Chrome nails, granny nails or classic French nails – the nail trends for winter 2022 are fun and more versatile than they have been for a long time. We don't know how it is for you, but for us there is hardly a better feeling than leaving the nail salon with freshly painted nails. After all, our hands are our business card and a chic mani gives our outfits the finishing touch. But just when we thought we'd seen it all, a whole new nail design caught our attention. Away from the classic and monochrome manicure! Comic Nails are THE coolest nail trend that has already taken social media and our hearts by storm! What's all the hype about and how can you get the look yourself? You can find all of this and the most beautiful nail designs in our article!
What are Comic Nails anyway?
Admittedly – there are every few weeksnew nail trends, which make our hearts beat faster (thanks, TikTok and Instagram), but this one is just out of the box.. well, technically the book. As the name suggests, Comic Nails look like our fingernails came straight out of a comic book. The nail design in pop art style is a real eye-catcher and puts you in a good mood in the dreary winter.
With the nail trend, you can go as simple and minimalistic or as bold as you want. Sometimes in bright neon colors, in soft brown tones or as classic French nails - comic nails come in a wide variety of designs and variants. No matter which direction you go, the result is an extremely cool look that immediately catches the eye. However, all nail designs have one thing in common: the drawn light reflections and shadows as well as the thick, black frame.
Make comic nails yourself: It's that easy to achieve the trendy look
While many nail designs are difficult to recreate at home, Comic Nails are actually super DIY-friendly. With a few simple tricks you can easily create the trendy look yourself and be amazed. All you need are nail polishes in colors of your choice, a thin nail brush and white and black nail polish. And here comes our instructions on how you can put Comic Nails on your own nails.
Apply top coat and base color
As with any other manicure, with Comic Nails we first need to create a foundation. To do this, apply a thin layer of top coat and allow it to dry completely. Then you can paint your fingernails with a trendy nail polish color of your choice. Whether bright pink, sky blue or beige – whatever you like is allowed.
The black lines
This step requires some sensitivity and patience. But as the saying goes – good things take time. Take a thin nail brush and apply the black nail polish completely around the nail. Give yourself time and try to work as cleanly as possible. If something goes wrong, unfortunately no correction pen will help you, as it will also erase the base color.
Comic Nails: Creating light reflections and shades
The 3D look at Comic Nails is only created through the perfect shading. For the optical illusion, the illusion of a shadow is first created on one side of the nail with a darker shade of the base color. On the opposite side, the light reflections are drawn in with a white nail art brush. Here too, you should give yourself enough time and not rush anything. If you are satisfied with the result, you can seal the manicure with a layer of top coat. And voilà – your cool comic nails are ready!
