With Pride Month kicking off, it’s the perfect opportunity to wear a bold and colorful manicure. Whether you sport all the colors of the LGBTQ+ flag or go more personalized with the colors of the transgender or asexual flag, you can use your manicure to represent boldly.
“One of the simplest Pride nails you can wear is a bowling pin manicure, where each nail is a different color, and the colors can represent the Pride flag you want to support “, explains Sigourney Nuñez, global partner of Sally Hansen. “You can also do this with a multi-colored French tip.”
The options are truly limitless for a Pride manicure: from flowers and stars to stripes and hearts, there are plenty of ways to make a statement with your nails. Browse 30 fun and creative options below.
