Megan Fox's Studded Manicure Matches Her New Pink Hair

And her chain link dress.

We've come to expect seeing the coolest, most inventive nails on Megan Fox's fingers. She just has the taste and confidence needed to pull off even the most extreme looks. Out of all the nail designs under her belt, her red carpet moments are always some of her best—she wore a solid gold mani to the 2023 Grammys, studded "Devil Red" tips for a GQ party, and a pink chrome moment for her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover launch party, just to name a few. So, obviously, for this year's Grammy Awards afterparty, she wasn't going to let her hot streak die.

Late on February 4, after Taylor Swift had already won Album of the Year, Victoria Monét had won Best New Artist, and Miley Cyrus Record of the Year, Fox stepped out to celebrate the best and biggest in music in a brand-new, freshly debuted marshmallow pink shag haircut. Of course, she had a matching bright pink manicure on her fingers.

Each of the star's nails matched with the same medium length and almond shape. On top of her classic, go-to silhouette, each nail was coated in a bright bubblegum pink hue, nearly the exact same shade as her shag—only a bit more hot pink. However, it wouldn't be a Megan mani if it stopped there. To garnish each nail, her go-to manicurist, Brittney Boyce, added dark silver gems to the center of the nail. Gothic in shape and design, some resembled the logo of the brand Chrome Hearts, while others had a Fleur-de-lis or classic cross—altogether creating a somehow edgy all-pink mani.

Boyce said that the duo "wanted to do something really fun to complement Megan's new hair color debut." On top of that, they "wanted to tie off the look with chunky 3D silver charms to pair [with] her incredible chain dress." 

The aforementioned dress was a completely see-through chain link moment. Made of small silver circles linked together, it formed a halter neckline and had a mini length—slits up the tiny skirt and dangling silver accents added even more drama. Then, she finished it off with accessories, adding a cuff on her lower lip that was so robot-chic, and a handful of silver rings and matching silver heels.

Luckily for us, the hardest part of recreating this manicure is finding silver charms that resemble hers. But, honestly, even that's not too hard if you've ever used Amazon or Etsy. Plus, we have you covered with the step-by-step to execute it perfectly.

Though Boyce used products that take a bit of expertise to master, you can follow your normal manicure routine—using your natural nails or press-on—with nail polish and gems like hers. Or, you could get adventurous and follow her exact step-by-step.

First, after prepping, Boyce applied a layer of CND Plexigel Bonder (pro-only) and cured it with an LED lamp before shaping the nails into a medium-length almond tip. After filing and buffing them into shape, she went in with two layers of CND Shellac in Kiss From A Rose ($12), curing when the coats were even. With Fox's nails now bright pink, Boyce locked in the color with CND Shellac No-Wipe+ Top Coat ($16) before securing the gems.

While we don't have details on the exact nail charms Boyce used, you could reach for a couple of these cross charms from Etsy ($2) that are nearly identical. Or, you could get a fun set from Amazon ($13) that would surely be Fox-approved. Either way, use the CND Plexigel Builder ($27) or classic nail glue to secure them. Then, dab some CND SolarOil ($7) on your cuticles, and you're after party-ready.
