Manicures with animals periodically turn out to be among the favorites of nail design. Drawings with animal faces look incredibly realistic and colorful, so it is not surprising that such designs again and again excite the imagination of fashionistas.
Features of manicure with animals
Modern fashionistas believe that moon manicures and French manicures sometimes get boring and you want something unusual. That is why many beauties prefer manicures with images of some animals. Very often there are designs on ladies' nails in the form of the faces of a cat, owl, wolf or cunning fox. The main users of this design are girls who have reached the age of thirty. They often give preference to those animals with which they compare themselves. For example, those who like to sleep and relax while lying in the sun can decorate themselves with a pattern in the form of a panda. Well, lovers of a bright and catchy clothing style are advised to choose a pattern in the form of a parrot or a red-haired rogue. Real masters of their craft can create a whole work of art on a lady’s nails, depicting a dense forest with a howling wolf on all fingers. You can also find a manicure with a tiger-colored pattern, and on one of the nails there is an image of the eye of a predatory animal.
If there is bleeding - first aid
Always keep a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution on hand. Even the most careful owner can accidentally injure a pet. If blood comes from the claw, quickly press a cotton swab soaked in this liquid onto the wound until the bleeding stops.
Do not worry! Everyone makes mistakes. Under no circumstances should you be frightened or start to panic at the sight of blood. Just be more careful next time. It is better to leave a little more claw, this will definitely not harm you.
Love for an animal is not only about beautiful clothes and walks on a pink leash. Real concern is creating the most comfortable conditions possible. What kind of comfort can we talk about if a dog with long nails is constantly in pain? Be sure to take care of your pet's paws and do not go to extremes.
Which ornament should you choose for a manicure design with animals?
Each beauty has its own character and disposition, so the ornament in the form of an animal must fully suit the interests and requirements of the owner of the manicure. For example, hot-tempered and strict ladies often choose an image of a leopard or a tiger, while cunning and calm ladies prefer a design in the form of a cat. But before you start working on your manicure, you should familiarize yourself a little with the symbolism of the animal.
Getting used to cutting hair
If the breeder has taken care of the upbringing in advance, you will not have any problems. But what to do if your pet is not yet familiar with the nail clipper? Ideally, you should be accustomed to the procedures immediately after adaptation. You shouldn’t torment your baby on the first day: he already has enough reasons for stress.
Introduce new rules gradually
Surely the baby will not like what is happening. They encroach on personal space, forcefully hold you, wield a strange object... You need to make the process as natural as possible. First, let your pet sniff the nail clipper. Don't let them play. Stop any attempts to chew or have fun with prohibiting commands.
A small dog can be placed on the table. It is advisable to place a large one between the legs. However, practice shows that not all animals calmly agree to a haircut. In most cases you have to be cunning.
Start playing with your dog. Gently lay him on his back or side, caress him and praise him. Speak as friendly as possible. Screams make the pet tense, but affectionate words relax. It is permissible to slightly fix it with your hands, but it is advisable to do without violence. Cut quickly and confidently: long attempts cause discomfort and pain. Be playful. At the end, praise and give a treat. “Rebels” can be fed right in the process.
Your contact with your pet is crucial. If he sees you as a wise mentor, patron and leader, then there will be no problems. The dog may protest at first, but then calm down. Aggressive, cowardly and simply ill-mannered animals will actively resist. Here, alas, you will first have to deal with general education and training.
Manicure with a fox image: meaning and symbolism
Very often, modern beauties, when choosing a manicure design, give their preference to the image in the form of a fox. We all know that this animal is cunning and dangerous. In myths and legends, this creature is distrustful and cautious in its actions. That is why our girls want to express their inner world with such a drawing and warn others that they need to behave carefully with them.
Red nail art design
Despite the emotionality that comes from the color red, such a bright and eye-catching palette in manicure goes well with various types of designs. Therefore, fashionistas who prefer sophisticated methods of nail design can safely combine red polish with geometric compositions, for example, “negative space” elements or “predatory” prints. In addition, the red coating looks very interesting on nails with a “web” and rubbing design, as well as all kinds of thematic and seasonal designs. With such a variety of variations, you will always be on top!
Manicure with animals in artistic style
Some manicurists have a special talent for hand-painting nails. It looks like a real work of art or a colossal masterpiece. After all, most craftsmen use stickers or ready-made stamps for design. To perform paintings, several types of brushes are required at once. Each layer of the ornament applied to the nail must be dried in a UV lamp. The master must have excellent imagination and artistic skills.
Cute dogs
A manicure with animal faces is original and unique. To apply a drawing of a dog, we decide on the main shades of varnish. Masters, as a rule, recommend a combination of white, light brown, coffee and black.
In addition to the dog's face, the manicure can be complemented with paws, a bone or a tail. The animal is depicted in full or only the face is drawn.
Dog portraits look great, but this technique requires artistic skills. The image is created using a thin brush and several shades of varnish. The more realistic the dog's drawing, the more lively the nail design looks.
Manicure with animals in geometric style
Today, design in the style of geometry is considered the most popular and in demand. Even images of animals are fashionable nowadays to draw in this direction. Geometric style involves making a drawing using dots and lines. For a more simplified version of applying the ornament, craftsmen use ready-made sliders and stampings. Well, for those who like to make the ornament themselves, a geometric pattern will not be difficult. Geometric animals are quite often created in achromatic colors. When applying this design, the most important thing is to choose the right shades and carefully apply the lines of the design so that the silhouette of the animal is noticeable.
Choosing a nail clipper
Despite the extensive range of products, there are only 3 main types of “scissors”: sickle, guillotine and nail files.
1. Sickle-shaped nail clippers are the most familiar and convenient for us. The curved blade allows you to quickly and painlessly remove excess parts.
2. Guillotines have a ring into which you need to insert a claw. This device has a number of disadvantages. Firstly, it is difficult to sharpen. Usually, if the blades become damaged, you have to get rid of the guillotine. Secondly, in the process, the nail cutter literally breaks the tissue, which sometimes causes longitudinal splits.
3. There are 2 types of nail files: automatic and regular. Using a grinder is a real pleasure, but it is not cheap. In addition, some dogs are afraid of vibration and noise. An ordinary rough file for artificial nails will help if the pet categorically does not accept nail clippers. Animals usually agree to a compromise.
Manicure with animals in slide design
Slides are ready-made drawings made in the form of colorful water stickers. This device is very convenient and practical to use. After all, not every master will be able to make a complex ornament. These devices are also used by girls who prefer to do their own manicure. Slides come in a huge variety. The drawing can be flowers, animals, landscapes. For those who consider the slide ornament unfinished, you can use your own imagination. Add a few rhinestones or sparkles in the right places.
Sea depths
When going on vacation, girls prefer to get an unusual, bright manicure. The marine theme gives you the opportunity to show your imagination and draw any underwater animal on your nails.
The technique is no different from applying other patterns and pictures. The main thing here is to choose the right colors (shades from soft blue to dark blue are suitable).
Starfish look very beautiful. They are painted with bright orange or red varnishes on a blue background. You can complement this design with sparkles or small rhinestones.
Dolphins remain at the peak of popularity, because these animals bring peace of mind and tranquility. For creative people, the dolphin is ideal for manicure. Fish and turtles can be painted with bright colors, decorating the drawings with green algae.
Manicure with animals using stamping
Stamping is a very convenient device for applying a specific design. This attribute has an already applied ornament, which needs to be simply transferred to the nail using special devices. As for the drawing with animals, there may be paw prints or muzzles. Stamping equipment includes: a metal plate with an ornament, a scraper, a silicone stamp, varnish or paint.
With owls
Manicure with animals allows you to create a unique nail design. An owl will make the girl's image mysterious and enigmatic. The easiest way to make such a drawing is to use ready-made stickers. It will be more difficult to apply a drawing of an owl with a brush. This will require precision and patience.
Drawing a bird yourself is not so difficult:
- apply the main shade of varnish;
- choose the nails on which we will paint;
- using a very thin brush, draw the outline of the owl, ears and paws, after which all the details are drawn;
- remember that each applied layer needs time to dry;
- The finished owl drawing is coated with finishing varnish.
Images of birds of prey are very popular; they can be supplemented with feathers, footprints, and small rhinestones.
Manicure with animals using acrylic powder
Most manicurists use acrylic powder to create winter nail art. Basically, these are ornaments of a certain theme that cannot be made without this device. Powder serves as a means for creating convexities of certain elements of the design (snowflakes, a scarf and a teddy bear's hat, and many other designs). Acrylic powder in delicate bed and white colors is often used.
An animal manicure is a great design for women's nails. This type of decoration can not only add originality to a girl’s image, but also serve as an excellent way to lift her spirits.
With chanterelles
Animal manicure ideas are varied. Foxes painted on nails look very cute. This design is complemented with tails, paws, and decorative elements.
