You always want to meet the new season in full readiness. Especially when, after a long, cold winter, a warm and sunny spring finally arrives. Of course, this manifests itself in every little detail. Including your own style and the choice of manicure is an integral part of it. We share spring 2024 trends for short nails!
1. Gold and metallic
This spring will be the season for metallic designs. And all because, in addition to the usual rubs and foil, the range of other types of coatings is now rapidly growing.
2. Volume manicure
In the spring of 2024, the fashion for voluminous designs will be quite minimalistic. This means that you can choose the right option for any nail length. You need a few volumetric accents – nothing complicated or bulky.
3. Rubbing on short nails
Rubs are a unique material because, with a minimum of effort, they give the most effective and varied results. In spring, we recommend pearl rubs and holographic!
4. Spring pink manicure
All shades of pink will not leave the catwalks and pages of glossy magazines in 2024. In spring, you have two extremes: delicate floral pastels and bright doll pink.
5. Stickers and minimalism
Nail stickers are a very convenient way to create minimalist designs. Choose small and concise stickers, and focus on just a few accents.
6. Flower designs
Well, how can spring do without flowers? Naturally, floral motifs are among the top trends for short nails. Miniature drawings in pastel colors are outstanding.
7. Moonlight manicure with glitter
Lunar manicures appeared at one time as a counterbalance to the boring French manicure, and since then, they have been constantly competing in popularity. The freshest and most original version will be in 2024 – with the help of sparkles!
8. Floral ornaments
With the arrival of the first warm days, floral patterns are breaking all records of popularity. Nail designs made using stamping look especially interesting.
9. Pastel manicure
Pastel lavender, pink, mint, blue, and vanilla shades look perfect on short nails. And yet – they all combine amazingly with each other!
10. Pearl manicure for short nails
Pearl manicure immediately attracts attention with its noble shine. It is bright and, at the same time, very delicate. It is made by rubbing pearls onto any base to taste.
11. Matte spring manicure
Once you try a matte top, you want to return to it repeatedly. Firstly, it is spectacular and simply pleasant to the touch. Secondly, it transforms any usual varnish.
12. Minimalism with rhinestones
Rhinestones may seem too massive and complex for a short-nail manicure. But in 2024, minimalist designs with tiny, neat rhinestones are trendy, so don’t deny yourself anything!
13. Multi-colored strokes on short nails
Designs with brush strokes look very simple. At the same time, they are always unique so that you can choose successful combinations for any shape or length of nails.
14. Spring mint manicure
The mint shade always looks expensive and impressive. It is more complex than pure blue or light green, and at the same time, it seems spring-like. Just try it!
15. Manicure without manicure
Nails look as natural as possible, but at the same time, very neat, with an even shade and strengthening. Fashionable translucent bases for every taste come to the rescue.
16. Multi-colored French for short nails
The most ideal French manicure is always achieved on short nails. But the classic white version on beige looks a bit boring. Therefore, we suggest playing with the classics in different colors.
17. Funny inscriptions on nails
Of all the stickers and drawings, funny and cute inscriptions are now at the peak of popularity. They can be stylized as comics or graffiti. And spring is the best time for such experiments!
18. Wet shine on short nails
There are different ways to achieve a spectacular wet shine of the coating. And any of them turns the most basic and minimalistic manicure into a stylish work of art.
19. Zebra with colored accents
If you want something brighter and more expressive, go for fantastic kitsch—a few accent zebra nails combined with a bright base coat, such as yellow or green.
20. Red with nude
A clean red manicure looks impressive, but sometimes you want something more interesting. And in this case, we recommend adding a couple of nude nails with small red elements.
21. Spring blue manicure
Sky Blue is another win-win choice for spring manicure 2024. And if you want something more naive and light, you can complement it with snow-white clouds.
22. Bases with impurities
Those same bases with sparkles, dried flowers, confetti, and other tinsels of various shapes and sizes will not soon give up their positions. So you can confidently continue your experiments in the spring!
23. French with stretch for short nails
Another stylish variation of the traditional French manicure is a gradient French manicure. It is best to do it with an airbrush to make the transition as smooth as possible.
24. Cartoon pictures
Since spring 2024 will be the season of slightly naive but charming designs, it’s time for all those cartoon stickers and funny designs on nails that seemed out of place in winter.
25. Light gradient manicure
Too bright and contrasting gradients do not always look good on short nails. But light transitions between pastel shades are an entirely different matter!
