Stoned cartoons & graphics

Seeing our favorite cartoons with a bong or red eyes is always a bit silly, and some nail technicians seem to think so, too. This batch of nails includes a Spongebob set, Mario & Luigi, Lizzie McGuire, and even the Dogg himself: Uncle Snoop. It takes skill to paint a set, so seek a skilled tech if cartoon and graphics nails are on the docket.

Weed nail art using actual flower

The final weed nail trend worth mentioning is using an actual ground flower in the gel. Each set includes actual plant material for a “just out of the grinder” look. It takes an artistic eye to pull this off without making the nails look like they got stuck in some fuzz–but when done right, they’re out of this world.
