Growing in popularity with each passing day, duck nails have made a comeback. Honestly, if you ask us...we really don't know how to feel about it. Including most of the internet, that's divided because some find it beautiful and others find it plain bizarre. It's evident, you will either hate it or book your next nail appointment by the time you are done reading this article.

Thanks to TikTok and various social media platforms, duck nails aren't an old trend. Back in 2012, they became reeeally popular because Snookie from Jershey Shore was seen sporting this trend. These are also called fanned-out tips or even flare nails. The nails resembled a duck's webbed feet, which means they aren't exaactly pretty!!

One of the major reasons why this OTT nail trend has made a comeback is because of the rise of the Y2k aesthetic on social media which is also about fashion in the late '90s and early-to-mid 2000s.

While many call it hella cheugy, it does give people an ample amount of room to create quirky designs. Whether you like them or not, you can always garner some inspiration in case you choose to change your mind! Here's some for you below...
