“Naked” manicure - experts talked about a new nail trend
Don't let the name fool you - "Naked" manicure. Nothing really needs to be exposed, except perhaps individual fragments of the nail plate. This manicure was called one of the most interesting new nail trends. At its core is a well-forgotten old, a classic for all time - French.
French appeared almost three decades ago, but to this day does not lose relevance. However, the designers were able to supplement, think through and make improvements to the usual French. So a new trend appeared, which, according to stylists, is great for both summer and the coming autumn.
“Naked” manicure is a fashionable type of nail art, which consists in creating a clear geometric pattern with colored varnishes. But varnish is not the entire nail plate, but only part of it. This is the story of ORLY brand founder Jeff Pink.
To make such an image is not difficult. There are two main ways. In the first case, a layer of transparent varnish is initially applied to the nail plate, and only then the master can experiment with colored geometric patterns. This is done with a thin brush. In the second case, a special masking tape stencil is used.
It is attached to the nail plate, outlining the canvas of the future pattern, and then the nail is painted on top of the stencil in the usual way. The stencil is removed. If the first method without a skilled master with good artistic inclinations is difficult to perform, then the second is quite accessible to everyone, not only in salons, but also at home.
Stylists call "naked" manicure. negative space. And it is clearly visible French manicure trendsinvented by Jeff Pink. By the way, this happened by accident. Jeff was asked for a little favor by a stylist friend who worked in Hollywood on images of movie heroes and movie heroines.
The stylist needed to come up with a nail cover that could easily be adapted to any female look, because during the filming of different scenes, the actresses had to repaint their nails several times to match the characters. This required a significant amount of time. Universal manicure would solve this problem. And I decided. French manicure is loved by everyone and became one of the most successful nail threads in history.
It will be difficult to predict whether the current modified version will have the same long life. “Naked” manicure cannot be called universal, and it’s unlikely that you can apply it to any image. Such a manicure perfectly decorate and complement the image of the ladies, gathered for a friendly party, on vacation, working in the field of culture and mass entertainment, for sports, active and mobile people who are not supporters of a strict style of clothing.
