Do you have a special Juneteenth celebration coming up? Putting together a great Juneteenth outfit is one thing, but if you want to go all out, try these creative Juneteenth nails.

Juneteenth, or June 19th, is the newest US federal holiday that commemorates the freedom of African-Americans from slavery. This is a time for everyone to celebrate, be proud, and have fun while also honoring the past.

Decorate your nails with something truly colorful and significant for this very important holiday. Pan-African colors like red, green, yellow, and black are all popular choices for this type of nail design, but you can also go for nail decals or stickers that represent African-American elements.

Let’s get started!

Bold nail art is wrongfully reserved for long manicures, but for all the short nail girlies – this is a fantastic Juneteenth manicure to celebrate June 19th.

8. seeing french

If nail art on the whole nail feels uncomfortable or doesn’t fit your personal style, go for a unique take on a French tip like this one made up of red, black, and green!

9. Abstract Art

We’ve touched upon abstract nail art previously, but it’s too good not to mention twice. Abstract art can be bold, or can be dainty like this – either way, there will always be something to suit your personal style.
