Russian Manicure That Actually Lasts 4 Weeks

Your questions,
answered

• What is Russian manicure and how is it different from a regular manicure?
  A regular manicure pushes back or clips the cuticle. Russian manicure uses precision electric drill bits to remove only the dead tissue around the nail — leaving living skin completely untouched. The result is a visibly cleaner, tighter nail bed and gel that adheres with zero lifting. That's why it lasts up to 4 weeks without chipping. It's the standard used by elite nail professionals across Europe and is the only manicure that discerning clients will accept once they've tried it.
• My gel always lifts after one week. Can you actually fix this?
  Premature lifting almost always comes down to two things: incomplete cuticle removal (gel lifts at the base where dead skin remains) or improper nail prep before application. The Russian technique eliminates both. Ksenia and Anastasia prepare each nail to a clinical standard before any gel is applied. The difference is usually visible by day 3 — and unmistakable by week 3. If you've been disappointed before, we'd invite you to try once. The result speaks for itself.
• Is Russian manicure safe? Does it damage the nail?
  Yes — when performed correctly, Russian manicure is safer than traditional methods because it removes only dead tissue using precision drill bits, leaving the living skin and nail matrix untouched. At View Spa, our team was trained to clinical standards. We do not cut or clip living cuticle. The result is healthier nails over time, not less.
• How are your tools sterilized between clients?
  Every nail instrument is autoclave-sterilized between clients and sealed in individual sterile pouches. We open your set in front of you at the start of each appointment. Surfaces are disinfected with hospital-grade solution before and after every session. Files and buffers are single-use only — disposed of after each client, never reused.
• How long does the appointment take?
  Russian Gel Manicure: approximately 2 hours. Smart Gel Pedicure: approximately 2 hours. Both together: 3.5–4 hours (we recommend booking on separate days for the best experience). Your appointment time is your start time — we are a private studio, so there is no waiting for a station to open.
• Should I book Ksenia or Anastasia?
  Both deliver the same precision Russian technique and the same 4-week standard — that's a non-negotiable at View Spa. The difference is availability and complexity: for highly detailed nail art or the most complex gel builds, Ksenia is ideal. For flawless Russian manicure or Smart Pedicure with excellent availability, Anastasia is a superb choice and typically available sooner.
