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.

Yes, many technicians trained in Russian manicure technique also offer Russian pedicures, applying the same precision e-file approach to toenails and feet. Browse and book Russian pedicure specialists near you.

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.

A Russian manicure with gel polish typically lasts 3–5 weeks, longer than a standard gel manicure, because the product is applied closer to the nail plate with less risk of lifting at the edges. Results vary based on your nail growth rate, daily activities and aftercare. Avoiding prolonged water exposure and using cuticle oil daily helps extend the wear.

A Russian manicure typically costs between MX$250 and MX$350, depending on the technician's experience, your location and whether builder gel or gel polish is included. The higher price compared to a regular manicure reflects the skill level, training and time required. Fresha shows upfront pricing for every service before you book.
