Whether your natural nails are short or bitten, I use BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) and professional sculpting to give you the perfect shape. My goal is to ensure your set stays for 4 weeks plus, with zero lifting, making sure your hands look as good on day 30 as they did on day one. My process always starts with health. I perform dry Russian manicures to clean the cuticle, which helps the product grip and ensures your manicure lasts much longer than standard salon work. If you have thin, brittle nails, my BIAB structured overlays act as a protective layer, allowing your natural nail to grow underneath without breakage. For those who want length, I use premium MMA-free acrylics and hard gels. My studio in Civil Lines, Ludhiana is where I experiment with everything from 3D hand-sculpted flowers to edgy stiletto designs. I work with you to understand your lifestyle—whether you need durability for daily tasks or something elaborate for a wedding event. My work follows a high standard of safety, using only HEMA-free products because I want your natural nails to stay healthy long after the extensions come off. If you are coming from Chandigarh or nearby, I recommend booking in advance, especially during the wedding season, as my calendar fills up quickly with brides looking for that specific NBI finish. ## About Nails By Ishita Hi, I’m Ishita.
