French Fade or Baby Boomer: A Classic Nail Design
What is a French Fade or Baby Boomer Nail Design?
The French Fade or Baby Boomer is a classic nail design that combines the elegance of a French manicure with the softness of an ombré fade. Unlike a traditional French manicure, which features a crisp white tip, the French Fade has a more natural and subtle transition from white to pink or nude. This gives the nails a delicate and feminine look that is perfect for any occasion.
