Simple video tutorial showing how I do a chevron design on acrylic nails. Really fun and easy and doesn’t look that bad.

Start out with a white base coat for the chevron nails.

Then a silver layer for the glitter accent nail.

I like to use silver as a base for the glitter to give it a more solid look.

Now, I’ll add a second coat of white after the first coat has dried. Then add a second coat on the silver.

Now, I’ll apply a chunky silver glitter for the accent nail. The different sizes of glitter give it that three dimensional effect.

I use Chevron Washi Tape to cut out the design to create the chevron and apply them to the white nail.

Apply black nail polish to the white nail and cover the entire nail.

You want to make sure the tape is firmly pressed down on the nail so the black doesn’t get underneath and mess up the design.

While the black polish dries, I’ll add another coat to the silver glitter accent nail.

Once the black polish has dried, carefully remove the tape, pulling gently as to not mess up the chevron line.

Apply a clear top coat to seal everything in and give it that polished look.

Enjoy your new chevron nails!

I wanted to post a freehand version of the chevron nails I did earlier. As you can see the freehand version came out a little sloppy, but that’s okay since you get the general idea.

I wanted to post a simple chevron nail tutorial with you. This tutorial shows you how to make the chevron design using crafting foam.

This really simple and neat idea is a fun way to make chevron nails easily and they come out looking pretty decent.

I almost didn’t post these because of how sloppy they came out, but I wanted to show you how easy and simple it was to do a triangle nail design.
