Hailey Bieber is most definitely a minimalist with her nails. The model has a history of changing up her manicure regularly with the help of her go-to artist, Zola Ganzorigt, but you’ll rarely spot her with any nail-art designs on her fingertips. She much prefers single-color nail looks — but with a twist.
Bieber’s signature glazed-doughnut nails skyrocketed into fame recently after she wore them on numerous occasions, including to the 2022 Met Gala and to promote her skin-care brand, Rhode. In a previous interview with POPSUGAR, Bieber explained she goes “through phases where I stick to a theme with my nails for a consistent amount of time,” and her latest phase is all about reflective, chrome nails.
“A few months ago, I was doing these jelly-colored nails, where I was taking a color and adding clear to it on top to make it look like it was see-through, so I did that for a while. Then I bounced to something else for a bit,” she said. However, she and Ganzorigt accidentally invented glazed nails when they added chrome dust on top of a baby-pink, sheer base coat. And that’s how history was made.
But Bieber’s glazed nails aren’t the only noteworthy manicures in her beauty catalog. Over the years, she’s worn bright-neon colors, french manicures, and even the occasional negative-space design. One consistent detail among these manicures is her nail shape: she always keeps her tips almond shaped and medium length.
