35 Spring French Nails That Are Fun and Cheery

French nails are equally classic and versatile. That's what makes them the perfect anchor for a refreshing spring manicure.

"I love French nails. They look great on most lengths and shapes and help with the appearance of grow-out when using a milky or sheer base color," says celebrity manicurist Brittney Boyce. "There are so many cool color options for spring—anything in a bright pastel will look good."

Ahead of your next nail appointment, peruse the following 35 stunning spring French nails.

Cherry French

It's the perfect time to rock a cherry manicure as we near cherry season. This look features a pink tip with red gems serving as the cherries.

A classic French tip is the perfect edition to a more involved nail design. This one features a blend of strawberries and daisies.

Gem French

Spice up your classic French for spring with the addition of gems. “Adding a small embellishment helps change up a traditional French tip nail look and makes it modern,” says Boyce.
