Step 1
First step is super simple - paint your nails with a white polish. Honestly, I wouldn't even bother painting two coats. You'll be covering it up anyway!
Step 2
Next, this is pretty much what you'll be doing with each color polish. Pick a starting point (near the center) and spiral out. I would recommend starting with your red/pink if you're doing a rainbow themed tie dye.
Step 3
Follow up with orange.
Step 4
and yellow.
Step 5
I actually skipped green because the nails I did put it on, it was barely visible and it was getting cramped on my nails. So turquoise/blue it is!
Step 6
and purple. Don't worry if you have extra white space. We will take care of that.
Step 7
Fill your open space (if any) with colors that make sense in that spot . As you can see, I used my pink polish again to fill the space.
Step 8
top coat it and you're done! definitely not as difficult as it seems!
