What You’ll Actually Upgrade
This Advanced Russian Manicure program is for techs who already work with gel or e-file prep and want to improve their skills. You should have at least 6 months of salon experience or have completed a basic manicure or e-file course. If you’re new to this, start with our Basic Manicure Course first.
We deep-dive into cuticle pocket opening, lateral fold polishing, apex balance, reverse French, fast & safe product removal, and troubleshooting heat spikes or lifting. You get supervised model work, with constant correction of angles, pressure and brush control so your finish looks flawless, not “almost”.
We’ll also cover how to adapt techniques to thin, damaged or over-filed plates, correct architecture on short nails, and keep speed without sacrificing hygiene or client comfort.
To become a full-cycle nail expert, complement your training with our E-File Pedicure Course – the perfect next step to master both manicure and pedicure services at a professional level.
If you plan to offer full-cycle services, advanced manicure pairs perfectly with sculpting. Continue your upgrade with our Nail Extension Course (Sculpting) - ideal for building strong architecture and mastering express extensions.
