Russian Manicure
Knightsbridge
The most precise, long-lasting gel manicure technique — perfected by certified specialists at CH Nail Spa, 2 minutes from Harrods on Beauchamp Place.
What is a Russian Manicure?
Unlike a traditional manicure that uses clippers and pushers, a Russian Manicure uses a precision electric file (e-file) to gently and thoroughly remove dead skin, cuticles, and any dry skin around the nail plate. The result is an immaculate, salon-perfect nail edge that allows gel polish to bond closer to the skin — lasting far longer with minimal lifting.
It's the gold standard for clients who want pristine nails that look freshly done for weeks. At CH Nail Spa in Knightsbridge, our technicians are fully trained and certified in this specialist technique.

Book Your Russian ManicureFrequently Asked Questions
What is a Russian Manicure?
A Russian Manicure (also called an e-file manicure) uses a professional electric file to meticulously remove dry skin and cuticles from around the nail, creating a perfectly clean, longer-lasting base for gel polish. The result is a much cleaner, more precise finish than a traditional manicure.
How long does a Russian Manicure last?
Because the nail plate is so thoroughly prepared, a Russian Manicure with gel polish typically lasts 3–4 weeks with minimal lifting or chipping — significantly longer than a standard gel manicure.
Is a Russian Manicure safe?
Absolutely, when performed by a trained and certified technician. At CH Nail Spa, our specialists are fully trained in Russian Manicure techniques and use professional-grade, sterile equipment on every client.
Does a Russian Manicure hurt?
Not at all. In skilled hands, it is a gentle, comfortable treatment. You may feel a mild warmth from the e-file, but it should never be painful.
