Simple nail design with a deer head on gel polish
You can come up with a New Year's manicure with the image of deer in various variations: draw these animals in full growth, make a whole picture on the nails, imitation of animals harnessed to a sleigh, and so on. But most often, girls prefer to draw only the head of a deer, and not just a simple one, but a real cartoon character - Rudolph.
A New Year's manicure with Rudolph's head is easy to do. To do this, you don’t even need to have drawing skills; the head is drawn simply. But first you need to go through the basic steps:
- Prepare your nails for design: file, even out their length, remove cuticles, and buff over the plate.
- Paint your nails with gel polish of the chosen color in one or two layers, dry your fingers in a UV lamp.
- Now you can start drawing the deer’s head: first make an outline with a thin brush and draw the antlers. Use red gel polish to make a large nose for the deer and draw eyes. If it seems that the decor is not enough, then you can add other elements: make snowflakes, confetti, draw the head of Santa Claus, and so on.
- Dry your fingers in a lamp. Apply top coat and return to the lamp. Remove the sticky layer.
Please note that when making a large drawing with a deer's head, you do not need to overdo it. It is enough to decorate one or two nails with Rudolph, and cover the rest with plain gel polish.
Manicure tools
For manicure you will need the following materials:
- flat brush for painting large details and mixing paints;
- a thin brush for drawing small details and creating contours;
- primer, base and top coat, gel polish (the most commonly used is burgundy, red, blue or light blue);
- acrylic or gel paints (brown, black, gray or white);
- bamboo sticks for correcting unevenness;
- Cleanser for degreasing coatings.
Nail design is created only on prepared nails. At the first stage, you need to give the desired shape to the nail plates and remove the cuticles.
Manicure in Scandinavian style with deer
Popular Norwegian patterns on warm things: sweaters, jackets, hats, scarves, mittens are transferred by nail artists to New Year's manicures. Authentic patterns with geometry, animals, and plant patterns are firmly established in nail art. And if earlier Norwegian winter patterns were made in various color combinations, then recently such color tandems as red and white, scarlet and gray have become popular. A bright, burning manicure in the Norwegian style with deer can be done manually or using special stickers. For newcomers to the nail industry or those girls who are not in the mood for drawing, stylists recommend doing a manicure using ready-made stickers.
Let's take a step-by-step look at how to make a manicure with deer designs in the Norwegian style on gel polish:
Step 1
We give the nails the desired shape, make them the same length, push back the cuticle. We go over the plate with a buff to ensure the durability of the manicure in the future.
Step 2
Apply a base layer. It is not recommended to skip this point. The base will hide all the irregularities and flaws of the plate, resulting in a perfect drawing.
Step 3
We paint our nails with red shellac. But if the idea is to apply stencil stickers completely to the entire plate, then we paint the nails with transparent gel polish.
Step 4
We take a ready-made stencil and cut out the selected element in the Norwegian style with scissors. Soak the back side of the slider (where there is no pattern) in nail polish remover. Simply apply acetone to a napkin and carefully place the stencils on it.
Step 5
We apply a top coat to the nail, do not dry the finger in the lamp, but immediately apply the prepared stencil. Using an orange stick, smooth out the pattern so that there is no air left under it. Dry your finger in the lamp for 1 minute.
Step 6
We remove excess stickers: we file off the stencil from the end of the nail with a nail file, and remove the stickers from the nail bed using scissors and tweezers. Apply a fixative on top in one or two layers. Dry your fingers in a UV lamp.

Outline drawings with noble animals
If you want your nail design to resemble a New Year's one, but at the same time not seem childish, then do not draw the deer's face, only draw the outline of the animal. Then the manicure will not seem funny and childish, and the New Year's style will be respected.
If you have a talent for drawing, then it won’t cost you anything to carefully draw the outline of a deer on your nail. But those girls who have never held brushes and paints in their hands should not be sad. With the help of modern decorative elements you can create any design. Stencils with animals come to the rescue; you just need to attach them to the top coat, paint the core with a white stencil or another varnish, depending on what color you want to make the deer. And secure the resulting pattern on top with a layer of colorless varnish.
To ensure that the design remains smooth and clear, after applying the varnish, the stencil must be removed as soon as possible.
Geometry on short nails
This nail length remains the most fashionable and popular this year. When designing, you should use a soft or dark color palette, do not overload your manicure with decor, and decorate two to four nails on each hand. Feel free to choose the style and type of geometry from those presented below. For example, implement color block, stamping, a graphic image of a flower or large glitter in the form of circles on one nail. What's fashionable.
Fairytale nail design with deer
Those girls who want to stand out from the crowd, cheer up themselves and those around them, get a bright, colorful New Year's manicure, where the main “scenery heroes” are deer from such cartoons: “Bambi”, “Silver Hoof”, “New Year’s Journey”, “ Brave little deer."
If you draw such drawings and even entire paintings yourself, then spare no expense and buy high-quality gel polishes. On a regular varnish coating, all the New Year's beauty will quickly turn into numerous cracks and chips, and you will regret that you spent so long fiddling with your nails. And with gel polish, your New Year's nail design will delight you throughout the New Year holidays. In addition to stickers, you can create this New Year’s manicure with noble animals using the stamping technique.
For this option of recreating deer on nails, you will need the following tools and materials: - silicone stamp; — plates with drawings of animals (discs for stamping); — a scraper or an unnecessary bank card; - gel polishes; - top.
The nail design with deer is performed step by step using the stamping technique as follows:
Step 1
Gel polish of the selected color is applied to the prepared nails, and the fingers are dried in a lamp.
Step 2
A white or other color gel polish is applied to the selected deer design. Using a scraper, the enamel is evenly distributed throughout the entire design. Then a silicone stamp is taken and the pattern is imprinted. This design is immediately applied to the nail. Excess varnish is removed using a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover.
Step 3
The marigolds are covered with a layer of topcoat and dried in a UV lamp.
It is recommended to resort to the stamping technique if the idea is to apply the same designs to several nails.
