The Top Ten Nail Trends You Will See In 2022

We closed out 2021 with so many fun nail designs, and we’re excited to see what trends will continue to pop up in 2022. Manicures are one of the easiest and quickest ways to follow beauty trends without a lot of effort - it is literally at the tips of your fingers. This is Salon Meraki’s list of the top nail trends for 2022.

Abstract Designs

One of the most popular design requests we received in 2021 was abstract designs, and we expect to see them continue trending into 2022.

Nailscapes

This design is so fun to make because no set of nails will ever be completely the same. Sometimes, a little escapism isn’t a bad idea.

Colored French Tips With A Twist

French manicures have come back with a punch, and the modern version has evolved into many variations. We’ve seen everything from ombre French manicures to rainbow French manicures to slanted French manicures, and we love them all! 

Mixed And Match

Why stick with one color when you can experiment with mixing colors that complement each other. Or, if you’re on the more adventurous side, go with opposite tonal colors.

Shades Of Blues

Green was a popular color in 2021, but we have a feeling blue will take over.

Very Peri

Pantone’s 2022 color of the year is Very Peri Periwinkle, so we expect to see this color popping up everywhere in the nail trend.

Ombre Nails

Ombre nails are still going strong in 2022. We don’t expect to see it fading out anytime soon.

Bejeweled Nails

If you can’t always be extra, then let your nails be. A couple of stones will add that extra touch without being over the top.

Neutral Nails

Put it back in neutral. Neutrals are always a good choice when you can’t decide what to do. And who says neutrals must be boring?

Galaxy Nails

The galaxy may seem like thousands of light-years away and so far out of reach. But we have the next best thing - galactic nails, and that’s almost like having the galaxy in the palm of our hands.

I have been in the nail industry for over 25 years, always working for someone else. After being in Del Ray for four years, I decided to venture out on my own. Salon Meraki was launched on November 1, 2017 and with the overwhelming support from the community, our second location opened shortly after, in May, 2018. And after four years, our Queen Street location was recently expanded to three times its original size. At Salon Meraki, we strive to provide the best service while maintaining that cozy and sophisticated atmosphere. We want to bring a well curated space where you can get pampered and relaxed in your space.
