Russian Manicure
for Beginners
The Russian Manicure Upgrade 2 Days Class is for nail techs who already do Russian manicures but feel like their work can be done better. You know the technique, but sometimes the cuticle is not clean enough, the pocket hurts, the sinuses don’t look sharp, or the finish is not as smooth as you want. I’ve been there myself. This is the stage where real growth starts.
This is a one-day intensive with practice on two models. Before class, you can tell me exactly what you struggle with, and I will focus additional attention on those points during your training. Before you sign up, I will review your work to make sure this level is right for you and that you will get maximum benefit from the class.
In this course, I teach you how to stop fighting with the cuticle and start controlling it.
You will learn to:
- Get a truly clean, “photoshopped” cuticle without tearing or redness
- Create a deep, clear pocket without pain
- Control your e-file with confidence: speed, pressure, and angle
- Work with difficult, sticky, or sensitive cuticles
- Clean sinuses without over-filing
- Use nippers correctly so the cuticle cuts, not tears
- Fix rings on fire, damaged corners, and thin points
- Improve structure, leveling, and light reflection
- Make your shapes look sharper and more professional

Russian Pedicure
Class
The Russian Pedicure E-file 2 Days Class is for nail techs who are not confident working on feet, confused about callus removal, or feel like their pedicure never looks truly clean or professional. After 10 years in this industry, I can tell you: the pedicure is not about being aggressive, and it’s not about “scraping everything off.” Rather, it’s about control, understanding skin, and working safely.
In this 2-day class, I teach you how to use the e-file on feet with confidence and skill.
This is where you stop being scared and start understanding how it works.
You will learn to:
- Understand foot anatomy and know where it is safe to work and where to stop
- Control your e-file: speed, pressure, and angle on thicker skin
- Remove calluses cleanly without pain, burning, or over-thinning
- Create smooth heels that look healthy with Podo Disk, not damaged
- Work calmly and confidently instead of rushing
- Do clean cuticle work on toes with no redness or trauma
- Follow a clear step-by-step pedicure system
- Clean gel polish application
- Make your results last longer and grow back softer
- Build trust with your clients because your pedicure feels professional
This class is not about fast spa pedicures.
It is about professional dry pedicure technique with real structure and safety.

Russian Manicure for Beginners 2-3 Days Class a foundational course created for nail techs who want to stop guessing and start working with confidence. This class teaches you how to perform a clean, safe, and professional dry (e-file) manicure using a clear step-by-step system.
You will learn how to truly understand nail anatomy, so you always know where it is safe to work and where to stop. We focus on calm and controlled e-file techniques: correct speed, pressure, angles, and hand positioning. You will learn how to choose the right bits and use them with purpose, not by copying.
Special attention is given to clean cuticle work. You will learn how to lift, open, and remove the dry skin. Your manicure will start to look neat, precise, and professional.
We also focus on preparation and structure, because long-lasting results start before the polish application. You will understand why lifting happens, how to prevent flooding, and how to create a manicure that grows out beautifully. This course is about building strong technique, confidence, and consistency.
This class is perfect for:
- Beginners with little to no experience
- Nail techs who feel insecure and afraid of hurting clients
- Those whose cuticle work looks “almost clean” but never perfect
- Anyone who wants a strong professional foundation
After this course, you will:
- Perform safe and clean Russian (dry / e-file) manicures
- Understand anatomy and work without fear
- Create truly clean cuticles with no trauma
- Control the e-file confidently
- Stop guessing and follow a clear system
- Feel proud and confident in your work.
