Just remember that when choosing the ideal shape for you nails, which will give your hands a special grace, you need to adhere to the following professional recommendations:

1. The shape of the nails should match the shape of the toes. If the nails are of different length, then the optimal length is determined by the length of the shortest and the others are cut to its level. Ideal is the shape of the nail, which mirrors the fold of the cuticle at its base.

2. The shape of the nails should visually lengthen the fingers, emphasizing the femininity of the image. It should be remembered that the sharper and longer the nail, the more visually the fingers look thinner, the more round shape is attached to the nails, the shorter they look.
