A Russian manicure incorporates an electronic file to remove excess skin surrounding the nail bed instead of traditional water soaking techniques, cuticle nippers and cuticle pushers.
While you might typically reserve 45 minutes at the salon for a traditional manicure, the Russian manicure requires a minimum of an hour and a half to ensure that each step is performed safely and meticulously. During a Russian manicure, the technician uses an electric filer to open up the eponychium to remove the cuticle. This allows the manicurist to go deep into that pocket in order to get the nail polish or gel polish underneath so you manicure is flawless without photoshop that also lasts much longer!
Today it’s one of the most popular manicures requested in all the salons!
