovers of laconic designs, since most often manicures are shown in modest pastel and soft colors.
Noble blue
Noble shades of the blue palette in the beautiful new matte manicures presented by stylists this fashion season can complement any look and pleasantly surprise even the most sophisticated young lady. Blue marigolds go wonderfully with gold and silver decorations, and are also harmoniously complemented by colored or glossy designs. The blue velvet coating has notes of nobility and grandeur, which allows you to confidently choose a similar nail design for festive and special occasions.
Holes under velvet covering
Lately, lunar manicure has experienced many dramatic changes, the main of which are minimalist techniques.
Modern versions have a huge number of futuristic, non-standard and original designs that will definitely attract the attention of others to your hands. The matte design with holes looks advantageous in a dark design, and nails in pastel shades can be diversified with bright or combined crescents of contrasting tones.
Floristics
Images of flowers, leaves and branches will create a delightful composition on matte nails. The best new floral nail art is demonstrated using watercolor techniques. Translucent flowers under a velvet cover look extraordinary, complementing an evening or everyday look.
Exquisite white
White color always remains outside of fashion trends and is very often used by nail technicians to design manicures. In most versions, white acts as the main coating, and the matte finish allows the nails to acquire a magical velvety look, filling the entire female image with notes of tenderness and romance. The matte white design combines chicly with sophisticated voile and minimalist designs. It is beautifully complemented by brilliant decor and is friendly with many techniques. For example, a master can design elements of “negative space” on accent nails, beautifully combine gloss and matte finish, or highlight a nail with the shine of glitter.
