Although not a major trend this year, many people (myself included) are opting for this nail shape because it visually lengthens and slims the fingers. The result is a super sleek and feminine look that no other nail shape can offer. So if you are considering adopting them or if you are simply looking for a new nail design, check out our gallery of ideas before your next visit to the manicure.
Stiletto nails: short nail ideas
In 2023, trends put short nails on a pedestal. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have a stiletto shape. You can see in the photo above, they still look gorgeous. And contrary to what one might think, it’s a fairly versatile manicure. When it comes to design, feel free to experiment. You can create your own version of abstract nails, which continue to inspire us. But you can also try the micro French manicure. Both look amazing on short nails. The biggest thing about the short stiletto manicure is that it is appropriate for any type of occasion. Are you invited to a wedding, have a birthday or want something special for Valentine’s Day? Stiletto nails are probably the best choice.
Long, sharp fingernails
More and more beauty addicts are falling for the stiletto manicure in a long version. Yes, it is extravagant and especially not appropriate for an office outfit. But if you like it, save the design for summer festivals. This manicure will be like a real jewel on your hands. If you are wondering which design to choose, keep in mind that minimalism is a huge trend in 2023, so the monochrome look is the first option. You can also add some sequins or crystals for a more sparkling look. The third option is to opt for a manicure with animal prints. Zebra, giraffe, tiger, turtle, leopard or even dalmatian… Even the stars have given in to it, like Kylie Jenner for example. So why don’t you give it a try? The main downside of long stiletto nails is that they are difficult to maintain. Plus, it’s almost impossible to keep your natural nails that long. In this case, you need to apply not only gel polish, but also builder gel, which is much more expensive.
