Black Nail Polish vs. French Manicure

[teenvan60]

Im a french manicure addict, I rarely have anything but a french, but now im seeing the black color come in, I think it looks pretty cool.

I just want some opinions.....for example does black look better on short or long nails? Too bold of a color???

lol i always do either one..have been since i was like 12...and i tink they both luk good as long as ur nails r not too long or round..square is the best..short or long for black...and long for manicure..well i say:tongue:

Black nails def look better on short nails. Long black nails look so dragonlady! :pinch:

Oh ya, black definitely looks better on short nails. Well, not too short but not long nails. I like the dark nail look since its winter time n gloomy. Although I love french manicures. Looks good with anything and for everything.

I love them both. I've always been addicted to french manicures too! I've even learned how to do them myself :wink: and i've gotten pretty good at it. I think black looks pretty cool too. I'm thinking about trying it out sometime because i've always thought it was too bold. But definitely you should have not too short not too long nails if you're getting black. If you're getting a french manicure then long square nails look better. :sideways:

o0o0o i've done that,it looks so nice. especially when i add on white flower nail stickers.

black has to be done on SHORT nails. i find it gross on long nails.

i love dark purplish black
my friend got her nails painted pure black and then on the top she had purple & white "ribbons" or lines paited at the corner with some crystals..so gorgeous!

I've had my nails done French mani style and then short with black polish. I'd say both are fun but express different looks. Right now I'm so into the black polish look.
