We all remember those times when too long, sharp or square nails were in fashion. But time passes, fashion changes, and today something else is considered relevant. Naturalness, conciseness, naturalness - this is what designers adhere to in everything, from clothes, shoes, accessories to makeup and manicure. Therefore, we suggest taking a closer look at the fashion trends in short nail design for 2022.
Key Design Trends
The length of nails in 2022 should be short, but this concept may be slightly different for each girl. Therefore, we note that the length should not exceed 4 mm. As for the shape, you can give your nails absolutely any shape, based on your own preferences. The main thing is to maintain naturalness in everything.
The color scheme has some contradictions. On the one hand, delicate, pastel shades are at the peak of popularity. They give your nails a beautiful and feminine look. And this once again proves that restrained shades can be no less sophisticated than bright red or black.

Coating color
A lot actually depends on the tone with which the nail plate is covered. There are two extremes on this issue. Either the color of the nails is chosen spontaneously, or it is planned long before the coating. Very often, girls and women get a manicure for a specific event. Also, nails are often covered with unobtrusive shades, thus trying to create the effect of maximum naturalness, which at the same time also looks quite well-groomed. So, let's look at the most popular coating shades:
Red. This is a timeless nail classic. Depending on personal preferences, all existing shades of red are used, from coral to dark burgundy. Red color looks appropriate with almost any outfit, you just have to choose the right shade. Wine shades have become popular recently because they have a very sophisticated color and look flawless on almost any nail. In addition, such shades are in harmony with both dark and light clothes.
All shades of flesh and light brown, mocha. This manicure always turns out to be gentle and unobtrusive, since the coating is as close as possible to the natural color of the nail and therefore suits almost any outfit. The main problem with such shades of nails is that they do not draw attention to themselves when worn. So, using exactly this color scheme, be prepared for the fact that your amazing manicure will not be noticed right away and, perhaps, not by everyone.
White. Recently, white color in manicure has been gaining popularity not only as a French manicure, but also as an independent tone. The main trend for summer 2022 is a matte white finish. Of course, this color looks most advantageous on dark skin, then it seems incredibly bright and radiant. In addition, it perfectly complements light-colored clothing, so you need to choose the color of the coating taking into account your wardrobe. In addition, if you emphasize one nail in such a manicure by adding a pattern or slider to it, this will make the design incredibly stylish and fashionable. This particular manicure on short nails looks very appropriate, gentle and neat. You can also use a French manicure as a design, covering several nails in the same tone, and a few with a design.
Black. The complete opposite of white, but also a very popular color. In 2022, the photo of the new product in black surprised everyone. Black is often considered a mournful color, but this does not prevent you from creating a fashionable manicure. Black goes with almost all colors, and it also goes with absolutely any clothes.
