french as a color

French manicure

I got my second French manicure today at a different nail salon than when I had one done before Jessica’s wedding, and again the white tips seem too wide. I should have said something to the nail technician before he put on the top coat, but again I kept my mouth shut. Why do I do that?

If it happens a third time, I’ll be convinced that Omahans don’t know how to do French manicures.

It’s quite possible I’m too picky. It’s not like they’re a disaster. I’ll just deal with them until the next time I feel like splurging on a manicure (what a splurge –$13 for a French). Usually I just a solid dark color, like OPI’s Russian Navy or Who Are You Wearing? I’m convinced that OPI polish lasts longer on my fingers than any other brand.

What color are you wearing?

    I think your French manicure looks fine. I’ve been in the beauty industry for almost 18 years and I’ve seen plenty of good and bad manicures.

    Here’s the tip I give all my clients that are moving to new cities and they don’t know any hairstylists or manicurists. When you are at the grocery store or where ever, check out the other womens nails around you and always ask them where they get theirs done. A personal referral is always the best way to find a stylist or manicurist.

    ps. tell J I said hi
