Service inclusions and method
This Signature Russian Manicure is a meticulous dry manicure emphasizing detailed cuticle care and a refined finish. The appointment includes removal of previous gel when present, precise cuticle preparation using the Russian manicure technique, shaping of the natural nails, and application of one solid color chosen by you for a clean, polished result.
Because the method is dry, the technician avoids soaking fingers and uses focused instrument work to tidy the cuticle area and create a crisp border. That approach supports a visually neat edge between nail plate and skin and prepares the nail for a single solid color application without added length.
How the final shape forms
Shaping is determined by your natural nail, desired look, and lifestyle. The technician consults on length and edge profile before filing to balance aesthetics with practical needs for active Scottsdale and Phoenix routines—commuters, hikers, and golfers often prefer lower-profile shapes that minimize catching while still looking polished.
Cuticle preparation is central to the Russian approach: excess tissue is carefully removed so the nail border reads clean and precise. In Phoenix's hot, dry climate, cuticles can behave differently, so technicians adjust pressure and technique to avoid overworking the skin while still achieving the tidy, refined finish clients expect.

Your appointment is scheduled for 105 MINUTES and the service fee is $105. During that time the technician will remove existing gel if needed, perform detailed dry cuticle preparation using the Russian technique, shape the natural nails, and finish with one solid color application so each nail receives careful attention.
