Gel Polish
The Gel Polish system gives incredibly durable, chip free nails for up to 2 weeks with superior shine and no damage to the natural nail. It is applied like a nail varnish but is a LED cured formula which means the polish is instantly dry so no more waiting around trying to avoid smudged nails. The large range of stunning colours will ensure you find a colour to match your outfit or occasion, and you'll be excited about about your next colour change appointment. Nails are shaped and cuticles neatened prior to the application of Gel Polish. The treatment can be upgraded to include BIAB (builder in a bottle), as well as relaxing hand & arm or foot & leg massages.

Prior to treatment: Your nail treatment will begin with a thorough consultation to assess your specific nail type and needs so that we can treat your nails accordingly. Clients who are suitable may be offered BIAB, which can help give strength to the natural nail and add length, if desired.
BIAB; Sculptured Nails: Forms are laid underneath the natural nails and BIAB sculptured over the top. The forms are removed and nails filed to the clients desired shape and length.
BIAB; Tips with Overlay: Tips are applied to the natural nails in order to achieve the desired length and overlaid with BIAB for added strength, nails are then filed to the clients desired shape and length.
BIAB Rebalance:It is recommended that finger nails are rebalanced every 2 - 3 weeks to ensure they remain looking beautiful, maintain a balanced shape and stay strong. A finger nail rebalance booked after 3 weeks may incur an additional charge due to the additional work required.
