They should use a very bright white on for the tip of the nail and make a nice sharp "C curve". Then use a natural pink on the nail bed. If this is done correctly you have a really pretty french manicure. Painting or, airbrushing, a french manicure is ok but it can wear off. Having a built in french will never wear off. Every other fill in they would do a back fill and redo the tips as they will grow out. Good Luck and please post a pic when they are done. I am curious to see what method they use. |
My girlfriend says that the people who do the nails at this salon don't speak much English but the owner does. Will they know what I want if I ask for a "built in french"?
You all have been so helpful and I feel so stupid! But I am getting smarter!
