50 Nail Art Captions For Instagram That'll Make You Want To Hit Up The Salon ASAP

Some may say diamonds are a girl's best friend, but what about perfectly-manicured nails? That little thrill you get from a cute manicure is one of the best feelings, and if you add nail art, your mood just soars. Whether you're into acrylic or natural, classic or gel, everyone needs new polish every once in awhile. And when you do get your nails done, you want people to compliment you (because, duh, they're fly as hell). So of course you're going to need nail art captions for Instagram when you post your new nails up for all your followers to marvel at.

Whether you like simple and chic or bold and beautiful, your nails are a reflection of who you are and deserve to be decorated as such. There is nothing wrong with a plain coat of paint, but the art just adds a POP like no other. And if you add jewels to them? You better get likes and comments from your friends, because that sh*t is too good to ignore. Nowadays, you can also choose from a ton of different nail shapes to spice up your nail art as well.
