8 FINGERNAIL SHAPES AND WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER

We always look for personality indicators in the physical appearance of an individual.

Isn’t it kind of awkward to know that someone, somewhere may judge you by your nails, just because long or short, oval or square, your fingernail shape reveals a bit of your personality?

It turns out that fingers may have more in common with our masculinity or femininity than you might think. Let’s look at some of the research on finger length and fingernail shape and what it means for our personalities.

The vertically long nailYou’re probably a real romantic. Even-tempered with a strange but wonderful imagination. You can be a perfectionist and easily overwhelmed. You see the little things that no one notice. People really love you. You get along with most people.

The round egg nailYou march to a beat all your own, and it’s often slower than the fast-paced life of today’s society. This makes you a relaxed and quiet person who is at peace with themselves. 

This contentment allows you to feel a sense of happiness with yourself and your life. You always make rational and logical decisions, because you weigh up all the options beforehand. Thanks to your fantastic emotional balance, you often maintain long friendships.

The triangular nailThose with nails pointed like a triangle are often bold and decisive people. They always know what they want. They are passionate, stubborn, and may be known as a firebrand. 

(That’s a compliment.) They know what they want and are not afraid to ask for it or just get it. These people work smart, not hard. They like to think things through before starting a task. However, once work begins, it is finished quickly, and the outcome is almost always fantastic.

The uneven and short nailAre your nails uneven and short – perhaps from biting? Then you’re probably an empathetic, observant person. You’re a very heartfelt soul, so when you say something, you mean it. You treasure openness and communication, and you tread carefully when making new friends.

The sword nailLast but not least, the sword nail. In your life, you’re often the tip of the sword. You’re ambitious. You work hard. You have your goals and you won’t stop until you meet them. You’re often well rounded and can handle tasks even far outside of your comfort zone. Your ambition is often contagious.

The broad and flat nailPeople with broad and flat fingernails are believed to be analytical and clear-headed. They think before they speak and are often turned to for advice. They can also have strong instincts and are an excellent judge of character. 

Because people with this fingernail type tend to be studious, they are known to enjoy building and crafting. Creating new things and having work pay off is very enjoyable for them. They also tend to be creative problem solvers and value usefulness over beauty.

The C-shaped curving down nailThis fingernail shape indicates a personality that is hard working and has had to overcome an obstacle in the past. This fingernail shape reveals a person who is perseverant and courageous.
