The two services generating the most consistent client demand in Ireland right now are gel polish and BIAB. If you build your starter kit around those two and nothing else, you have a full working service menu.
To remove gel nail paint, you need to file off the top coat, soak your nails in acetone, and gently push the softened gel away with a cuticle pusher. What most guides skip is why so many people end up with thin, weak, or peeling nails afterwards, and it almost never comes down to the gel itself.
BIAB lasts three to four weeks with professional application and consistent aftercare. That is the answer you came here for. But that range tells you almost nothing about why your last set lifted at ten days or why your client's holds perfectly for a month, and the difference between those two outcomes comes down to specific things that most nail technicians know and most clients are never told.
The fastest way to make at-home gel nails last longer is to fix your prep and your product system, in that order. Most guides stop at prep. Prep matters. But it's not the whole problem.
Builder gel that lifts early almost always fails at prep, curing, or product compatibility. Not the gel itself. Every nail technician knows those three areas matter. What this guide covers is the specific part of each one that gets skipped, and why skipping it costs you the result even when everything else is right.
