Double French - what is it?
This technique is performed on the basis of classic French manicure, a characteristic feature of which is a base of beige or pink color, as well as a snow-white "smile" - the grown edge of the nail plate.
In this case, the shape of the nail can be round or square, and the length is usually medium or short. However, not everyone has long aristocratic fingers, so short nails with a nude jacket visually look wider, which is why the hand loses its elegance. But a colored double jacket in the form of a pattern of diagonal or longitudinal stripes will help make the plates not only visually narrower, but also original.

In fact, a fashionable double manicure is performed using three colors, while it is more unusual and more complex than the traditional one. In particular, the “smile” line is covered with two colors. One of the tones is considered the main one, the second strip runs along the edge of the nail and can be of any width. For this reason alone, this option requires a sufficient length, moreover, it is rather difficult to do it on short edges.

A fashionable jacket can be performed in a purely classic style, when the bed is covered with a transparent gel polish, and the edge is white. Then the only difference will be a stripe of a different color, drawn along the "smile".
But you can also use extravagant combinations of bright colors and shades - white with red, black, silver or gold.
For a festive look, sparkles, volumetric stickers, drawings in the form of flowers, geometric shapes, monograms and hieroglyphs are suitable.

Design
Long nails can be double French manicure using natural neutral tones. For a short jacket, it is better to choose shades of the same tone, or at least matching colors - pink and red, blue and blue, brown and beige. In most cases, a double stripe is performed only on the overgrown tips, but the border can also pass at the base of the bed.
The best ideas for double-grin french include some interesting options.
- The best decor is always done with one white stripe, while the other should be in harmony with the main tone.
- Classic manicure - the tip of the nail is highlighted with a thin black and white border, the rest of the plate is covered with transparent varnish.
- The lady's taste will be emphasized by a jacket with vertical stripes. The main requirement is clear geometry.
- It is better to place diagonal stripes on one side of the plate, and to the edge they should go smoothly and evenly.
- A double "smile" looks beautiful on one or two fingers of both hands (on the middle and ring).
- A beautiful, rather simple, but elegant option is nails covered with nude or white varnish with a silver or gold border. The same jacket on a black background is suitable for an evening dress.

Execution technique
If the marigolds are short, then it is better to entrust the procedure to the master, but for a sufficient length, including artificially extended, it is possible to perform a double jacket on your own.
The procedure is described below.
- First, the hygienic treatment of the nail plate is carried out.
- Then a protective layer of gel polish is applied and dries well.
- The lightest of the two selected shades is applied to the edge and dried. If necessary, it makes sense to reapply.
- After that, you need to stick the stencil. If the darker tone is the main one, then the strip is glued in such a way as to completely cover the free edge. In the case when a dark varnish is used to outline the area near the cuticle, then one strip should be located near the "smile" line, and the other - strictly parallel to it, so that there is a distance between them for painting.
- The nail is colored in stages and dried thoroughly.

The use of additional decorative ornaments is allowed - then the top coating is applied on top.
If you want to decorate a jacket with two arches with a pattern, then it is wiser to take a natural base, and draw the stripes very thinly. A stencil in the form of lace in a different color can be applied to a wide border. Drawings stretched along the nail plate look more aesthetically pleasing.
The main colors that continue to be in trend are purple, burgundy, violet, wine.
