Sizing

How to size

In order to buy a set, you must choose a size. Choosing the right size is very important as you want the set to properly fit your nails, so let's look at how to measure your nails.

 

Step 1

  1. Get some sellotape and lay it across the widest part of your nail, pressing down as to include your nail's curvature. Take a pen and mark the edges of the widest part of your nail on the tape.

  2. Take the tape off your nail and place it on a flat surface, and using a ruler or measuring tape, measure the distance between the marks.

  3. Write down the width of each nail in millimetres as followed:

Left Hand: Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring, Pinky; Right Hand: Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring, Pinky.

For example - 

LH: 15.5 mm, 13.5 mm, 14.5 mm, 12.5 mm, 10.5 mm; RH: 15.5 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, 12.5 mm, 10.5 mm

 


Step 2

Once you have all your nail measurements in millimetres, you can use the chart below work out your nail sizes (00-12) and the corresponding size to select when ordering your press-ons (XS, S, M, L, XL, or custom (more information below)).

 

Things to remember:

  • If a size is not shown, it might mean that I don't have that size available. Please send me a message on Instagram before you order to double check.
  • Make sure to measure both hands, as your fingernails could be different sizes on each hand. If this is the case, select the "custom" size option and in the special instructions box at checkout enter your sizes as followed - Left Hand: Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring, Pinky; Right Hand: Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring, Pinky. For example - 
    • LH: 2, 5, 4, 6, 8; RH: 2, 5.5, 4.5, 6, 8 OR
    • LH: 15.5 mm, 13.5 mm, 14.5 mm, 12.5 mm, 10.5 mm; RH: 15.5 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, 12.5 mm, 10.5 mm
  • If your nail measurements don't fit any of the standard sizes shown (XS, S, M, L or XL), select the "custom" size option and in the special instructions box at checkout enter your sizes as explained above.
  • If a nail is in-between sizes (i.e. 13.2 mm), it's better to round up (i.e. to 13.5 mm), as you can always file down a press-on, but you can't make a press-on bigger.
  • Measure your nails twice and as carefully as possible for the best accuracy. I am not responsible for any incorrectly sized nails.
  • If you think you have entered the incorrect sizes after ordering, or if you are struggling with your measurements, send me a message on Instagram and we can try to sort the problem out.
