Striped Nails

Striped nails or line art nails are the art of using tape and other materials and creating narrow or thick lines on nails to have a perfect design finally. These patterns are popular because they are simple yet versatile and can be easily paired with different nail art designs. They are one of the simplest, most classic ways to add a pop of color or pattern to your look. Striped nails often go well with other nail art designs, such as polka dots, flowers, or geometric shapes. They can also be combined with glitter or metallic embellishments to add some sparkle. The possibilities are endless and depend on personal style and creativity.
Line art nails can be the first type of your own nail art, as they are very easy to do. You can make striped nails by painting each nail with a different color and using striping tapes or other tools to create nail design lines between the colors. Striping tapes give you more control over the thickness and beauty of the lines. You can also combine two or three colors. To have striped nail manicures or pedicures, take off the stripping tape, stick it on your nail, and just repeat the same steps for your preferred design. You may want to draw lines for thin or thicker stripes, either horizontally or vertically. The process is a time-saver because drawing lines can be challenging without striping tapes.
Common colors used for striped nails include black, white, red, blue, and yellow. However, any color can be used depending on personal preference and the occasion.
We have compiled a list of unique and creative line art nail designs. These designs feature bold lines, graphic shapes, and geometric patterns that can be customized to suit you. From simple stripes to intricate zigzags, line art nails are a fun and playful way to express your style.

How to Choose the Best Colors for Striped Nails

Choosing colors for striped nail designs depends on personal preference, skin tone, occasion, and the overall look you want to achieve.
✔ Consider skin tone: Certain colors may look better on warm or cool skin tones. For example, warm skin tones look great with gold, orange, and yellow, while cool skin tones look good with blue, green, and purple.
✔ Think about the occasion: If you're looking for a more formal look, consider darker, richer colors such as burgundy, navy, or black. For a more playful look, try brighter colors such as pink, purple, or yellow. For example, striped pink and white nails look great for springtime festivities like Easter or Mother's Day. In the summer months, yellow and white stripes would look great with a bright red lip for some eye-catching color.
✔ Experiment with different line art patterns: Different line art patterns, such as horizontal or diagonal stripes, can affect how colors appear. For example, horizontal stripes can make fingers look wider, while diagonal stripes can make them look longer.
✔ Consider the type of polish: There are different types of polish, such as crème, glitter, and metallic, that can add texture and dimension to striped nail designs.
✔ Ultimately, the best way to choose colors for striped nail designs is to experiment and have fun with different combinations! Be creative and make your own.
Some color combinations that work well together for striped nail designs are as follows. Remember, the key is to find a contrast between the colors so the stripes stand out. You can also try combining different shades of the same color for a more subtle look.

Tips for Striped Nail Designs

Use tape or stencils to help create straight lines.

Make sure the tape is completely smooth down and that there is no space between it and the nail because if there is, nail polish will slowly seep underneath when you paint over it, preventing you from getting that lovely line.

Use a brush or toothpick to touch up any mistakes.

Experiment with different widths of stripes for a more dynamic look.

Try using a contrasting color for the stripes for a bold effect.

Don't apply too many coats of polish, which can make the design look heavy and clunky. Thin coats of polish are suitable for more precise application.

Don't overload the brush with polish, which can cause smudging and uneven lines.

Don't rush the drying process, as this can lead to smudging and ruined designs.
