Wire Nails – A New Trend in Nail Art
While Paris and Milan dictate global fashion, the most important worldwide nail trends, such as those involving wire nails, are created by Eun Kyung Park in her Seoul salon.
She introduced #brokenglassnails, minimalist geometry, and “bracelet nails” into fashion.
Now, the hottest craze among South Korean fashionistas is Wired Nails, or nails made of wire.
This design is unique and created individually for each client. First, the pattern itself is made from thin gold wire, then it is fixed onto the nail with transparent gel polish. After that, the gel must be allowed to dry, and another layer of transparent gel polish is applied on top to secure the construction. Special attention should be paid to firmly fastening the edges of the wire so it doesn’t catch on clothing. Wire nails look weightless and very futuristic.
It won’t be long before Instagram is filled with manicures featuring this design from artists all over the world, because Eun Park is truly a nail trendsetter. Her Instagram is @nail_unistella, and it’s definitely the page you need to follow to stay updated on all the latest nail design trends.
By the way, at the same time Eun became fascinated with using flocking on 3D nail elements and with perforation, which once used to be in fashion.
Well, fashion is cyclical — maybe something from the past will inspire you to create a masterpiece too?
