From Beginner to BIAB Pro – Get Certified Without Leaving Home

Have you ever wanted beautiful, strong nails without paying salon prices? Or maybe you’ve thought about doing nails professionally, but didn’t know where to begin?

That’s exactly where I started—not a clue, no experience, just a love for clean, glossy nails. Then I discovered BIAB Online Course, signed up for an online course, and honestly… it changed everything.

Let me tell you how you can do the same.

What Is BIAB, Really?

BIAB stands for Builder In A Bottle. It's a gel-based product that strengthens your natural nails, helps them grow, and gives a smooth, polished look. The best part? It's applied like gel polish but wears more like acrylic. It’s perfect for people who want long-lasting nails without damage.

People love it because it:

• Lasts longer than regular gel polish

• Helps prevent nail breakage

• Gives that soft, natural "clean girl" nail look

Once I tried it, I couldn’t go back to basic polish. And when I learned how to apply it myself? Game-changer.

Why Online BIAB Courses Are Worth It

I didn’t have time to go to a beauty school or sit in a class every weekend. So, I looked into online learning—and I’m so glad I did.

With online training, you can learn:

• In your own time

• From your own space

• Without pressure or deadlines

The best part? You can replay videos as many times as you need. I messed up more than once in the beginning, but I could go back, rewatch, and improve. No awkward classroom moments—just progress at my pace.

What You’ll Actually Learn

The course I took didn’t assume I knew anything—and that made all the difference. It started with the basics like hygiene, nail prep, and how to avoid common mistakes. Then it moved on to more detailed BIAB techniques like building structure, smoothing the surface, and even fixing lifting issues.

By the end, I knew how to:

• Prep nails the right way

• Apply BIAB evenly

• Shape and cure nails with a lamp

• Do infills and removals safely

And yes—I got a certificate that I now proudly show when new clients ask.

What You Need to Start (It's Not a Lot)

You don’t need to spend a fortune. I began with a simple setup: a BIAB bottle, a base and top coat, a small UV lamp, and some files and buffers. Over time, I added more tools—but you definitely don’t need everything on day one.

Some courses even send a starter kit, which is super helpful if you're starting from scratch.

How I Went From Nervous to Confident

Living in Waterford, I never thought I'd be doing nails for others. I was just someone who loved a tidy manicure. But once I started practicing on myself, and then on my sister (who was very patient!), my skills grew fast.

Within weeks, I had people asking where I got my nails done—and that’s when I realised, I had done them. It gave me confidence and a way to earn extra money doing something I enjoy.
