Coffin nails, also known as ballerina nails, is a specific shape for artificial or natural nails. The name “coffin” refers to the shape’s resemblance to the tapered shape of a coffin. Coffin nails are characterized by their long length and squared-off tips, gradually tapering into flat, straight edges. They are often filed to create a shape that is similar to a coffin or ballerina slipper, hence the name. Coffin nails are a popular choice in the world of nail art and are commonly used in toe nail services to create a stylish and unique look.
