The season of sweaters is upon us, and they’re sneaking their way into our lives in more ways than one. In addition to being our favorite piece of clothing during the cold winter months, sweaters managed to become a hot new commodity in the world of nail art.
Sweater nails look just the way they sound—like wearing a knitted jumper design on your fingertips. To get this cozy 3D look, your nail artist will have to use a detail brush to paint the desired design on your nails, and a lot of attention to detail is required to get it right.
Like many nail art trends that emerged before them, sweater nails have been around for a while before experiencing a sudden surge in popularity this winter. One of the nail artists who put them on the map is celebrity manicurist Chaun Legend, who did cute pink sweater nails for the beauty guru James Charles.
Charles’ nails are pretty simple when compared to some other sweater manicures we’ve seen around. They come in many different colors at once and are often mixed up with other festive designs, because the year is almost over, and nail art lovers are trying to pull off as many trends as possible before the clock strikes midnight.
