Nails white jacket

A white jacket is a kind of manicure when the edge of the nail is painted white, and the plate is covered with a pale pink or beige varnish. This manicure is suitable for both natural and accentuated nails of any shape, and harmonizes with almost any style.

Features of a white jacket on short nails

This kind of manicure is universal and well suited as an everyday manicure on short nails, giving them a neat, well-groomed look.

It is believed that the white jacket fits any shape of the nails , but if their length is small, the oval-shaped nails look more advantageous, on which the white band (sometimes called a smile), is dyed thin enough, in a semicircle that comes along the sides of the nail.

On short square nails a white jacket can easily be damaged by a too thick white line, because of which the nail is visually shortened, and its uneven shape.

In general, for short nails, the width of the white strip should be 1-2 millimeters and repeat the shape of the nail, that is, be straight or oval.

Nails white jacket with pattern and rhinestones

In addition to the classic white jacket, other options are possible, including various drawings and nail decoration with rhinestones. But with short nails should be careful not to manicure overloaded. It is better to choose a pattern that is unobtrusive, consisting of fine lines, and does not cover the entire nail plate. In the case of crystals, it is desirable not to glue them in large quantities, and not on all the nails, but to confine oneself to individual ornaments.

To date, many complement the classic version of manicure with various decorative elements that allow you to create your own unique image.

Most often for the painting of nails use floral patterns. In this case, drawings made in monochrome, and especially applied to white (under the color of the tip of the nail) or black, look more strictly and elegantly. Such a manicure is suitable for a business lady, and for attending official events, and for a date. In the same technique, a wedding manicure is often performed, with a drawing of an exclusively white color.

Among the other colors for drawing the picture on the nails with a white jacket, most often use different shades of pink, blue and lilac.

Recently, more and more popular with the decoration of nails use the options of a white jacket with rhinestones and sequins. Often, a line of a smile is highlighted with strasses, individual pebbles are glued on the edge of one or more nails or, conversely, at the base of the nail.
