I Had A Ukrainian Manicure & I’ll Never Look Back

Earlier this year, TikTok went wild for the Russian manicure, a dry manicure that involves very precise cuticle work, typically enlisting a nail drill to remove dead skin. This allows the nail technician to paint nail polish under the cuticle, which makes the manicure last a little longer. Then, we were influenced to try the Italian manicure, a method that leaves the edge of each nail free from polish to create the illusion of elongated nails. Now, if TikTok is anything to go by, it’s the Ukrainian gel manicure that’s making waves in salons.
