Key Takeaways
- After the world went wild for Hailey Bieber’s perfect French-tipped chrome manicure, her nail artist shared exactly how it came to be.
- Zola Ganzorigt described the manicure as “iconic glazed donut nails with [a] little twist.”
While copying Hailey Bieber’s manicure isn’t a rare line item on my to-do list, it’s not always the easiest task to check off. In all fairness, she has an expert nail artist, Zola Ganzorigt, by her side to get the job done. I can try my best to match pace, but without the right products in your kit it’s easy to get lost in whatever glazed wonderland the duo has created.
For her most recent manicure, Bieber showed off a perfect French-tipped chrome design that was reminiscent of the glazed donut manicure she made famous back in 2022. And guess what? It’s our lucky day, because Ganzorigt shared exactly how she made it happen.

How to Get Hailey Bieber’s Chrome French Manicure
Bieber first showed off the manicure on a night out in Los Angeles after announcing e.l.f.’s billion dollar acquisition of her beauty brand, Rhode. The circumstances made the design even more special—both Rhode and the original glazed donut mani shot to fame around the same time.
“Billion dollar baby,” wrote Ganzorigt in an Instagram post showing off the style. “We had to bring in our iconic glazed donut nails with [a] little twist.”
The twist was that French tip, which the artist painted with one coat of OPI’s soft white Funny Bunny Nail Lacquer. Then, she mixed Funny Bunny with top coat and painted on another coat “to sheer out the color.”
The last step was some buffed-on OPI Tin Man Can Chrome Powder. (Obviously. It’s the glazed nail go-to.)

If you’re really trying to copy Miss Bieber, it’s important to know her nail habits. A rounded almond shape is a must, and your manicure can last for one to two Instagram photo dumps before fans start begging for something fresh.

Pair it with a gigantic diamond ring from a pop star, or keep a Peptide Lip Tint clutched if you don’t have one available.
