Got a Case of Spring Fever? We’ve Got the Cure With These Nail Styles We’re Loving for Spring 2020
Okay, we know it’s still *technically* winter, but we’re already planning for spring 2020’s hottest nail styles. Why? Because as of early February, everyone’s been talking about it (thanks, Fashion Week).I mean, don’t get us wrong, winter’s still loaded with gorgeous nail art to try as soon as possible—in fact, there’s still time to sport these winter white and metallic looks. But lately, we’re in a bright-stripe, creamy-matte, animal-print kind of mood. Can you blame us? Well, you definitely won’t after you catch a glance at these beauties. Keep scrolling for seven spring 2020 nail styles to copy ASAP!
1. Show Your Stripes
Photo by @beautybyheatherniccole It’s no secret that spring 2020’s nail trends are all about having fun. Case in point: these rainbow stripes. No need to keep ‘em straight either—go wild with zigzags and curves! And, hey, we wouldn’t hate it if you mixed those stripes with a little sparkle, seen here.
2. Rich Browns

If you’re one to go against the tide (so counterculture), stand out amongst the bright, pastel colors of spring with this rich, neutral hue (Bonus: add animal prints, too! But more on that later…).
3. Creamy, Matte Hues

Also, there’s no obligation to stick to taupe or beige—creamy oranges and pinks are totally on the table, too. Oh, and the best way to get that extra delicious texture? Matte all the way, babe.
4. Animal Print

That’s because animal prints are going strong throughout 2020. From all-over leopard to cheetah chic, tortoise details and even cow print (yes, really!), these ultra-posh designs are taking Instagram and your salon by storm.
5. Metallic Magic
Photo by @_nailsbyoliviaHeavy metal is the name of the game this spring, best paired with ultra-long nail shapes (but hey, we love short nails, too). Whether you choose to sport a full set of metallic tips or accent on just one finger, you’re way ahead of this spring’s biggest trend. To that we say, high shine and oh-so-fine.
6. Barely-There Polish
Photo by @beautybyheatherniccoleSimplicity at its best. We don’t blame you for doing a double-take on these beauties—upon first glance, this look is almost non-existent, but in the best possible way. This barely-there style pairs perfectly against clean, healthy nails. If you’re a big fan of minimal polish, spring 2020 is your moment, babe.
7. Negative Space
Photo by @lacquerby_laceyCall the doctor stat, because this look is giving us major spring fever—negative space is about to take over your salon in just a matter of months. True, this style of manicure is nothing new, but something about an artsy splash of blue hues makes the trend feel super fresh and very new.Which style are you loving for spring this year?
