Summer Trends 2025: What Manicurists Should Know Now
Summer 2025 promises to be bright, bold, and technological. If you want to be on the cutting edge and offer your customers the most current designs, here is a selection of trends that are already taking over the world's salons.
Chrome and mirror finishes
Glossy, metallic and pearlescent effects are a must-have this summer. From silver to lavender chrome, these finishes add a futuristic shine to any look. They look best on almond-shaped or oval faces.
Watercolor and transparent designs
“Glass” nails with light blue or pink shades create the effect of water depth. Ideal for those looking for something delicate and unusual, but not overloaded with details. Such a design looks very expensive and fresh.
Aura design
Soft gradients that mimic energy fields have become popular due to their uniqueness and deep meaning. Done with an airbrush or sponge, they are ideal for clients who want something unusual but harmonious.
Micro-jacket
Thin lines on the tips of the nails are an elegant alternative to the classic French. They are especially popular in pastel or neon shades. The thinner the line, the more expensive the work looks. Neatness and symmetry are worth their weight in gold here.
3D elements and textures
Volumetric details, such as pearls, shells or drops, add depth and individuality to the design. It is important to use high-quality materials for reliable fixation, and not to forget about balance - so that the nail art does not become "overloaded".
Fruit and floral motifs
Miniature drawings of berries, citrus fruits or flowers add a summery mood and playfulness. These are the same designs that lift your spirits at first sight - and look great on both short and long nails.
Tips for craftsmen:
- Education: Learn new techniques, such as airbrushing or working with chrome powders.
- Materials: Invest in quality gel polishes, chrome powders, and 3D decor.
- Portfolio: Regularly update your work on social media using popular hashtags.
- Customer service: Offer new products to customers and explain why this particular design will suit them.
Completion
Summer is a time for experimentation, color, and creativity . So allow yourself to go beyond the basics and inspire your clients with new looks. Relevance is not just a trend, it's a feeling of the moment. And you can give it to them.
