A standard manicure uses water soaking, a cuticle pusher and nippers to manage cuticles by hand. A Russian manicure uses an electric file (e-file) to remove the cuticle dry and with greater precision, resulting in a cleaner finish where gel or colour sits flush to the skin with minimal lifting at the edges. Russian manicures require a more skilled, trained technician and typically last longer than a standard gel manicure.
