Flame Nail Art is Bringing Fire to Our Instagram Feed

The majority of nail art trends this summer have been dreamy and romantic—and then there are flame manicures. This daring and bold print is back and going stronger than ever, and all the major nail artists on Instagram are sharing their own take on this trend.

An increase in popularity of flaming hot manicures is quite surprising since they’re nothing alike other nail art trends that have been ruling the summer. Cloud, butterfly, and fruit prints are all colorful, dreamy, and playful, but fire prints allow you to embrace your wild side.

This print usually comes in red, orange, and bright yellow shades, reminiscent of the actual fire. Some nail artists enjoy mixing things up by experimenting with different colors and other popular prints to create trendy mismatched nails.

If you like the print but aren’t a huge fan of these bright shades, don’t despair. Some manicurists are reinventing this trend by replacing red and orange with subtle, pastel colors and proving that flame nails can look dreamy after all.
