This is common among people with long, perfect nail beds. It may be styled slightly rounded at the base and slightly pointed at the fingertips.

This nail shape is  filed away at the sides to a point at the tip; this shape is veryweak as the sides of the nail (which provide the strength) are totally lost

This nail shape is ideal for shorter nails, the nail is allowed to grow out straight at the sides for approximately 1.5 mm and then the tip is filed into a rounded shape.

This is a combination of square and oval nail shape and this gives the nail tip strength over the oval shape.

This is the most famous among the nail shapes. It is created by allowing the nail to grow out straight and then filing the tip straight across at right angles with the rest of the nail plate.
