Like your video. Here's some advice from a nail technician from Belgium. I learned to work with builder gel as follows: you gel 1 nail , for you your 2nd coat, you pop it in the lamp for 10 sec so the gel cannot run anymore. Then you apply 2nd nail. Same story. After 4 nails you pop them all 4 together for 90 sec as you mentionned. At the end of the total application you save some minutes. Hope you can do something with it. Bye bye!

Hi there, I’m loving your videos 😊thanks for making them so clear and easy to follow! I’ve only just discovered biab nails and only done it once on my 💅 which biab gel is the best for a deeper cover please as the one I used was also a bit see through? xx

Do you flash cure upside down if so for how long? Used gbels for the first time today and it ran down towards the end of the nail and was quite opaque 😭 do you also use 2 thick layers to build colour of some colours x

@thenailroombygee

Жыл бұрын

Hey gal! I only flash cure upside down if I’m using a tip extension. Some colours are more opaque than others, that’s why I love cookie cream as the pigmentation is perfect! Try putting the builder in a cold bit of water this thickens it up and makes it easier to apply! Xxx

Hi! I just want to say I absolutely love your videos. Its very informative. With that being said, I'm an acrylic nail tech and would absolutely love to introduce biab to my services. However I've never actually done it, hence the reason why im doing research so I can learn as much as possible. I have a question and i hope you can help me. I saw you prepped your nails and apply dehydrator, however if I were to do this service, can a primer (example mia secret xtrabond) be applied after the dehydrator and then start to add the biab to the nail?
