Russian Manicure FAQs
Unlike traditional manicures, which soak your cuticles in warm water before trimming or pushing them back, a Russian manicure uses an electric file or drill to precision-clean your cuticles and remove any extra cuticle from beneath your nail bed. They are sometimes referred to as ‘dry’ manicures. Some people believe Russian manicures are shinier and longer-lasting.
Expect to pay anything from ZAR 10 to ZAR 580 for a Russian manicure in Observatory.
You’ll need to set a decent amount of time aside for a Russian manicure: it can take 1½-4 hours to complete because of the intricacy of the cuticle work.
The cuticle protects the nail root, which is why the American Academy of Dermatology does not recommend pushing or cutting cuticles. Doing so makes it easier for bacteria to infect your nails and skin. Russian manicures are invasive, cutting the cuticle; and this makes them controversial. If you do opt for a Russian manicure, make sure it’s carried out by a certified, experienced technician.
Once every 3-4 weeks.
Depending on how quickly your nails grow, your Russian manicure is likely to last between 3-4 weeks.

The Russian manicure is famed for its neat and clean finish. Instead of soaking techniques, the Russian manicure uses an electronic file to whisk away dead skin with gentle care around your cuticle.
That means polish can be painted on from base to tip, without lifted edges. So your nail colour should last longer since it's built onto solid foundations. Set aside between 15 minutes and 1 hour 30 minutes for an e-file manicure, and expect to pay around ZAR 350 on average in Observatory.
