Not boring classics - options for an unusual design of French manicure

French manicure is a timeless classic. It is ideal for both everyday looks and special occasions. If you are tired of the natural shades and traditional designs of this type of manicure, take a look at the ideas below. Among them you will find original options and unusual ways of implementing them.

Despite the traditionalism of the jacket, every year the manicure masters come up with new versions of its execution. We invite you to familiarize yourself with the new trends that have already won the hearts of many beauties around the world.

An elegant take on a familiar design. The nails, the tips of which are treated with gold or silver lacquer, look extraordinarily attractive. If you use a light base, then this option can be used for every day. It will not look too flashy and defiant.

The dark base for the golden jacket makes it festive and elegant. What color to make it depends on the color of your outfit on a particular evening.

There are several options here. Either the tips are painted black, or the entire plate. It will look especially interesting in matte finish. In this case, the free edge can be executed in beige or gold. This will give your manicure a special chic.

For a more relaxed and neutral manicure, use a nude base polish and paint the tips black.

A white tip can give originality to bright red nails. At the same time, it is not forbidden to combine such a bright manicure with a lunar one. This will create an aesthetic and elegant look. Another option is to decorate the ring finger with rhinestones and other decorative elements. At the same time, it is not necessary to perform it using the French manicure technique.

If you can combine white and nude shades in a jacket, then why not do the same with more saturated colors. This is a great idea for a bold summer look. For example, a basic blue color with a blue free edge of the nail can become a variant of a navy jacket. You can choose the right combinations using a special "designer circle" of colors, by which you will surely find a companion for the shade you like.

Despite new trends and technologies, classic French manicure still sounds relevant. And it is not at all necessary to be the owner of long nails. On medium and short lengths, it looks very aesthetically pleasing. And the time for incredibly long extended nails has already passed. This type of manicure is acceptable always and everywhere. He is able to withstand the requirements of even the most stringent dress code.

This option should not be confused with a moon manicure. In a reverse jacket, an area along the nail growth line is formed with a contrasting (or just another) shade. It perfectly matches its shape. With this design, the marigolds look longer.

If you are a fan of shellac, then you know how unaesthetic this area looks when nails begin to grow back. This is especially true for a bright manicure. If you arrange the growth line in flesh or pastel colors, then it will not stand out much.

Nobody forbids you to apply all the colors of the rainbow at once on one hand. To prevent it from looking too bright and childish, paint them only on the tips of your fingers. This will add a touch of playfulness to your manicure. You can ask the master to use the gradient principle as well. When one color will smoothly flow into another, but already on the next finger.

The French does not have to be performed precisely along the line of the smile. Make your own rules into this dogma. Let them have a certain inclination to one side or the other. The appearance of the manicure will only benefit from this. When using classic colors, you will not lose that tenderness and femininity that a jacket gives, but will make it original and interesting in its own way.

Such a design will require some skill or aids. This could be your regular adhesive tape for your design. Apply base coat, dry. Now place the tape in a curved shape over the imaginary border (where you would have the white tip start). Paint the entire nail with white (or any other color) and remove the tape. You will end up with an empty line.

In order to get an original French manicure, it is not necessary to lay out all your nails with rhinestones or use super bright colors. Even small changes and deviations from the canons will make the image interesting and unique.

There are two options here. Either initially set a beveled shape to the nails, and then emphasize it with a symmetrical line, or simply draw a smile line not in the shape of a regular crescent, but obliquely. In this case, it is not necessary to make it even, it can also have a rounding. It looks very feminine and romantic.

If you are not a fan of radically bright and catchy colors, then you can use a calmer scale. Just let it not be the usual beige or pink.You can experiment with colors like fuchsia, gray, or lilac. This will add personality to the manicure.

If the summer is sunny, or you are going on vacation to hot countries, then why not emphasize the sunny mood with a bright fruit manicure. Better to do it on long or medium nails. The free edge is decorated with images of fruits. It can be juicy slices of orange, lemon, lime, or even watermelon slices.

This design will differ from the classic French manicure only in the smoothness of the transition. In this case, it is better to adhere to standard proportions. You can choose the colors at your discretion, but it is better to leave their number unchanged (maximum 2 colors).

In this design, any color will sparkle with new colors. To be more precise, it will lose its shine and will look completely different. Before the master covers the nail with a matte finish, ask to demonstrate the result on a template. After all, the resulting shade may differ significantly from its glossy counterpart, and there is no guarantee that you will definitely like it.

Not only rhinestones can decorate French manicure. If you show your imagination, then you can use various patterns in the decor. We present to you some ideas for inspiration that will show that a jacket can be very interesting and original.

They can bloom not only in a spring garden or park, but also on your nails. In this case, it does not matter at all what time of year it is outside the window. Although such motifs sound more relevant in spring and summer, no one will reproach you with bad taste if you do it in winter. It is easy to argue that there is always spring in your soul.

Yes, such a design will give the master a little more trouble than a regular jacket. But the result is worth it. The peculiarity is that not one colored line flaunts at the tip, but two (although there may be three, but this is already a triple jacket). The classic combinations are:

• white, beige, gold;
• red, pink, white;
• white, blue, light blue.

But you can choose your own shades and combinations.

By applying these beautiful patterns only to your fingertips, you will create the illusion of a French manicure. Upon closer examination, it will be clear that these are beautiful intricacies that make the fingers even more delicate. This option is suitable both for office style of clothing (if you use neutral colors) and for more formal occasions. For a special occasion, you can also choose bright duets. Try red patterns on pink or gold on black.

Their diversity is amazing. You can understand what your master is capable of from photographs, works made by him or from available templates. In order not to explain for a long time in a beauty salon exactly which patterns and in what quantities you need, save a photo with the manicure you like in advance. So, you will avoid misunderstandings, and get exactly the result you dreamed of.

Another interesting way to make an original jacket. The easiest way is to use special stickers or film. It is applied to the tip and secured with a top coat. So, you will not have to worry that it will come off in the process of wearing.

The nail itself should be painted in natural pastel colors. Special stampings or the ability to draw will help to create the effect of a jacket and a veil at the same time. In the classic version, the tip is painted black, and a simple mesh or lace is drawn on the plate.

An option that suits girls and teenagers.On ladies of Balzac's age, it will look inappropriate. The flight of your imagination will tell you exactly what color to make both the tip itself and the polka dots on it.

French manicure in a duet with a reverse jacket forms a neat framing of the nail. This effect can be enhanced by continuing the line on both sides of the marigold. It is better to entrust such a delicate process to the experienced hands of a master. Since at home you run the risk of getting not a stylish manicure, but a miserable parody.

When doing French manicure, the tips do not have to be solid. You can decorate them with interesting leopard or tiger stripes. In this case, it is better to leave the color of the main nail plate neutral, since the design itself is very bright.

This charming person can perfectly decorate your manicure with her presence. Just do not draw this mysterious pussy on each of the nails. As you can imagine, beige and pink tones will be an excellent background for a black cat.

In addition to using different shades, you can dilute the jacket with the original decor.

The classic version, which can be both casual and flaunt on the nails of the bride.

You can create the illusion of sunbeams on your own nails using the kamifubuki (shiny circles) technique. The master skillfully places them on the nail without overlapping the existing jacket.

With the help of the gel, skilled craftsmen can not only correct the shape of nails, but also create real volumetric compositions. Delicate flower will be a great addition to a classic or colored jacket.

This version of the French manicure looks very playful. It will be enough to decorate one of the marigolds with a bow.

French manicure with lace looks very gentle and romantic. This option is suitable for both a romantic date and a wedding look.

The oblique French manicure is complemented by a delicate pattern. This gives the image of originality and sophistication.

Black matte jacket looks very stylish and bright. Gold stripes accentuate the matte finish and gloss. Luxurious manicure, worthy of a real fatal beauty.
