What a BIAB appointment includes

A BIAB set takes around one hour. It starts with a cuticle tidy, file, shaping and buffing, then BIAB is applied for added strength and finished with a glossy gel coat. The result is durable, elegant nails built on your own natural nails.

To keep the look, a BIAB infill is recommended within four weeks of your last set. When you are ready for a change, BIAB is removed safely and professionally rather than picked off.
