Overview of 2024 Nail Trends: What’s New and Bold?

2024 is a chance to say goodbye to the fads of last year and explore new shapes, colours, textures, and lengths.

While we might be early into the New Year, there are definitely some distinct 2024 nail trends emerging already.

We’ve already gone through our top January nails but If you really want to stay ahead of the curve and keep your trendsetting status, here’s what to wear on your nails in 2024.

 

Nail Trends: A Glimpse into Colors and Patterns Dominating 2024

One of the most important factors that affects trends and colours, is the Pantone Colour of the Year. In 2024, Pantone’s colour of the year has been named Peach Fuzz. It’s described as “a light, delicate shade that sits between pink and orange,” so it’s super versatile for all skin tones.

We’re going to see this colour pop up on clothes, jewellery, makeup, decor, and, of course, in 2024 nail trends. So if you’re not sure what colour to pick, this is a safe bet.

Other trending colours include sheer, barely-there nails that mimic your natural colouring. Think of it as “my nails but better”.  

Experts also predict that last year’s “glazed doughnut nails” will be replaced by chocolate milk nails, so stock up on the creamy browns now.

A lot of people are leaning away from patterns, especially cow print and checkers that look a little dated these days. Instead, a nice pop of nail art seems to be trending upwards…

Nail Art Trends: The Rise of Creative Expression in 2024

Nail art is a great way to show off your personal style, creativity, and flair. And in 2024, we’re going to see a tonne of really unique nail art trends.

Aura nails are undoubtedly a big hit right now because they perfectly blend minimalism and maximalism. You can do one pop of colour on a neutral nail, a different colour for each nail, or go crazy and ask to blend numerous different colours together.

A lot of people are also opting for a more toned-down version of nail art, with one or two simple rhinestones or a small bow. Not so much the chunky-blinged-out nails that were all the rage a few years ago, but just a little something-something.

You’ll definitely notice a theme here, where people seem to be opting for less is more when it comes to their manicures.

 

Acrylic Nail Shapes: The 2024 Guide to Choosing Your Style

If you’re not one to rock your natural nails, then of course you’ll want to know the trending acrylic nail shapes!

We’ve certainly seen a few different popular nail shapes over the years, like long stiletto and coffin nails.

But in 2024, you’re definitely going to see more short square nails. These are super practical and versatile and are way less prone to breakage. 

Of course, when you’re choosing nail shapes, you should opt for what’s most flattering for you. Whether you have long, short, stout, or thin fingers and hands has an impact on the effect certain nail types have on you. Ask your nail tech for their expert advice!

The Fusion of Tradition and Innovation in 2024’s Nail Trends

Every year brings new and exciting developments in nail technology, but we also love to draw inspiration from the past.

2024 nail trends are undoubtedly going to blend timeless and traditional styles with modern twists. 

We might see this as simple, solid colours with a unique velvet finish. Or perhaps a barely-there or pastel colour, in a cool jelly-fish texture. 

When it comes to fusing the old and the new, the sky’s the limit!
