A few years ago, a native of Tver, Olesya, won a green card and moved to the United States. A sought-after manicurist in her homeland, she quickly gained popularity and began doing nails for the rich and famous residents of Beverly Hills.
This story sounds like the true American dream! And in fact, it is, and with the participation of stars of the first magnitude in the plot.
Surely you have heard more than once or twice how Russian beauty masters are valued abroad. Olesya proved the veracity of this fact. In 2017, together with her husband, they left for America on a green card. The lovers traveled all over the country and chose California for their future life.
Olesya was immediately able to start making money in a foreign country because Russian masters are really held in high esteem there! At first, the girl received clients in her rented apartment, but then she became quite famous on social networks and after only a year she was able to open her own manicure studio in Los Angeles. For ease of communication with her American clients, Olesya took the pseudonym Lisa Kon. That name is much easier for them to pronounce than her real name!
“Now more and more Russian masters are coming to America, and I think that in the next three to five years our manicure will take its place here. When Americans try it for the first time, then they no longer want to return to local salons. They are ready to pay more because they see the difference, ”Olesya said in an interview.
At some point, Kendall Jenner herself saw Olesya’s work on social networks and invited the Russian woman to her home to get a manicure. The top model tagged the girl’s account in her stories – and then it started…
Now, Olesya’s clients include a huge number of Hollywood stars: Rita Ora, Zendaya, Hailey Bieber, the entire Kardashian-Jenner family, Miranda Kerr, and many others. Touring domestic celebrities, by the way, also come to Olesya’s salon for a manicure. She managed to work with Svetlana Loboda, Vera Brezhneva, Regina Todorenko and Kristina Pimenova.
To be inspired by the work of such a cool manicurist is useful and guaranteed to be beautiful 🙂 Therefore, we have collected 10 interesting nail designs from Olesya’s account that will win your heart.
Metal nails
Yes, yes, it was Olesya who made the very silver manicure with which Zendaya appeared at the Oscars 2022! We especially like how this unusual polish matches the jewelry on the hands.
Red jacket
In past seasons, black and neon jackets came into fashion. Now, judging by the choice of stars, the red border of nails can get into trends. A Russian woman did such a manicure for Kate Moss – also on the eve of the Oscar parties.
Patterns “cat’s eye”
And here is another design for Zendaya from a Russian woman. The colored tip of the nail is a nail trend that has not yet become familiar. And if you add thin lines to it, you get a more spectacular manicure. And less complicated in execution, unlike other nail designs.
Creamy french
The matte jacket is a classic of many years ago. And what if you add a few accent drops to a couple of nails? A boring manicure turns into an elegantly creative one – you want to look at your hands for hours!
Manicure with eyes
The “eye” design won the heart of the author of this material long ago and has been on her nails more than once. Thanks to Olesya, now it’s clear how else you can diversify this idea by adding golden lines to the drawing. It looks discreet, neat, but magical, agree?
Pink clouds
A great option for a quick and easy nail design. Take white and pink polish and make a couple of accents of different shapes along the length. The main charm of such a manicure lies in its individuality. Each time it will turn out a little different!
Wedding geometry
Geometric manicure lovers, you will definitely like this! Usually, such a nail design looks very bright and catchy. But especially for one of the Californians instead, Olesya made a gentle geometric manicure in nude-white tones. It will fit perfectly even in the wedding image!
Gold leaf
Russian women really like manicures with small particles of gilding – in the social networks of domestic masters you can find many ideas for nail design with this component. Olesya, on the other hand, suggests making the gold more catchy by enclosing it in a dark frame. We like it, how about you?
The brutality with an accent
Finally, let’s share a minimalist male nail design. Yes, yes, there are a lot of famous men among the girls’ clients!
Many guys taboo the topic of manicure, as it seems to them too bright and eye-catching. And if you add a tiny accent to just one nail? Universal solution for both genders!
