As you might have already suspected, some of the most popular designs used to accent hunter green nails involved themes of nature.
Vines, leaves, flowers, trees, and, you guessed it, snakes, are all commonly used embellishments for emphasizing the lush hues of hunter green manicured nails.
The dark depth of tone in hunter green also lends itself beautifully to contemporary styles and abstract styles of nail art.
Hunter green serves as a fantastic go-to for an instant touch of modern color whether you use clean black geometric lines to highlight different areas of color, or, base your design in minimalism, and go for an outline of your nail rather than painting the entire surface of your nails.
If you’re looking to get the modern hunter green look at home, one of the easiest ways to create the look for yourself is by using color blocking.
You can use household tape or anything with a flat edge (that you don’t mind getting nail polish on) to make clean lines that will have your nails looking like you just stepped out of the nearest luxury salon.
Metallic colors like gold, and of course, in following Slytherin tradition, silver, are often used in tandem with hunter green.
Metallic tones like these, and flat neutral colors like black, grey, white, and beige, serve to accentuate the rich coolness of hunter green without overpowering the color or making it appear darker.
For those looking to keep up with the latest trends, you may also want to check out glittery oil slick nails that use colors like hunter green to create an optical illusion of iridescence by reflecting the light.
There’s just something about the oil slick look that is undeniably mesmerizing, and when you incorporate hunter green into your color scheme, it just makes your manicure that much more irresistible.
