Which of the following is NOT a type of basic nail shape?

Cone
Pointed
Round
Squoval

The correct answer is: Cone

The correct answer is that "Cone" is not considered a basic nail shape. Basic nail shapes typically include rounded, pointed, square, and squoval (a square-oval hybrid). These shapes are commonly recognized within the nail technician industry and widely used in nail design. The term "Cone" does not refer to a commonly accepted nail shape in professional nail care. The other shapes mentioned are all standard classifications that nail technicians learn to create for various styles and preferences. Rounded shapes provide a softer silhouette, pointed shapes add a dramatic flair, and squoval shapes merge the clean edges of square nails with the softness of rounded shapes, catering to a diverse clientele. Each of these shapes has distinct characteristics and purposes in nail design, highlighting their importance in nail technician training.
