Sometimes medium-length nail designs get overlooked but I think we’re missing a trick here. A medium-length nail gives you plenty of space to work with and it doesn’t become too delicate or get in the way. It can be the perfect mix of style and function. A medium-length design can range from the simple and understated to the bold and eye-catching. Add a bit of personality to your fingers without worrying about them breaking too easily.
We looked through thousands of different nail designs to bring you our favorites. From subtle stripes to pretty petals, there’s something for everyone on our list. If you can’t find something you love here, your next mani is on me.
