Ah the French! The eternal allure of the pink & white manicure. While it may look deceptively easy, the French mani is anything but, as the experts in our in-depth article on this topic point out.
One of these experts notes that a good French can be one of the hardest free-hand services a nail salon can offer. She makes a valid point as it’s all about a steady hand and clean, crisp and accurately curved smile lines. The thickness of the gel or polish used is another important factor to take into account. All of this being said, it’s essential for nail techs to be proficient in this art, otherwise you will be turning away clients. The French, whether it’s the traditional pink & white, or done in alternative colours, is never ever going to go away.
While nail techs are not medical professionals, they should be able to spot a case of nail fungus when it presents on their clients. Obviously such cases should be referred to a doctor or a podiatrist, but there are treatments and products that can be used to help treat the condition. In this issue we provide some important pointers in this regard, as well as give examples of appropriate products from leading professional brands.
