Lograr el equilibrio perfecto entre minimalismo y nerviosismo puede ser particularmente difícil cuando se trata de manicuras. Encontrar algo que pueda satisfacer su deseo de un patrón audaz que se mantenga alejado de cualquier cosa de neón o lleno de brillo, tener una habilidad especial para el estampado animal pero no querer que se parezca a una mala caricatura. Entendemos su dolor, y los mejores diseños de uñas de septiembre de 2020 lo canalizan perfectamente.

“Veremos una gran cantidad de inspo de uñas provenientes de avenidas que no hemos visto antes”, dice Rachel James, fundadora de Pear Nova Nail Salon y esmalte de uñas en Chicago, IL. “A todo el mundo le encanta tener algo listo para usar que nadie más tiene, por lo que traer imágenes de inspiración creativa a su cita de uñas es una manera fácil de obtener eso. Las oportunidades son infinitas. He visto videos musicales, ropa, joyas, plantas , comida y más transformados en arte en las uñas”. Y aunque muchas personas continúan apoyándose en colores brillantes, el enfoque de colores más vampíricos para el otoño permanece. “A juzgar por lo que nuestros clientes han estado eligiendo para sus manicuras últimamente, también veremos muchos diseños creados con colores tenues, con tonos de joyas y vampíricos”, dice James.

And according to Ashley Tran, founder of Verbena Parlor and Social House in Dallas, TX, anticipate an influx of nail designs that merge bright and deep hues. “Brushstrokes have been trending this year,” she says. “We’ve seen a lot of summer colors with, say, black lines or shapes on top. It really sets off both colors.”

Ahead, check out the nail trends that everyone will be swooning over, as seen in some of the chicest salons around the world.

September Nail Trends: Marble Trails

Marble nails aren’t particularly new. However, not everyone wants the crystal-resembling style adorning their entire nail bed. Instead, opt for small accents of the style for a look that’s both simple and decorative. “These gel nails are made using monotone colors and strategic placement to highlight the flow and movement of the gel,” Tran says.
