Shaping natural nails into an oval involves filing the nails from the points where the white part of the nail starts, towards the tip, while keeping the file slightly angled upward to create a rounded shape.
Here's a breakdown of how to achieve the oval nail shape:
-
Starting Point: Identify the points where the white part of your natural nail begins. (0:32)
-
Filing Technique: File from these identified points towards the center of the nail tip. (0:32)
-
Creating the Round Shape: Hold the file at a slight upward angle as you file. Filing too flat will not create the desired oval shape. (4:53)
