An Easy Red Nail Design for Fall
Red has been a steady go-to choice for 2025. Nail techs are rushing to keep their salons stocked with shades of red, especially the dark reds and burgundies, as the fall season approaches. For clients seeking a dark and moody manicure but who want to ease into the look or match the transitioning weather, we understand and are here to help with ideas.
Apply full coverage of Dolly BIAB on the thumb, first finger, and pinkie finger. On the middle and fourth fingers, add a slight border on either the base or tip of the nail with Dolly, then on the opposite edge, add a gold trim. Then top it off with an Extreme Shine Top Coat.

This is why we have two types of coffee-inspired manicures (yes, we know there are more cozy fall beverages). Here is the simple, black coffee look, freshly brewed espresso on a cool autumn morning.
