Fashion trends affect not only clothes, makeup, but also manicure. To create a stylish look, you should know the latest fashion trends in manicure in 2016. A neat and beautiful manicure is something that no modern girl can do without. It is not enough just to file the nails or remove the cuticles, because when creating a stylish manicure, you must take into account the latest fashion trends.
It will be much easier to remember several main trends of 2016, adhering to which you can always have a stylish and relevant appearance, regardless of where the girl is:
- Pastel shades of varnish. This is one of the most popular and feminine options, which is suitable for any occasion and event, thanks to which it does not lose its relevance. This is ideal for girls who prefer a romantic style of dress and natural makeup.
- The shape of the free edge of the nail plate should be as natural as possible.
- Transparent coating is the latest fashion trends in manicure in 2016. This option is universal, so it is not at all surprising that a transparent coating of nails is increasingly found in fashion shows. However, it is important to remember that in this case there must be a perfect hygienic manicure.
- Monochrome varnish. In the new season, a monochromatic glossy coating turned out to be at the peak of popularity. It is worth stopping the choice on colors as close as possible to plum, red, brown and wine palette.
- The classic jacket, which is ideal for any image and event, will never lose its relevance.
- The moon manicure also remains popular, which is preferred by both young girls and adult ladies.
- Graphics, frame. This is one of the latest innovations in 2016 in the world of manicure. However, in this case, it will be necessary to use the services of a professional master and have an elongated shape of the nail plate, since such a design will not look very beautiful on short nails.
- Inconsistency of colors in clothes and shades of varnish. For quite some time now, such combinations have gone out of fashion.
- Feng Shui nail design. Recently, the selection of a separate shade of a marigold on the ring finger has become increasingly popular. In this case, not only different colors of varnish can be used, but also sparkles, interesting patterns can be applied.
- Matte finish. The matte coating of the nail plate looks very interesting, stylish and a little unusual. That is why the girls could not abandon this trend in the new season.
You can safely design your nails in an interesting floral style, or use some other. Everything here will depend only on personal preference. However, it is important to remember that the nail design should be in harmony with the rest of the image or some individual details.
Classic French manicure in 2016
The classic jacket is in no hurry to lose its popularity. But other types also remain relevant - for example, color, millennium, fan french. The classic turned out to be at the peak of popularity, when the tip of the nail plate stands out with light pastel shades of varnishes.
For girls who love this type of design and do not want to give it up, it is useful to know a few important recommendations from professional stylists:
- In the new season, the jacket should not be too bright and contrasting. It is important that the shade with which the tip of the nail plate stands out does not differ from the main one by more than 3 tones.
- In the warm season, you can make a choice in favor of brighter shades, but in this case it cannot be used simultaneously on all fingers, you need to leave only a few accents that will create an interesting play in contrast.
- It is advisable to stop the choice in favor of the original smile line - for example, V-shaped, triangular, wavy.
- The main novelty of 2016 was a jacket, which simultaneously combines 2 types of manicure - first, a smile line is drawn at the base of the nail (as when creating a moon manicure). Then this color is applied to the free edge of the nail plate. The base is covered with any pastel shade of varnish, but only without shine.
- The design is gaining popularity in which a special mixture of several colors of varnish is used in the creation of a French manicure.
- Regarding the length of the nails, girls who prefer long extended nails should opt for a jacket when the length of the free edge is no more than 4 mm. It is desirable that the length of the artificial turf be as close to natural as possible. It is necessary to completely abandon stilettos (very long nails with pointed ends that have a designer print).
How to make a trendy and simple manicure yourself?
For lovers of experiments who prefer to do their own manicure at home, several options for its creation are presented at once, which simultaneously combine relevance and brightness, femininity and courage.
Manicure is done according to the following scheme:
- To decorate marigolds, you can use transparent pebbles, which must be placed exactly at the base. It is worth using not only rhinestones, but also varnish, for drawing small dots, and sprinkle them with shiny sand on top.
- If the choice was stopped on a pastel manicure, you can highlight one nail on the ring finger with any contrasting shade. Also in this case, some interesting design can be made with foil, but it cannot be applied to all nails at the same time.
- When planning a visit to some festive event, it is worth doing a lace manicure, but it should not be very contrasting - for example, a combination of brown and beige, peach and white, steel and black looks interesting, stylish and modern. It is important to ensure that the manicure fits harmoniously into the created image.
- If you opted for a casual style, you should use thin contrasting stripes, which can be either vertical or slightly rounded. You can easily create stylish graphic designs yourself, but for this you need to use a simple transparent tape.
- This season, the most relevant is peas, with the help of which the lightness and boldness of the created image is emphasized. It is worth using a powdery pink shade as a base, and white for polka dots. Several marigolds can be made with other bright colors.
Most importantly, when performing a home manicure, it should be as accurate and moderate as possible.
What shape of nails are in fashion in 2016?
In 2016, it is no longer fashionable to give marigolds a perfectly rectangular shape. For those girls who do not like the oval shape, it is recommended to make the nails pointed. However, you should not create "cat" claws, as this form has long lost its relevance and will speak of bad taste. At the same time, it is not the best option to blindly follow the latest fashion trends, because the harmony of the created image is the most important. There is a shape of nails, for which only a rectangular shape is suitable. Therefore, if the nail plate is small and rounded, you can leave a few millimeters of the free edge and shape it into a non-sharp square.
For owners of sufficiently wide marigolds, it is not recommended to cut down the plate too much, since it is enough to give it a slightly rounded shape and varnish it with a bright shade, while retreating from the side rollers by 1 mm. Thanks to the use of this technique, visually, the nail begins to seem a little narrower. By wanting to wear long nails, they are given a rounded shape, but not square.
Wedding manicure in 2016
One of the main trends in wedding manicure is the emphasis on the grace and beauty of the dress, but not on the hands or on makeup. All other details of the image should only emphasize the good taste of the bride and her natural beauty.
Designers advise brides to opt for a pastel manicure, because this is a classic that does not lose its relevance for many years and will help create a stylish and harmonious look. You can also use a more interesting version of a festive manicure, when a volumetric pattern is applied to the nails (it is the elements of the wedding attribute that should be used).
Short marigolds should be varnished with saturated colors, which will harmoniously combine with the main color scheme of the celebration - for example, cherry, lilac, wine, and sometimes green. It all depends on the chosen style, and there are practically no strict restrictions. The most important thing is that the bride's image is harmonious and stylish.
Fashionable colors of manicure in 2016
White - from matte to pearl. Light shades help to give the image lightness and airiness, emphasize the smooth and delicate line of the fingers. Examples of such a manicure can be found in fashion shows of famous designers, especially in wedding collections. Ivory shade varnishes give their owner a little boldness and sophistication. At the same time, you can safely experiment with creamy textures and shining pearls.
Red - this varnish color does not lose its popularity over the years and still remains in demand, both by young girls and adult women. Red has become a classic today and helps to emphasize the femininity and sophistication of the image. In 2016, you can safely choose almost any shade of red, from light pink to deep red.
Gray is a rather mediocre color, but nevertheless looks very interesting and stylish on nails. Polar blotches create a bright hue, so gray has long ceased to be boring. This polish shade is perfect for the cold season as it pairs well with cream coats, light colored fur coats and cozy knit sweaters.
Sea blue - one of the advantages of this color is that it can shimmer in a wide variety of shades. In 2016, women of fashion are presented with a fairly wide range of colors, not only blue, but also green. The combination of azure and indigo, turquoise and emerald looks very interesting. At the peak of popularity, there was a rich sapphire shade, which is ideal for modern and confident girls.
Gradient - shades of the same color range have become popular for a long time, which are gradually replacing each other. Now it's the turn of gradient nail art, in which modern designers have decided to combine several completely different shades and colors.
Regardless of which shade of varnish or the shape of the nails was chosen, the main thing is that the created manicure is not only stylish and fashionable, but also harmoniously combined with the rest of the image.
