One of the newest trends that I have seen advertised a lot on TV lately for teen girls is false nails with various styles and designs. These nails are meant to mimic gel or acrylic nails with nail art. The designs are actually less tacky than one would expect, and are quite a good ideas for younger girls as well. These nails can simply be popped on before a party or school event when its time to get dressed up.
One idea that I have for anyone who has proper nail training or is registered and licensed as a nail technician is to buy a couple sets to offer as a products to any of your clients that may have younger daughters. You may find that a mother gives her daughter some fake false nails and the daughter likes having her nails done so much she wants to come back for more. In a matter of weeks you may have a new UV gel client and know exactly what style she is looking for. These pop on nails are nice for a weekend or a party, but they are not custom made to your nails the way a gel manicure can be.
It would also be great for anyone taking online nail technician courses for nail art to see if they can find pictures of these nails to practice the designs. If these nails grow in popularity with the younger crowds, you can find your self with styles that are ahead of the curve when it comes to your nail art.
A few brands that I have seen advertisements for and that are growing in popularity are:
Revlon Runway Press Ons
Nailene Press Ons
Kiss
Broadway
Nailene Press Ons
Kiss
Broadway
I have seen kiss and Broadway nails advertised a lot recently and i think they have a few lines directed specifically to teens. You should do a little search yourself and see what designs you like and can replicate.
