Five Great Reasons to Try Bright Nails
Just like Pimms, beach holidays, and BBQs in the garden, some things are just better when the sun is shining. The same goes for bold, bright nails, which are taking the season by storm.
From all-over colour to fun and vibrant embellishments, super-bright colours are one of the top trends of the summer, and it’s easy to see why. With hundreds of ways to try the style, nailing the look is an easy, fun, and carefree way to treat yourself.
So, what’s it all about?
Clients are increasingly looking for brighter colours while the sun shines, and celebs are sporting the look too. A bold, bright nail colour can be anything from a light summery hue, like sky blue or vibrant pink, to a daring and eye-catching neon.
Super-bright colours sometimes have a bad rep, but in reality there’s a huge spectrum of juicy shades to choose from, whether your style is all-out fun or super relaxed. In short: instead of greys, pastels, and ‘natural’ colours, think 80s workouts, nights out, and playfulness!
How do I wear it?
The bright/neon nails trend is incredibly flexible, which means you can embrace it however you want. If you don’t fancy all-over coverage, you could go for eye-catching tips, bright embellishments, or neon nail art instead. From electric blue to a splash of bright pink over a muted background, it’s all part of the look. Basically, if it’s bright it’s right!
Five reasons to embrace the look
1. Celebs love it
In a recent edition of Glamour, celebrity manicurist Lucy Tucker - who has worked with the likes of Lady Gaga and Selena Gomez - named neon colour accents one of the trends of the summer. Even fashion maverick Harry Styles has been spotted with bright nails. If it’s good enough for him, sign us up!
2. Bright nails work for everyone (really!)
If you’re not sure whether bright colours are right for you, it’s worth looking at some of the amazing options anyway. After all, bright doesn’t necessarily mean neon, and even taking your go-to colour two shades brighter will give you a boost. Ninety percent of the time there’s a fun, summery shade that’s perfect for you - it’s just waiting for you to find it.
3. It’s a low-effort way to embrace summer
Bright shades work all year round, but there’s something about a zingy pop of colour that screams ‘summer’. Even when you can’t be bothered to get dressed up (joggers and a t-shirt to the shops, anyone?) a pop of neon can make all the difference without any of the effort.
4. This is the perfect time to try something new
With big social gatherings off the menu and more time spent indoors, this is the perfect time to take the plunge and try something different just for yourself. You can experiment with brighter colours without the pressure, and you might even surprise yourself by finding your new go-to look.
Top tip: Nail designs are also increasing in popularity, especially simple ones. Why not try them in a bright new shade at the same time?
5. Bright colours are the ultimate mood booster
The colours that surround us have a big effect on our mood, and the ones we choose for ourselves are no exception. All colours have different characteristics, but when they’re bright and bold they’re always fun, light-hearted, and playful. A little mood booster right at your fingertips? Yes please!
