French Tips

[Winnie]

Hi,

Please can someone shed some light on this for me. I am currently studying the Essential Nails L&P course. Within the course you learn with natural tips. Is there a difference with French tips? I have been told from a friend that some french tips don't have to be blended, is this right, and if so, would you recommend only offering French tips or both once qualified?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am new to all this.

Thanks

French tips are white and should not be blended only the shine remove. Some clients do not like the look of white tips but do want a pink and white set, which can be done on natural, and clear tips. This is done with white powder for the tip and pink powder for the base.
This style nail is very desirable by clients so you should learn it and all other forms of enhancement in your chosen medium(L&P or Gel or Wraps).
