I always kept my nails super short out of convenience and habit but love the look of long nails so decided to try and grow mine out and keep them a medium length (long for me!)
Sharing in case this helps: I don’t have an e file. I won’t ever allow one to touch my nails. This means two things – I don’t get very long wear out of my manicures. Because I’m not filing the surface of my nail. And removal requires soaking off.
I was using Onyx 100% acetone to soak off my BIAB manicures. Took forever and basically desiccated my fingertips.
I tried the Cutex ultra caring non-acetone remover, soaking off with nail clips and it only took 10 minutes. Stuff is amazing. 10 minutes. Vs 25 with acetone. And no scraping needed, the entire chunk just swipes away. In case this is helpful.

Nice! They look great on you.
I’ve been enjoying my first foray into BIAB, too.
