If you had to guess which manicure style Hailey Bieber chose for the first weekend of Coachella, glazed donut nails would be a safe bet. Glazed nails are her signature and have been since they first went viral back in 2022. Bieber has put many fun twists on the aesthetic since those early days of glaze, and now her latest iteration incorporates the trending jelly texture.
Bieber and her husband, Justin, were in attendance for weekend one of the annual music festival, and you know we were paying close attention to her nails. At first, it looked like she had decided upon a simple sheer pink, like the lip gloss nails she also favors, but there was more going on than meets the eye. If you scroll to the fifth picture in her Instagram carousel, you can see that chrome is incorporated into the mani.

Bieber's nails, crafted by manicurist Britney Tokyo, were shaped into her favored long almond and painted a light pink with a see-through, jelly-like texture. There's a subtle 3D drip motif going on, shining with glossy, shimmery, iridescent chrome that disappears in natural light, as you can see in the Instagram Story snapshot below. They're glazed, but not. Magical!
We've seen so many different twists on the glazed nail from Bieber over the past three years. In its early days, she was all about the foodie-inspired mani, showing off shades of chocolate, strawberry, and lemon yellow. A year later, Bieber upped the shine with “mirror glaze” nails and also experimented with pearl-like finishes. What's next? As we head into summer, I'm hoping for more unexpected colors like the smoky purple-mauve shade she wore to a recent awards show or the neon green color she chose for last year's Coachella.
