Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Russian Pedicure.

A Russian Pedicure uses dry, instrument-based cuticle and nail work for precise, detailed results. Technicians remove excess skin and refine nail edges rather than heavy soaking, producing cleaner lines and a longer-lasting, professional-looking finish. Pricing starts at $60.

Yes when performed by a trained technician using sanitized tools and proper technique. We assess cuticle condition beforehand; sensitive or thick cuticles can usually be treated gently. Avoid the service if you have active infections, open wounds, or recent foot surgery.

Appointments generally last 45 to 75 minutes depending on nail condition and chosen polish or enhancements. We allow extra time for meticulous cuticle work and detailed finishes; schedule accordingly if you want nail art, gel polish, or additional foot treatments.

Yes. Both regular polish and gel polish are available after the Russian Pedicure. Our precise prep improves adhesion and finish. Gel requires curing under UV/LED lamps and may incur an additional fee; discuss color or art options when booking.

Arrive with clean, polish-free nails and avoid thick lotion before your appointment. Afterward, wear open-toed shoes for an hour and avoid heavy activity. Moisturize daily, keep cuticle oil on hand, and schedule touch-ups every four to six weeks for best results.

Minor redness or sensitivity can occur. Do not book if you have active fungal infections, open sores, severe diabetes complications, circulatory problems, or are on blood-thinning medications—consult your physician first. Our techs perform a thorough assessment to determine service suitability.
