About Modern French Manicures
I use a Russian dry manicure technique to clean the cuticle area before starting, which keeps the growth looking neat for weeks. Whether you want a sharp V-cut, a soft almond shape, or classic white tips, we map it exactly to your nail bed for a perfect, lasting finish.
People often think French manicures are just one standard look, but the options are endless. In my Malad West studio, I love playing with different twists on this timeless style. If you want something bold, we can do a sharp chevron or V-shaped tip. For a bit of shine, I can add a thin line of gold glitter along the smile line or mix in a cat-eye magnetic finish for that extra shimmer.
My process is all about longevity. I use a structural overlay, usually with builder gel, to reinforce your nails so they do not break easily. This is not just about painting the tip; it is about building an apex that gives your nails strength and a natural curve. Whether you prefer short square nails or long almond extensions, I ensure the smile line is symmetrical and clean. If you are prepping for a wedding or just want that classic aesthetic, these sets are designed to last you 4 to 8 weeks. Just bring me your inspiration photos, and we will figure out the right shape and shade for you.
