“Blackberry Bling” is all about beautifying a client’s dialing digit. Named by celebrity manicurist Dawn Sterling of The Back Room Hand & Foot Spa at Carol’s Daughter in Harlem, N.Y., the trend features a basic manicure in one color and special embellishments or a different shade of polish just on the thumb and/or ring finger. Blackberry Bling is often requested by smart phone owners (hence the “Blackberry” in the name), though iPhone owners are sometimes an exception, as they tend to prefer the accented finger be the index finger instead (better to show off on the touch screen).
