As warmer weather approaches, the focus shifts to pedicures, with spring 2026 bringing a diverse array of styles. This year's trends range from detailed botanical art to understated pastel finishes, ensuring a broad appeal for clients.
Floral designs are set to dominate, utilising the larger surface of the big toenail for blooming botanical art. These can be adapted to any colour scheme, with neon and pastel pairings noted as particularly popular for the season.
A refreshed take on the French manicure is also anticipated. Clients can expect to see classic French tips updated with creamy pastels and vibrant brights, offering a playful twist on a familiar style.
The 'glazed donut' effect, popular for fingernails, is extending to toes with a chrome finish. Shades from butter yellow to pastel blue offer varied ways to embrace this glossy trend.
Elevating pedicures further, the 'cat eye' effect is moving from fingertips to toenails. This magnetic shimmer adds a subtle yet eye-catching dimension, adaptable to client colour preferences.
Finally, animal prints continue their reign, with zebra, snake, and cheetah patterns appearing on toenails. Colour variations will allow these classic prints to feel fresh and seasonal.
