Press-On Nail Size Guide: How to Measure at Home

Quick answer: Place clear tape across each nail, mark the widest points, stick the tape on a ruler and read the width in millimeters. Match thumb to pinky against the size chart; if you're between sizes, choose the larger size and file the sides.

What you need

Clear tape, a pen and a millimeter ruler — that's it.

Reading the chart

Each set lists widths for thumb, index, middle, ring and pinky. Our milky white short square set uses the same XS–L chart as every set we sell.

Between sizes

Size up and file the sides; a nail that's too narrow lifts at the edges.
