Let’s flash back to middle school when the girls with the freshest nails were something to admire. Getting the pleasure of going to a salon, picking a color and possibly a design equaled HEAVEN in the life of a prepubescent teen!

Now that we Madames are older and more…ahem… sophisticated, a trip to the nail shop is a matter of fact. It doesn’t take much for us to drop a few dollars to keep our nails ‘so fresh and so clean.’

But of course there are the girls, now women, who still revel in the joys of nail artistry. Technology in the realm of nail cosmetology has expanded so much that lace, rhinestones, gold and even Swarovski crystals can be used to switch up your look.

Any celebrity can wear a beautiful dress or rock her hair a certain way, but when it comes to nails, that’s where creativity can be explored to the max.

Check out which celebrities we think have the freshest nail game:

Serena Williams

Williams surprised many when she decided to branch out of the realm of sports and get a nail technician license. When she sat down with Vogue writer, Marina Rust to do her nails she said, “When I was fifteen, sixteen, I made half my room into a nail salon. I had the table, the chair, the rack against the wall with 50 nail polishes.” Clearly she’s on her game on the court and with her nail styles.
