There are several factors to consider when choosing the right nail size. Here are some detailed steps and suggestions:
First, measure nail size
Tools: Get a piece of hard paper (or white paper, tissue paper), a pen and a ruler (you can use the ruler function in the phone or soft ruler).
Measure nail width:
Against the widest part of the nail (usually the middle part), draw a line on the two edges with a pen.
Use a ruler to measure the width and write it down. Be sure to be accurate when measuring, a difference of 1mm May be a size difference.
Measure nail length:
Measure from the base of the nail to the tip of the finger, also recording.
If the nail shape is irregular, it can be measured several times to get the average.
Second, check the scale table
According to the measured nail width and length, choose the appropriate size against the wearing nail scale table. Here are some common size references (in mm mm) :
Fingers XS code S code M code L code
Index finger 14mm 15mm 16mm 17mm
Thumb 10mm 11mm 12mm 13mm
Middle finger 11mm 12mm 13mm 14mm
Ring finger 10mm 11mm 12mm 13mm
Pinkie 8mm 9mm 10mm 11mm
Please note that these sizes are for reference only, and the actual selection needs to be adjusted according to the actual situation of the individual finger. If the size difference between the left and right hands is large, it is recommended to measure separately and choose the appropriate size.
Third, consider nail shape and curvature
Nail shape: There are many shapes of wearing nails, such as short circle, trapezoid, oval and square head. Different shapes suit different hand shapes and nail beds. For example, short round A is suitable for daily wear, trapezoid A can appear long and thin hands.
Camber: The camber of the wearing nail is also a factor to consider. If the nail is relatively flat, it is recommended to choose a slightly larger curvature of the wearing nail to ensure fit and comfort.
Fourth, try on and customize
Try it on: Before buying a nail, it is recommended to try it on, if possible. When trying on, you can check the fit and comfort of the wearing nail to ensure that you choose the most appropriate size and shape.
Custom size: If your nail size differs greatly from the regular size, you can consider custom wearing nails. Accurate nail length and width information is required when customizing.
Fifth, other precautions
Measurement accuracy: The measurement should be carried out in natural light to ensure accuracy.
Multiple measurements: In order to improve the accuracy of the measurement, it is recommended to take multiple measurements of each finger and take an average as the final result.
Rather big than small: When choosing the size of the nail, it is recommended to choose a slightly larger size, so as not to cause discomfort or affect the appearance of too small. Of course, if personal preferences are small, you can choose according to the actual situation.
To sum up, the selection of the appropriate nail size needs to consider the length, width, shape, curvature of the nail and personal preferences. By mastering the correct measurement method and combining with the actual situation of the individual to choose, you can ensure the comfort and beauty of wearing nails.
