Manicure "Ballerina"

Every woman makes sure that her nails and hands look neat and well-groomed, but this takes a lot of effort. After all, it is not without reason that when meeting people, they immediately pay attention to their hands, which means that they simply cannot be ignored. Today, you can do any manicure in a beauty salon or choose a more budgetary, home-made option. Next, I would like to pay attention to manicure under the beautiful name "ballerina", which has become so relevant lately. We will also consider a variety of designs that perfectly complement such a manicure.

This manicure got its name because of its special shape. It is considered both original and practical. Today, it is chosen by many self-confident girls who are not afraid of changes in their lives.

Nails are just as subject to fashion trends as, for example, clothing and cosmetic products. However, not everyone tries to follow them. But it’s a sin not to pay attention to such an unusual manicure and not to try it on yourself.

The shape of the nails called "ballerina" is a kind of combination between the square and almond-shaped forms of the nail plate. On the one hand, it looks like a rhombus with a cut-off top, and on the other, it looks like ballet pointe shoes.

This form of nails is considered universal and convenient, it is chosen by the fair sex of all ages and for all occasions. With this form, you can visually lengthen the fingers and make them more attractive and aristocratic.

Despite the versatility of such a sharpening of the nail plate, we recommend paying attention to the following nuances when creating this manicure:

• For the “ballerina” shape, it is best to choose a discreet design or completely plain coating options. The rule of nail-masters is as follows: the longer the nails, the less use of patterns and stones. Ballet nails love minimalism, crisp lines and shine, but everything should be in moderation.
• "Ballet" manicure will be a great solution for natural nails, but if you can't grow your own, then it remains only to resort to artificial extensions.
• It is very important that all nails on ten fingers are perfectly sharpened. Any irregularities or errors will immediately catch the eye.
• It is not necessary to implement mega long "ballet" nails, you can also stop at medium length.
• It is very important to choose the appropriate bows for this shape. Formal suits and dresses, pencil skirts and office blouses will fit perfectly here, but it is better to save tracksuits for another occasion.
• This form of nails looks very beautiful when there are many rings on the fingers.

To create pointe nails, all you need is a good nail file, care and patience. Next, we recommend paying attention to the approximate instructions on how to make such a form yourself:

• Determine the future length of your nails, file them so that you get a square, cutting off everything superfluous. If you have artificial nails and decide to adjust the shape at home, you need a coarser file and special nail clippers, since regular artificial nails can crack.
• Now we have square nails and we need to make a trapezoid out of them. To do this, you need to correctly and evenly file the corners. It is best to take a file of medium hardness, so as not to overdo it and not ruin the shape.
• Try to keep all nails the same length and sharpening angles. If you rounded off somewhere, then the whole essence of the “ballet” manicure will be lost. Therefore, do everything slowly and carefully.
• After creating the very desired and ideal shape, polish your nails with a special buff.

On ballerina nails, you can experiment in absolutely different ways, exactly as your soul and today's mood desire.

I would like to note right away that this form of nails looks great in a classic monophonic coating. As for fashion trends, you can paint your nails with matte varnishes completely or make two nails with a luxurious sheen, for example, medium and nameless.

The most advantageous look on such nails are delicate nude colors and pastels, all options for gray and pink.Such nails in a juicy shade of marsala or bright red will look very expensive. In general, there are a lot of design options. But be sure to look at the rich matte.

• Very stylish “ballerina” nails can be decorated in jet black. Some experts still call this form of nails a “coffin”, however, but they still resemble it. So why not do an ominous Halloween manicure with black shades and stones, if this form allows it.
• As mentioned above, ballet nails love delicate shades of pink and other pastel options.. Such shades can be easily diversified with clear geometric or strict lines. It will look very sophisticated and elegant. In addition, such nails can be decorated not only with smooth lines and patterns, but also with a lot of shine.
• A combined manicure on a ballet uniform will also look very advantageous. You can decorate the index and ring fingers or the middle and ring fingers with delicate shades with a shimmer, and do all the rest in a plain version. It would be very nice to put pebbles and rhinestones under the cuticle on shiny nails.
• Matte nails are in fashion like never before. Choose any shade and boldly paint your pointe nails with it. In the first place, of course, is the design in pink. And also no one has canceled doing unusual moon manicures in a matte finish, you just have to think over a good design.

Ombre design looks no less elegant on such nails, and it does not have to be done in a beauty salon. We recommend that you pay attention to the following step-by-step instructions that will make your ballerina manicure even more luxurious:

• On pre-sharpened and prepared nails, apply the base color. For example, choose pale pink, it can also be transparent.
• On a special sponge, apply the color you need, in our case it will be white, since we will be making a white-pink gradient.
• Gently, with light patting movements, make an imprint with light varnish on the nail.
• Repeat this action on all nails.
• Fix your nails with clear polish. If you work with gel polishes, then a top coat.

Nails with an ombre effect can be complemented with various beads, crystals or delicate discreet painting.

Also, you can diversify the “ballerina” nails with a beautiful marble pattern. Most often it is performed on a wet gel. But if you have the desire and patience, then you can make such a design using ordinary varnishes. For this you need:

• Apply varnish and immediately make small droplets with another varnish, using something thin, such as a needle or dots, make chaotic marble stains.
• Repeat everything on other nails.
• Fix the result with a colorless varnish.

If you do not want to spend a lot of time and effort, then just get marble stickers.
