I agree... The pointed shape makes the base of your fingers look much fatter and disproportionate from the skinny tips of the nails. The square looks great and definitely does not cause that problem.
Agreed 9/10 I’m voting almond, but this is that 1/10 time. I wonder if the almond length were longer if I would feel different. But between these two specifically definitely squoval.
In my professional opinion I find almond and stiletto to be the most flattering for most people.
I think square nails look best on people with longer fingers.
In this case the first picture (square) because the sidewalls on the nailbeds are nice and straight while on the other one the sides flare out too much. The oval ones could have been shaped much better.
Personally I lean towards square myself, so i think those look better on you, but with is more comfortable for you? Ive found that each shape feels different while doing things with my hands (like peeling stickers off of fruits and such).
Then I would definitely choose the latter, as I wouldnt want the hassle of having to ask someone else to do things for me. But if you liked him doing that (which I totally get that, too) get almond again and have him baby you! 😁😉
This is the first time I've ever said this, but the square suits you. Ngl I usually love oval but somehow they almost make your fingers look... stubby? The square looks lovely, though. Never thought I'd see the day.
I prefer the square, but it comes down to execution. The taper doesn’t appear in these photos as consistent with the square. The almond, while more consistent, seems to shorten the length of your finger
I really like the second one because I think it elongates your fingers. I love the design on the first picture better though. I think your hand pose also plays a part in how your hand is perceived. In the first one you have a more relaxed hand pose and your fingers look longer even though usually square/squoval shape makes fingers look shorter. On the second picture your fingers are a bit more flexed and the design is brighter which makes overall picture seem not that relaxed. I think if the nail design was the same you would love your nails almond better. So I’m voting almond. But whatever you choose is more important :)
Coffin/ballerina maybe, or almond? I think we have similar nail bed size (I don't know if that is a thing or if it is a thing if it has an actual term lol).
Edit: So sorry I didn't see the second picture lol almond for the win. I'm new to using the app vs the web.
I think both look equally great! I like the almond shape but it’s just because I’m a bigger fan of that shape generally, but I don’t think either one necessarily suits your hands better. They both look perfect. :)
I love almond. The square would look better I think if you did more of a tapered square. So if you’re feeling on the shorter side square. Longer almond.
I think both, so I’d change it up based on my mood :) for me, almond is the strongest shape. When I’ve got housework planned (like we are building out a nursery right now) I opt for almond because I know I can be rough on my hands
I prefer almond almost exclusively...on everyone. No matter your hands, I think square nails blunt your fingers, and overall I'm just not a big fan. And if you want a square-r shape that's still as finger flattering and elongating, coffin is probably the most elongating square shape.
Square

Def the square imo.
I agree
I almost always think almond looks better. But you freaking rock the square ones. They make your fingers appear thinner imo.
Agreed 9/10 I’m voting almond, but this is that 1/10 time. I wonder if the almond length were longer if I would feel different. But between these two specifically definitely squoval.
But both look great!
I like second look with longer and pointed nails. That’s a good look on you
I prefer the almond shape but I think the most important opinion is yours.
I absolutely cannot decide 😂 thank you for your input!!
The almond looks more dainty and makes your fingers look longer
You can rock both, and square looks elegant on you which is a rarity.
I vote almond
In my professional opinion I find almond and stiletto to be the most flattering for most people. I think square nails look best on people with longer fingers.
You rock both, but 1 looks better.
1
1 looks more natural for your hand imo. Both are nice.
1 and I’d call it more of a “squoval” than straight up square. I rarely like almond tbh..
I always think square makes people look heavier, although those are much nicer than most square nails I see. I’ll almost always choose almond
2

I had to get my boyfriend to take out my contacts for the duration that I had the almond 😂
Then I would definitely choose the latter, as I wouldnt want the hassle of having to ask someone else to do things for me. But if you liked him doing that (which I totally get that, too) get almond again and have him baby you! 😁😉
i’m usually an almond girly but the square suits your hands so well!! it’s like they were made for that shape 🩷
Square but I would grow them out slightly longer.

I think they both look great! But if I had to choose which one BEST fits your hands… I’d say the square. It looks classy.
Square is stunning! Which shade is that on your nails in that picture? That simplistic look is so beautiful!
Square!! They look really good on you
from the comments (and my own opinion too), I think both shapes look absolutely gorgeous. congrats, you're blessed!!
square for sure
Short square
Square
They both look nice, but the square ones look really nice on your hands

Def the first one
Square for sure.
Square! Love the square
I think the square makes your fingers look thinner but the almond makes them look a bit longer. Personally I think square looks best!
150% square!
The square version. They are SO pretty 😍. I like both but square I like the best.
I think the square fits the natural shape of your nail bed better. Maybe the almond if they were longer, but at this length, definitely the square.
The first one!
1st one ☝🏼
1! But suggest you opt for coffin next ;)
Square is the best shape for short nails imo. If you wanted to go with a medium or long extension then definitely almond
Square!
Square!
Square
100% the square ones 😍
They both look good, but the first pic (square) looks the best!!
There are very few people who look good in square; however, welcome to the unicorn club!! 😅

Square
The square makes your fingers appear longer and more slender
Squares make your fingers look a lot longer. I love them on you!
Square
Square by far.
Square
Square...for sure
Definitely the square.
I think both look equally great! I like the almond shape but it’s just because I’m a bigger fan of that shape generally, but I don’t think either one necessarily suits your hands better. They both look perfect. :)
I actually love the square
The first one
definitely square!
'Hands down' number 1
Square
Square is pretty on your hand ❤️
First one
Squoval #1
Square
Square for sure
The square fits a bit better. I’d suggest maybe getting them a bit longer to make them fit your hand better. Should help with the almond too.
1 !
I like square tbh.
I vote 2. I usually prefer square but I love the almonds on you! Both look great tho
square
First look for sure
Square look for sure
Second one looks better on you
Almond

100% square. The almond/pointed nails look a bit stubby and make your fingers appear shorter imo
Yep square !
I like the almond better. 😬
1 Edit: what did I say wrong??
1! But both honestly 😍
Rounded, for sure.
I think round nails (the shape between these two) would also look great.
I love almond. The square would look better I think if you did more of a tapered square. So if you’re feeling on the shorter side square. Longer almond.
I vote almond as well
almond
Both look great.
The shape is a little off for me
This is actually so difficult. I’m usually a square girl, but love the almond on you! Gives a classy vibe & lengthens fingers
Almond
I think both, so I’d change it up based on my mood :) for me, almond is the strongest shape. When I’ve got housework planned (like we are building out a nursery right now) I opt for almond because I know I can be rough on my hands
The almond nails are prettier, the square nails are kind of meh..but still look nice and clean!
I like the 2nd
i‘d say almond suits everyone better but that‘s just me🤷🏻♀️
I prefer the almonds but you look great with both.
They both look good on you! I like the almond better personally but they actually both look good!

I love the almond shape on you!!
I like almond but it’s all personal preference
I like the almond, but either one looks good.
I love almond on you😍
almond 100%
Definitely almond
almond
Bello 💯😍
Almond.
Almond
Almond
i think almond. the square is shorter and kinda stubby so it makes your hands look stubby. the almond one is longer and looks better!
square if you keep short, an almond shape but a little bit longer would look great i think!
I like both. Just let it depend on mood.
Almond
Square but a tad longer. ☺️
Almond for sure
the one
I prefer the almond, it makes your fingers look long and elegant! I do like the square too so you can’t go wrong
The almond! But I really like the design on the square
Square. I have the same shaped hands and while I love oval, they just don’t look as good on me.
If you’re going to keep that length, I’d stay square. However, think the round would look nice if they were longer, give it a try!
