Frequently Asked Questions

What is BIAB?
BIAB is a builder gel formulated to strengthen natural nails. It creates a light, flexible structure that enhances durability without heavy extensions.
How long will it last?
With proper care, BIAB typically wears for 3 to 4 weeks. Book an infill within that window to maintain strength and shape.
Is removal or infill included?
Removal and infills are not included in this service. Please add a removal or repair as an add-on when booking if needed.
Can I choose tip colour?
Yes. Choose classic white or a soft, sheer shade to suit your skin tone. We will guide you to a balanced, flattering smile line.
Is it safe for weak nails?
Yes. BIAB reinforces thin or peeling nails and supports growth. We assess your nails first and adapt thickness for comfort and strength.
