Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Russian (Gel/Shellac).
The Russian (Gel/Shellac) pedicure uses a dry, electric-file technique to remove cuticles and refine nail edges. It includes professional callus sanding, a collagen leg massage, and gel polish. The result is a cleaner, longer-lasting finish than a standard soak-and-cut pedicure.
When performed by trained technicians, the procedure is generally comfortable. You may feel pressure or vibration from the drill, especially around thick calluses. Communicate any pain immediately so your technician can adjust speed, pressure, or technique for your comfort.
Most Russian (Gel/Shellac) pedicures take about 60 to 90 minutes, depending on callus care, nail condition, and polish choice. Complex nail art or extensive corrective work can extend time. We recommend arriving a few minutes early for consultation and polish removal.
We can accommodate many nail enhancements but recommend removing acrylics or hard gels first for optimal results. If you have medical conditions like diabetes, circulatory issues, or fungal infections, consult your physician and inform us—some services may be contraindicated for safety.
Gel polish from a Russian (Gel/Shellac) pedicure typically lasts two to four weeks, depending on growth, activity level, and aftercare. Keep skin moisturized, avoid harsh chemicals, and wear protective shoes to extend wear. Schedule a refill when visible regrowth appears.
Yes. Le Bijou follows strict sanitation: sterilized or disposable bits, disinfected surfaces, and trained technicians. We perform consultations and patch tests when needed. Because Russian technique removes cuticles, we prioritize hygiene and proper technique to prevent infection and ensure client safety.
