You Will Need (4 things)

  • Top Coat Nail Polish
  • Thin Paintbrush
  • White Nail Polish
  • Several Nail Polish es

Steps (8 steps, 90 minutes)

  1. 1

    First step is super simple - paint your nails with a white polish. Honestly, I wouldn't even bother painting two coats. You'll be covering it up anyway!

  2. 2

    Next, this is pretty much what you'll be doing with each color polish. Pick a starting point (near the center) and spiral out. I would recommend starting with your red/pink if you're doing a rainbow themed tie dye.

  3. 3

    Follow up with orange.

  4. 4

    and yellow.

  5. 5

    I actually skipped green because the nails I did put it on, it was barely visible and it was getting cramped on my nails. So turquoise/blue it is!

  6. 6

    and purple. Don't worry if you have extra white space. We will take care of that.

  7. 7

    Fill your open space (if any) with colors that make sense in that spot . As you can see, I used my pink polish again to fill the space.

  8. 8

    top coat it and you're done! definitely not as difficult as it seems!
