Once, only teenage girls could afford painted nails. Then this fashion turned in the opposite direction, giving glamorous girls with incomes above the average with drawings on the nails . Painted nails were related more to status than to style.
Today everything has changed. We often see stylish and spectacular nails in a variety of women. The number of various ideas for design can not but rejoice. And the recent general enthusiasm for owls, of course, was reflected in the nail design. Therefore, today we’ll talk about owl manicure.
This idea is still quite fresh and unbroken; for its implementation, you can apply many different techniques. Some of them allow you to make a beautiful manicure with an owl even with your own hands.
Preparatory work
Before you start decorating, carry out the necessary hygiene procedures. Give the nails the desired shape, be sure to ensure that all ten have the same length. Sand with a nail file.
Apply special oil to the cuticle, treat with the appropriate tool.
Owl on a twig
To make a manicure with an owl, which you see in the next photo, some art skills are needed.
If you practice drawing pictures on a draft, the result on the nails will be much more accurate. Step-by-step instructions will help you understand all the intricacies of the process.
- Coat the primary color on the nails of both hands. Let it dry completely.
- Draw the outline of an owl figurine on the nail of the middle finger. Use a thin brush and black polish.
- Paint the body white. Let it dry.
- A manicure with an owl will look spectacular if you detail the bird. Draw black wings, feathers, eyes.
- Use the same brush to continue working on other nails. The branch on which the owl sits will also pass through two adjacent nails. You can add flowers and leaves.
It is up to you to draw a symmetrical owl on the second hand. Perhaps a few twigs with leaves will suffice?
Portrait
The next manicure with an owl pattern looks very impressive. The theme of "special nail" is played here. Apply a base coat - white varnish, wait until it dries. Using the applicator and black polish, make a gradient on all nails except the nameless ones. In the middle of the “special nail” draw a thin black beak and a pair of yellow eyes. Add black feathers to all nails.
Juicy colors
Summer is an ideal time to do manicure with owls, the photo of which is presented below.
You will need 4 varnishes: white, black, two bright. For example, saturated blue and grassy green. Apply white nail polish one nail on each hand, and while they dry, apply blue and green nail polish on the remaining nails in random order. Draw one owl blue, the second green. Use the same method that we talked about above.
Ready-made pictures
A great solution for those who have just begun to learn how to make a beautiful manicure with an owl - decals. They are very common, you can easily find them in any store of goods for manicure.
Strictly follow the instructions supplied by the manufacturer. You can decorate all 10 nails, and some of them. This jewelry goes well with a colored jacket and moon manicure. Decals have a number of advantages:
- low price;
- prevalence;
- low time costs;
- a huge number of stories;
- small details that cannot be painted with a brush.
Gel polish
If all the work is in vain and the result of your own art does not suit you, and the search for suitable decals has failed, do not despair. There is another way to get the desired manicure with owls. Gel polish and a professional master of nail design are able to realize any dreams. Turn to a professional, design together and rely on the experience of the master.
Shellac coating of nails is not only very beautiful and neat, but also practical. An owl painted with ordinary varnish will “live” at best 3-4 days, but varnish gel will save you from worries about nails for at least a couple of weeks.
