Looking for the hottest summer nail trends in Charleston? Whether you’re heading to brunch on King Street or beach hopping on Sullivan’s Island, your nails deserve to be just as on-trend as your outfit. At HER NAILS, Charleston’s premier luxury nail destination, we’re already seeing our clients fall in love with these 7 must-try nail trends for summer 2025.
Here’s what’s in this season—and how to get the look at HER NAILS:
1. Chrome Cat Eye Nails
Trending Finish + Magnetic Magic
This futuristic combo is taking Charleston by storm. Chrome cat eye nails blend a reflective metallic finish with magnetized polish to create a shimmering, dimensional effect that shifts in the light.
2. Minimal French with a Twist
Classic Meets Cool
The French manicure is getting a bold makeover. Summer 2025 is all about minimal white or nude bases paired with neon tips, micro-glitter outlines, or diagonal color blocks.
3. Jelly Nails in Tropical Shades
Sheer Color, Glossy Finish
Lightweight and breathable, jelly nails are ideal for humid Charleston weather. Available in pineapple yellow, coral pink, ocean blue, or citrus green, they bring instant vacation vibes to your fingertips.
4. Bold Gel-X Extensions
Custom Art on Long-Lasting Nails
Gel-X is one of HER NAILS’ signature services—and this summer, clients are choosing longer sets with hand-painted art, abstract prints, and chrome accents. Durable, flexible, and non-damaging, Gel-X lets your creativity shine.
5. 3D Floral Nail Art
Bloom Beyond the Garden
Elevate your manicure with textured 3D flowers, crafted petal by petal for a soft, romantic finish. Whether you’re going for a single accent nail or full garden glam, this look brings nature to your fingertips.
6. Nude Ombré with Builder Gel
Natural, Strong, and Sophisticated
Builder Gel overlays provide extra strength while maintaining a sleek, natural look. This summer, nude ombré gradients are in demand for their clean, professional vibe—with a soft, feminine touch.
7. Red, White & Sparkle for the Fourth
Patriotic Meets Glam
Celebrate Independence Day in style with a festive manicure that sparkles. Chrome overlays, glitter tips, and flag-inspired designs will keep you holiday-ready all weekend long.
