Self-Care's take
Why book
this room.
About U Nails and Beauty Studio is a Gladstone Street Russian manicure suite, also listed for dry Russian pedicure, brows, lashes and makeup, with medical-grade autoclave sterilisation on the official page. Named chairs include Julia, Tanya, Tatiana, Daria and Valery, and live Fresha guests sit at 5.0 from 895 reviews. Official hours skip Monday while Fresha prints a Monday open and a shorter weekend, so confirm Monday before you travel. Deposits apply, and late changes inside 24 hours forfeit them. This is a precision Russian-manicure room for guests who want hard gel and hygiene theatre, not a Clarendon Street walk-in polish bar. Book the named Fresha venue at the Gladstone suite, not a city nail index, and ask which technician you want if you already have a favourite. Parking is nearby and a tram stop is listed about five minutes away.

Russian manicureNails
Russian manicure is the signature, with hard gel and autoclave hygiene in official notes. Fresha guests name Julia, Tanya and Daria on gel work. Book the named technician. This is precision cuticle work, not a ten-minute regular polish. Ask whether you are new to the method so they can time the first set. Sit still for the cuticle work. This is the opposite of a scrolling-through-your-phone express bar.
$PedicureNails
Dry Russian pedicure sits beside the manicure menu. Official copy does not list design with regular polish on the pedicure line, so ask if you want art. This is not a Voesh spa pedicure house. Book it as its own slot if you are stacking hands and feet.
$Nail designNails
Nail design is on the services list as its own craft, not a free extra on every set. Say chrome, art or a quiet colour so the chair time matches. Precision rooms fill. Do not assume a walk-in design hour on Saturday.
$BrowsNails
Brows sit with lashes and makeup on the Gladstone suite menu. Fresha notes name Valery on brows. Ask whether you want a tidy, tint or a fuller brow brief. This is not J-Beauty's cosmetic-tattoo studio on City Road.
$Lash liftNails
Lash lift is listed with the beauty add-ons, not as a volume-extension house. Ask whether you are combining it with a manicure so the booking is long enough. Skip it if you wanted a classic or volume full set at Maris on Clarendon.
$The craft
What this room
actually owns.
About U's craft is Russian manicure with medical-grade autoclave sterilisation on the official page, plus dry Russian pedicure, brows, lashes and makeup. Named chairs include Julia, Tanya, Tatiana, Daria and Valery. Live Fresha guests sit at 5.0 from 895 reviews. This is a precision hard-gel room, not a Clarendon Street walk-in polish bar. Deposits apply, and late changes inside 24 hours forfeit them. Book the named Gladstone suite. Ask which technician you want. Skip it if you needed a seven-day 8pm lash bar on Clarendon.
First visit
How the hour
should go.
Book the named Fresha venue at 102/87 Gladstone Street, or use the official site. Phone 0468 045 555. Official hours skip Monday while Fresha prints a Monday open and a shorter weekend, so confirm Monday before you travel. Deposits apply. Cancel with more than 24 hours notice. Ask for Julia, Tanya, Daria or Valery if you already have a favourite. Say Russian manicure versus dry pedicure versus brows so the slot is timed. This is not a walk-in Clarendon polish bar. Bring the gel history on your nails if another salon put the last set on, because Russian prep does not love surprises.
The street
Why this place,
on this street.
Studio 102 (Level 1), 87 Gladstone Street
South Melbourne VIC 3205
Studio 102 (Level 1) at 87 Gladstone Street is a shared industrial edge, still South Melbourne 3205, not the Clarendon nail cluster at 265, 319 or 320. Parking is nearby and a tram stop is listed about five minutes away. Come for the Russian-manicure suite. Do not come because a city Fresha index used a generic South Melbourne nail title without the Gladstone number. This is not Queen Nails, Nail Xpert or Maris. Frika Hair Boutique at 341 Clarendon Street is a different South Melbourne door, not this glass. Walk into the wrong number and you will be in Cleopatra Hair and Beauty at 337 Clarendon Street is a different South Melbourne door.
