How to measure nail bed?

Published in Nail Measurement 1 min read

To measure your nail bed, especially for purposes like getting the correct size of artificial nails, you can follow these steps:

Here’s a breakdown of how to measure the width of your nail bed, which is the most common measurement needed:

  1. Prepare Your Nail: Place Scotch tape around the widest part of your nail.

  2. Mark the Sidewalls: Use a pen to mark where your nail's sidewalls are on the tape.

  3. Measure the Tape: Remove the tape and stick it to a flat surface.

  4. Use a Ruler: Measure the distance between the two pen marks on the tape with a ruler. This measurement represents the width of your nail bed at its widest point.
