What colours are your Christmas nails going to be?

If you’re getting them! I have just done a nail tech course and hoping to earn a little bit extra this Christmas and beyond and I’m wondering what colours to buy. I’ve got a shimmery red and a glittery green. I’m looking at a silver and a gold glitter too. Any others you are tempted by that I could buy to get people tempted to get their nails done this Christmas.

@19lottie82 who made you the forum police? Christ OP, don't apologise to her! Post where you want - who cares?

I'd go solid red, midnight blue, black and glitters too

Calm down love.

KylieCharlene · 17/11/2022 17:43

Definitely midnight blue.
I also love a rouge noir and jewel colours like emerald and a dark amethyst.

These!

LOVE these! I want them!

TheBirdintheCave · 17/11/2022 17:44

Glittery red I think :) I'm not very adventurous when it comes to nails!

Make sure you have a red that's a proper pillar box red for Christmas nails.

I also like French nails with glitter on the tips at Christmas.

Primroseprimula · 17/11/2022 17:49

A purplish red bordeux colour.

A dark forest Christmas tree green

AlwaysLatte · 17/11/2022 17:55

I don't think that's unreasonable at all! I love a Christmassy manicure.

MistressWeatherwax1 · 17/11/2022 17:57

Very glittery gold to go with my green velvet midi dress for Xmas day

brigittei · 17/11/2022 17:59

Yanbu

Gold glitter

Are Christmas nails a thing?

TheProvincialLady · 17/11/2022 18:02

Nail coloured but with bits of mincemeat and sellotape under the tips.

RandomUsernameHere · 17/11/2022 18:02

Silver sparkly (like the first one on the photo a pp posted)

MistletoeandBaileys · 17/11/2022 18:12

Oh I like the idea of the black glitter!! But I’m getting mine done Saturday and doing the sparkly red then! Then the week before Christmas I’m getting green and gold! 😊

Thanks all. Lots of lovely ideas. Just hoping I can drum up some Christmas business.

There are nice white, grey and silver winter snowflake designs that I might get in January.

Was there meant to be a picture? I would love to see them!

Though I'm going to have a sheer, subtle gold glitter, if there is such a thing.

I like the festive colours like green, red, gold etc but I also like dark blue and silver designs at Christmas. Different but still festive

These are gorgeous. I may go for a red on the next few days but wasn’t sure if it’s too soon but you’ve convinced me it’s not.
