I feel u @ Byuty ....but dont u think the american 1 looks more natural ...as per there's no white ?....and if there make a single mistake with the french I think it can look trashy too.

Thx @ Chclat .....what can i say ***ahem *** i do my bit ...the rest is genetic.

LORD NO ......LOL

I'd never get anything like that done on my hands .... that screams TRASH soo loud It;'ll wake my mama up.

The only place I have patterns on is maybe my toes.

American manicure looks just like a french manicure ....only diffrence is that the base is a richer /dare i say more artificial color ...its kinda pinkish ...and theres n0 strip of white . u just leave the tips as they are .

that's not ameican style that's just str8 ghetto.

Lately I prefer wearing my nails natural and clean ( clear nailpolish ) I think it looks so natural and nice... sometimes I wear white nailpolish on my toes I'm definitely into CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN nails.. no colors.. not too much upkeep so they always look good...

When it cums to gettin the nails done . . . I am an expert, jare. . . I will always and foreva be tru to the American stlye manicure . . . and the best colors for such a style are frozen smoke (it looks silver, but when the light hits it at an angle it's a soft blue) . . . . platinum (not the loud, but soft kind) . . . and silver . . . those have always been my colors . . . and I believe they look good on the dark-skinned females, sha . . . . Now when it cums to airbrushes, designs w/ the paints, and long out of control type nails . . . . now that is just plan soulful . . . . in fact it is time for a refill . . .
