How to Find Your Perfect Size: The XS–L Measuring Guide
September 21, 2026 · My Store Admin
The right size is the difference between "are those your real nails?" and "nice press-ons". Five minutes with a ruler is all it takes — measure once, wear forever.
What you need: a soft measuring tape, or a strip of tape and a ruler. Place the tape across the widest part of your nail, mark the edges, then measure the strip.
Measure the widest point of each nail in millimetres — usually just above the middle. Write down all ten; left and right hands are often different.
Match your numbers to the chart below. Choose the size where every nail fits. If one or two nails fall between sizes, go up and gently file the sides for a custom fit.
XS — Thumb 14mm, Index 10mm, Middle 11mm, Ring 10mm, Pinky 7mm
S — Thumb 15mm, Index 11mm, Middle 12mm, Ring 11mm, Pinky 8mm
M — Thumb 16mm, Index 12mm, Middle 13mm, Ring 12mm, Pinky 9mm
L — Thumb 17mm, Index 13mm, Middle 14mm, Ring 13mm, Pinky 10mm
Quick checks before you order: the tip should cover your nail edge to edge without touching the skin. Too wide looks bulky; too narrow lifts at the sides.
