RUSSIAN MANICURE WITH STRUCTURED BUILDER GEL
Russian Manicure, also known as European Manicure or Dry Manicure, involves the use of an electric file and high quality diamond bits to safely, effectively, and comfortably exfoliate and reduce excess skin and cuticle surrounding the nail plate to achieve a clean and flawless finish.
​
Combine with Structured Builder Gel, this complete nail service provides you with an absolutely beautiful manicure.
Once you try this manicure, you’ll never want your nails done any other way.
​
This technique requires time, patience, and precision in order to properly exfoliate the cuticles and craft a natural-looking layer of structured gel that mimics the arch and shape of your nails.
Our appointments typically span from 1.5 to 2 hours.
Benefits of a
Russian Manicure
This highly skilled technique allows the nail technician to paint extremely close and tight around the cuticle line. The beautifully finished look allows you to go longer in between services since the "grow out" won't look so severe over time.
​
All manicure services use implements that have gone through autoclave sterilization, preventing the spread of bacterial, fungus, viruses, and blood borne pathogens.
Benefits of Structured Builder Gel
It is NOT a dip.
It is NOT an acrylic.
It is NOT a soak-off gel polish.
​
It IS a soft, flexible gel that is placed over the natural nails and it can be used to create length, thickness, or added strength and durability to the nail.
NO SOAKING IN ACETONE!
Soaking in acetone every 2-4 weeks is very dehydrating for the natural nails and makes them dry and brittle.
Structured builder gels are not soaked off when you come in for your followup service, rather it is thinned and smoothed out with the use of an electric file and carbide bits.
A new, thin layer of builder gel is then added to "fill in" the growth at the base of your nails.
We then apply color gel polish of your choice or clear gel polish over the top and...
Voila! Durable, long lasting, chip resistant, structured nails that last 3-4 weeks.
