Coffin-shaped nails - a new controversial trend in manicure

Stylists have already called this unique trend of the season creepy, gloomy and very controversial. But demand creates supply, today stylists can offer many ideas for the design of unusual nails. Moreover, they assure that a manicure with coffins can be not only fatal and suitable for a masquerade, but also gentle, innocent and even romantic.

First of all, this form of nails is available only to owners of long nails, it is simply impossible to give such a short form. But to build up this form of nails is not difficult. Of course, true ladies and ladies, shackled by the strictness of the dress code, should not abuse such a design, because it looks quite defiant. But young hooligans, creative personalities and eternal adventurers simply must at least once try to shock others.

This non-standard type of manicure is distinguished by a shape that looks like a square, but with a narrower tip. A manicure looks very interesting, in which the shape of the coffin is combined with long nails of a pointed shape or square. You can select only 1-2 fingers and sharpen them under a new trend. So, manicure will be more restrained and less provocative.

The scope for imagination in terms of coverage in this design option is huge:

• classic monophonic coating in black and red colors, berry-wine gamut will definitely add a degree of gloom and challenge, if you aspire to it;
• delicate, pastel shades distract attention from the unusual shape and balance the overall impression of the composition;
• almost all fashion trends are appropriate in tandem with this form of nails.

It is worth paying attention to the most popular nail design options in the form of a coffin.

One of the leaders in the design of the coffin manicure is the classic French manicure and its reverse, moonlight look. Why a coffin-shaped jacket has become so popular is explained by the fact that the transparent, nude coating makes it less provocative, and the decor allows you to show imagination.

Pastel shades of pink, peach, lavender, mint or blue are a great way to divert attention from funeral motives. The nude scale and ombre technique will also perfectly cope with this task. A smooth, non-contrast transition within one discreet range is capable of giving life even to a coffin. The same effect can be expected from the gradient coating. But the exquisite gray color, despite its elegance, is too cold for such a manicure.

Here the imagination is practically unlimited, and if a laconic or delicate gamma is chosen as the main background, even flowers, patterns and ornaments will be appropriate. In the case of choosing floral motifs for the drawing, the use of too bright and catchy colors should be restrained. The shape of the nail itself is quite aggressive and requires restraint in everyday design.

Everything that glitters will help to add festivity and spectacular manicure: sparkles, “broken glass”, glitter, rhinestones. It is best to design 1-2 accent nails in such a way as not to overload the ambiguous design. A metallic tint of decor is another way to revive a slightly funeral design mood.

This option will further enhance the gloomy impression, emphasize the sharpness of the corners, a strange shape. Therefore, you need to be careful with it, unless, of course, you are pursuing a completely opposite goal, and gloom is included in your plans.

Another way to exaggerate the impression of the coffins on the nails is to add a little motive to the marble slab, especially if you take white, gray or black as the basis. Although, if you are going to Halloween, why not.

A holiday is coming soon, on which not only the gloomy afterlife theme is appropriate, but also welcomed in every way. Going to Halloween you can not be afraid to overdo it, you can safely plunge into the funeral-Gothic mood and do the most unthinkable things.

The first thing that comes to mind when you look at the shape of the coffin is the coffin itself. Therefore, painting in the grave theme will be most welcome. It is enough to take as a basis a black matte or glossy varnish and add the edging and crosses in gold, silver or red.

Another stunning decor for a gloomy holiday can be made in the form of a skull or skulls. They can draw 1-2 nails, but you can do it all. In Halloween, you can not restrain yourself. A stunning impression, in the literal sense, will be made by such a manicure on a white background with black decor.

This symbol of bad omen is requested on the canvas in the form of a coffin.You can choose a nude-body gamut as a background, and place black cat faces on accent or all nails.

The sharp shape of the coffin nails is in perfect harmony with the simple sharp shape. Select the ring finger with a sharp tip and shape it in the form of a blood-shiny knife.

When thinking over nail art for a masquerade, do not forget about snakes, because these animals are able to catch real fear on people, and an animal print is a real hit of the season. A neutral or scarlet coating in combination with a snake pattern or decorated in the form of scales is a great idea for a gloomy stylized manicure.

Who is your favorite horror hero, choose and draw. Freddy Krueger, Pennywise will look very convincing on a masquerade night. The red little finger will get along well in this composition.

If you want to maintain some restraint, choose a dark blue background and depict all phases of the moon on the nails. Gloomy and rather concise.

A dark background, trees swaying in the wind - such a landscape is able to catch the eerie with only one description.

Images of this kind are capable of much and are great for the night when all evil come to life. Against a neutral background, a white ghost with eyes and mouth will look very harmonious.

A gray or black web or a scary spider waiting for its victim is a great Halloween idea. A few strasses on the web will give a feeling of raindrops.
