How to Measure Your Nails for the Perfect Fit

Option 1: Sizing Kit (Recommended)

While measuring at home works, our Sizing Kit is the most accurate way to find your perfect fit. You’ll get real press-on samples (sizes 0–11) to try on, so you can see and feel exactly which size hugs your nails just right—no guessing, no surprises. For flawless results, start here!

Option 2: Measure your nails

To get the best fit for your press-on nails, you’ll want to measure the width of each natural nail. Here’s how to do it using a soft measuring tape:

What You’ll Need:

  • A soft, flexible measuring tape (like a sewing tape)
  • A pen and paper to record your measurements
  • Good lighting

 

  1. Start with your thumb and work your way to your pinky.
    Try each size from the kit on each nail until you find the one that fits sidewall to sidewall without overlapping or leaving gaps.
  2. Make sure it feels snug but comfortable.
    The nail should sit flush against your natural nail curve without pinching or lifting.
  3. Write down your sizes.
    Record the best-fitting size for each nail, from thumb to pinky, on both hands. Example:
    • Left hand: 1, 5, 4, 6, 8
    • Right hand: 0, 4, 4, 6, 8
  4. Keep your sizing chart handy.
    Once you know your sizes, you can easily order custom-fit sets anytime—no re-measuring needed!

Option 3: Scotch Tape Method

What you’ll need:

  • Clear tape (like Scotch tape)
  • Pen or fine-tip marker
  • Ruler with millimeters
  • Paper to record sizes

Steps:

  1. Cut a small piece of tape and place it across the widest part of your nail.
  2. Using a pen, mark where your nail begins and ends on the tape.
  3. Remove the tape and place it flat on a ruler.
  4. Measure the distance between the marks in mm—that’s your nail width.
  5. Write it down and repeat for each nail.


What to Do With Your Sizes

Once you’ve measured, check our Size Chart to match your mm measurements to standard nail sizes (0–11).
