Prevention Over Correction | Amiri Academy’s Secret to Long Lasting BIAB
When it comes to BIAB nails, one rule stands above the rest / prevention always beats correction.
So often, nail techs find themselves spending precious time fixing lifting, breaks or product flooding, when in reality, most of these issues can be avoided completely with the right prep, application, tools and knowledge.
At Amiri Academy, we believe in teaching our techs how to get it right from the very start, saving you product, time and frustration. While giving your clients flawless, long lasting BIAB nails.

Why Correction Costs More.
Correcting BIAB isn’t just about fixing one nail, it usually means extra filing, extra product, extra time and sometimes, a full re-do.
Time Wasted - more time on one client means less on the next and you don’t want to be known for always running late and falling behind on appointment times.
Product Wasted - every correction eats into your profit margin. The mistakes you make are costs for your business.
Client Trust at Risk - clients who are paying good money, expect good results. They want long lasting, reliable nails to keep coming back to. When they have issues, they remember it (more often clients remember the issues over the good times, making it even more important to nail your BIAB, every time).
Correction doesn’t just cost you money, it can cost you reputation too.
What Prevention Looks Like.
Prevention is all about setting your BIAB work up for success. Here’s what that looks like in practice.
1.Proper Preparation
The foundation matters. Thorough cuticle work, complete dehydration and dust removal make all the difference. If prep is rushed, lifting is inevitable.
2.Correct Technique
BIAB isn’t a '“slap it on” product. Thin, controlled application with the right structure, apex and curing ensures strength and durability.
3.Right Tools + Products
Not all files, brushes and lamps are created equal. Investing in the correct tools (and maintaining them well), eliminates common issues like under-curing or poor shaping. The Amiri Academy offers the course alongside an option to add a kit, these kits are what Amiri Studio has tried and tested for years now, so we know these tools are the best of the best. We highly recommend adding the kit when you enrol.
4.Ongoing Education
Shortcuts lead to correction. Investing in your education and skills helps you avoid bad habits to begin with, refine your skills and keep clients coming back.
The Power of Prevention.
When you prevent problems rather than patching them:
Your BIAB sets last longer
