Style Guide: Find Your Perfect Shape

Pressed By Kendall Nail Co.

We specialize in four flattering, wearable nail shapes designed to suit a wide range of lifestyles, nail beds, and aesthetics. Whether you're looking for everyday practicality or a touch of elegance, these shapes are crafted with durability, beauty, and your real life in mind.


Extra Short Almond

Super low profile while maintaining a natural elegant look for everyday active wear.

The Extra Short Almond offers a soft, tapered silhouette with a gentle point—think a subtle almond shape that stays close to your natural nail length. This shape is ideal for those with active hands who want a polished, feminine look without the maintenance of longer nails. It elongates the fingers slightly while staying practical for typing, working out, or daily tasks. The low-profile edges reduce snagging, making it one of our most comfortable everyday options.


Square Natural Short

Clean, modern edges. Great for active hands wanting a bold square look.

Square Natural Short delivers crisp, straight sides and a flat tip for a strong, architectural finish. This shape is perfect for short nails and provides excellent durability—great for busy, active lifestyles where you need nails that can keep up without chipping easily. The bold square edges give a modern, confident vibe while remaining low-maintenance and versatile for both minimalist and bold nail art.


Short Almond

Flattering bold length, ideal hybrid for working hands with the desire to stand out.

Short Almond strikes the perfect balance: a bit more length than the extra short version with the classic tapered, elegant almond point. This shape flatters most hand types by elongating fingers and creating a graceful, feminine silhouette. It's a fantastic hybrid for professionals or anyone with working hands who wants a noticeable yet manageable style—durable enough for daily life but stylish enough to turn heads.


Square Natural Medium

Versatile length for added confidence and standout appeal.

Square Natural Medium offers a bit more length for those who want presence without going extreme. The structured square shape with clean lines provides strength and a contemporary look that's excellent for nail art, color play, or a simple glossy finish. It works beautifully on various nail beds and gives fingers a polished, confident appearance—ideal if you want versatility and a bit of boldness in your everyday style.
