With the rise of the girly girl and the subsequent coquette aesthetic, it’s no surprise that bow nails are gaining momentum.

Hair bows have been a must-have accessory this year, and now the playful trend has evolved to include painting bows – big or small – on your nails as an accent feature crafted from polish, decals or gems. Dainty and delightful, the look can be adjusted to create a bold, bright design or a subtle, sweet finish.

Tinu Bello, manicurist and senior ambassador at Mylee, is on hand to help you nail the look either at home or in the salon.

“Bow nails have become popular for good reason, thanks to their visual aesthetic and versatility,” Bello says. “Known for adding a flair of femininity and elegance to your mani, bows make a statement while maintaining a sense of delicacy and softness.”
