Zipper Nail Design

This design is really quick to do, and you don't need a lot of colors.

1. Paint all the nails with one or two coats of black nail polish or another base color, until opaque.

2. Using a small paint brush or nail art brush, paint the "zipper" on using a white or silver nail polish. Make small dashed lines going back and forth on opposite sides to create the zipper. On another nail, start off the same way, but then mid way through the nail separate the two sides of the sipper with diagonal lines to create an opened zipper effect. 

3. Fill in the triangle at the tip of the nail, the open part of the zipper, with a color of your choice, with a nail art brush or very carefully with a regular nail polish brush applicator. 

4. You can do this design on as many nail as you want. I chose to do a closed zipper on my ring finger and open on my pointer on my left hand, and the reverse on my right hand. You can finish off the look with a topcoat to protect your design.
