    Default red vs french

    Ok ladies, whats your opinion?

    For my acrylic nails I always go w/ a french manicure....and matching toes. But with xmas, do you guys go with red?

    Many guys always comment on how they "love" how my nails look with the french...so I'm debating...is it worth it to spend a few extra bucks and go with red?

    I guess it's not really that important, but was just curious on what everyone does :p
    I'd grab my trumpet and I'd do a stripper sound, like the old Louis Armstrong, real raspy. And the people would go nuts! Then I knew that the sexual, sensual, guttural sound, that throbbing sound, is where it's at.

    Go red and put a silly santa or wreath sticker on it.

    Why can't you just use red nail polish over your french tips when you feel like having red nails?

    Why don't you do red chevron tips? or red base with white glittery chevron tips? Add some foil strips along the line of demarcation and a little rhinestone at the point and voila! festive christmasy nails!

    I woud just get the french - the kind that's pink and white acrylic, no painted on - and then paint them red. You can remove the red paint and put a new clear coat over it whenever you want.

    I just got mine done, mine are french tips, but I have a red glitter line across the bottom of the white tips. It's cute Maybe something like that, still simple.

    Guys like french nails AND red nails too! but maybe this is just for you. I have been a manicurist for a bookoo million years. I always wear chrome nail polish.
    Do what ever you feel like doing for your self, but it would be interesting to see if any of your regs would notice! If I do anything different, they notice. I like the idea of red toes and french manicure. Let us know what you get! Happy holla!

    I did silver for the hollerdays, since I do red year round. I like red for the hollerdays though! Maybe with a nice gold stripe or somesuch....


    Or! Stay with the french and add a red bow, painted on?

    I always get French (white tips), cuz I don't always get my fills on time, and its less obvious/tacky than grown out brightly colored nails.

    I agree with the other gals, a French w/a nice festive design would be pretty.

    I always do pink and whites with matching toes. I'm boring I guess but they go with everything and look classy.

    Always pink and whites for me. You don't have to worry about them chipping and they always look great. I've gotten millions more compliments with them than any painted or designed manicures ever.
