1. What Is BIAB and What Will I Learn on the Course?
Our Gel Extensions course covers the essentials of gel extensions, including tips, overlays and BIAB (Builder In A Bottle), a builder gel designed to strengthen and enhance the natural nail while maintaining a lightweight, natural finish.
The course combines theory, demonstrations and hands-on practical training, covering products and equipment, different gel types and lamps, tip application, filing and shaping techniques, gel application, timings and pricing, and troubleshooting. Students will also complete practical sessions on each other and must attend with bare nails. The course finishes with a Q&A session to answer any questions and build confidence in professional gel application.

2. Do I Need Previous Nail Experience to Take a BIAB Course?
One of the most common questions students ask is whether they need previous experience before enrolling. For our BIAB (Builder Gel In A Bottle) Course, a Manicure qualification is required as a prerequisite. This is because a strong foundation in basic nail knowledge and manicure techniques is essential before progressing to gel extension treatments.
For students looking for more comprehensive training, our Complete Nail Tech Course includes BIAB training alongside other essential nail techniques, giving you the opportunity to develop a broader range of professional skills.

4. Can I Offer BIAB Nail Services After Completing the Course?
Learning BIAB can open up exciting opportunities for aspiring nail technicians.
