Using a thin-tipped brush and white nail polish, trace the outline of a wavy shape across each nail. Use the regular nail polish brush to fill in the shape, up to the end of the nail.

Use a clean thin-tipped brush and black nail polis to draw black waves on top of the white shape, following the original curves of the white. Finish with a layer of clear top coat.
