Why Nail Shape Matters More Than You Think
Not all press-on nails feel the same—and the reason often comes down to nail shape.
Choosing a style that matches your natural nail curve can make a big difference in comfort, durability, and overall look.
Common Nail Shapes & What Works Best
Flat Nail Beds
- Look for thinner press-on nails
- Flexible materials help avoid lifting
- Short to medium lengths work best
Curved Nail Beds
- Medium-curve press-ons provide a secure fit
- Avoid overly flat designs that pop off easily
Wide Nail Beds
- Choose sets with more size options
- Square or squoval shapes offer better coverage
Narrow Nail Beds
- Almond and oval styles elongate the fingers
- Avoid overly wide tips
Length & Shape Tips for Everyday Wear
- Short / Medium length = more natural and comfortable
- Squoval or almond shapes = versatile for daily life
- Neutral colors are easier to match with outfits
