European Manicure Vs. French Manicure: What's The Difference?

Posted by Tandra Barner on Saturday, May 11, 2024

The European manicure is the more mysterious of the two styles. It can easily get confused with the French manicure because it showcases the beauty of your nails and has a more natural look overall. However, the European manicure beautifies the nails, cuticles, and skin without the use of metal cutters. It also enhances your nail health. 

The European manicure allows the cuticle to remain intact and uses softening techniques to improve the look and feel of the skin around the nails too. Depending on the salon, you might find both wet and dry European manicures available. Some salons also use a special tool to separate any dead areas of the cuticle to allow it to naturally fall off.

Given the gentler nature of a European manicure, it's a perfect solution for those looking to restore the health of their natural nails. In fact, certain salons will even add a light coat of color at the end to give your nails a little sparkle. While the European manicure is a chic look that improves your nail health, the French manicure is all about the look.
