What We Offer
Services Crafted for Discerning Clients
Russian Manicure
Our signature service — a dry, precision technique using a fine e-file to gently remove dead skin and cuticle tissue without water. The result is an immaculate finish that lasts up to 4 weeks longer than traditional methods. Clean, hygienic, and breathtakingly refined.
Gel Extensions & Overlays
Build length and strength with our expertly applied gel extensions or protective overlays. We use premium, flexible gel products that look natural and feel light. Ideal for clients who want flawless nails that can withstand the pace of New York City life.
Nail Art & Custom Design
Express yourself through bespoke nail art — from understated French tips and minimalist linework to intricate hand-painted florals and textured chrome finishes. Our artists collaborate with you to create something entirely your own, tailored to your style and occasion.
Classic Gel Manicure
A timeless gel manicure that delivers a glossy, chip-resistant finish lasting two to three weeks. Includes shaping, cuticle care, base coat, two color coats, and a high-shine topcoat. Perfect for those who want reliable color without the full Russian technique.
Spa Pedicure
A luxurious pedicure experience combining a soothing foot soak, gentle exfoliation, extended massage, and immaculate nail shaping. Finished with your choice of polish or gel color. An indulgent reset for tired feet — perfectly suited to the demands of city living.
Manicure & Pedicure Combo
Our most popular pairing — combine a Russian manicure with a spa pedicure for a full head-to-toe nail experience at a preferential rate. Ideal before a special event, a vacation, or simply when you deserve a complete refresh. Book together and save.

Precision. Craft.
A Studio Born from Passion.
LAV Nails & More opened its doors in the heart of Midtown Manhattan with one uncompromising conviction: that a manicure should be as precise as it is beautiful. Nestled on West 35th Street, steps from Penn Station and the energy of New York City, our studio is a quiet, intentional space where clients come not just for their nails, but for the experience itself.
We specialize in the Russian manicure — a meticulous, dry technique that transforms the nail at its foundation. Unlike traditional methods, it involves no soaking, producing results that are cleaner, longer-lasting, and exceptionally refined. Our technicians have trained extensively in this Eastern European art form and bring years of dedicated practice to every single appointment.
New York City demands the best — and so do our clients. Whether you are a busy professional stopping in between meetings or someone who simply believes their hands deserve the finest care, LAV is your place. We believe in slow, careful work, done right the first time.

“I have been searching for a Russian manicure specialist in Manhattan for years and finally found LAV. The precision is unlike anything I have experienced at a regular nail salon — my cuticles look immaculate and the finish lasted nearly four weeks. This is now my permanent nail studio.”

“Such a calm, professional environment in the middle of Midtown. My technician took her time and paid attention to every single nail. The gel extensions she applied looked completely natural and stayed chip-free through two weeks of back-to-back meetings. I am genuinely impressed.”
