The desire of modern manicure for seasonality divided it into four branches, according to different seasons. Of these, summer nail design deserves special attention, because this time is associated with special brightness and lightness. How to make a stylish manicure based on fashion trends and what you need to consider for this - read on.
Style features
Summer manicure is a separate line of design techniques in the design of hand nails. Today, she has her own nuances, thanks to which you can not only harmoniously complete the female image, but also emphasize the status, and even indicate that a woman belongs to a certain style. Summer design is created taking into account different nuances, they include:
- the right choice of the used shades of color scale;
- relevant prints or decor elements;
- the specific purpose of the design, as well as the style of clothing;
- type of varnish materials used (for one day or two to four weeks);
- a specific month of summer (relevant for those who follow every innovation of fashion).
As for paints, they can be very diverse, differ in temperature and degree of saturation. In general, the summer style is light and airy. Whatever its design, it should be appropriate in one way or another. To achieve this, you have to:
- dose the amount of decor used, no matter how beautiful it may seem;
- limit the number of accent nails, making expressive accents on the nails of two to four out of ten fingers;
- use in design no more than four shades of the color palette;
- avoid repeating accents so that they do not simplify the appearance;
- select fashionable varnish and decor appropriate, without interrupting the concept of style;
- to study fashion trends in design and correlate them with your preferences;
- choose patterns that will not only look expressively on the nails, but also give the design a professional look;
- to select drawings according to seasonality, excluding inappropriate topics.
To make the design feel the ease inherent in a carefree summer, it is worth leaving part of the nail free from decoration. This method is being resorted to more and more often today. In addition, huge drawings lost relevance last season.
Summer plot compositions look great on nails. In this case, one image can be divided into 2-3 nails. However, on each of the nails, part of the image should not occupy more than half the area of the plate.
This can visually look like this:
- the girl blows on a dandelion, whose umbrellas fly in the wind;
- the wind rips off the sakura petals;
- foxes on two adjacent nails;
- fluffy cat holds an armful of flowers;
- a girl reaches out to a fluttering butterfly;
- sunset on the background of a lake of three nails;
- two-part bridge;
- beetle flying to a flower.
However, in addition to taking into account the stylistics of the summer design of nails, it is also important to pay attention to such moments as the features of the summer period itself, since it can affect not only the complexity of the design, but also require certain manipulations to improve the nail plates that are tired during the winter and need to be recovery.
Summer nail design begins with an analysis of the characteristics of the season. It is important to consider the fact that this is the best time to give the nails a break from the constant build-up and sawing of the nail plate itself. Each manicure procedure makes it thinner, which is why it can turn out and often break.
If you can not do without building, periodically it is necessary to take breaks between procedures so that the nails have the opportunity to at least recover a little. It is in summer that this happens faster.
Summer manicure needs a medical varnish that can be used as a base layer for a bright design. It will be useful to use a base coat with vitamin conditioner. Due to the abundance of ultraviolet radiation, it is especially important in the summer to moisturize the cuticle, avoiding drying of the skin around the nails. If healing oil is not enough for this, it is worth doing water baths. It will be useful to use vegetable oils with essential additives.

Colors for summer manicure can be divided into separate groups:
- pastel;
- natural;
- bright and juicy;

Common Techniques
Summer design of nails can be embodied in various manicure techniques.
For example, one of the best options would be a classic, which involves staining the entire area of the nail plate. In addition to the fact that monophonic nails look spectacular and allow you to reveal the beauty of different textures of the varnish used, they are also an excellent basis for further decoration. On them you can draw, put stamps, glue stickers and fix the volumetric decor, which includes stucco molding based on a modeling gel and crystals with crystals.
French reverse and traditional - a great modern solution for summer manicure. It perfectly conveys the ease of design, and also demonstrates the health of the nail plates, which can be achieved by using camouflage or acrylate with the desired texture and color. The color of the “smile” can be the most diverse: from the usual white to red, green, orange, yellow, pink, dark green and even black.

The nylon technique is unique in its translucent texture; it allows you to add lightness and airiness to the design. “Broken glass” is made on the basis of manicure film.
