Our Russian Manicure Includes
You’ll be delighted visiting us for a stunning Russian manicure! We strive to exceed your expectations in every detail of this remarkably neat and exquisite manicure style. Discover what’s included in our Russian manicure at Larisa’s salon.
1. Russian Manicure Consultation
We’ll start with a consultation discussing your desired nail color, nail length and nail shape. After a careful analysis of your current nails and condition, our nail technician will give recommendations, and assist you in your nail goals!
2. Nail Cleaning and Polish Removal
We’ll start with using gentle acetone to remove any old nail polish, and tools to remove any nail elements and embellishments. This will start our foundation in creating seamless strokes and finishes.
3. Russian Dry Manicure Technique
With a dry manicure, we’ll be able to get more accurate and close to your nails resulting in precise cuticle work. To start, our technicians will use cuticle softener and a professional nail drill to lift and clean the cuticle area. Afterwards, we’ll use an e-file to remove excess cuticle on the nail plate resulting in a clean-polished nailbed.
4. Nail Shaping and Filing
Our technician will then go ahead and cut the nail based on your desired length and shape. From there, we’ll use a nail file to create a seamless shape from stiletto to coffin, or almond to square. We’ll also buff the nail plate to remove ridges for a clean foundation.
5. Russian Nail Polish Application
A base coat is first applied to protect the nails. Then, two coats of your desired nail color is applied to create a vibrant nail application close to the cuticle for a seamless application. If more polish coats are needed, we’ll go ahead and apply more. Finally, a top coat is lastly applied to achieve long-lasting results and prevents chipping of nails.
6. Nail Curing and Drying
After application, we’ll use a UV or LED lamp depending on type of polish to dry/cure the nails. This helps fasten the drying process and ensures the nails are fully set/smudge-free.
7. Russian Manicure Final Touches
Enjoy your new and fresh Russian manicure! Our technicians will examine your nails one final time, make sure they are to your desired liking, and finally add cuticle oil/lotion to your hands to prevent dryness and nourish the nails.
