Tropical Breeze

Summer is the time of year when people are most eager to try new things. The colors that are usually associated with this season are different shades of blue, green, and yellow. It is also the perfect time to revive old summer nail art ideas that you haven’t worn in a while.

Cocktails on the Beach

Summer nail art ideas usually include various colours like gold, neon, and green. If you want to stay away from these hues then you can opt for two-toned or monochrome nail art designs like birds or simple stripes. This season, in particular, nail art is full of bright and vibrant colours in high demand among nail designers and clients alike.

These summer nail art ideas are perfect for this time of year because they echo the fun and carefree attitude of the summertime. Let your nails never be an excuse not to show off your personality!

Sangria Sun

When it comes to summer nail art ideas, many people tend to choose colours that have been popular in the past. The colours that are traditionally found in a classic manicure include pink, black and deep red, and although these are appropriate for summer there are also other colours that can be used to create stunning nail designs for the summer months.

Don’t be afraid of neon or gold designs, they are in season and can give a very modern look to the evening cocktail party even when a minimalist design is used, like a diamond or stripe effect.

Ballroom Beauty

There are a wide variety of colours that can be used for your fashion needs. Some colors and tones always seem to shine brighter than others and some colours will blend in better with your current environment. If you’re looking for a more toned-down look, consider using black and white colours. These will accent beautifully the clothing you choose to wear. 

A black sun on a white nail for example can be both defining and elegant, especially when wearing something contrasting like a bright summer dress, for example…

Remember Rome wasn’t built in a day, the key to all these summer nail art ideas was starting with the basics then layering to get the most, foils then used to accent some designs, steady hands are a must, it’s easy to relay gems and foils at home, but this doesn’t look professional when you’re constantly adjusting the design in the studio with clients, avoid too much coffee and caffeine and stay hydrated.

Finally, here’s 5 quick and easy summer nail ideas:

Summer is a time for fun and relaxation. You can use this time to try out new beauty trends and experiment with different nail art designs.

There are many summer nail art ideas to choose from. You can have flowers, watermelons, or even the summer Olympics logo on your nails!

1) Flowers: Pick two colors that go well together. Paint all of your nails with one color, then paint the tips of each nail with the other color. Finish by painting a flower in the middle of each nail using both colors. This design is perfect for those who love being creative, but don’t want to take too much time on their nails!

2) Watermelon: Wet your brush and dip it in white paint. Starting at the bottom of each nail, paint a watermelon slice in the same pink and green color on each nail in contrast to the white background, take care to as usual dry each colour before adding another. Finally add black ‘seeds’ using a dotting brush.

3) Cherry Slurpee: Starting at the bottom of each nail, paint two vertical lines of red and top them with 2 horizontal white stripes. Dab a cherry shape below the white lines for added flavor!

4) Mango: Use green to draw an upside down “M” on your left-most nail. Paint sequentially A, N, G, O on your remaining nails on that hand using a green – yellow gradient. This goes well with a pastel background.

5) Grape: Using a light purple on a light coloured nail, dot 5 grape shapes on each finger, then add 3 below and then 2 and 1 working your way down until you have a bunch of purple grapes.
