Short nails will be extremely popular in 2016. So, following new fashion trends, the classic French technique changes a little. Instead of the common semicircular rim, smiles of various shapes will be used - waves, squares, pointed teeth, and so on. Such an element will look very unusual and attractive in classic white.
The 2016 fashion shows were replete with quite interesting options for French manicure. The presented new types of French manicure show how designers approach its creation. Using a special sponge during the process of applying the edges of the manicure on the sides makes it possible to create a rain effect, when the edges between the smile and the main color do not look clear, as if blurred by water. It is worth noting that such a technique is very difficult to perform, so it is advisable to entrust the creation of such a manicure to an experienced master.

Fans of the classic version of the French jacket should not be upset, because you can be fashionable and stylish without changing your habits. You can paint your nail plates in milky shades, flesh-pink, soft light green, the main thing is that the color of the varnish complements the image.
When choosing aggressive colors to paint a smile, you should take into account the characteristics of the nail plate. If you have short nails, then your smile should be thin. Not every girl will do almost jewelry work, so manicurists will not be able to complain about the lack of clients for a long time.
French with gold and silver tips
Gold nail designs attract many due to the attractiveness of the gold color on the eye. The manicure will look richer and more elegant. Most often and most successfully, gold is combined with black, which provides the desired contrast and highlights the gold color even more. To create the illusion of richly decorated nails, gold is often combined with silver, for example, varnishes, foil or studs. The gold nail design in the photo will give the most complete idea of this style of nail decoration. There are many ways to create gold nail designs using glitter particles.
The most common is to apply varnish with golden shimmer or golden mica. They decorate the entire nail in this way, or make patterns or frame the tip of the nail plate in a French manicure style. Mica and glitter can be part of the varnish, or they can be applied dry. Mica can be very different - round, octagonal, in the form of rectangular thin strips. You can also make a golden design on your nails using gold foil; you can cut out various figures from the foil or apply it to the entire nail. Do not forget to apply special glue or select special foil - self-adhesive.

If you want to extend the life of your favorite design, then you should resort to using gel polish, known for its durability.

Gel polish allows you to create real masterpieces in the field of French manicure. Thanks to its exceptional properties, which guarantee the durability of the result, you can use sliders that imitate the most delicate lace, powder, with the help of which unique patterns reminiscent of panne velvet, molded elements, sparkles and rhinestones are created.
There are two ways to apply a French manicure.
The first is to treat the nails using the classic method, then the cuticles are trimmed and the nails are given a perfectly even shape. Then a protective base is applied under the varnish, and stencils are glued to the edge of each nail. If you don't have stencils on hand, you can use tape. White varnish is applied to the edge of the stencil, after which the varnish should be allowed to dry and the stencils should be removed. The inner surface of the nail can also be painted over with white varnish; flesh-colored varnish or colorless varnish is applied over the entire base. The varnish can be applied in two layers, it is important to ensure that it lies evenly. To preserve the result for a long time, you should resort to using a nail polish fixer; it will preserve the design and attractiveness of the applied manicure for a long time.

After this, the white varnish should be allowed to dry and a colorless base should be applied to the entire surface of each nail.
