Step By Step Breakdown:
- Prep the nails and shape them into extra-long coffin extensions with straight sidewalls and sharply squared tips.
- Apply a glossy nude-pink base, keeping the nail beds smooth and neutral.
- Map out a deep curved French section using vivid hot pink polish, extending the pink slightly up the sides of each nail.
- Fill the upper portion of the French area with hot pink to create the bold frame visible around the rainbow design.
- Beginning beneath the pink border, paint a thin horizontal red stripe across the nail.
- Continue toward the free edge with evenly spaced orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple stripes.
- Keep each rainbow band thin, straight, and parallel so the striped pattern remains crisp across the squared tips.
- Repeat the same rainbow color order on each nail for a coordinated full-set appearance.
- Refine the hot pink borders and clean any uneven edges with a fine liner brush.
- Finish with a high-gloss top coat to smooth the layered stripes and intensify the bright neon colors.
