TikTok Nail Trends Your Clients Will Love

TikTok has taken the world by storm, becoming a platform where trends spread like wildfire, and in the beauty world of nail art, that is for good reason. TikTok has become the reason for a lot of exciting new trends that we guarantee your clients will be asking for. In this blog post, Dolla Nails Pro will dive into some of the hottest nail designs that are going viral on TikTok at the moment so you can up your nail game and provide these up and coming services.

Aura Nails

Aura nails are a captivating and ethereal trend that has gained popularity on NailTok. Inspired by the mystical concept of auras, these nails aim to capture the essence of one's energy and personality through vibrant and mesmerising designs. Aura nails often feature a blend of gel nail polishes, creating a mesmerising play of colours. Aura nails are similar to ombre nails but they are created in a vignette style in which the centre point is the middle of the nail. These nails can be further enhanced with motifs, such as stars, moons, or galaxies, to elevate the vibe. We love aura nails created using pink nail polish and orange nail polish… give it a try with the Dolla Nails Good Girl and Peachy. The combo is gorgeous and bound to make for happy clients.

Abstract Nail Art

TikTok nail lovers are obsessed with abstract nail art, allowing nail enthusiasts to unleash their creativity and create one-of-a-kind designs. This gel nails trend has been around for a while but isn’t showing any signs of slowing down! Whether it's bold geometric shapes, swirly patterns, or splashes of vibrant colours, abstract nail art offers endless possibilities to suit whatever your client wants. This trend is also a great way to elevate coloured French gel nails - it’s the perfect balance between elegant and fun for those who love simplicity but also fancy something a little bit different. To create stunning abstract designs, we recommend a sturdy Liner Brush that is bound to make your designs bold.

Gradient Ombré Nails

Ombré nails have been another favourite for years, but TikTok has given this trend a new life with new and exciting gradient ombré designs. These nails showcase a seamless transition from one colour to another, creating a stunning fading effect. Whether you prefer soft pastels, vibrant neons, or moody dark shades, gradient ombré nails can be created with any two gel colours (or more if your client is adventurous). This is another trend that looks gorgeous as a French tip. It’s a more subtle way of including Ombré and creates the most stunning sets! Make sure to use an Ombré Nail Brush for these designs, it will make your gel polish application simple and easy.

Negative Space Nails

Negative space nail designs have gained huge popularity on NailTok due to their minimalist yet eye-catching look. This trend involves leaving strategic sections of the nail bare while incorporating intricate patterns, shapes, or colours. The result is a modern and yet futuristic look that combines simplicity with creativity. Whether you opt for negative space French tips, geometric cutouts, or delicate line work, negative space nails are so aesthetically pleasing.

Jelly Nails

Jelly nails offer a semi-translucent look that mimics the appearance of jelly. This trend can also be called ‘Milky Nails’ and involves using a gel colour that is not completely opaque which creates that dewy look. You can also create a milky nail polish with any of your standard gel nail colours by simply mixing it with a couple of drops of clear glossy topcoat to create that sheer effect. Milky nails are the new clean girl look and everyone is loving the freshness they bring to their manicure. ‘Blueberry Milk’ nails are about to be the newest version of this trend, so get ahead of the curve and try mixing Kiss and Tell with a little bit of the Dolla Nails Diamond Top Coat.

3D Embellishments

TikTok has embraced the concept of 3D embellishments, taking nail art to a whole new level. From rhinestones and pearls to metal charms and chains, nail artists are incorporating a variety of elements to create eye-catching and dimensional designs. Another way of jumping on this trend is by using a cover base gel to create a 3D shape, curing it and then painting over it with your desired colour or chrome powder. This looks amazing with the Dolla Nails Pro golden Enigma or silvery Moonstone it creates the perfect accent!
