I love anything Fourth-of-July themed (hello red, white and blue cupcakes!), but when it comes to nails, I'm declaring independence from cheesy patriotic nail art designs. The founding fathers totally would have wanted it that way.

Instead, I scoured the Pinterest boards, and turned to the nail experts at Paintbox Nail Studio in NYC and celebrity manicurist Jin Soon Choi for your new go-to Fourth of July nails. These manicures are so good, you can wear them even after the fireworks.
