Basic rules for nail shaping
Some advices to help you shape your nails!
It doesn’t matter if one has long, slender or short, stumpy fingers. One can always beautify the hands by growing, cutting, trimming, shaping and polishing one’s nails. The nail shape that best suits one’s hand should be taken up. The two nail proportions i.e. length and width should be kept in mind. Nails should always be longer than wider. Square nails always make the fingers long shorter, on the other hand, rectangular or a little circular nail shape makes the fingers appear longer. If you have thick/ short fingers, then star growing your nails. Before giving your nails a proper shape, make sure that they have grown considerably. Another technique to give your nails an elongated and flat look is to never apply the nail polish on the edges. Leave a millimeter at the edges, thus, giving your nails a less thick appearance.Types of nail shapes
