While the general vibe of next year still feels uncertain, at least we're sure of the best nail designs of 2022, and they're good. While you could certainly spend your extra time indoors this winter searching for them, we took it upon ourselves to do it for you and gathered up every single save-worthy nail trend to cross our feeds in the past few months.
From plenty of twists on the French manicure to DIY-able rainbow nails and velvet nails, there's something for every vibe, mood, and all different nail shape here. Whether you plan on hitting up your local salon or go the DIY route (be sure to brush up on how to paint your nails at home, first), scroll on for the best nail designs of 2022.

Velvet Tips
Velvet nails took Instagram by storm for the holidays, but the festivities aren't over yet. Tone down the mesmerizing style (seriously, you have to see them in motion) by keeping the glitz to the tips.

Checkerboard Nails
Colourful checkerboard is having a moment in fashion—I can't scroll through Insta without seeing the print—so it makes sense it's now migrated to nails. Keeping it just on your tips ups the quirky factor even more.

French Manicure
Yes, the French mani is sticking around, and there are a ton of different ways to wear it. Check out our guide to the best French manicure ideas for even more inspo.

Mismatched Hands
For a unique nail idea, try different coloured nails on each hand. Make it even cooler with very of-the-moment shades like lilac and moss green. Try Essie Expressive in Get a Mauve On and Precious Car-Go! for a similar vibe.

Pastel Swirls
Just looking at this metallic, pastel, ombré situation makes you feel calmer. The best part is they actually nail wraps, so it's super easy to get the same look at home.

Black and White Flowers
White and black nail designs are so graphic and cool, especially when paired with something traditionally feminine like flowers.

Soft Skittles
The Skittles mani, a.k.a. rainbow nails with a different shade on each nail, was one of the biggest trends of the past two years. Update it for 2022 with a faded colour palette.
Retro Florals
Simple flowers look even cuter when done up in earthy tones.

Graphic Edge
Negative space will not be the coolest way to do nail art, and we're particularly into this graphic black and gold take on the trend.

Cool Emerald
As the weather gets cooler, it's a perfect excuse to dip into the jewel tones—deep green is one of our favourite trending nail colours right now.
