How to choose a nail shape
Round, square, almond, coffin or stiletto: what suits short nails, long fingers and busy hands.

The shape changes a set more than the color does. A quick guide from the chair.
- Round is the easiest to live with: no corners to catch, perfect for short nails.
- Square looks crisp and modern, and suits wide nail beds.
- Almond makes fingers look longer and is the most requested shape at the studio.
- Coffin is a long, tapered square with a flat tip, made for art and ombre.
- Stiletto is bold and pointed; we keep it short for everyday wear.
