Manicure has long been loved by female consumers. Data show that the market size of China's manicure industry continues to rise and is expected to reach 266.2 billion yuan by 2027. At present, traditional manicure requires a series of steps such as trimming, polishing, coloring, and baking lamps in a nail salon, which is time-consuming and highly dependent on the manual operation level of the manicurist. As a new form of manicure, handmade press on nails are gradually being accepted by busy young consumer groups because of their many characteristics such as being able to be worn anytime, anywhere, diverse styles, and favorable prices. However, for some people who have just entered this industry and are preparing to start a handmade press on nail business, they may not be very clear about the specific classification of handmade press on nails. Next, the common classification of handmade press on nails will be elaborated in detail to help them understand this field more deeply.

 

 

Classification by shape

 

Square nails

 

 

 

Square

Square nails have straight edges and flat nail tips, and the overall lines are tough, giving people a simple and capable feeling. This shape is suitable for people with wider nail beds, which can visually shrink the width of the nails and make the nails look more delicate. Square nails are quite popular in the fashion industry. They are suitable for both professional wear to show professional temperament and trendy clothing to highlight personality.

round nails

 

 

 

Round

The edges and tips of round nails are rounded arcs without sharp edges, which looks softer and more natural. It is suitable for all kinds of hands, especially those with prominent finger joints or unclear hand lines, because the arc of the circle can play a certain role in modification, making the hands look more beautiful.

oval nail

 

 

 

Oval

The oval nail is between round and square, more slender than round, but not as sharp as square. It can fit the natural growth shape of the nails well, while giving the fingers an elegant and slender visual effect.

Almond-shaped

 

  

 

Almond

Almond-shaped nails are elegant and sophisticated, characterized by tapered sides and rounded tips, resembling the shape of an almond. This shape elongates your fingers, making them look slender and elegant. Perfect for everyday wear and special occasions, almond-shaped nails add a touch of classical beauty to your look.

Ballerina nails

 

 

 

Ballerina/Coffin

Ballerina nails, also known as coffin nails, are characterized by an elongated nail shape with a flat, square tip. This dramatic shape resembles a ballerina's slipper or coffin, hence the name. Ballerina nails are perfect for bold fashion style and are often worn by trendsetters and influencers. They offer plenty of room for intricate nail art, making them a favorite for those who love to experiment with a variety of designs.

 

 

Classification by length

 

Short handmade wear nails

Short

Short handmade wear nails are usually about 1-1.5 cm long, just slightly beyond the nail bed. This length of wear nails is very suitable for daily life and work, and will not cause any hindrance to the movement of fingers.

Medium wear nails

Medium

Medium wear nails are generally between 1.5-2.5 cm long, slightly longer than short ones, and can better show the design and decoration of nail art. Medium wear nails are suitable for some casual occasions or parties, which can add personal charm. In terms of style, medium wear nails can have more creative space, such as gradient, smudge, diamond and other complex crafts.

Long wear nails

Long

Long wear nails are usually more than 2.5 cm long, and some can even reach 4-5 cm. Long wear nails have a strong visual impact and can show extreme gorgeousness and personality. It is generally suitable for special occasions, such as stage performances, weddings and other occasions. The design of long wear nails is often very exquisite, and may be combined with advanced crafts such as carving and inlaying a large number of gems.

Classification by production process

 

Handmade press on nails

Handmade press on nails rely on the handmade work of the nail artist, and every step is completed by manual operation. From the trimming and polishing of the nail pieces to the drawing of patterns and the pasting of decorations, the nail artist has devoted his skills and efforts.

Machine-made press on nails

Machine-made press on nails mainly rely on machine equipment for large-scale production. Through pre-set programs and molds, the machine can quickly produce a large number of nail pieces of the same specifications.

 

Conclusion

 

Press-on nails offer a variety of options to suit every style and lifestyle. Each nail shape provides a unique way to express style and personality. I hope the above classification of press-on nails will be helpful to you.
