What are baby French nails?
Baby French Nails: “Baby French nails have often been referred to as ‘micro French’ nails in years past,” explains celebrity manicurist Stephanie Stone, whose A-list roster includes Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish and Hailey Bieber. Essentially, as founder and CEO of PLA Beauty Michelle Nguyen puts it, “Baby French nails are similar to standard French nails, but the strip of white (or any other other color) is much, much thinner.”
“The great thing about baby French nails is how versatile they are,” says Nguyen. “You can really use any color or shape with this style. White is always a classic, but you can also spice things up with vibrant neons or rich jewel tones. Feel free to also play with nail shape; anything that works with a regular French manicure will also look great with baby French nails.”
How are baby French nails different?
Baby French Nails: “While the traditional French tip is often painted to give a stark sheer pink to white contrast in its lining, baby French is painted with ‘barely there’ intention,” says Stone. “A baby French tip can be so subtle in its application, you might not even notice it without looking up close.” Nguyen adds that “Baby French nails can look a little more chic, sophisticated, and subtle due to how thin they are.”
