I’m a short-nails girl through and through. Whether I’m typing at work, running errands or lifting weights, short nails make everything so much easier—no snagging, no bending.
That doesn’t mean I’m boring with my choice of nail trends, though. I’m of the opinion that short nails can look fun without wandering into stumpy finger territory.
1. Mint Hearts
This whisper of green is a cute way to shake up your micro nail art mani.
2. Ice Pink
I love this iridescent ice pink that looks clean, glossy and glowing.
3. Minimalist Disco
Who says glitter is just for festivals? This minimalist manicure proves otherwise.
4. Mint Tips
These minty fresh tips are just bold enough to feel like a reset for the season.
5. Pistachio
Soft pistachio on abbreviated lengths looks impeccably refined.
6. Hot Orange
This neon orange packs a fruity punch.
7. Red in Reverse
There’s something about a fire-engine red and one perfect white dot—it’s minimal, but not at all basic.
8. Abstract Pastels
These pastel tulip-esque nails are giving spring.
9. Tattoo Style
This micro tattoo energy has a cool rebellious feel.
10. Giraffe Print
Giraffe print is perfect for those who are totally over tortoise shell.
11. Singular Dots
One dot is all it takes.
