Round Nails

Round nails are a classic nail shape that is flattering for most people. To have this shape, you need to file the tip of the nail into a smooth, rounded curve, mimicking the natural shape of it. These circular nails resemble the contour of your fingertip. Their natural and subtle appearance has nothing to do with some other modern ones, such as stiletto.
What makes round nails popular are their natural look, durability, versatility in design, and ease of maintenance. People with all hand shapes can try it; however, they may be flattering for people with short fingers or wide nail beds seeking a casual classic look.
So, if you are looking for a nail shape for work and office, casual outings, and formal events, choose round-shaped nails. And accordingly apply colors with neutral tones like nudes, soft pinks, and beige shades. Classic reds are also perfect on round nails because of their timeless appearance. And to design them, it's better to have something minimal, like delicate stripes or dots. If you enjoy the look and feel of the nail shape, it suits your style, and we prepared inspirations right for you to have a perfect round nail design.

How to Choose the Best Colors for Round-shaped Nails

There are various options for choosing the best colors for round nails. The primary rule is to consider your skin tone, occasion, personal preferences, and length of nails. You may also be interested in seasonal trends. But here are some tips to find the best colors for round-shaped nails.
- Opt for lighter colors like beige, pink, and pastels if you want your nails to look longer. They give your nails the illusion of length.
- People with wide and narrow nail beds should remember that nail colors less influence the width of their nails; instead, they have to focus on the design for a more narrow or wider shape.
- The best olive skin tone choices are colors with a yellow or orange undertone. For fair skin, a pink or blue undertone would be great. And if you have dark skin, colors like red or brown would be perfect.
