Unicorn manicure

The fashion for rainbow unicorns has long gone beyond children's cartoons. Now magic horses are everywhere - fashionistas decorate accessories with them, dye their hair in bright colors, wear clothes with prints and inscriptions praising unicorns. Of course, the fashion trend has not bypassed the nail service. Girls share fan photos online, and masters share video tutorials on how to create a manicure with a unicorn.

There are a lot of varieties of unicorn-style manicure. We can say that all means are suitable for creating such a manicure. But some attributes are simply impossible to do without. Purchase the following:

• Nail stickers. A simple and pleasant way to decorate your nails is the so-called water stickers. Drawings on a film basis are easily applied to nails and last a very long time, do not fade. Now there are a lot of them: big and tiny, bright and restrained, animated and graceful, watery and translated.
• Pastel shades of varnishes. To make the picture stand out better against the background, you should choose pale shades of blue, mint, pink, white or beige for it.

• Bright colors. If you do not want your nails to be decorated with stamps, use bright varnishes with a thin brush - this way you can draw a unicorn, for example, according to the unique sketch of the master.
• Rainbow, clouds, stars, flowers, hearts. To prevent your unicorn from being lonely, it is better to complement the drawing with a variety of patterns. Everything will do - from unobtrusive curlicues to chains of stars, hearts, flowers. But the most appropriate drawings will be clouds, a rainbow.
• Inscriptions. For unicorn lovers, a manicure with inscriptions is perfect: cartoon quotes, motivating phrases, your author's inscription, or just some funny nonsense. There will definitely be room for several lines on your nail.

• Sequins and rhinestones. Many people think that glitter polish is out of fashion. Perhaps it is, but not in the case of unicorns. Everything that glitters will do here, whether it be nail glitter or special individual rhinestones. You can make the entire background shiny or just the outline of the picture - you choose.
• Kamifubuki. This trend, similar to mini-confetti for nails, has long taken root in the nail service environment. A huge variety of colors, shapes and sizes of plates allows you to create different patterns from them: geometric, chaotic. You can completely cover the nail with them. Quite unusual, but definitely worth a try.
• Gradient. An ideal background for a unicorn will be a gradient manicure - a combination of several colors smoothly merging into each other. The most logical combination for this situation is iridescent shades.

• Rubbing. Holographic manicure immediately won the hearts of fashionistas with an unusual iridescent structure. Perhaps you can say that neon shades represent the magical environment associated with unicorns.
• 3D horn. For dessert - perhaps the most unusual solution. This is a voluminous horn, which is applied to the nail with a special tool (in several layers).Not the most convenient solution, since the pattern forms ribbed protrusions, but it looks very original, fabulous.

There are incredibly many options for creating a magical manicure. Even better, they can be combined: for example, make a neon manicure with a voluminous horn, kamifubuki, rhinestones. You can make a rainbow gradient with inscriptions and drawings, clouds with sparkles. Experiment and enjoy!

After the main hygienic manicure, you need to apply varnish of any shade on your nails. It is best to use pastel colors for the background. Then you need to moisten the sticker in water, carefully remove the pattern from the paper base and attach it to the nail, after drying the varnish a little. After that, it is necessary to cover the drawing with a transparent varnish or a special fixative. So the picture will last longer without losing brightness and without being erased. The shape and length of nails - any, you can also use additional elements for decoration.

Such a manicure is almost impossible to do yourself at home, so it is better to turn to a professional. Manicurists use acrylic varnishes and sculpting techniques. The horn shape and ribbed relief are created using a polishing machine, then the freshly manicured nails are kept under an ultraviolet lamp. A little patience - and your personal work of art is ready.

For such a manicure, the shape of the nails must be as close as possible to the shape of the horn. You need to narrow them to the end and sharpen with a nail file.Be prepared for the fact that you have to get used to the extra load and volumetric irregularities. But for the sake of such beauty, you can endure.

However, do not forget that for some situations it is inappropriate. There are dress code rules, ethics. If you are a doctor, you are unlikely to be able to work with such a manicure. And at a concert of symphonic music, you will probably be looked at accusingly. But A unicorn manicure would be perfect for summer holidays and beach parties, Halloween night and New Year's masquerade.

Even if you are for restraint in everything related to appearance, it is worth trying such a fabulous manicure. No one can resist this magic! Just properly assess your strengths. If you are sure that creating such a manicure on your own will not work, choose a salon that has earned the trust of customers. Everything is perfect there. You can also turn to a good private master, who has won many positive reviews.
