Tie-Dye Mani from essie

Tie-dye is back and better than ever…at least when its used as a design accent to an otherwise natural nail. A soft pink serves as the base layer, while teal is applied in two lines across the nail and then feathered into the base, creating a tie-dye effect. This hippi-chic mani from essie is perfect for clients looking to jazz up a plain base shade. Michele Saunders, an L.A. based manicurist known for her for A-list celebrity following, breaks it down!
