Nail Extensions
Nail extensions are the perfect solution for adding length, strength, and elegance to your natural nails. Whether you prefer a classic, understated look or something more bold and creative, our expert technicians will create a set of nails tailored to your style.
Using professional products and techniques, we carefully sculpt and shape your extensions to achieve a flawless finish that looks natural and feels comfortable. Nail extensions are ideal for those with shorter nails, nail biters, or anyone wanting to achieve a longer, more uniform look.
We take great care in preparing the natural nail to ensure strong adhesion and long-lasting results. Your extensions can be customised in terms of length, shape, and finish, from soft, natural tones to high-gloss glamour.
With proper maintenance and regular infills, nail extensions can keep your hands looking polished and elegant for weeks. Our team will also provide expert aftercare advice to help maintain the health of your natural nails.
Gel Polish
Gel polish is a popular choice for those looking for a long-lasting, chip-resistant finish with a beautiful high-gloss shine. Perfect for both hands and feet, gel polish offers durability without compromising on style.
Applied like a traditional polish but cured under a specialised lamp, gel polish dries instantly and can last up to two to three weeks without chipping or peeling. This makes it ideal for busy lifestyles, holidays, or special occasions.
At Karma Holywood, we offer a wide range of shades, from timeless neutrals to bold, vibrant colours, ensuring there’s something for everyone. Our therapists take care to prepare the nails properly, ensuring smooth application and long-lasting results.
Removal is carried out professionally to protect the health of your natural nails. Whether you’re after a simple, elegant look or something more eye-catching, gel polish provides a flawless finish that lasts.
BIAB Nails
BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) nails are a revolutionary treatment designed to strengthen and protect your natural nails while promoting healthy growth. Ideal for those with weak, brittle, or damaged nails, BIAB provides a durable yet flexible overlay.
This treatment acts as a strengthening barrier, helping your natural nails grow longer without breaking. It can be worn alone for a natural, glossy finish or used as a base for gel polish.
BIAB is particularly popular with clients who want to move away from extensions but still desire strong, well-maintained nails. The formula is designed to be kinder to the natural nail while still delivering long-lasting results.
Our skilled technicians will shape and apply the BIAB with precision, ensuring a smooth, even finish that enhances the natural beauty of your nails. With regular maintenance, BIAB can transform the condition of your nails over time.
IBX Nail Repair
IBX Nail Repair is an advanced system designed to restore and strengthen damaged nails. Whether your nails have been weakened by extensions, trauma, or everyday wear and tear, this treatment works to rebuild and protect them.
The IBX system penetrates the nail plate, creating a strong, supportive layer that reinforces the natural nail from within. This helps prevent splitting, peeling, and breakage, allowing your nails to grow stronger and healthier over time.
It is an excellent option for clients recovering from nail damage or those who struggle to maintain strong natural nails. The treatment can be used alone or alongside other nail services for enhanced results.
We customise each IBX treatment to suit your nail condition, ensuring optimal results. With continued use, you’ll notice a visible improvement in the strength, resilience, and overall appearance of your nails.

How long does gel polish last?
«Gel polish typically lasts 2–3 weeks without chipping, making it a great option for long-lasting, low-maintenance nails. The longevity can vary depending on your lifestyle, nail condition, and aftercare routine. To extend the life of your gel polish, we recommend wearing gloves when doing manual chores.
What is BIAB and who is it suitable for?
«BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) is a strengthening gel designed to protect and support your natural nails while encouraging healthy growth. It is ideal for clients with weak, brittle, or damaged nails, as well as those who want to grow their natural nails without using extensions. With regular maintenance, BIAB can significantly improve nail condition over time.
Will nail extensions damage my natural nails?
«When applied, maintained, and removed correctly by one of our trained professionals, nail extensions should not damage your natural nails. Damage is usually caused by improper removal or picking at the nails between appointments. Following aftercare advice and booking regular infills will help keep both your extensions and natural nails in excellent condition.
How often should I get a manicure or pedicure?
«We recommend booking a manicure or pedicure every 2–4 weeks to keep your nails looking neat and well-maintained. Regular treatments also help improve nail health and keep the skin on your hands and feet soft and hydrated. Your therapist can advise on the best schedule based on your individual needs.
What is a medi manicure?
«A medi manicure is an advanced treatment that combines traditional nail care with technologies such as IPL and Nd YAG to improve the overall condition of the skin and nails. It is particularly beneficial for targeting concerns such as pigmentation, ageing skin, or uneven tone on the hands. This treatment goes beyond aesthetics, focusing on long-term skin health as well as nail care.
Can you repair damaged nails?
«Yes, at Karma Beauty Salon we can effectively treat damaged nails with systems like UBX Nail Repair, which work to strengthen and restore the natural nail. This treatment penetrates the nail plate to reinforce it from within, reducing breakage and peeling. With consistent treatments and proper care, you can achieve stronger, healthier nails over time.
Can you treat cracked and hard skin on the feet?
«Yes we can! Footlogix medical pedicures use clinically proven, medical-grade products to treat specific foot concerns such as dry skin, cracked heels, and calluses. Unlike standard pedicures, they focus on improving the health of your feet as well as their appearance. This makes them an excellent choice for clients needing more targeted, results-driven foot care.
Can I have gel polish on my toes?
«Yes, gel polish is an excellent choice for toenails as it provides a durable, chip-resistant finish that can last several weeks. It is particularly popular for holidays or special occasions when you want your nails to stay perfect for longer. Regular maintenance will help keep your toes looking fresh and well-groomed.
How should I look after my nails?
«To keep your nails in great condition between visits, it’s important to use cuticle oil daily and keep your hands and feet well moisturised. Avoid picking or peeling polish, as this can damage the nail surface. Wearing gloves during cleaning or manual work will also help protect your nails and prolong your treatment results.
Are these treatments suitable for everyone?
«Most hand and foot treatments are suitable for a wide range of clients, but a consultation is always recommended to ensure the best option for your needs. Certain conditions or sensitivities may require a tailored approach or alternative treatment. Our experienced technicians will guide you to ensure safe, effective, and personalised results.
