We celebrate showing your Pride all year, but officially, June is Pride Month. And a great time to get your manicure done with one of these Pride nail designs, whether or not you’re going to a parade this year.
When it comes to manicures, think rainbows, bold colors, and designs that symbolize the unity and strength of the LGBTQIA+ community. Whether you are a proud member or a supportive ally, showing off your Pride nails is a powerful way to stand in solidarity and spread love.
To help you find inspiration , we’ve curated a diverse selection of manicures that represent the different Pride flags. From the classic rainbow flag to the bisexual, transgender, and non-binary flags, there are endless ways to incorporate your Pride into your nail art.
50 Pride Nails to Rock This Month
1. Graphic Negative Space Rainbow Nails
With crisscrossing rainbow hues on one side of the nail and blank space on the other, this Pride manicure is chic and festive. This design requires more precision than Ariana Grande’s winged eyeliner, so unless you have a super-steady hand, use some Scotch tape to get those sharp lines.
2. Bisexual Flag Gradient Nails
With a pretty gradient inspired by the bi flag and a lyric pulled from a Panic! At the Disco song, this mani is the perfect way to put your Pride month mantra on display.
3. Side Accent Pride Nails
Everyone does French Tips on top. What if, just suppose, we moved them to the side?
4. Chrome Rainbow Nails
For a holographic look, these chrome rainbow nails are just the thing. Simple, sparkly, rainbow — do you need any other adjectives? Fine, we’ll go find the dictionary.
5. Blank Space Rainbow Nails
This manicure by Betina Goldstein, celebrity nail tech, pairs primary and secondary colors — see, we totally paid attention in third grade art class! — with trendy blank space to create a diagonally striped rainbow.
6. Neon Glow Pride Nails
With this neon-tipped French manicure, your nails will shine as bright as your pride. Glow on with your bad self! (If you thought we were above neon puns, do you even know us?)
7. Rainbow Almond Pride Nails
Don’t try to snack on these almond-shaped nails. Apparently they have no omega-3s. What they do have is a sparkly, cotton-candy-pink base coat and wavy ribbons of rainbow. Roy G. Biv would approve!
8. Glitter Rain
These nails feature a cute rainbow cloud design, but those sprinkles of glitter rain are perfect. Until you try to get it out of your clothes in the morning.
9. Pansexual Cloud Nails
These blue, yellow, pink, yellow cloud nails are a relatively simple nail design that won’t have you spending hours at the nail salon. Which is good, because we’re run out of things to talk about.
10. Bisexual Flag Stripes
Wear your heart on your sleeve and your flag on your nails with this wavy Bisexual pride flag. We love the slightly space-age vibe thanks to the black polish background. Now where’s our robot bartender?
11. Wavy Trans Flag Nails
Celebrate trans identity with this mani that features curving graphic lines in the pink, white, and blue colors of the Transgender Pride flag.
12. Trans Pride Nails
This pink, white, and blue manicure has it all — glitter glitter and more glitter. And if the long shape is a little too savage for you, this design would look just as rad on almond nails.
13. Pansexual Accent Pride Nails
A star is born when you get this dreamy manicure inspired by the colors of the pansexual flag.
14. Rainbow Accent Nail Art
If you just don’t have the patience to paint 10 fingers with pure Rainbow Brite realness, do an accent nail!
15. Ombre Rainbow Tips
Ombre nails have long outlasted the ombre hair trend, and it’s probably safe to say this minimalist look is here to stay for a while. Try this creative spin on the trend — paint a neutral base coat, then add a subtle sweep of ombre in Pride colors to the tips.
16. Rainbow Paint Drip Nails
This rainbow drip nail art is a good way to show off your artsy side. Even if you’re still working on perfecting stick figures.
17. Rhinestone Cuticle Nails
Keeping these sparkly beauties clean may be work (and not the good kind of werk), but we can’t stop saying yes please to these.
18. Just The Rainbow French Tip
In this fresh take on the French manicure, all the hues of the pansexual rainbow are painted in a tiny space at the top of the nail. The result: a little Pride manicure makes a big impact.
19. Expanded Pride Flag Nails
Celebrate all members of the LGBT community with this divine representation of the inclusive rainbow flag. Oh, and glitter. All the glitter.
20. Unicorn Galaxy Pride Nails
These star-studded nails with a “do me on the rainbow” path are another spectacular way to show your pride.

These inclusive Pride Flag nails are classic and feature a relatively simple design… as far as nail art goes.
22. Ombre Rainbow Pride Nails
A little ombre polish? Don’t mind if we do.
23. Pastel Rainbow and Lesbian Flag Pride Nails
At first, we thought they were wings, then a strange take on accordion blinds, then we realized they were ombre stripes and fell in love. We have the same experience with everything in life.
24. 80s Rainbow Pride Nails
These clouds are giving Rainbow Brite. We’re not sure what to do with her now, but thanks?

Is it something we ate or are these Pride nails intensely Age of Aquarius?
