We have all been there: sitting comfortably in the salon chair, staring at hundreds of gorgeous polish bottles, and feeling completely overwhelmed by the choices. Should you go classic red, trendy chrome, moody espresso, or soft milky white?
Choosing the right shade does not have to be stressful. To help you find your signature look for your next manicure, we have put together the ultimate guide to selecting the perfect nail colour based on four simple factors at 6 Stars Nails and Spa:
1. Match Your Skin Tone
Cool Undertones (fair skin that burns easily, bluish veins): Look stunning in crisp whites, icy blues, true reds, berry tones, and cool pinks.
Warm Undertones (olive or golden skin, greenish veins): Shine in rich earthy tones, warm corals, peaches, terracotta, and rich chocolate browns.
Neutral Undertones: You are lucky—virtually every color from pastel nudes to vibrant neons will complement your skin effortlessly!
2. Consider Your Everyday Outfit & Wardrobe
Think about your staple closet pieces. If your wardrobe consists of neutrals, black, and beige, a pop of bright red or emerald green adds an instant statement. If you love colorful patterns, chic neutrals like milky white or soft nudes keep your look balanced.
3. Align with the Season
Let nature guide your palette! Spring welcomes soft pastels and florals, summer calls for vibrant neons and bright corals, autumn introduces rich terracotta and deep olives, and winter sparkles with deep crimsons, silvers, and icy metallics.
4. Fit the Occasion
Professional/Workplace: Opt for clean, understated shades like baby pink, sheer nudes, or a classic French manicure.
Special Events & Weddings: Choose timeless elegance like rose gold chrome, soft beige, or a glossy timeless red.
Vacations & Festivals: Have fun with bright art, ombre fades, multi-colored sets, or high-shine mermaid finishes!
