Grunge was a huge fashion trend back in the 90s and I have to admit that I gave in to it there for a while. While flannels and grungy jeans haven't completely made their comeback yet, grunge nail art is having a moment. I think you'll love how unique and fun it can be. Here are some looks to inspire your next nail art session.

Frequently asked questions
Oh, grunge nail art is all about embracing that edgy, rebellious vibe. It’s inspired by the 90s grunge fashion and music scene, so think of dark colors, like blacks and deep purples, with some cool, distressed textures. It’s perfect for when you want to add a little rock 'n' roll to your nails!
Absolutely! With a few basic tools like dark nail polishes, a sponge for texture, and maybe some metallic accents, you can totally DIY grunge nails at home. Don’t worry about perfection—imperfections are actually part of the charm!
You'll definitely want some deep, moody colors. Think blacks, dark reds, dark greens, and purples. Adding metallic hues like silver or even a bit of glitter can really up the vibe if you're feeling extra!
Not at all! While they’re super popular in the fall and winter because of the darker palette, grunge nails can absolutely be rocked any time of the year. It’s all about how you mix the colors and the designs.
Mix it up with some custom designs! Try incorporating geometric patterns, distressed textures, or a splash of neon color here and there. Adding small embellishments like studs or tiny gems can also give your nails an extra unique touch.
