Good to know
Questions about
biab & gel-x nails.
Suitability is personal. Mention any relevant skin, nail, eye or health concern before booking.
What does BIAB mean?
BIAB commonly refers to Builder in a Bottle, a builder-gel system used to add structure to the nail.
Is BIAB on natural nails the same as an extension?
No. The natural-nail option applies builder gel over your existing length. An extension adds length and usually requires more appointment time.
What is the difference between BIAB and Gel-X?
BIAB is a builder-gel system used for structure, while Gel-X uses pre-shaped soft-gel tips for extension length. We can help you select the appropriate booking.
Can BIAB be applied over damaged nails?
Suitability depends on the condition of the nail. Send details before booking and do not cover a painful, infected or worrying nail without appropriate advice.
How do I book removal?
Mention the existing product in your appointment notes. We will confirm whether removal is appropriate and how much time is needed.
