Gradient nails consist of the transition between two or more colors on one nail. Ex: yellow at the base, to red at the tip, with orange being the transition.
I hope I explained this well enough, but in case I didn't, here are some picture examples :)
This is an example of ombre nails

I in no way mean to offend anyone with this post, I just wanted to share the difference between these to avoid confusion :)

Have you seen the gels that change color by temperature? they could be both gradients to let ombre.

I think they are kind of interchangeable lol. I googled both terms and both were like 99% two colours blending together on one nail.
I had to scroll for a minute or so before even finding your example of ombré.
Whatever people decide to it, it's pretty either way :)

I agree with Courtney.

Ombre: adjective; "having tones of color that shade into each other, graduating from light to dark."
Gradient: noun; "a range of position-dependent colors, usually used to fill a region, that graduate smoothly."
Ombre is a type of linear monochromatic gradient.

Thanks for posting! I was wondering this a few days ago.

The main difference is that one is an adjective and the other a noun. Ombre is an adjective indicating a specific style of color gradient. For example:
She had a blue (adj.) ombre (adj.) manicure (n.).
versus:
She had a monochromatic (adj.) blue (adj.) gradient (n.) on her manicure (n.).
Both sentences said the same thing. They aren't necessarily different concepts, just different ways to describe a technique. You can say gradient instead of ombre is you want, as it is still correct IF you are describing a monochromatic linear gradient.

The terms 'gradient' and 'ombre' are interchangable in specific circumstances (when describing a monochromatic linear gradient) regardless if you're talking about hair, nails, the side of a house, a digital graphic, or whatever. That's what I'm saying. It doesn't matter if it is on each nail, or progressively as skittle nails, the words are the same.
Gradient = any gradual transition of colors
Ombre = a monochromatic linear gradient
If you want to call your ombre nails a gradient, you aren't wrong. Period.
