Creating their image, girls pay great attention to the nails on their arms and legs. Glossy nails faded into the background and gave way to a matte pedicure. This coating has a variety of design options and many colors. At the same time, voluminous decoration on nails with a matte finish looks better than with gloss.
Girls should choose a matte pedicure so that it harmonizes with the style and is at the same time fashionable.
What pedicure happens?
There are two types of pedicure: classic and hardware.
A classic pedicure is performed by steaming and cutting off the coarsened skin of the legs (coarsened skin on the heels, corns, corns, etc.). All that is unnecessary is cleaned with blades, scissors and special abrasive products.
However, this procedure has its drawbacks.
Girls note a few:
- after the procedure, a feeling of thin skin appears;
- soreness in the early days;
- high probability of infection;
- short-lived result.
In this case, the toenails are trimmed, and they are given the necessary shape for further coating.
Hardware pedicure is carried out using a special machine. She polishes the skin not as rough as manual devices do. When the hardware is not required, steaming of the skin is not required, the machine does not injure the skin and provides a lasting result. This is possible due to the fact that the grinding nozzle of the machine makes about 600 revolutions per minute.
In studios, pedicure masters can do both methods, the choice is made by the client himself.
Fashion trends
Matte pedicures can be of various colors and shades that look spectacular on nails. At the same time, it is suitable both for everyday life and for publication. Currently, girls prefer to combine several colors, decorating the nails with special foil, rhinestones and other decorative elements.
Spectacular colors can be safely called coffee, purple, yellow, saturated blue, the color of young foliage and the color of wet asphalt. At the same time, classic French pedicure is always in fashion.
Whatever color, shade and decoration of the pedicure you choose, always remember that repeating all the fashion trends is silly and ridiculous.
French pedicure 2017
Such a coating of nails is quite simple at first glance, but with it the legs look more well-groomed. Many manufacturers of coatings care about their customers and therefore add a bottle with a special composition to the pedicure varnish kit. Which, after drying, removes the gloss. Thus, any girl can make a matte pedicure with her own hand.
Traditionally, a French pedicure has a white border on the top edge of the nail. But any color can be applied, this will make the coating unusual. The remaining surface of the nail is coated with a colorless varnish. However, if for some reason the girl does not want to leave her nail plate visible (changed color, fungus, curvature), then the nail can be varnished with flesh or pale pink.
Matte pedicure with decorative decorations
Each girl strives for everything unique, nail coating is no exception. In such cases, the craftsmen recommend additionally decorating the nails with rhinestones, decorative foil, etc.
Stones can be placed on the surface in different ways, they can become a point decoration or, on the contrary, they can “close up” the entire surface. Moreover, more and more girls are asked to make intricate drawings of rhinestones. It can be intersecting lines or triangles of stones of different sizes. Rhinestones on the nail, you can perform any pattern that tells the imagination of the master or client. The only drawback of such a decorative decoration is that it may fade over time or fall away.
Foil is a universal decoration. Her nail can be covered both partially and completely. This decoration has no drawbacks. It holds tight to the nail and can be of different colors and combine various patterns.
All girls love the shine on their nails, and a matte pedicure with rhinestones or foil looks really elegant and chic.
Fashionable summer pedicure
In the summer, I want to see something bright and fun on my nails. Therefore, fashionable pedicures for the summer are advised by masters to perform in yellow, red, green, blue and pink colors. In this case, you can apply drawings of flowers and other summer patterns to the coating. Such a pedicure with varnish can be done independently if you buy special films with a pattern applied to them that is suitable for the style.
The only minus of the summer pedicure is that it is not always suitable for girls working in organizations with a strict dress code. Most often, it is not allowed to apply bright varnish and variegated drawings to the nails. But do not refuse such coverage, because you can make a matte pedicure of red color of a muted shade.
Fashion trends for pedicure for fall-winter 2017
At this time of the year, some trends promise to be at the peak of fashion.
- Stamping is a covering of a nail with intricate and complex patterns with the help of special dies.
- Ombre Matte Pedicure is a multi-color nail coating. In this case, the color from the base of the nail plate is light, but it smoothly goes to dark closer to the free edge.
- Broken glass style - this coating is performed using torn pieces of foil, placed on the nail in a chaotic manner. This method allows you to achieve the effect of broken glass. With this style, even the most daring color combinations are allowed.
For a winter pedicure, drawings of a Christmas tree, snow, balls, garlands and other New Year's attributes are perfect. In this case, the nail itself can be covered with any color, but snow-white remains a priority. It would also be appropriate to decorate the nails with sparkles.
Gloss-free pedicure power
This type of nail and toenail coating is universal, regardless of color. Due to the complete absence of glossy gloss, matte varnish can be combined with various colors in clothes. At the same time, it is not necessary to select makeup for going to a party so that it is combined with varnish. Many fashionistas try to choose eye shadow and nail polish for manicure and pedicure of the same shade (this is especially true for open shoes).
By the way, a matte pedicure can be done independently without special tools. To do this, put a pot of water on a fire and bring it to a boil. At this time, it is necessary to apply varnish to the nails (after cleaning them from the old coating and file). The varnish should be applied first on one leg and, until it has dried, it must be placed with the nails down over the pan. This is a little inconvenient, so you need to take care of safety (the pan can only be placed on a flat, solid surface, if possible, cover the edges with a towel). Under the influence of steam for 3-4 minutes, the coating will become dull. After this, it is necessary to do the described manipulations with the other leg.
Remember that it is not worth covering the nails with colorless varnish on top, because it will give the nails a glossy shine and all the work will go down the drain.
To some, this method seems silly, then you can buy a special liquid to give a matte effect. It can be purchased at stores specializing in the sale of salon products.
Ageless Color Classic
There are colors that do not go out of style.
- Black - this color has always been and will remain at the peak of fashion. Many celebrities use it to cover their nails when going to social events and for photo shoots. It's hard to argue about fashion with style icons.
- White - this color means openness and purity. With such a coating, the nails always look neat and well-groomed, while the rest are easily combined with this color.
- Red - unfortunately, this color is considered by many to be vulgar and defiant. However, red deservedly takes a place near black and white, because with it you can show self-confidence.
Choosing a color, you can consult a master in a pedicure studio, and he will tell you what color and shade to choose. Also, a specialist can advise which decorative decoration or pattern will suit the selected color.
