November sits in this strange, lovely in-between spot, fall isn’t quite done, winter hasn’t fully arrived, and the nails I build this month reflect that. Deeper browns, the first hints of cooler tones, still warm at the core.
What I love about this month specifically is the freedom, clients aren’t locked into a single holiday palette yet, so there’s more room to play with color and finish than almost any other month I work.
Here are the 25 November nails my clients keep requesting.
November Color Palette
Deep browns, muted rust, the first cool grays, this is the transitional palette that defines the month. See November almond nails for the shape pairing I recommend most.
November Shapes Everyone’s Requesting
Almond, square, round, this month works across every shape, though almond stays the most requested by a wide margin.
November Finishes Worth Trying
Matte, glossy, soft chrome, the finish changes November’s whole personality more than the shade itself.
November Nail Art and Detail Work
Fine gold lines, subtle ombre, a single accent nail, November rewards restraint more than any bold statement.
November Nails for Every Week
Whether you’re easing out of Halloween or into Thanksgiving, there’s a version of November nails built for exactly where you are in the month.
