How to Measure Your Nails

Hey cutie! Want your Luxe Claw press-on nails to fit like a dream? Here’s a foolproof guide to measuring your nails the right way. Follow these simple steps and get ready for flawless nails!
STEP 1: MEASURE YOUR NAILS
Method 1: Measuring Tape Trick
What You Need: A soft measuring tape (like the one used for sewing).
How to Do It:
- Wrap the tape around the widest part of your nail, making sure it stays flat.
- Note down the size in millimeters for each nail.
- Compare your numbers with our size chart. If they match, pick a standard size; if not, go for a custom set!


Pro Tip: Your nails might not be the same size on both hands, so measure each one separately!
Method 2: Tape & Paper Hack
What You Need: A piece of clear tape, a pen, and a ruler.
How to Do It:
- Place a strip of clear tape over your nail.
- Use a pen to mark both edges of your nail’s widest point.
- Stick the tape onto a piece of paper and measure the distance between the marks in millimeters.
- Repeat for all your nails and check with our size chart!


Pro Tip: Make sure the tape is placed smoothly on your nail for the most accurate measurement!
Method 3: Tape & Paper Hack
What You Need: A smartphone with a camera and a standard coin (e.g., 2 EUR, 1 EUR, 1 USD Quarter, or 1 GBP Coin).
How to Do It:
- Choose a Coin – Use a standard coin for reference. Here are some common sizes:
- 1 EUR – 23.25mm
- 1 USD Quarter – 24.26mm
- 1 GBP Coin – 23.43mm
- 1 AUD Coin – 25mm
- 1 CAD Coin – 26.5mm
- Position Your Hand – Lay the coin flat on a table and place all five fingers of one hand next to it.
- Capture Your Photo – Hold your phone directly above your hand and snap a clear, well-lit photo. Make sure both the coin and all five nails are in the frame.
- Repeat with Your Other Hand – Since nail sizes can vary between hands, repeat the process with your other hand next to the coin.
- Send It to Luxe Claw – Share your photos with us, and we’ll determine your perfect press-on nail size!


Pro Tip: Make sure your nails and the coin are in sharp focus for the most accurate measurement!
STEP 2: MATCH YOUR SIZE
Once you have all your measurements, compare them to our size chart. If your nails match a standard size, great! If not, go custom for a perfect fit.
