Sizing

To order a set from Bonobonoya, you need to know your nail measurements. There are multiple options to determine your size:

Purchasing a sizing kit (Recommended):

A sizing kit includes one of every nail size (00-9) in the shape and length of your choosing for you to try on in order to get the best fit. 

Once you know your nail sizes, you can then correspond those numbers to Bonobonoya's standard sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL) which is listed in the chart below, or you can enter your custom size measurements in the custom box before adding the set to your basket.  

Once you purchase a sizing kit in a length and shape of your choosing, you will not need to buy another one in that length/shape again.

If you would like to purchase a set in a shape or length you have not ordered a sizing kit for, then I highly recommend you purchase a sizing kit for that specific length/shape.

Although I use the same brand of tips for all of my press on sets, not all shapes and lengths are the same size which could lead to your nails not fitting correctly. 

Tape method:

Please be aware that there is much more room for error when measuring your nails instead of using a sizing kit which could result in your nails not fitting correctly. 

How to measure your nails (in Milimetres):

Step 1:

  • Place a soft measuring tape over the widest part of your nail and push it down tight to accommodate for the curvature of your nail. Note the width of each nail at the widest part in millimetres. 
OR
  • Stick a strip of tape over the widest part of each nail, pressing it flat against the curve of your nail. Use a pen and mark the width of your nails on the tape. 
  • Remove the tape from your nail, lay it flat against a ruler and measure the distance between the marks on the tape for each nail in millimetres. 

Step 2

Once you have recorded the width in millimetres for each of your nails, use the chart below to find individual nail numbers for each of your fingers (00-9) and select the corresponding size from the chart below. 

Size  Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring, Pinky
XS 3 - 6.5 - 5.5 - 7 - 9 - (13mm, 10mm, 11mm, 9.5mm, 7.5mm)
S 2 - 5.5 - 5 - 6 - 8 - (14.5mm, 11mm, 11.5mm, 10.5mm, 8.5mm)
M 1 - 4.5 - 4 - 5 - 8 - (15.5mm, 12mm, 12.5mm, 11.5mm, 8.5mm)
L 0 - 4 - 3 - 4.5 - 7 - (16mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 12mm, 9.5mm)
XL 00 - 3 - 2 - 4 - 7 - (17mm, 13mm, 14.5mm, 12.5mm, 9.5mm)

 

Important info

If none of the standard sizes fit your nail measurements, please enter your custom measurements in MM in the custom box before adding your set to your basket. 

 

If you need to leave me a note about custom sizes, please leave it in the following format:

    • (Thumb, Index, Middle, Ring, Pinky). For example: Right - 16mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 12mm, 10mm. Left - 16mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 12mm, 10mm. 
  • If you are between sizes, it is safer to go up one size.
  • If you are still unsure about your measurements, please contact me.
