French manicure cost depends on the salon you're visiting and your nail technician’s experience. You can expect French manicures to be priced at ₹800-₹1000 and above.

• Use good quality nail polish. A good quality nail polish will help to create a smooth, even finish.
• Apply thin coats of polish. Thick coats of polish are more likely to chip.
• Allow each coat of polish to dry completely before applying the next coat. This will help to prevent the polish from smearing.
• Use nail guides to create precise tip lines. Nail guides can help you to get a perfect French manicure every time.
