So many fun and innovative designs can be found in the wonderful world of acrylic nails. Although acrylics are commonly associated with extra-long looks, they actually allow you to experiment with various lengths and impressive styles, whether you want a short, square French manicure or a set of lengthy, neon-pink, stiletto-shaped nails. The possibilities appear to be nearly limitless (and, at times, overwhelming).
Because these manicures are long-lasting, you should choose a design that you like. Acrylics are more durable than gel, according to nail artist Brittney Boyce. They are made by combining a powder (polymer) and a liquid (monomer) to form a dough-like consistency that can be filed and molded. A talented manicurist can then create whatever your imagination conjures.
Whether you use acrylic powders, gel polishes, or gel extensions, the right nail technician will be able to care for your natural nails. So take a look at this gallery of acrylic manicures in square, stiletto, coffin, and almond shapes. We’re confident you’ll find everything you need for your next nail appointment.
