It’s the most wonderful time of the year!  We LOVE the holidays here at HC Lasell.  Going home for the holidays just got a bit sweeter with our holiday-themed articles this week perfect to get even the Grinch into the holiday spirit.  Grab your hot cocoa and dive in!

Ever wanted super trendy holiday nails, but did not know where to start? Here is our list of the best holiday nail ideas, of course off of good old trusty Pinterest. There are so many to choose from, so here is a list of our favorites.

1. Candy Canes and Glitters

Pick out your favorite red nail polish, favorite glitter nail polish. Then, use some nail tape to create lines with white and red nail polish to make a candy cane design. 

2. Gold Tips

Make little gold tips, but go all out on one nail with glitter. There is no such thing as too much gold glitter.

3. Classic Red and Green With a Sparkle

Use your favorite red and green nail polish. Then, add a sparkle coat on top off two of the green nails, for extra fun. These could be carried into the New Year’s Eve with the sparkle or keep it simple with just the red and green for Christmas. 

4. Winter White

These nails are good to last a little bit then just Christmas. The snowflake design is a little more complicated but super cute.

5. Simple Christmas Tree

On top of a red coat of nail polish, make a thin gold Christmas tree and top it off with a gold star. Instead of a shiny topcoat, mix it up and do a matte topcoat.

Hope these holiday nail ideas give some inspiration for Christmas and the New Year to wow your friends with.
