Red and orange manicure for Halloween
According to statistics, on the eve of Halloween, orange shares the palm with red nail polish of all shades. At other times of the year, very few people use red varnish. The popularity of this color is largely due to the main symbol of the holiday - the pumpkin. As for the manicure itself, there are two coating options: for conservatives - a single color, and for nail liberals - using these colors to create a French (regular or with design elements) or ombre.

Black can compete with red and orange. For those who do not like a single-color coating and cannot stand an extraordinary design, but at the same time want a non-standard manicure, advice: cover the top of the nail plate with black varnish, and the inside of the nail with red. A nail variation on the theme of black Louboutins with a red sole is a great alternative to a regular manicure that you’ll want to look at.

Fashion trends in 2022
— In the fall, we change not only our image, I mean wardrobe, but also our manicure. Summer colors such as blue, light green, fuchsia fade into the background in manicure, they just have to wait for spring. Glitter is also not suitable - it’s their time in the New Year. These shades of varnish are being replaced by many other colors - for example, the classic red is always in fashion, brown, dark green and nude. These colors will make your seasonal manicure stylish and luxurious at the same time,” says Anna Ruben, a manicurist and pedicurist, studio founder and manicure instructor.
Colors
Nude autumn manicure
As Anna Ruben notes, naturalness is now in fashion! And a nude manicure will look great at any time of the year, and especially in the fall. A huge advantage of this manicure is that the nails are not conspicuous, and the hands look well-groomed. A nude manicure can be perfectly complemented by foil, rubbing, stickers and even sparkles to create a stylish nail design.
Red classic
Classic red nail polish always attracts attention. It is in fashion 24/7, from season to season! This is the color of vigor, health and self-confidence. It is chosen mainly by bright girls, capable of spontaneous and very bold actions, who are not afraid to attract unnecessary attention to their person. The manicurist notes that red polish color is the fastest to end in the palette!
Dark manicure
The autumn manicure of any modern girl consists of several colors - dark green, brown, beige, burgundy, purple, gray, mustard. A manicure in these colors will only complement your cool look. The most trendy color in manicure in the fall of 2022 is green. It will look great with autumn looks. Brown shades will complement the look with a wool sweater, adding coziness and warmth to it. Well, burgundy needs no introduction - this noble and deep color will come in handy with absolutely any look.
Orange is the color of autumn
Bright orange is also in fashion. Just not neon (this is a summer shade), but deep and warm. It will also suit any look and will go well with nail designs - rhinestones, leaf designs or just patterns.
Design
— “Natural” is in fashion, so rhinestones and bright, tacky designs fade into the background. Now it’s fashionable to cover your nails with just a color and that’s it, without embellishment. Everything else faded into the background. However, designs on nails, and especially autumn ones, have not been canceled! It will be very fashionable to draw minimalist autumn leaves on 1-2 fingers of one hand. This is enough,” continues the specialist.
Nail shape
There are currently only two shapes of nails in fashion - if they are long, then the almond shape, short ones - a soft square.
— Very long, sharp, and even more so extended nails are a thing of the past. Now girls are “divided” into only two types - almond and soft square, and this is great. It looks well-groomed, rich, stylish,” says expert Anna.
