Service Description
Your French tip appointment includes full nail preparation: shaping, cuticle care, and buffing for a smooth canvas. Your technician will discuss your preferred tip style, whether classic white, soft nude, colored, or micro.
Using steady, practiced hands, your technician paints clean, even tips followed by a sheer base coat. For minimalist nail art, design elements are added with fine brushes or stamps for precision.
The finished look is sealed with a high-shine top coat, or cured with LED for gel or shellac French tips. The result is effortlessly sophisticated nails that complement any outfit.
