The 4 Best Fall Nail Trends in Dallas
Should you go natural or go bold?
Choose Rich, Bold Colors
Sorry, ladies. Time to step away from the ballerina pink. Bellacures is seeing darker colors like wine-soaked reds, olive greens and purpleish grays grace the nails of clients. The rich tones all pair well with cool-weather fashions, from scarves to sweaters.

Look Polished Without Polish
On the complete opposite end of the nail-trend spectrum, Exhale Spa says customers are asking for a minimalistic finish: bare buffed nails. The simple look is clean, fresh and idealfor those looking to steer clear of products with harsh chemicals.

Ask For The "squaoval"
Say so long to the days of long, super-pointy nails. Shorter, more practical nail shapes are in (breathes sigh of relief). Bellacures says the “squoval” is the most common requestlately--it makes nails more oval on the tips and squarer on the edges.
Try A Dip Powder Manicure
If you're looking for an alternative to gel manicures, this is it. Nail Works books a week out for an appointment, where clients dip their nails into a gel-like powder that includes a colored tint. Bonus: It can last two to three weeks without chipping--and it isn’t as harsh on your nails as shellac.
