About The Modern French
The secret to a long-lasting French set is in the prep work. Whether you choose a classic white tip or something wild like rainbow gradients, I always make sure the cuticle care and gel base are rock solid so your nails stay chip-resistant for weeks.
I believe the French manicure is a total mood, not just a standard style. My studio in Sector 7, Gurugram, is where I experiment with everything from neon geometric tips to soft, elegant ombre fades. If you want a bit of sparkle, we can add a glitter line or go full-on with chrome effects.
When you come in for a set, we start by looking at your nail shape—whether you prefer almond, square, or coffin—to see what suits your fingers best. I use high-quality gel polish and professional curing lamps to ensure everything is perfect.
Why my clients love these sets:
- Customization: We don't stick to just white. We can do red, pink, or even multi-colored tips to match your outfit.
- Artistic Touches: I can paint tiny hearts, cherries, or bows on top for that extra bit of cuteness.
- Durability: With proper care, these extensions easily last three to four weeks before needing a refill.
Hygiene is my top priority, so everything is sanitized, and I use fresh gloves for every client. If you have a specific inspo picture you found online, bring it along. I love recreating styles and adding my own touch to make them yours.
