What is BIAB?
BIAB stands for “builder in a bottle”, a builder gel brushed on like polish to add strength; many salons use the name for any structured gel manicure.
Can builder gel go on short nails?
Yes. It is often chosen for short natural nails that bend or break, and can be shaped without adding length.
