Get answers to common questions about Russian Manicure.
Appointments typically take 60 to 75 minutes, depending on nail condition and chosen nail art. Detailed cuticle work and gel polish application require extra time to ensure precision and long-lasting results.
When performed by a trained technician using sanitized instruments, a Russian Manicure is safe for most natural nails. It minimizes cuticle overgrowth without aggressive cutting. Avoid service if you have active infections or open wounds.
Arrive with bare or lightly polished nails and avoid applying heavy lotion before service. Bring reference photos if you want specific shapes or colors, and inform your technician of allergies or recent nail treatments.
Gel polish typically lasts two to three weeks with proper care. Longevity depends on nail growth, daily activities, and aftercare. Avoid harsh chemicals, wear gloves for chores, and schedule fills to maintain the finish.
The Russian technique focuses on detailed cuticle work for natural nails, but many technicians can incorporate extensions if requested. Expect additional time and charges; consult your technician so they can adapt the process safely.
Apply cuticle oil daily, keep hands moisturized, and wear gloves for cleaning or gardening. Avoid picking or peeling polish and schedule touch-ups before lifting occurs. Proper aftercare preserves nail health and the gel finish.
