From the ultra-dominant fruity manicure trends of the summer to the stunning micro floral nails Blake Lively sported recently, we’re in the era of tiny nail art. Ranging from the super-delicate to the ultra adorable, the micro manicure encapsulates nearly every dominant trend for the range of looks from cartoon-cute to sleek and sexy.
The Top Nail Trends of the Summer
We all know this is the summer of the manicure, and it’s clear that nail art is our new signature form of expression and creativity. Celebrity nail artist Julie Kandalec agrees, saying that the rise in trendy looks has made the manicure a critical part of a look. “Your outfit just isn’t complete if your nails aren’t done,” Kandalec says.
And the rise in these trends has made even more traditionally reserved clients go for bigger looks.
“Most of my clients are pretty traditional when it comes to nails, especially in the celebrity realm,” Kanadelc explains. “Even those clients are branching out into trendier stuff.”
From cocktail nails to solar nails, these nail trends have made us all look forward to the next evolution of the manicure. And if you’re feeling exhausted by the dozens of mini trends popping up this summer, you’ll be comforted to know that the iconic french manicure is still a hugely trendy choice.
But thanks to it’s astonishing variability, the micro manicure can fit just about any trend. That makes it secretly the most dominant trend of the summer.
When Big Trends Go Small
And who thought the next big thing would be so small?
As the summer has worn on, we’ve seen a rise in micro manicures among celebrities and nail artists. From Kylie Jenner’s garden nails to the tiny Y2K decals that complete a true brat summer, every trend can be made micro. This vast definition means that a micro manicure can be basically anything, from floral to geometric, abstract to fruity, just on a smaller, more delicate scale.
