Why Pressed Flower Nails Are the Perfect Summer-to-Fall Mani

Aug 9th, 2021

The traditional art of pressing flowers is used to preserve the vibrant petals of spring and summer foliage; however, creative nails techs have embraced the technique and encapsulated blooming buds onto their clients’ fresh nail sets.

As the summer months wind down, it is only natural to want to preserve the season’s warm sunrays and eye-catching flora for as long as possible. Embracing this trend in the nail salon can help make this a reality. Additionally, the trend can make for a fun transition into the crisp autumn months with seasonal flowers and leaves.  

Whimsical and romantic, these five pressed flower nails stopped the scroll and will undoubtedly result in some repeat customers.
