Russian Manicure & Gel Nails in Mission Viejo: 2026 Price Guide

Not all manicures are the same technique. Here is what each one at Hello Bailey actually involves, what it costs in Mission Viejo, and which to choose.

Gel manicure — $45

The everyday standard: careful prep, cuticle care, and chip-resistant gel polish cured under LED for a glossy finish that lasts 2-3 weeks. Gentle, damage-free gel removal is available if you arrive wearing an old set.

Gel-X nail extensions — $65

Lightweight full-cover soft-gel extensions with custom length and shape — added length without drilling or acrylic. Gel-X soaks off cleanly, making it one of the most nail-friendly extension systems available.

Russian manicure — $85

The precision option. A Russian (dry) manicure uses an e-file instead of soaking to lift and remove cuticle in fine detail, letting polish sit closer to the nail fold — an exceptionally clean result that lasts noticeably longer. It takes more time and skill, which is reflected in the price.

Which manicure should you choose?

Choose gel for a quick, polished everyday look; Gel-X when you want length; Russian when you care about immaculate detail and maximum wear time. All three use meticulous, hygiene-first technique in a calm studio — not a rushed nail-bar line.
