Had BIAB nails by Katie. She’s done such an amazing job, can highly recommend, thanks Katie!

Libby is always amazing and does my nails perfectly everytime and does the most amazing designs on me. Would highly recommend.

Had a French polish on my toes for a wedding I was attending. Dionne was fantastic so friendly and did an amazing job of my nails. Never had gel polish before as normally do my own nails but would definitely have them done again.

Recently started getting biab nails done here, been excellent so far. Friendly welcoming staff and good price. Have also had a massage, eyebrows down and eyelashes.

Really pleased with my BIAB nails with Rebecca great service good result on time what more can you ask for

Libby was fab- BIAB nails look great thank you!! ⭐️

I had BIAB nails done at Heaven Therapy Beauty Salon. I couldn’t be happier with the results! The nail technician was so skilled and took the time to explain the benefits of BIAB, especially how it helps strengthen natural nails. My nails look absolutely gorgeous and feel much stronger than before....The salon itself is so relaxing and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. I’ve received so many compliments on my nails, and they’ve stayed perfect for weeks without chipping. I’ll definitely be coming back for my next appointment. Highly recommend Heaven Therapy for BIAB treatments! read more

Great job removing an old BIAB manicure and then a fresh BIAB manicure in a professional and relaxing enviroment. Lovely job on the new manicure, very neat and good cuticle work and a good selection of base colours and alternative gel colours. Thanks Rebeccca!

BIAB FAQs
What is BIAB?
«BIAB, or Builder in a Bottle, is a strengthening gel that’s applied to your natural nails to help them grow stronger and longer. It provides the strength of acrylic nails with the flexibility and natural look of gel polish.
How is BIAB different from regular gel polish?
«While regular gel polish adds colour and shine, BIAB adds structure and strength. It helps reinforce weak or brittle nails and can be worn alone or with gel polish on top for colour.
How long does BIAB last?
«BIAB typically lasts around 3 to 4 weeks, depending on your nail growth and how well you care for them between appointments.
Can BIAB damage my natural nails?
«Correct application, maintenance and removal are important for protecting your natural nails. We recommend having BIAB professionally maintained or removed and avoiding picking or peeling the product from your nails.
What’s the difference between BIAB and acrylic nails?
«Acrylic nails are created with a liquid and powder mix that hardens on the nail, while BIAB is a gel formula that’s cured under a lamp. BIAB is lighter, more flexible, and less damaging to the natural nail.
Is BIAB suitable for weak or short nails?
«Yes. BIAB is a popular choice for weak, brittle or short nails because it adds structure and support to the natural nail, helping protect against everyday breaking and peeling as the nails grow.
Can I have BIAB with nail extensions?
«BIAB is usually used on natural nails, but it can also be used as a base layer under short extensions or overlays for extra strength.
How is BIAB removed?
«BIAB is soaked off using acetone wraps by a trained nail technician. It’s important not to peel or pick it off, as this can damage your nails.
Can I have colour or nail art with BIAB?
«Yes! BIAB can be worn on its own for a natural, nude finish or topped with gel polish and nail art for a customised look.
How often should I get BIAB infills?
«We recommend booking infills every 3 to 4 weeks to maintain the strength and appearance of your nails and to keep them looking fresh and healthy.
Are HEMA-free BIAB nails available?
«Yes. We offer HEMA-free BIAB options for clients with sensitivities or those who prefer an alternative formulation. During your appointment, your nail technician will discuss your nail history, any previous reactions to nail products, and recommend the most suitable BIAB system for your nails. If you're unsure whether HEMA-free BIAB is right for you, we're always happy to offer advice before your treatment.
