Squared off at the tips with rounded corners, this nail shape is also one of the strongest shapes out there, which means your nails will stay looking uniform and beautiful for a long time.
The oval part of the squoval nails is the nail bed. The contrast between the curve of your cuticle and the straight line of your nail tip creates a classic look that is not only easy to achieve but easy on the eyes.
You can accomplish this look by using straight clippers and cutting the nail straight across the tip. Then file down the corners to avoid any sharp edges. The great thing about the squoval nail is that it does not require laborious filing to get each nail just perfect and uniform.
This look is also great for those of us with short and brittle nails. Because the tips are not filed into straight-up ovals, the surface area of your nail increases and gives the illusion of having more nail than you might actually have.
Also, the square tips are much stronger than any other nail shape out there, which is great news for anyone with brittle or breakable nails.Another advantage of this nail shape is that it can be handsomely adorned with all kinds of nail art and look great.
Sometimes oval or pointy nails can look too fussy or old-fashioned, whereas squoval nails have a more contemporary and modern appeal.
The squoval adapts well to classic designs like a French manicure to nail stickers and art. Overall, squoval nails are all the rage and can give you both beauty and strength!
