100 Years of Nail Art | Glamour 

French tips were DEFINITELY a big part of the 2000s. Rounded off square nail shape with French tips was the look for the majority of the decade for a lot of people. Accent nails also became popular. Whole hand one color and then one finger on each hand (usually ring) was another. Neon pink/orange was also a big trend.

I really appreciate that you all took time to differentiate Black nail styles, esp bc they are very prominent today... it's important to credit those girls who did it first

My friends and l had nail piercings on our acrylic nails in the 90's. We also attached trinkets to our piercings such as the first letter of our given names. They were so much fun to wear, but the piercings would get caught on almost every fabric and the trinkets were heavy to wear. It also just occurred to me - for my 21st birthday (still in the 90's) l went and had my acrylic nails extended to about 7cm, maybe longer with a baby pink polish. I couldn't touch or pick up anything, but l knew l wouldn't have them done like that again, so l just enjoyed the moment. All good times! Thanks for the memories! LOL!

Abstract nails will forever be synonymous with 2022 to me. They were absolutely EVERYWHERE this summer!!

Can believe yall didn't include the coffin nail crazy of 2010

Nail tech here! Duck nails were a Y2K essential, but they weren’t highlighted or mentioned in the video. Duck nails with a combination of bright colors and prints (example: hot or neon pink base with zebra print French tips).

Nail tech here: All of the nail extension shapes in the 2000's and earlier in this video are suuuper inaccurate, straight, pinched forms didn't rise in popularity until the late 2000's and straight tips weren't really a thing until about 3-4 years ago, before then we had super curved tips that didn't have much c-curve to them and super stiff forms that also lacked c-curve and even created a slight flared edge on longer nails. Additionally, the acrylic nail extensions that were invented in the 1950's (which we still use today) were absolutely not the first ever nail extensions as this video suggests, silk wrap nail extensions have a much longer history. Also, who the heck thought it would be a good idea to make the model hold a guitar upside down and backwards? It makes the model (and by extension those who wear nails in general) look stupid and vapid.

So we’re just pretending crackle didn’t exist

This is so cool 🤩! I love how over the decades we still loved our pretty nails 💅🏻

Thank you for mentioning Coko of SWV, she was nail goals!!!

I remember the neon nail polish of the 80s! The lack, fingerless gloves showed off the neon polish. Thanks for the history of the French Manicure in 1975. I love French Manicures. It's my signature nail design!

French manicure is a classic nail art style 💅✨

Your series was brought back! My Suggestion for your next episode is Teen Boys Clothing

Nothing about gel, shellac or powders?

As a kid in the 90s I used to watch my mom with her long nails. I hated them because they reminded me of Freddy Kruger. Lol plus I didn't think they were that functional. But because of her I love getting my short nails done. Also when I hit my teenage years (late 90s/00s) I ventured towards the grunge look with nails anyway

What about crackle nails! 😂

I still remember growing up in the late 2000’s into the early 2010’s that nail art was one of THE BEST ways to express yourself! I can still remember little elementary school me wearing magenta polish 😁❤️

Absolutely beautiful editing and amazing effort guys! Well done 💖

I can remember going to my Nans once after painting my nails metallic blue and her complementing me on them so I offered to do hers for a wedding she was going to, I can remember her telling me that all they had when she was my age was red nail polish as I was painting her nails for the wedding.

To be honest i am not a fan of long nails and prefer short painted nails, but i love the colors💚💙❤💜🧡🖤💞😍💅👍👏🌟

I just love the production and artistry along with the music...wonderfully done!!!

haha I'll never forget doing those newspaper nails in 2015 that never worked

My favourite are the classic ones at the beginning, along with French tips and the nude ombre

French manicure is all-time ❤❤

No nail stamping? That seems to be the biggest trend I see now

The series has come back!

The 90's were a great time to ruin my mother's favorite hand towel with navy blue Wet n' Wild. Or maybe that was just me?

This was a fun journey 😍

Omg I remember when minx nails were all the rage! Funny how trends reset. Now we're back to the longer-than-life nails, it's all beautiful though if you can function. 😊

I always have one question: how you can do anything with so much long nails 😭.

This was a really fun project to be apart of, thank you @glamour 😊

Gorgeous beautiful ❤

I think all of the nails are pretty God bless y'all

You guys made this on my birthday!

I don't remember 90s grunge nail looks being that long.

No mention of the advent of nail polish strips?

I love 60s☺️

2012: wavy blue or pale purple mottle design 2013: stamp art 2014/15: metallic

WHERE'S THE HOOOOOOOLO :C

I personally associate more the rise of DIY nail art (mainly watermarbling) with the 2010s

More 100 years of videos please

The only style I haven't noticed before it the Cresent nails of the 30s

Nice videos😍👍🏼

I was just talking about nails and you tube gives me this. 🤦🏾‍♀️ These phones really need to stop spying on us.

Glamorous nails 💅💅💅💅

Very nice videos 😍😍

where are the crackle nail polishes?

They took 100 years of nail design and squeezed it into 5 minutes!

1960s one look pretty ❤

Love the nail polish colors, but I am not a fan of long finger nails. I have squared off oval nails 💅

You guys forgot the ‘cracked’ nail polish of the early 2010s

Winx fingernail colors Bloom(clear) Tecna(glitter) Musa(scarlet) Flora(pastel)

1975-2010 They are the best so far

Okay the 80's nails... WHAT YELLOW NAIL POLISH IS THAT???

Not mentioning gel polish??

I feel like they wase like a year when i was in middle school (2012?) Where nail arte exploded, crack nails, methalic, and so on

2010s were known for galaxy ombre and aztec designs more than baby boomer nails imo

Na epóca dos anos 60 eu via a dona florinda sempre de unha vermelha.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I see the word stiletto but missed any actual stiletto nails being shown

q bom q a referência é só os eua

Okay but are we all just going to ignore the fact that they skipped over the 1920s and went straight to the 1930s? If I did my math correctly 2020s - 100 = 1920s

4:43 me looking at my almond shaped nails that have colored swirls on while this

Slay 💅💅

Out of all of them the 90s ones were the best

Next can u do 100 years of makeup in Korea

I don’t remember anyone in the 80s with nails like that.

When my nails need a fill I’m just going to say they’re crescent shaped inspired by the 1930s

It's funny how everything comes back in fashion

these are so underrated

where is the french tip in the 00’s they were everywhere

4:25 my sis wears those

Kylie nails!

I think 2010‘s crackle nailpolish definitely should have gotten a mention…

Can someone PLEASE tell me the song that was played for the 2010's one. I literally know the song but forgot the name and can't remember for the life of me. I think it's a kpop song

Am the first view 🔥 love your nails 💅

2010s is wrong. Crackle polish, newspaper nails, and holo were everything...

Disagree… since 2000’s short square nails gained popularity, not only long fake nails

You missed the matte look

Just thinking why are all the nails so long?

I realized that I really hate long nails 😪

1990's creeps me out.

So according to y’all, everyone was walking around with nude ombré nails in the 2010s? 🤕

💅💅🥰🥰😍😍💅💅

I can't believe a dentist invented fake acrylic nails

There is also evidence of nail painting in Ancient Egypt 😁

Remember crackle polish????

Where the heck is shatter polish? That was the late 2000s.

They forgot the curve nails of the 90s.
