No fake stars, no padded reviews. Just the work, and where to get it done.
A Russian manicure (also called an e-file manicure) uses an electric file to remove dead skin and cuticles for an ultra-clean finish. It lasts longer than a traditional manicure and is popular in NYC and London.
BIAB (Builder In A Bottle) is a soft-gel nail extension product applied directly to the natural nail. It adds strength and length without acrylics, making it one of the most popular nail treatments in 2025.
