Nail Designs for Short Nails & Everyday Wear

If you love nail art and struggle to find cute nail designs for short nails, I get it! Most nail art inspiration is geared toward long nails. Long nails are pretty, but in reality they aren’t always practical. Maybe you’re like me and prefer a short nail anyway. Either way, there are cute designs for short nails, too! I’m sharing over 75 different designs perfect for short nails.

There is something for everyone in this post, with styles that are chic and classy to fun and flirty. It was hard to narrow down this list because there are so many designs out there! Using glitter, nail wraps, and 3-D nail accents allow short nailed ladies to experiment with trending nail art!
