Manicure with BIAB. 
This service includes cuticle tidy with BIAB overlays and a colour of your choice.

Builder in a bottle is used to create a strong overlay and a strengthening barrier for natural nails. It is a great addition to a gel manicure to help you achieve long & healthy natural nails.

Builder in a bottle (BIAB)

Sculpted Hard gel or BIAB extensions.
This method of extensions uses a sculpting form so please ensure you have a couple mms of natural nail growth for the sculpting form to fit underneath.

I recommend BIAB for short extensions only & hard gel for longer lengths.
 If you have any questions, please message me.
