What do you like better: french manicure or brightly colored nails?

Question

Also do you suggest doing acrylics or fake nails or natural? (I'm not really the type of person to do my nails too much, but I figured I'd try something new and see if I like it)

Answer 1

if you wanna be different, bright colors!
more classic, french manicure.
i personally love both.

Answer 2

depends. colored nails are fun and edgy, but a French manicure goes with anything and is really pretty and classic. i do both.

And do natural. fake nails are trashy and acrylics really screw up your nails (but if you MUST, do acrylics over fake nails) If you don't do you nails too much, DON'T do fake or acrylic because, as I said, it will really ruin your natural nails and take forever to grow them back out. If you french manicure don't go all out and ghetto (actually, you can only do ghetto french manicure if you where fake nails). have fun with it!

Answer 3

It depends on my mood. Mostly I do bright colors. Also i like to do my french in different colors as well. I dont agree with the people who say dont get acrylics because they damage your nails. I am a licenced nail technician and I feel that when people say that it gives us a bad rep. If you go to an experienced qualified person your nails will not be damaged at all.

Answer 4

i personally like french manicures, but only on square ended acrylics. i dont like fakes and they fall off all the time. acrylics are good if you get them done @ a reputable place. natural nails can pull off bright colors w/ the right outfit. and acrylics will usually hurt a bit the 1st couple days then they are fine.
Hope this helps!!

Answer 5

it depends what look im going for, if im wearing something nice and sophisticated then i would probably go with the french manicure, but if im going to a friends party then i would probably wear some bright color. i get fake nails every once in a while, i got acrylics about a month a go i like to get them sometimes. :]]]

Answer 6

Bright! French gets boring, some people are afraid to experiment.

I love acrylics, but gel nails are best if you're going the fake route. Of course natural is better but I just can't grow mine.

Answer 7

French for sure., Seems more classy to me and goes with everything!

Also, If I didn't have nails that grow like weeds I think i'd go with the Acrylic. They are stronger and easier to fix.

Answer 8

I personally prefer French manicure, but I don't like Acrylics and don't recommend them, because you have to maintain them all the time, you have to get them fill in every 2 weeks or less, if you don't plan on maintaining them, then keep it natural, because if those acrylics don't get fill ins they will look ugly.

Answer 9

depends on my mood but mainly brightly colored. you can just get manicure for your natural nails, but sometimes I like the acrylic.

Answer 10

I couldn't agree more, Sexy Love! I'm a nail tech too, and I hate the comments from all these people who go to discount salons, spend like $20 for a full set, then complain that their nails are ruined, or that they hurt, etc. You get what you pay for. You pay for cheap nails, you get cheap nails.
She is so right - an experienced tech will NOT damage your nails.

Answer 11

dont get acrylic nails
type in "acrylic nail damage"
in google and see what you find
fake nails are too fake lol
too many people can tell
theyre not real
just go natural!
its the healthier way to go =]
especially when u have
nail strengthening polish
underneath or on top
i myself like to go french
the bright style never really
appealed to me. =/
french shows class and
sophistication. plus i am
girl & preppy so it helps
to go french for me.
its also acceptable in school!
but it all depends on ur own taste.
so do whatever suits your
style best. good luck =]
