The nail shape that is completely straight across with no rounding at the edges is the:

  1. Oval

  2. Round

  3. Almond

  4. Square

The correct answer is: Square

There are several different nail shapes that are currently popular, but the nail shape that is completely plain and has no rounding at the edges is the square shape. This answer is not Oval, as it has slightly curved edges. It is also not Round, as it is not completely curved. Additionally, Almond is a more tapered shape with a pointed tip, making it incorrect as well. Square is the only option that accurately describes a nail shape with straight edges and a flat top.
