Frequently Asked Questions
What is BIAB and why choose an infill?
BIAB is a builder gel that strengthens and protects natural nails. An infill fills regrowth and rebalances structure, maintaining length and strength without a full removal.
Can you infill over acrylic or hard gel?
No, we do not infill BIAB over acrylic or hard gel. We can safely remove other products first, then rebuild with BIAB if suitable.
How often should I book infills?
Most clients return every 2–3 weeks, depending on growth and lifestyle. Regular maintenance keeps the overlay balanced and reduces the risk of lifting.
Will BIAB strengthen weak nails?
Yes. BIAB adds structure and support while allowing nails to grow. Consistent infills and good aftercare improve durability over time.
Does the price include gel colour?
Yes, a single gel colour is included in this service. Nail art or complex designs may require extra time and an add-on.
