Red and white French manicure
It's no secret that fashion goes in a circle, and everything new is well forgotten old. Therefore, it is not surprising that modern trends and trends in manicure are based on classic options for nail design.
The color combination of red and white is gaining great popularity in the field of nail design., decorated in the manner of the French style. This option is a bright and contrasting embodiment of traditional French manicure, which every fashionista should take a closer look at.
Color palette
The combination of white and red can hardly be called classic. Nevertheless, it looks quite stylish and interesting: the brightness of the red is muted by calm white, and the monotonous whiteness, in turn, is diluted with a contrasting accent - a "duet" of shades, each of which perfectly complements the other.
Despite the fact that the red color of manicure is traditionally considered bold and even a little defiant, in this version it takes on a completely different meaning.
White, in turn, is considered a basic and even a little boring base.
However, lovers of non-standard nail design should not bypass it - in this design it will be an excellent addition.
Design options
There are a huge variety of ways to decorate your nails with white and red French style. Below are some interesting design ideas.
- Complete staining. If you adhere to this method, then as the end result you can get a nail completely filled with a colored coating.There are two ways to do this: cover the main area of the nail plate with white varnish, and make the tip red, or, conversely, the tip is painted white and the rest of the nail is red.
- Custom stripe. The stripe applied to the tip of the nail is an integral part of the classic French manicure. However, the shape of the crescent moon is no longer a required method of applying it. Today, nail service masters offer a wide variety of options: straight and diagonal lines, stripes with diamond and triangular ends, and much more.
- Additional shades. Despite the fact that the main goal is manicure on nails with red and white colors, additional shades can be added to the design of nails.
For example, for contrast, you can consider blotches of black, to create a festive and solemn mood - silver and gold tones, to give femininity and tenderness - light pink accents.
- Drawings. A fairly common method of decorating nails is applying drawings of various directions on them. These can be abstractions, geometric patterns or floral prints.
- Turn upside down. Modern fashion (and this applies not only to nail design) loves to revise and refute long-familiar traditional values. In this regard, a new version of French manicure has emerged - an inverted jacket. In order to stylize the nails for such a design, a thin line is drawn not at the tip, but at the base of the nail.
- Chic and shine. If a traditional jacket in red and white tones seems to be too everyday a way to decorate nails, then it is worth adding additional elements - rhinestones, beads or crystals. It will be appropriate to follow the line at the tip of the nail to build a line of rhinestones, thereby further accentuating it. You can also create a mirror image by placing crystals at the base of the nail. Glitter can be used to create patterns or outlines of shapes in the middle of the nail plate.
- Color dualism. French manicure is one accent line and a colored nail plate. But what if you applied two accent lines in different colors? This is exactly what you can do with red and white varnish.
Lines should be created completely identical or, conversely, differing, for example, in thickness.
- A variety of textures. The combination of glossy and matte textures is gradually becoming a classic option for nail design. It also did not pass the French manicure in red and white tones.
Fashion brings big surprises - new ways to design and stylize nails are replacing the classic and considered traditional design options. For example, red and white French manicure has become one of the fashion trends. There are many options for bringing this design to life, of which everyone will find a variety to their liking.
