If you’re going to rock nail art, there is no better time of year to do so than October. The month gives you free range to peruse all the wicked-cool Halloween nail art ideas, and try as many festive manicures as you want.
See below for tips from celebrity nail artist, Skyy Hadley (who works on Faith Evans, Janelle Monae, and Mariska Hargitay) for a fun stiletto DIY nail art tutorial:
Skyy recommends doing your nails the day before Halloween at home and giving yourself 45-60 minutes to complete it.
How to Get It:
- Sanitize hands and nails.
- Start out with a square nail by clipping your nail straight across.
- Clip the uppermost portion of the two sides diagonally into a triangle.
- With a file, focus on curving the sides evenly to get a teardrop shape that softens the triangle.
- Whatever you do on one side, do on the other side. For example: If you do three files on one side, do three files on the other so that it looks symmetrical.
Happy Painting!

OK I realize those are for Halloween but those are seriously creepy. The thumb looking at it hurts. I know it isnt real, but goodness that is amazingly creepy.
I know right?! I love it! Perfect for Halloween!
Wow those are creepy! I’d add a little more red/fake blood. Just hope I don’t hurt myself though. They look sharp.
Looking creepy but good
They look really real, very nasty looking
These are really creepy! I commend you for coming up with design and rocking it! You did an amazing job!
