If you are searching for a nail salon in Hackney and cannot decide between BIAB and gel nails, this quick guide will help.
What is BIAB?
BIAB is a builder gel applied to the natural nail to add strength and support. It is ideal for growing and protecting weak nails.
What is a gel manicure?
A gel manicure uses gel polish cured under a lamp for a glossy, chip-resistant finish. It works well for strong natural nails.
Which lasts longer?
Both can last 2-3 weeks with good aftercare. BIAB can feel stronger and may help reduce breakage.
Aftercare for longer wear
- Wear gloves for cleaning.
- Use cuticle oil daily.
- Book removal and reapplication professionally.
