Successful in Europe, the method promises healthy nails with lasting results
Remove the cuticles, glaze and clean the smudges, this is the order we know when it comes to glazing. But one technique that is gaining prominence on social media is the Russian method. It stands out for its complexity and attention to detail.
According to Olga Radionovaspecialist and one of the partners of Bela Russa (first franchise network of studios specialized in the original Russian method of nail care), there are a number of aspects that differentiate the original Russian method of care, with what we are used to seeing.
WHAT IS THE RUSSIAN METHOD
- cuticle removal
The Russian method uses a microdermabrasion device to remove the cuticle, without any kind of cutting. As a result, there is no stimulation or activation of the immune system that causes the cuticles to grow. The result is a painless procedure that helps reduce cuticle growth with each session.
Olga says it’s important to point out that the manicure with braces is the most advanced solution for natural nail care, since:
- Do not use pliers: the cuticle is removed dry using high precision burs, similar to those used by dentists. They favor microdermabrasion, a sort of exfoliation of the cuticle, without hurting.
- Do not use water: which prevents the spread of viruses and bacteria and the dilation of the tissues that must be clearly visible by the professional when removing the cuticle.
- Does not wear out natural nails: nails are never filed or worn with the justification of improving the adhesion of the materials. On the contrary, in the manicure with braces, the natural nails are preserved so that the latest generation glazes can adhere to the outermost layer of the nails, for which they are made.
- enamelling
A second important point is related to the high-precision enamelling that uses state-of-the-art products, which provide an appearance with an intense shine and much more durable, compared to conventional techniques, which allows flawless nails for a period of 3 to 4 weeks. .
“The enamel is applied with specific techniques, without smearing the finger, so that only the nail receives coverage, giving up the use of chemicals to remove the excess product and, consequently, making the procedure hypoallergenic” adds Olga.
ADVANTAGES OF THE METHOD
In addition to avoiding problems such as allergies or cuts, as an added benefit, the technique strengthens the nails allowing them to grow and reach longer sizes naturally, without the need for artificial extensions, as well as restoring damaged nails (technique that allows recovery only damaged, which avoids the others having to be sacrificed by sanding to match the short length or having to stretch them all using artificial material).
Through the method it is also possible to restore nails that have broken, for example. According to Olga, an artificial material is used, quite similar to natural nails in thickness, color and malleability. “After the recovery – without the need to match the size of the other nails, shortening them – it is normal for women to not even be able to identify which nail has undergone the restoration process. The natural nail, in turn, grows again. strong and the need to use the material becomes superfluous in a short time, depending on the length of the nails “. In case of bitten nails, the restoration is performed to recover the original shape of the nails, protecting them with gel polish.
AND WHAT ARE THE RISKS?
As with any beauty treatment, there are risks involved. For dermatologist Adeline Kikam, as with Russian manicures, the greatest risk is infection. “The proximal nail fold and cuticle play a structural and functional role in protecting the nail plate from which the nail grows and a protective seal around the outer nail to prevent infection,” says Dr. Kikam. “When you push back, cut or cut your cuticles, it is easier for bacteria and other germs to enter your body and cause an infection.”
