Don’t let all the pictures on the internet fool you. Minimalist nails are NOT boring or any less charming than long acrylic nails. We love the glamorous look of long nail extensions with all that glitter and gemstones. But sometimes less is more. Minimalist nails are more practical, quicker to paint, and less likely to chip or break. They can be your best manicure option, especially if you have to use your hands regularly in your daily life.
