Nails Number One

I’ve been coming here for 5 years and overtime the service kept getting worse. This time was just unbelievable. Even though I told her what i wanted, she said that it was her job and she knew what she was doing… I told her I understood that but I wanted my nail look like all my other nails. She completely ignored me and starting talking to her coworkers. She was too busy examining my jewelry and asking how much I bought it for, where I got it, got all her other employees to come over and even rolled up my sleeve without my permission! It was a complete invasion of privacy. She started to paint my nails, didn’t allow for them to dry properly and just top coated then walked away. They didn’t even offer to give me a fan to dry my nails! I am beyond stunned at this type of service. Of course, the end result is terrible and the one nail I asked her to shape and fix, looks disgusting. Also, their prices are shit for the quality of service they offer. Don’t waste your money!!!

Nail #1 Salon has gone through a Change of ownership since October. Not necessarily for the good. Even if you make an appt., you may need to wait. People came in, and Left, they couldn’t wait any longer. You will need to ‘Sign’ that you will not hold them responsible for ANYTHING they might do INCORRECT or you might catch. They don’t encourage direction on How you like your Manicure or Pedicure performed. Depending on Who else walks in, you could be shuffled to another person and then another. Many of the Original Manicurists have left. There’s only a couple of the Original people, but ASK for them when you go… Lena is Great.

I thought I finally found my new nail salon! The place had tons of spa chairs which I love and the staff was super nice and took me right away. I received a pedicure and gel manicure. The pedicure was great, the person asked if I was alright and made sure I was comfortable during the experience. The manicure on the other hand was probably one of the worst I’ve had. The person doing the manicure was extremely rough, cut my nails way too short and did not ask if I wanted my nails cut but instead just went for it. The whole experience was tolerable until she cut my finger and put what I am hoping was antibacterial solution to prevent it from bleeding. At this point I still had to sit under the uv light for my manicure and the whole time my finger was on fire. All of my fingers were in so much pain in the days following this experience. The whole thing was about $ 58 plus the tip I left which was generous. I should have said something but I was afraid it would just get worse. I would recommend the pedicure but I can’t recommend the manicure.

Lena and Lily are the sweetest ladies and sisters. As I walked in after watching the Giants lose to KC, they accommodated me right away. New customers receive a 20% discount. Happy hour discount M-​Th 9am-​1pm with complimentary beverages. I found out their cousin Holly is the owner and recently had a baby; therefore, these friendly sisters are running the nail salon. They remodeled back in April, and patrons inside spoke highly of this new space/​transformation.
I enjoyed my gel manicure with a nice hand massage and hot towel to end the night. Their hours are convenient for those of us who work late, closes at 8pm. I will definitely be back during happy hour for more services. You leave here feeling fabulous and worth the $$. Plenty of parking, spacious atmosphere, no hidden fees, and walk-​ins are welcome.

I went here today for the 1^st time. It’s very close to my boyfriend’s house but I usually go to a place a little further north. I got a gel manicure and my nails look wonderful! There are a couple of bad reviews based on cleanliness but I didn’t see any sanitary concerns at all. It was $ 31 for a gel manicure. I go to nail salons all over Marin, SF and San Diego and $ 25 is more typical for a gel manicure at this type of salon. However, I am not the type of person to really care about a $ 6 difference, especially when they did a nice job. I will definitely go back.

Very happy with there quick, clean, relaxing atmosphere and service. lemon in the pedicure water, sanitary measures where taken to my knowledge, helped me with my color picking, great service!
Had to be to work in 30 min they finished on time with style.
I’ve been looking for a nice clean zone for 5 years upon moving here to Marin.
Highly Recommend!!! Will be coming back.

Just went for the first time yesterday but apparently they just got all new equipment. It was the best mani pedi I’ve had in Marin for the last 10 years, and my mom agrees that hers was as well. The people were so attentive, friendly, and skilled, and the other customers were also friendly and talking to one another.
Wish I had found this place sooner but I’ll be going back for every mani pedi in the future!

I went there faithfully for 15 years. The ladies were very sweet. But, I now have to wait to actually get my nails done or brows waxed, where I didn’t have to before. It’s not that busy but I always have to wait to be assisted. Also, it used to take an hour to do my nails. Now they take 2 hours! They always push to get people to get more services, which is really annoying. The reason I completely stopped doing my acrylics and stopped going there was that the newly renovated salon is disgusting. It reminds me of a tacky Las Vegas divey very dated salon. I couldn’t go back. I really miss the sweet, charming, understated salon and attentive staff.

Christine she is the best. I will go back to her. ‚;

We went here only because we were forced. It was a Saturday night and we called at 7:30pm. We had a wedding to go to the next morning (my sis and I-​bridesmaids and the bride). Well, they said they would stay open for us and so we had no choice because everyone else that we called were closed and had already taken their last clients. The prices were astronomical. $ 25 for a daggone fill in! A fill in should only be $ 14 – 16. and I believe we paid $ 28 or $ 30 for a pedicure. They get two stars because they were very personable and extremely nice and welcoming, but my nails started chipping and receding in less than a week. The prices and quality aren’t commensurable!

Generally OK as it seems they’re in the midst of a renovation. I was spoiled by salons in sf, especially the prices. Mani/​pedi was fine, nothing exceptional.
I downgraded them on service because the clinician kept answering the business phone while doing my bikini waxing and even left the room twice to take messages. So inappropriate in my book!

Took my grandmother here for a mani. A-​ok experience! The manicurist was friendly, gentle and gave grandma a nice little manicure. I noticed a woman who got a pedicure while I was there, and her nail art was really cute… Like a zebra design on the big toe and fire hot pink on the rest. Super cute on her. They cleaned the pedi bowl right after she left. Over all a good experience for grandma. I will return for my own mani/​pedi after seeing the care they took of her, and bring grandma back for her own little pamper day, too.

The staff is very friendly and welcoming, however, the facility is completely outdated. It’s just plain dirty. I heard them mention they were going to remodel, and I hope that’s really on the agenda. The nail service was sub-​par. The lady doing my manicure hurt my fingers a few times stabbing the tools under my nails. My pedicurist was very friendly and did a nice job. I didn’t see them sanitize anything while I was there… beware! Don’t fall for convenience!

This is my favorite place in the bay area to get a pedicure… they do a great job & are very professional & nice…5 stars!

Love the tender living care to my feet and hands… great girls… Friendly girls… great prices

This place is horrible. I went here to get a shellac manicure and the service was less than friendly and the lady who worked on my nails was very rude. She was so rough with my nails and actually scraped skin off of one of my fingers! I told her twice that she was hurting my hands and asked for another person, and she stormed off without apologizing and said in Vietnamese to her co-​worker that I was being so sensitive. Little did she know, I speak and understand Vietnamese! I would not recommend this place.

I’ve been coming here for the last 3 years, bout twice a month & was very happy. It was hard finding a shop I was happy with, after moving from SF & leaving my very good nail shop of years behind. However, this place did it. Unfortunately, they began dropping the ball in a lot of areas & both shop & service are suffering. It’s not at all what they used to be. Biggest issue for me is hygiene. Bummer, I really liked it here, convenient location for me, but currently looking for a new place :(They do have some good workers but its hit & miss, but Holy does do great eyebrows!

I generally don’t get my nails done often just on special occasions, but this place has me hooked.
I’ve gotten the gel manicure twice now and I already love it. It lasts for the promised 2 – 3 weeks and the tips never chip! They have an abundance of colors so I can freely choose whatever color I fancy.
The staff are very friendly and professional, some will engage small talk like Holly while others won’t. But that’s fine with me, I like to just chill out and not be forced to make light conversation.
All in all it’s a great place to just get your nails done after a stressful week at work. Affordable, efficient, and great quality. What more can a girl ask for?

They are wonderful. Everyone takes the time to say, «Hi» and «Have a nice day.» I get Gels so I’m particular about bumps and thickness. I’m always pleased. They are a hard working group.

best place to go to get your nails done, favourite place for years! Until yesterday, when I wanted to go get my eye brows done before holidays. They have a new lady doing waxing, and she did good job minus the fact she took skin off of my face with the eye brows. I am sporting nice red skin burn mark cross whole upper eye arch for holidays! woohoo … I guess thanks got I have a dermatologist appointment for tomorrow for another reason, but I have more reasons to go there now! hah!
Anyways, I was always very happy to go there, now I am sure anymore.
