With pride month coming up in June 2024, it's time to start planning out your pride look. Whether you're headed to a parade, attending a festival, or just want to show your pride every day, we've got you covered with these loud and proud pride nail designs.
We tasked our team of expert nail artists to come up with designs that are not only bold and colourful but also represent the beautiful diversity of the LGBTQ+ community.
From rainbow stripes to glittery accents, these nail designs will make a statement and show off your pride in style.
#1 Rainbow Nails
These nails are a classic and timeless choice for pride celebrations. We've painted each nail with a different colour of the rainbow, including all the vibrant shades.
This is also a really simple look to do, and it's great if you're not too confident with nail art. Just pick seven of your favourite colours and paint each nail a different one.
We've got a super range of gel colours with lots of different shades, but our favourite 10 to recreate this look are:

As with any gel mani, make sure to properly prep your nails for the longest-lasting result.

#2 Rainbow Tie-Dye Nails
Tie-dye nails are super cool, there's no doubt about it. And putting a rainbow spin on it is the perfect way to make these nails pride-ready.
To get the perfectly square-shaped nails, we've used our Fix 'N' Flash Tips - Short Square, which takes the time out of filing and shaping your natural nails.
We've also used a red, yellow, green, and blue gel polish to create the tie-dye effect, along with a white and silver polish for the rest of the design.
How to Create the Tie-Dye Nail Art
For the tie-dye effect, paint on each of your rainbow-coloured polishes adjacent to one another.
While the polish is still wet, use a wooden cuticle pusher or toothpick to swirl the colours together, creating a tie-dye effect.
You can then cure the nails under a UV or LED lamp (we always recommend our Pro LED Lamp for best results), before moving onto the rest of the design.
#3 Neon Yellow Leopard Print Nails
We're straying from the rainbow theme for this next design, but sticking with the bright and bold colours. We think this neon yellow polish, coupled with a leopard print design, is a super fun take on pride nails.
Our You Had Me At Yellow Gel Polish is the perfect shade for this look. We recommend applying 2 to 3 layers to really build up the opacity and make the colour pop.
But there's no reason why you can't play around with the base colour if yellow isn't your thing. A neon pink, like Dragonfruit Gel Polish, or red, like Piping Hot, would look equally as amazing with this design.
#4 Coloured French Tips
We love a French mani as much as the next person, but let's take a break from the classic white tips and add some colour to them.
For this pride-inspired look, we've used our Liner Gels in our Kaleidoscope Liner Gel Bundle, creating coloured tips with contrasting swirls.
#5 Neon Flower Nail Art
Flower power is well and truly alive with this bright and bold nail art. We don't just love this look for pride, but we think it's stunning for the whole of summer.
Our talented brand ambassador @nailsbyem_x has used our neon polishes in the shades Green There Done That, Tangerine Sorbet, and Dragonfruit, with our beautiful shades Forget Me Not and Peony for this set.
You could use the same shades in the same combination or mix it up for your own twist.
