Tenniscore: The Tennis Trend Taking Over This Summer 2024
Last year #Barbiecore took over our social media feeds but this year they’re looking a lot less pink! Since the release of Zendaya’s latest Challengers movie, everyone is loving her method dressing for the red carpet. And like all things Zendaya, it has inspired a wealth of amazing nail designs.
#tenniscore
The elegance of classic tennis attire inspires the #tenniscore trend. Think preppy polo tops and crisp cottons, to quintessential tennis whites. The sporty nails trend has inspired people to play with their fashion and accessories, including replicating Zendaya’s own white stilettos with tennis balls attached to the heels. An easy way to join the trend is via nail art.
One thing that makes this trend a little different is that it takes inspiration from a sport. This means that the nails we're seeing are usually short and soft with a squoval shape, making them practical and easy to wear. It needs to be a style that Zendaya’s character, Tashi Duncan, could wear on the tennis court.
Elegant options
The cleanest way to play with this trend is to update the classic French manicure or a micro French tip with a colour switch. So instead of white tips, try tennis ball neon yellow or green. Apparently Zendaya has adopted a style she calls 'Fancy French', which is a white-tipped manicure with a chrome finish.
For a more impactful appearance, use cool colours on your nails then finish with a shiny topcoat in gold or silver. This will give your nails a trophy-worthy finish and is the perfect option for those with shorter nails too.
Wimbledon nail inspo
For clients who want a full-on tennis nail art, think about colour combinations of yellow, green, white and blue nail polishes. Take inspiration from the patterns of the rackets, to the nets, to the white lines of the tennis ball. Even well-known sports brand logos, such as the Nike swoosh or the Adidas three-leaf-shaped design are classics that people will recognise.
Even the tennis court lines can look stunning when recreated with a steady hand! With Wimbledon in July, this trend is here to stay for a little while longer.
Where to find #tenniscore nail inspo
Pinterest has a useful search feature for trends. You can also search by skintone to find the best color options for different skin tones. For video tutorials, TikTok is your best option. Simply type tenniscore and nails and you’ll find tons of videos, including how to add a fluffy, tennis ball-like top coat.

Hi Sophie, tell us a little bit about your journey and how you go into the industry and what lead up to starting out on your own?
I gained a lot of knowledge from working in different settings from working with a big teams in a 5 star hotels and spas to smaller beauty salon environments. I gained so much knowledge from working in both settings and although it was hard work and long hours.
I started out by working in a few different 5 star hotels with spas and a salons where I gained all my knowledges and experiences from each one to put together for my own business! It was hard work and long hours all the practice paid off. It was actually one of my clients I saw regularly in the salon I worked at that said I should set up on my own and gave me the confidence to go self-employed and I’ve not looked back since!
Something Old - Something New
Does the bob ever go out of style? Short answer: No. The reason for the evergreen appeal of the bob is because, depending on the length, it’s a look that can suit any face shape or hair texture. Right now, it can be anything from a short and swingy French girl bob, a luxurious long bob, or a razor-cut curly bob. For Tori Kiff, it’s about keeping things fresh with the addition of a fringe.
“I love updating a classic curly bob with a fringe, especially as so many of my curly clients seem to think it’s a style they shouldn’t have. I’ve managed to show so many clients that it’s all down to fear and that actually, a curly bob is so flattering and easy to style; I advise them to use their fingers to curl their fringes or to use a brush when styling,” shares Tori.
Of course, the most modern way to wear a bob is the Bixie, a hybrid of the bob and pixie; think classic bob updated with a fringe or micro bangs, or you could play with the Butterfly Bob. RUSH Creative Director Andy Heasman’s a fan.
