If you like the spooky, superstitious side of Friday the 13th, @nail.kandy’s moon and coffin nail designs might just be your favorite. The matte black and pointed shape don’t hurt either.

Want to keep bad luck at bay this Friday the 13th? An evil eye-inspired manicure, like this set by @courtneycantwell_nails, will redirect any curses coming your way.

The ‘13’ heart? The adorable ghosts? The creepy goat? These Friday the 13th nails by @glonailbar prove you really can have it all, even on the unluckiest day of the year.

Want to lean into those unlucky symbols for your Friday the 13th manicure? Ask your artist for upside down horseshoes, black cats, and creepy numerals, like this eerie set from @victoriasnailsandspamn.

Short nails make great canvases too, as evidenced by these bold, black nails by @nail.kandy, accented by a simple white 13.

Have fun with all the superstitions of the day with nail art like this by @thepolishedbean. If you feel like walking under a ladder or picking up a face-down penny, maybe save it for Monday though, OK?

You don’t have to go all out on the spooky, superstitious vibes to have hardcore Friday the 13th nails. Keep it classic, and classy, with a square French mani, with ultra cool numbers that honor the date, like @beautybyhgd did here.

Do you happen to love horror movies? Well, there’s no better day to celebrate the classic Jason Voorhees movie than Friday the 13th. This manicure by artist @ilaunails includes his mask and machete on a spooky color palette.

Black is considered an unlucky color in many cultures, which is why black cats have a bad reputation. Use them as inspiration for your Friday the 13th nail designs, and mix in some deep red for added effect.
