No need for a [boring manicure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/french-manicure-kit) when the Meownicure is around.

This adorable tutorial shows cat-lovers how to get their nails completely perfect. By simply using some black and white nail polish with a little bit of patience, your nails will be adorned by cute [cat faces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mofusand). First apply the black color to the tips of the nail in a moon shape, then with a steady hand add some face detailing in white. The process is very simple with excellent results.

Though the Meownicure only shows a black kitty, it is only a starting point for inspiration. A little bit of experimentation and you can dedicate your nails to a beloved cat. Try out this [nail DIY](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-products) to add a little fierceness to your hands.
