33 On-Trend Chrome Nail Designs To Try

If you’re on Instagram and obsessed with nails (we’re assuming you are) then there’s still no escaping the chrome nail trend, years after it launched into the spotlight.

Made popular last year by the beautiful Hailey Bieber, we’re talking about the glazed donut, super-shiny chrome design, that is still flooding our feeds right now. Extremely effective but actually pretty easy to replicate (with a chrome powder), these nails are a big vibe.

Completely customisable and versatile, this trend can be made in any colour of your choice, and looks *chefs kiss* on every single nail shape and length. If you haven’t already been asked to replicate this design, it’s pretty inevitable that as a nail tech you will be requested to do this design soon, so we recommend you get prepping with ideas and items for your kit.

Obviously the classic option for this trend is a pearly, icy shade, but there really are no rules. If you fancy doing an 3d metallic or blue version, or even just apply chrome powder to the tips- we’re definitely not going to stop you. Have fun with it.
