Nail Services
At Acqua Salon and Spa, we specialize in Russian Manicures, an advanced technique known for its precision, cleanliness, and flawless results. Using an electric file, we carefully clean and shape the nail bed, remove cuticles, and create a smooth, polished finish. This meticulous process promotes healthier nails, delivers longer-lasting results, and provides a refined look that stands out from traditional manicures.
Our Gel Russian Manicures, also sometimes known as Structured Manicures, take nail care to the next level with the use of rubber base gels and hard gels. These gels reinforce and protect the natural nails, adding strength and durability while preventing chipping and lifting. The result is a flawless, long-lasting manicure that prioritizes both beauty and nail health.

Russian Manicure & Pedicure FAQs
-
A Russian manicure is an advanced nail care technique known for its precision and attention to detail. It involves using an electric file to carefully clean and shape the nail bed, removing cuticles and any excess skin around the nails. This method creates a smooth, flawless finish with a refined look that lasts longer than traditional manicures. The process promotes healthier nails by gently working around the nail bed and cuticles, providing a more polished, natural appearance. Russian manicures are perfect for those seeking a high-quality, long-lasting nail treatment.

The main difference between our Classic Russian Manicure and our Gel Russian Manicure lies in the type of finish and strength provided.
Classic Russian Manicure: Includes detailed nail shaping, cuticle cleaning, and a regular polish application. Our Classic Russian Manicure offers a polished, refined look, but regular polish may require more frequent touch-ups as it can chip or fade more quickly.
Gel Russian Manicure: Includes detailed nail shaping, cuticle cleaning, and the added benefit of a base gel that strengthens nails, and allows them to grow long and strong. The base gel provides a durable, long-lasting finish that resists chipping and lasts for weeks, making it perfect for those looking for strength and extended wear.

A Russian or "dry" pedicure involves using an e-file to carefully shape, file, trim, and clean the cuticles without soaking the feet in water. The technique is precise, promoting healthy nails. Additionally, a podo disc—a one-time use smart disc—is used to buff and exfoliate the heels and soles, leaving the feet soft and smooth.

Here are a few of the many benefits of a Russian Manicure & Pedicure:
Precision and Detail: The use of an e-file and various bits allows for precise shaping, filing, trimming, and cleaning of cuticles, resulting in cleaner and more defined nails.
Longer-Lasting Results: The careful attention to cuticle care and nail shaping promotes healthier nails and longer-lasting manicures and pedicures.
No Soaking: Since the process is done without soaking the nails in water, it helps maintain the integrity of the nails and prevents softening, which can lead to damage.
Exfoliation: The addition of the podo disc provides deep exfoliation, particularly for the heels and soles, leaving feet smooth and rejuvenated.
Hygienic: The use of sterilized & disposable tools ensures a clean and hygienic experience.
What Makes Our Manicures & Pedicures Different:
Our Russian manicures and pedicures are different because we emphasize precision and attention to detail in every step of the process. We use a dry technique with an e-file and various bits to carefully shape, file, trim, and clean the cuticles, ensuring a clean and defined look. Our focus is on creating a flawless, long-lasting result while maintaining the natural integrity of the nails. We also take sanitation seriously by thoroughly sterilizing all tools, so every treatment is both safe and hygienic, offering an elevated experience for our clients.
