Classic French manicure is still a go-to style for many people, especially those who exude understated and quiet luxury nail games. However, you can spice things up a bit and enjoy numerous fun twists on this classic style.
You can switch the classic white tip with bright and electric rainbow colors. Another thing you can do is to play with the transparency and have a gorgeous gold or metallic accent.
- Twisty Chrome
Metallic nail colors are back on trend ever since the latest award season followed by Coachella not long after. You can see numerous celebrities showcasing their metallic nails across social media.
For Summer 2024, the chrome trend has a new twist. Rather than going with the classic metal colors such as gold and silver, it branches out to pastels and other unique colors.
Yes, pastel chrome is a thing. You can have them in all rainbow colors or opt for a gradient style to make your design look classy. The fun part is, that pastel is also one of the highest sought-after color schemes in Summer 2024.
- Shades of Blue
Aqua, turquoise, seafoam, teal, and even electric blue are some of the colors that will be prominent all summer. It’s understandable since these colors are fun and represent the sea. After all, there’s no summer without beaches, right?
You can have a lot of fun with the blues. Try to have the jelly aqua nail or go for the glitzy turquoise glam. These colors will make you stand out among other beachgoers as you also can have a lot of fun with sea-themed nail designs.
- Making It Green
Just like blues, green is also a lush and trendy color this summer. And we’re not talking strictly about the colors that resemble blue. Various shades of green are great to have on your nails.
You can play around with having the color as an accent or get a unique take on your design. One way you can do this is by having a spring-like nail design with cute flower stickers.
- Red Hot
You can’t go wrong with red nails. And if you have it in your staple, then you can explore more reds this summer.
From the bright chili red to the deep dark cherry red, you have a lot of colors to choose from. One thing you can do is to get aura nails with a massive emphasis on red.
Anyhow, red can get tricky since it may not suit all skin tones. But you can talk to your nail tech to see which shades suit you best.
- Pastels and White

White nails have been back in trend since 2022 and will stay throughout 2024. You will catch everyone’s attention with your all-white nail colors. One thing you can do is to mix it up with some pastels.
Pantone put peach fuzz as the 2024 color of the year and this means more pastels will show up this year. These colors are great whether you combine them with white and other colors or even as a stand-alone design.
Buttery yellow, plain peach, soft tangerine, and powder blue are some colors many nail techs claim to have been using. And you can expect to see them a lot more often this summer.
- Blush and Transparent
You may think blush and nudes are only for brides. But this summer, these colors are back in trend with an emphasis on translucent polish.
Blush and nudes are great as a go-between before you check other nail colors. You can use blush polish right after you are done with electric blue.
Having plain and natural nails is far from boring. On the contrary, you can always use the natural base for a unique nail design before switching to the next color.
Keep your nails healthy when you try any of these colors. One of the strong contenders for nail design is back on the clean cuticles rather than extensions with tapered nails. Don’t forget to apply hand cream regularly and other nail care products. Healthy nails will help you when you often change your nail colors.
