How to make a perfect French manicure: 6 simple but effective recommendations
The French manicure is a classic that never goes out of fashion. As 20 years ago, so today it remains a symbol of elegance and grooming. However, many manicure masters are not too fond of performing it, because creating perfect thin lines requires high precision and takes more time than conventional coating. In the same time that it takes to do a French, you can do two other manicures!

So how to achieve a flawless result without spending too much time? In our article read - 6 simple but effective recommendations for a perfect French manicure.

1. Properly model the nail plate


To begin with, it is extremely important to properly model the nail plate, because even a perfectly executed French manicure will not look so spectacular if the shape of the nail is unsuccessful. If you greatly reduce the oval of the nail, even the most elegant French manicure will lose its appeal. 

2. Choose a quality brush


Choosing a quality brush is a key aspect in creating the perfect French manicure! The ideal length of the pile is between 7 and 12mm. Too short a pile can create unnecessary vibration, which will make the smile line look uneven. Too long will make it difficult to manoeuvre and will make it harder to make a graceful curve of the French fringe. 

3. Create the perfect smile


Don't hold the brush perpendicular - tilt it to the side of the movement for more precise application. And avoid ‘cleaning up the smile’ from the back side, as this can lead to sloppy and blurred lines. 

4. Consider the viscosity of the material


Not only the level of pigmentation of the material, but also its viscosity is an important factor for perfect frenching. It directly affects the speed of transfer of the product from the brush to the nail surface, which in turn determines the accuracy and precision of the lines. With this in mind, to create a flawless french, it is best to use gel-lacquer of creamy consistency, which allows you to achieve fine and clear lines with maximum ease. 

5. Choose the right camouflage colour


Choosing the right camouflage shade, just like foundation, depends directly on your skin tone. To find the perfect combination, it is enough to apply several shades to the wrist and choose the most harmonious one. This approach ensures that the French manicure will always look flawless. 

6. Take up the performance of French manicure only after you have mastered the necessary skills


Another important aspect is the speed of execution. Clients often lose interest in French manicure due to its long execution time. Therefore, we recommend adding it to your range of services only after you have learnt how to do it not only qualitatively, but also efficiently, with minimum time expenditure.
