DH Nails Tips: Choose Bigger Than Smaller
XS is suitable for people with very small hands, small stature, or very small nail beds.
S is the size chosen by 70% of people. It is a regular size. If you are trying to wear nails for the first time but don't know what size to choose, you can try S.
M is suitable for people with large hands and wide and flat nail beds.
L is suitable for people with fleshy hands or large nail beds. A small number of people choose L.
How to Measure Nails for Press ons
Beginners can use a soft ruler to wrap the nail bed to measure the widest part. If you don't have a soft ruler, you can also use paper to wrap around the nail to measure the widest part of the nail surface and mark it, then use a ruler or search for "ruler" on the mobile app to download and measure.
