I always struggle picking what nails to have!

One thing is I don't like them to look tacky - which design looks classiest?

Pointy

I prefer the classic French, the first ones to me look strange and I've never been a fan of them.

OrangeJeans · 22/08/2024 22:01

Not pointy

PilgorTheGoat · 22/08/2024 22:01

I think square tips look a bit naff these days x

I@DustyLee123 pointy do you mean the first photo?

@PilgorTheGoat I hear you - those are soft squares though

PilgorTheGoat · 22/08/2024 22:03

will they be your own nails or are you having extensions?

Second French tip one. But maybe not so dazzlingly white.

MyOtherCarisAVauxhallZafira · 22/08/2024 22:04

I prefer something like this

First photo

French, out of those two.

If combining is an option, id go length of the french, with the colouring of the other one. To me pointy nails don't look great and long nails aren't classy. But french can look a bit too classic. Nude short nails, in a shape the suits your fingers is probably the classiest imo

SummerSplashing · 22/08/2024 22:07

Second with an even softer square! Ie not square at all

French tip nails.
The pointy pictured ones, to me, are not classy.

PilgorTheGoat · 22/08/2024 22:11

Can we see your actual nails? I feel like some people suit one shape and some others.

nurseryconfusion · 22/08/2024 22:12

I think it's very personal. I find French tips quite tacky but some love them. Would go for the first ones

notaurewhatusername · 22/08/2024 22:13

@PilgorTheGoat my fingers are long and slim, but I have wide nail beds so find full square don't suit me so I've been going for squoval shape a lot lately

The ombre colour of the first with the shape of the second.

notaurewhatusername · 22/08/2024 22:14

Perhaps these instead?

Couldn’t have put this better 😂 ‘naff’ is such an underrated word

GeorgesMarvelousCalpol · 22/08/2024 22:18

French

Pointy is never classy.
