BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) Course

What is BIAB?

BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) is a strengthening gel system designed to create durable, structured, and natural-looking nails while promoting healthy nail growth.

The treatment includes a full consultation and assessment of the client’s natural nails, lifestyle, nail condition, and desired outcome. The process involves:

• Client consultation and nail assessment

• Nail preparation (cuticle work and shaping)

• Application of BIAB

• Building structure and apex

• Curing

• Refining and shaping

• Finishing (top coat or gel colour application)

BIAB adds strength and structure while maintaining a natural appearance and can be infilled rather than fully removed at every appointment.
