Russian manicure technique at Rich Angel Salon

The Russian manicure

Developed in Russia and now the most sought-after nail technique in the world. Unlike traditional manicures, it uses a precision e-file to perfectly prepare the cuticle — the result is cleaner, longer-lasting, and far more refined.

01
Lasts 4–6 weeks Nearly double the lifespan of a standard gel manicure — less frequent fill-ins, more value.
02
E-file precision technique A professional electric file removes dead skin with surgical precision — no cutting, no nicks, no damage.
03
Zero lifting guarantee Thorough preparation means the gel bonds perfectly to the nail, eliminating the peeling that ruins other manicures.

Sasha · Founder & Lead Artist

Beauty crafted with purpose

I founded Rich Angel Salon in Santa Monica with one goal: to bring the precision and artistry of European nail culture to the West Coast. Growing up with the Russian manicure technique, I saw how transformative truly skilled nail work could be — not just cosmetically, but in how it makes you feel.

With over 15 years of experience and a team of hand-selected specialists, we offer a sanctuary where every detail matters — from the quality of our gels to the tea and champagne we serve while you're in the chair.

We're proud to be an LGBTQ+ welcoming space where every client is treated like the queen they are.

"I honestly don't trust anyone else with a manicure. The Russian mani and Russian pedi last at least 4 weeks, usually longer. I can't even pick a favourite nail artist."

How long does a Russian manicure last compared to regular gel? +
Russian manicures typically last 4–6 weeks, nearly double a standard gel manicure (2–3 weeks). The precision e-file technique removes dead skin so thoroughly that the gel bonds directly to the nail plate with zero lifting. Most clients come in for fills once a month rather than every two weeks.
Do you accept walk-ins? +
We welcome walk-ins based on availability. However, we strongly recommend booking online in advance — especially on weekends — as our artists' schedules fill up quickly. Booking ensures you get your preferred artist and time slot.
What's included in the gel pedicure? +
Our gel pedicure includes a relaxing foot soak, callus removal, nail shaping and cleaning, cuticle care, a hydrating massage, and long-lasting gel polish application. Callus removal is always included — no hidden extras. The 24k Gold Spa Pedicure additionally includes a gold mask and extended massage.
How long do lash extensions typically last? +
Lash extensions last 4–6 weeks on average, depending on your natural lash growth cycle and aftercare routine. We recommend a fill every 3–4 weeks to keep them looking full. Avoid oil-based products near the eye area and don't rub your eyes — this significantly extends their lifespan.
What should I do before my appointment? +
For nail appointments, arrive with clean, polish-free nails if possible. For pedicures, skip the leg lotion that day. For lash appointments, arrive with clean, makeup-free lashes. Don't curl your lashes on the day of your lash lift. Arrive 5 minutes early so we can get started right on time.
Is Rich Angel Salon LGBTQ+ friendly? +
Absolutely and always. Rich Angel is a welcoming, judgment-free space for everyone. We believe beauty belongs to all people, and every single client deserves to feel safe, celebrated, and beautiful here. All are welcome.
