Frequently Asked Questions

What is the coquette nail trend?

Coquette is the fashion aesthetic centered on hyper-feminine details - bows, ribbons, pearls, and soft pastels. Bow nails are its most popular expression.

Are bow nails childish?

Not when styled right. Richer color stories like the burgundy crystal bow or refined single-accent placements read sophisticated rather than girlish.

How do I make bow nails look grown-up?

Choose deeper bases (burgundy, black, navy), crystal or matte finishes over cartoon-style bows, and limit the motif to accent nails for the most mature look.
