What nail shape is this?

As a nail artist with over 10 years of experience, I've come across various nail shapes and styles. It's essential to identify the nail shape you're working with or looking to achieve to create the perfect look for any occasion. Based on the information provided, I can't see the specific nail shape you're referring to, but I'll be more than happy to guide you through some of the most popular nail shapes you might be interested in.

Almond: The almond shape is characterized by its slender, elongated appearance, with a tapered tip that resembles the shape of an almond. This elegant and feminine nail shape is perfect for those looking to elongate their fingers. To achieve this shape, file the sides of your nails to create a soft, rounded point at the tip.

Oval: Similar to the almond shape, the oval shape also has a rounded tip, but the overall shape is more rounded and less tapered. This classic and timeless shape is versatile and works well with various nail designs. To create an oval shape, file the sides of your nails and round the tip, ensuring that the curve is more pronounced than in the almond shape.

Square: The square nail shape features a flat, straight edge at the tip and straight sides. This bold and modern shape is perfect for those who prefer a more structured look. To achieve a square shape, file your nails straight across and then file the sides to ensure they are straight and even.

Coffin/Ballerina: This trendy nail shape is characterized by its long, tapered sides and a flat, straight tip. The coffin shape, also known as the ballerina shape, resembles a coffin or the shape of a ballerina's slipper. To create this shape, file the sides of your nails at an angle, tapering towards the tip, and then file the tip straight across.

Stiletto: The stiletto nail shape is known for its dramatic, pointed tip and slender sides. This daring and eye-catching shape is perfect for those looking to make a statement with their nails. To achieve a stiletto shape, file the sides of your nails at a steep angle, creating a sharp, pointed tip.

I hope this helps you identify the nail shape you're looking for. If you have a specific shape in mind or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to provide more details or reach out with any questions. Happy nail designing!
