24 Short Almond Nail Designs to Consider for Your Next Nail Look
As soon as we notice a chip in our nails—and, if we're being honest, sometimes even before—we're already brainstorming our next manicure. While nail polish colors certainly play a role, you first have to figure out what nail shape you want to work with. And, if we do say so ourselves, if you have a little length to work with, you simply can't go wrong with a stylish almond-shaped nail look.
The thing is, all almond-shaped nails require a touch of length to score the slightly pointed shape. However, if you prefer to keep your nails on the shorter side, you'll be glad to know that there are a bunch of short almond nail designs to copy on Instagram.
To save you from diving (er, scrolling) down that rabbit hole, we rounded up 24 of our favorite nail designs for short almond nails. While some of these are a little longer than what you might consider as short, just remember that many almond nails can be quite long, so consider this our modest in-between.
1. RAINBOW TIPS
Two-toned rainbow tips? Talk about a bright way to embrace a modern french manicure.

The best part about these abstract pink and orange nails is that they don't require loads of effort to bring to life. Simply swipe on a couple coats of color and finish with a few small black dots clustered throughout.
3. DAINTY FLORALS
How pretty are these floral nails? We love how the base embraces the milky-white manicure trend.

This opalescent nail look is so versatile—it will look nude in some lights and magically reflective in others.

Everyone's favorite hair accessory and glasses material is now fodder for your next nail look.

14. NEGATIVE SPACE RED
You can never go wrong with cherry-red nails, especially in summer. But if you prefer not to paint each entire nail, here's one way to add a little extra allure to your almond-shape mani.
15. NEGATIVE SPACE DETALS
Peach, periwinkle, and pale pink come together for a pastel masterpiece we can't take our eyes off of. Of course, to recreate it you'll need French manicure stickers to section off your nails—or an expert's help to get the job done for you.

From blue to green to yellow to orange to pink—we're in love with this colorful, almond-shaped fade.
17. PINK AND BLUE CLOUDS
Clouds are having a bit of a mani moment. Here, they're layered over a different color on each hand, which creates a cohesive element to an otherwise mismatched nail look.

How fun is this nail look? The accent nails give us all the '70s vibes.
24. SIMPLE DOTS
If you don't have a lot of space to work with, opting for a clear coat layered in colorful dots can draw attention to how much length you do have.
