           •  White Tips: It is characterized by the application of white polish or light colored polish on the tips of the
              nails. The goal is to create a contrast between the natural or light base and the white tip.
           •  Nail Shape: Nails are often shaped square or slightly rounded for a classic French manicure/pedicure.
           •  Versatility: French manicure/pedicures are versatile and suitable for a variety of occasions from everyday
              wear to formal events. They complement a wide range of dresses and styles.
           Contraindications for French pedicure:
           •   Fungal Infection: If a person has a fungal infection on the toenails or surrounding skin, it is advisable
               to avoid any pedicure until the infection is treated and completely healed. Performing a pedicure in the
               presence of a fungal infection can potentially spread the infection or worsen the condition.

           •   Open wounds or cuts: People who have open wounds, cuts or sores on their feet should avoid getting
               pedicures. The pedicure tools and procedure themselves can bring in bacteria, increasing the risk of
               infection.

           •   Ingrown toenails: People who have pain or discomfort around the toenails due to ingrown toenails or any
               other condition should avoid pedicures until the problem is resolved. Pedicure procedures may aggravate
               the problem or cause further irritation.
           •   Circulatory problems: Individuals with poor circulation or vascular disorders, such as peripheral artery
               disease (PAD) or diabetes, should exercise caution with pedicures. In these cases, there is a higher risk
               of infection and complications from cuts or injuries.
           •   Diabetes: People with diabetes should be cautious with pedicures due to poor wound healing and the risk
               of infection. It is advisable to consult a health care professional before any pedicure treatment.
           •   Allergies or sensitivities: Some individuals may be allergic to certain nail polish ingredients or other
               products used during a pedicure. It is important to inform the nail technician of any known allergies or
               sensitivities.
           •   Immunocompromised conditions: Individuals with weakened immune systems due to medical conditions
               or medications may be more susceptible to infection. Extra precautions should be taken to ensure a sterile
               and safe environment.
           •   Pregnancy:  While it is generally  safe to get a pedicure  during  pregnancy, some individuals  may be
               sensitive to certain chemicals found in nail products. It is advisable to use well-ventilated areas to avoid
               contact with potentially harmful substances and to inform the technician about pregnancy.
           •   Recent foot surgery: Individuals who have had recent foot surgery or have surgical wounds should avoid
               pedicures until they have received clearance from their healthcare provider.
