Who said French Manicures have to be white every time? Put a modern twist on the classic design by dipping the ends in a dark shade. This edgy and fresh style adds an instant rockstar feel to your fingers and will polish off any outfit you wear. Keep the tips thin for a chic feel – it’s a sharp and fresh option to try for the days when you’re feeling a bit badass.

What Are French Tips?
Now that we know where the name comes from, what are French tips actually, and how do you achieve this classic look?

French tips refer to the white polish on the tips of the nails, above the base of the nail which is traditionally painted in a pinkish nude tone. The look is meant to provide a more bold replication of nails’ natural colors, though today you’ll see French manicures in a wide range of shades that certainly look anything but natural.

To achieve a picture perfect French manicure, most manicurists rely on French tip guides in order to achieve as clean of a line as possible between the base of the nail and the tip. After applying a base coat, the guides are applied and then white is painted on the tips and a pale shade on the base, followed by a top coat. And just like that, a stunning and simple French manicure is complete.

💐 Let the nails reflect the light and make your manicure a true eye-catcher. Nothing would make you feel loved by pampering yourself with a perfect set of nails. Visit our nail salon New Orleans today!
