Collection: How to Size Your Nails
Step 1: Gather Your Tools
You’ll need:
- Clear tape (transparent works best)
- A fine-tip marker or pen
- A ruler (preferably in millimeters for accuracy) or measuring tape
- Nail sizing chart
Step 2: Prepare Your Nails
- Wash your hands thoroughly to remove any oils or dirt.
- Push back your cuticles gently with a cuticle pusher for a clear measurement of your nail bed.
Step 3: Measure Each Nail
- Take a small piece of clear tape and place it across the widest part of your nail bed (usually near the middle of the nail).
- Using a fine-tip marker, mark the edges where your nail meets your skin on each side.
- Remove the tape and place it on a ruler or measuring tape.
- Record the measurement in millimeters (mm) for each finger (thumb to pinky) on both hands.
Tip: Each nail may vary slightly, so measure every nail individually.
Step 4: Refer to the Sizing Chart
- Compare your measurements to the sizing chart provided by Totally Tipsy Nails to determine your size for each nail (e.g., size 0–11).
- If you're between sizes, choose the larger size for a comfortable fit and file down if necessary.
Step 5: Submit Your Measurements
- Write down the sizes for both hands in the following order: Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring, Pinky (e.g., 1, 4, 3, 5, 8 for your left hand).
- Provide this information when placing your custom order. If needed, Totally Tipsy Nails can assist with confirming your sizes.
