French smile
Traditionally, a smile is painted on with varnish, gel polish or paint using a thin brush. Its various variations affect the final result of the design. A smile can be deep or shallow, incomplete or sideways. It is also drawn on the free edge of the nail plate or from the side of the hole (that is, at the root).
The smile line can be slanted, wavy or zigzag. An ombre-style smile is popular, when a clear line smoothly transitions into the main color. Some nail artists also draw a double smile line, which looks very unusual.
About geometry
In 2021-2022, geometry on nails will be a very interesting and bright trend. Laconicism and restraint are fully manifested in this manicure. This nail design allows you to experiment with clear lines of different thicknesses and depict different shapes.

Red
For those who are no longer satisfied with the classic version of French manicure, a red French manicure is an excellent solution. Instead of the usual white color, you can use all shades of red: from bright red to dark coral.
It looks more advantageous on medium-length nails. It is suitable for owners with almond-shaped, oval or square-shaped nails.
About ombre and matte
We can safely say that this type of manicure is taken from natural landscapes. Each person has repeatedly looked at the sunset or sunrise. Such types always cause delight because they combine unusual color transitions. Manicure professionals in different directions embody this phenomenon on the nails.
We use technology taken from nature
Combinations of red and pink, the transition from yellow to green, and others will be popular in 2021-2022. If you want to create such a design yourself, then first you should practice on paper, and only then do it on your nails.
French lay-out
This manicure is not new in the world of nail art. A laid-out French manicure is the basis of this type of manicure. Its design consists of extending the free edge for those clients who have long dreamed of a French manicure, but do not have nails long enough to perform it.
The master will prepare them for extensions, determine the ideal shape, model them and give them an aesthetically attractive look. The tip of the nail is painted in any color at the request of the client.
With an image
Very often you can see a French jacket with a pattern. Romantic people prefer flowers or hearts to decorate a standard French design. This design is most often chosen as a wedding design. Various ornaments, geometric shapes and lines, images of silhouettes of people, animal faces, etc. also look interesting.
Back
Reverse French (aka anti-French) looks harmonious at any length. The only caveat is that it looks unfavorable on short and thick fingers, because it will visually shorten them even more.
The reverse one differs from the classic one in the location of the contrast zone, that is, the smile line is drawn from the root of the nail. The shades chosen are identical to the classic French manicure.
But some craftsmen perform this design in brighter shades. The combination of classic and reverse designs on one hand also looks win-win.
