weeks of clean results

With a Russian manicure, the cuticle area is worked more precisely and in greater detail, allowing polish to be applied very close to the cuticle for a cleaner look that lasts significantly longer than a regular manicure.

Step by Step

Six steps to perfect, long-lasting nails.

01Gel Removal

We safely remove any previous gel polish or extensions, keeping your nails healthy and intact.

02Cuticle Care

The cuticle area is cleaned and perfected using a dry technique with specialized tools.

03Nail Shaping

Nails are shaped and buffed to the desired length and form.

04Base Application

A rubber base is applied to strengthen the nails and create a smooth foundation.

05Gel Polish

Layers of gel polish are applied and cured under a UV/LED lamp for a long-lasting, glossy finish.

06Finishing Touches

Any design or top coat is added, and the nails are sealed for durability.

Sterilization

Client safety is one of our top priorities. After each use, all manicure instruments undergo a complete sterilization cycle in an autoclave — ensuring that every treatment is not only beautiful, but also safe.

How the sterilization process works

01

Disinfection

Immediately after the treatment, the instruments are placed in a professional disinfecting solution.

02

Pre-sterilization cleaning

The instruments are thoroughly cleaned to remove dust, product residue, and any other contaminants.

03

Rinsing and drying

After cleaning, the instruments are carefully rinsed and fully dried.

04

Packaging

Each set of instruments is sealed in an individual sterilization pouch.

05

Autoclave sterilization

The instruments are sterilized using steam under high pressure and temperature, ensuring complete elimination of microorganisms.

Why this matters

Autoclave sterilization reflects a high standard of hygiene and reliable protection for every client — ensuring a safe treatment, impeccably clean instruments, and complete confidence in the quality of service.
