How To Measure Press On Nails

The first step in sizing your press-on nails is measuring the length of your own natural nails. It is important that you take accurate measurements as this is what you will use as a guide when selecting which size to apply.

To measure your own nail length, start from one side of the cuticle and measure straight down to the tip of your nail. Don't measure from corner to corner as this could give an inaccurate result - it must be measured directly from the cuticle down. Write down these measurements for each finger for reference later on when selecting a size.

Keep in mind thumbs are usually sizes 0-3, Pointer fingers usually size 3-7, Middle fingers usually size 2-6, Ring fingers usually size 4-7 and the Pinky is usually sized 6-9. The preset sizes are just a guide you're creating based on the general sizing of most people. Of course, your customer can always provide their custom sizes if the preset sizes don't work for them.

If you're using a regular ruler, place a piece of clear tape across the widest part of the press on nail and draw a line with your pen down the edge on both sides of the nail.

Then take the tape and place it on the centimeter side of the ruler. Count the number of lines on the ruler from one marking to the next (don't worry about the actual numbers showing on the ruler just count the lines). This will give you the size in millimeters of that particular nail. You will want to write these mm measurements down to prepare for creating your sizing chart.

If you're using a fabric ruler you can skip the tape and just lay the fabric ruler across the press on nail, at the widest part of the nail, then count the lines from one edge of the nail to the other.

When you purchased your full cover nails from your supplier, they should have come numbered 0-9. Once you have measured each nail to get the mm size then add it to your size chart with the corresponding number found on the packaging or you can find it on the tip of the nail. You could also purchase an already set up template for your size chart here.
