What is a Russian manicure?
Unlike the conventional manicure most of us are familiar with, the Russian manicure delves into meticulousness. Originating from Russia, this technique swaps the traditional cuticle clippers for electric drills with various attachments, ensuring every nook and cranny is accounted for.
What is the difference between a gel manicure and a Russian manicure?
While a gel manicure is centered on the type of polish and its lasting finish, a Russian manicure emphasizes meticulous cuticle care and preparation of the nail. They can be combined, however: one could get a Russian manicure to prep the nails and then have a gel polish applied for a long-lasting, polished look.

The technique: precision at its finest
Preparation
Nails are first cleaned and shaped. It's not just about aesthetic; ensuring nails are of even length can prevent future breakages.
Softening
A special cuticle softener is applied, which prepares the nail bed for the detailed work ahead.
Drill Time
Electric drills gently buff away dead skin, clean the nail plate, and polish, leaving nails smooth and ready for polish or gel.
Polishing
With nails perfectly prepped, any polish—nude, French tip, or glitter—looks stunning.
Finishing Touches
A hydrating cuticle oil is applied, ensuring the skin remains nourished and supple, adding the finishing touch to this luxury experience.
Frequently asked questions
Naked Manicure
No, Russian manicures are not extensions
While Russian manicures can be combined with nail extensions, the two are not synonymous. Russian manicure is primarily a technique for natural nail care, while extensions involve adding artificial tips or overlays to the nails
Do you do BIAB?
BIAB (Builder In A Bottle) is a type of builder gel that strengthens and extends your natural nails and is the same as the Gel Manicure treatment we offer
Gel or Hard Gel
Gel is a type of nail enhancement that involves applying a thick layer of hard gel to the nail, which is then shaped and cured under a UV or LED light.
Hard gel manicure is ideal for individuals with weak or brittle nails.
Do Russian manicures last longer?
Russian manicures typically last 3 to 5 weeks, compared to 2 to 3 weeks for traditional gel manicures. This longevity is attributed to the meticulous cuticle work, which allows polish to be applied closer to the cuticle area without lifting.
