A plain burgundy pedicure suddenly feels a little too well-behaved for October. This year’s Halloween toes are darker, shinier and frankly more fun, with black-cherry jelly, gel magnetic gold, tortoiseshell and tiny details that feel Halloween-y without turning your feet into a costume. Even the classic orange-and-black combination is getting a 2026 update through French tips, gradients and high-gloss gel.The best part is that most of these pedicure trends don’t expire at midnight on October 31. A patent-black gel still works in November, tortoiseshell practically belongs with fall shoes, and black cherry needs no Halloween excuse at all. So if you have a nail salon appointment ahead of October, these 10 looks give you plenty to choose from, whether you want subtly witchy or full-on Halloween-spooky.
