# Expanded Nail Art Designs Cuticle Tattoos by Rad Nails is a Combination of Manicures and Henna Art By Meghan Young | Published 2014-04-21 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuticle-tattoos References: [news.instyle](http://news.instyle.com/2014/04/18/would-you-give-your-cuticles-tattoos-yes-its-the-next-era-of-nail-art) & [shop.radnails](http://shop.radnails.com) The next evolution of the [nail art fad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festival-inspired-nail-art) comes in the form of Cuticle Tattoos. As though blending manicures with the art of henna, it brings another dimension to the [nail craze](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mylee) that has taken over the lives of many chic women. Considering that delicate tattoos are all the rage as well, these [temporary Cuticle Tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barriere) could inspire permanent ones in the near future. Designed by [Rad Nails](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rad-nails), which was founded by Chrissy Mahlmeister, who teamed up with graphic designer (and boyfriend) Joshua Covarrubias, the Cuticle Tattoos currently come in three styles: Another Round, Your Point? and In a Pinch. They go on black, but perhaps Rad Nails will introduce more colors in soon. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Temporary Body Art:** Cuticle Tattoos are part of the trend towards temporary body art and could inspire more permanent designs. - **Combination of Art Forms:** Cuticle Tattoos are an example of combining different art forms to create a new trend. - **Nail Art Evolution:** Cuticle Tattoos represent the next iteration of the evolving trend of nail art. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Beauty:** The beauty industry can explore the trend of Cuticle Tattoos and offer them as a service. - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can incorporate Cuticle Tattoos into runway shows and photo shoots. - **Temporary Tattoos:** The temporary tattoo industry can expand their offerings to include Cuticle Tattoos as part of their product line. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI Nail Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-designs-ai.md) - [AI Nail Designers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artinails.md) - [Citrus-Inspired Press-Ons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sumo-citrus-x-chillhouse.md) - [30-Second Nail Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/30-sec-nails.md) - [Men's Temporary Nails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/temporary-nails-for-men.md) - [AI Nail Art Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-designs-co.md) - [Modular Nail Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modul.md) - [Color-Shifting Smart Press-Ons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipolish.md) - [Lifestyle-Inspired Press-On Nails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-collections.md)
