French Manicure For 2024

Nails by Emma has created this vibrant, summery design featuring mismatched pastel shades and negative space that is absolutely beautiful – ideal for summer!

As seen on Kendall Jenner, trendy French manicures will become increasingly prevalent in 2024. Think ’70s swirls and graphic lines with touches of glitter for an edgy chic aesthetic.

Green Frenchies

Green nail polish is a timeless winter trend, and this sophisticated take on the French manicure features contrast. Boasting dark green polish over white base color with subtle gold chrome lines for an eye-catching and striking finish.

Top manicurists Julia Diogo (known for painting Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Zendaya’s nails) and Harriet Westmoreland both agree that autumn French tips are one of the biggest trends this season. Choose either long almond nails or shorter squoval micro ones in rich cafe colors like deep merlot, forest green, or cappuccino brown to complete your look!

If you love 3D nail art, try mixing up designs on each nail for an eye-catching yet playful effect. In this manicure, for instance, smiling faces, cow prints and even trendy ice cream drips all make appearances on green nails – giving the design an eye-catching yet elegant touch!

Blue Frenchies

Blue polishes are currently trending, so why not modernize your French manicure with an ombre design or add an edge with chevron tips that add just the right touch of edge to any look.

Fall colors call for grassy green hues, and this micro-French manicure takes the earthy hue one step further with unexpected angled tips that will instantly elevate your nail game.

Contrary to other trend-oriented nail looks (i.e. Tomato Girl nails), Frenchie manicures will remain fashionable in 2024–if not forever! For everyday style or special events, opt for matte finishes; glossy sets are reserved for special events and formal events only. Want something a bit extra? Add custom art like croc prints or aura designs for an enhanced Frenchie.

Sparkly Frenchies

Are You Searching for an Eye-Catching French Manicure This Year? Add sparkle with glitter! Adding shimmery accents to the corner of your nails elevates this timeless nail art trend and instantly elevates any ensemble.

TikTok stars like Hailey Bieber often opt for glitter French manicures as an easy and luxurious way to dress up their nails for special events or simply add extra shine and shimmer. Bryony Howell’s black take on this trend is elegant while Harriet Westmoreland’s smoky purple ombre French nails channel all kinds of Barbie-esque vibes.

Opaque polish in the tips is another effective way to refresh the classic French manicure for 2024. Nail artist Christina Louise’s latte nails combine two major trends (French fade and gradient) for a unique style.

Velvet Frenchies

Velvet nails are the latest luxe trend we’re loving this year – taking standard nail looks one step further with their fuzzy texture but without being uncomfortable for daily wearers like regular gel polish.

Metallic shades remain fashionable, but now with velvet shimmer that provides an extra soft, plushy touch – ideal when adding just a hint of extra without going all-out with patterns or designs.

Rosy pink velvet finishes add an air of coquette that makes this bold shade seem more grown-up.

Rainbow Frenchies

At Pride Month, a rainbow French manicure is an easy and fashionable way to show your support of LGBTQ communities. This versatile look features alternating French tips in each hue of the rainbow; making it easy to customize to reflect your personal taste while being suitable for nails of all lengths and shapes.

Checkerboard patterns offer another exciting and colorful way to show the rainbow colors. Alternating the shades of your French tips in either an ordered or random checkerboard pattern creates this eye-catching style, ideal for adding chic yet trendy style to any ensemble.

A more sophisticated take on the rainbow French manicure can include metallic hues like red, gold, shimmering orange, green, reflective blue and violet that catch light beautifully and add a splash of glam – perfect for special events or evening events!
