Black goes with everything, and the color looks stunning on its own or with any combination of sparkling additions or patterns. And black polish doesn’t have to be overly dark or lack any fun personality.

If you’ve been on the fence about springing for a bold black manicure on your next trip to the nail salon, this is your sign to go for it.

Whether a black manicure is your go-to or you’re just wanting to take a break from your usual colorful and extra fun nail styles, a set of elegant black nails could be just what you need right now. Black nails look super on any nail length or shape, which is one reason that a black manicure has been a nail style staple for years and years.

When it comes to black nails, your choices are innumerable. The possibility that the bold neutral color allows for makes it deceptively simple to come up with a breathtaking and different nail design. The most popular way to wear a black nail is simply that – no glitter or designs added to the look. And even the most devoted lovers of glitter can’t deny the beauty of this manicure.

However, there is always room to improve. Another beautiful way to sport your black nails could be with some matte polish. A matte black set of nails is dark and mysteriously beautiful without the shine of the regular polish.
