Stacey on LC wears ombre nails, a white pearl shading into pink at the tips. Does this take an airbrush at the salon or can it be done at home?

When I had my nails done 3 weeks ago, "dip powder," one of the nail techs had ombre nails and I asked her if they now offered ombre nails at the salon. She said yes and that it costs the same as "dip powder" nails at $36. She had just moved over in my direction to fetch the huge chains of color samples, but did have to return to her client, so wasn't able to ask her how it's done.
I'm weary of nail polish in any form, even if it's applied with an airbrush and then given a good clear coat after, as I'm hard on my nails. Last time decided to forego the dip powder only and had one layer of dip powder followed by gel polish. The gel polish colors are outstanding, but it started to "drop off" of my nails in chunks that very same day. Though I had many compliments on the deep red I had chosen, I'll not be choosing that again.
Am going back to the nail salon next week and plan to ask about their ombre technique. Thanks for bringing ombre up today.
