Why the Russian manicure is worth the drive
Rather than soaking your cuticles, we use a fine e-file to gently lift and clean the entire cuticle area by hand — no nicks, no rough edges. Polish is then applied closer to the nail bed, so your grow-out stays invisible longer.

Good to Know
Questions, answered
What is a Russian manicure?
It's a precise, waterless technique that uses a fine e-file to lift and clean the cuticle area by hand rather than soaking it. Polish sits closer to the nail bed, so the finish looks cleaner and grows out more slowly. It's our specialty, and one of the few places in the Heights doing it properly.
Can I get my hair and nails done in the same visit?
Yes — London Heights is a hair and nail studio, so it's easy to book a haircut or color alongside a manicure or pedicure in a single appointment. Just mention both when you book on Fresha or call.
Do you take walk-ins?
We recommend booking ahead through Fresha or by calling or texting (713) 485-0014, since we're a smaller studio and appointment slots fill quickly, especially for the Russian manicure.
What hair products do you use?
We style with Kevin Murphy products for both cuts and color services.
Are you open on Mondays?
No, we're closed Mondays. We're open Tuesday 1–5, Wednesday through Friday 11–7, Saturday 11–5, and Sunday 1–5.
How do I book an appointment?
Book online through Fresha, or call or text (713) 485-0014. We can pair a nail and hair service together if you'd like.
Where are you located?
We're at 6521 N Main St in Houston's Heights / Independence Heights area, easy to reach from the Heights, Near Northside, and greater Houston.
