Nail Sizing Guide
How to Measure Your Nails
Your bespoke set starts with your individual nail measurements. Measure all 10 natural nails in millimetres (mm). Do not convert your measurements into standard nail size numbers.
What you will need
A flexible measuring tape marked in millimetres, or clear tape, a fine pen and a millimetre ruler.
Measure your nail width
- Measure the widest part of your bare natural nail from sidewall to sidewall, following the curve of the nail surface. Do not include the surrounding skin.
- If using clear tape, lay it across the widest part of your nail and mark both sidewalls. Remove the tape and measure the distance between the marks with your ruler.
- Record the width in millimetres. Keep decimal measurements, such as 13.5 mm, rather than rounding to a whole number.
- Repeat for every nail on both hands. Matching fingers can have different widths, so measure each separately.
- Double-check all measurements before ordering.
Record all 10 measurements
Left hand: thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger.
Right hand: thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger.
Enter each width in its corresponding field in the product sizing form. Use your actual measurement in mm, not a nail size number.
Choose shape and length separately
Nail width determines fit. Your chosen shape and finished length are separate from these width measurements. Finished length is measured from the cuticle edge to the tip, not just the part extending beyond your fingertip.
If you are unsure about a measurement, contact Sets by Esh before ordering rather than guessing. Use the notes field for additional sizing information or questions.
