BIAB (plain)

New to nail care? BIAB (builder-in-a-bottle) is a great choice if you're looking to grow or strengthen your natural nails. It’s a special gel that’s a bit thicker and stronger than regular gel polish, giving your nails extra support without needing extensions.

During this treatment, your nails will be shaped, your cuticles tidied, and BIAB gel applied for a smooth, long-lasting finish. It’s perfect if your nails tend to break or peel easily.

BIAB lasts around 3-4weeks and helps your nails stay strong and healthy in between appointments.

If this is your first appointment, please come with bare nails or book a removal if needed. This service doesn't include any nail art - those can be added separately.

Note: Please book this service even if you are looking for flexigel base.

Gel Polish (Only) 

Gel extensions are the ideal choice if you're looking to add length fast! Sitting on top of your natural nails, extensions give your nails extra support to grow underneath until you get to your desired natural length. 

During this treatment, your nails will be shaped, your cuticles tidied, and gel extension tips applied for a smooth, long-lasting finish. After we will add your base colour, if you would like any nail art - those can be added separately.

Gel extensions lasts around 3-4weeks and helps your nails stay strong and healthy in between appointments.

If this is your first appointment, please come with bare nails or book a removal if needed. 


Gel Extensions + Colour 

Gel nail polish is typically removed by gently filing the top coat, then soaking the nails in acetone using cotton pads and foil wraps for 10–15 minutes. After soaking, the softened gel is carefully pushed off with a cuticle pusher, followed by light buffing, a tidy up of your cuticles and cuticle oil to keep the nail plate hydrated.
