A French manicure is about as classic as it gets, but "classic" doesn't have to mean "boring." There are so many ways to update the look. Of course you can keep it timeless with white tips, but if you're looking for something more playful, you can try rainbow ombre tips, glitter nail tips, or use a flash of red polish (like Ashley Graham). Plus, you don't even need to go to a salon to achieve the perfect French tips — they're actually extremely do-able from home. Here's a step-by-step guide for trying your hand at your own French manicure:
Still think French manicures belong at a high school prom? Think again. These photos prove that they will always be in style thanks to these trends. Below, inspiration for your next modern French mani.
Amp up a classic French manicure by using a glittery base and adding some crystal decals along the tip for maximum glitz.
French Manicure Ideas
Neon is always a summer staple. For a subtle pop, try adding it to your French manicure. You can go for a sheer base, or try out a more opaque nude, like Hailey Bieber does here.
This variation puts an elegant twist on the classic. Instead of painting a straight or curved line along the tip of your nail, try painting a V shape, like Bella Hadid.
These citrus-inspired nails are as sweet as it gets. Nail art might look intimidating, but with the right tools, a simple design like this can be super easy — just draw a circle with orange polish, then make two thin dashes with green for leaves, and add a small dollop of white in the middle for more dimension.
Different French Tip Nails That You Need To Know
This chic design is similar to a normal French manicure, but the lines stay thin, making it look more sophisticated. Square nails with rounded white lines keep it fresh.
Can't choose which color to put on the tip? Try a different color for each finger. Keep your base polish sheer to make your tips the star of the show.
This is another great way to use a bunch of different colors. Try picking two complementary colors for each tip. Paint each at an angle going opposite ways, with the color you want to be most prominent on top.
Insanely Cute French Tip Nails To Upgrade The Classic French Nails Manicure
Pick two different colors for each nail, and paint half of the tip with one and the other half with the other. To be as precise as possible, you can use guide strips to make the lines clean.
A peek-a-boo red tip is perfect for an understated mani. Draw a fine line with red polish on one side of your nail to create a small pop of color like Ashley Graham.
Make your nails (and fingers!) look ultra long by extending your French tip down one side of your nail. Shades of magenta make this mani even cuter.
