Without fail, a new year introduces a fresh wave of nail trends. For minimalists and nail art obsessives alike, this presents an opportunity for a total refresh. Because after donning festive, sometimes over-the-top holiday nail looks, the prospect of a clean slate and new creative energy is thrilling.
“It’s so exciting to embark on a new year of trends because it’s a complete mindset and vibe reset,” says Olivia Van Iderstine, vice president of content and creative at Olive & June. “It encourages us to bring out colors we haven’t used before, experiment with nail art and textures, and embrace a new season.”
“The color of 2024 for manis is for sure blue,” says Van Iderstine. “Particularly in the beginning of the year and through Spring, we’ll see lots of soft, muted pale blues.”
“The 3D technique involves raised designs on the nails using a variety of materials like acrylic, gel, or resin,” says Haye. “Highly skilled artists use tools and materials that add depth and uniqueness to the nail design.”
