About
The New Nails TikTok Trend is a trend on TikTok in which women post videos showing off their nails while their hands hover over or touch their boyfriends' crotch region in order to show the outline of their penis, the boyfriends often wearing sweatpants or other loose clothing. The trend, often set to the song "White Tee" by Summer Walker, was first posted to TikTok as early as April 2021, becoming further popularized over the following years.
