Best Nail Salons In San Rafael

“Linda is fantastic! She did a walkin-in nail appointment for me the other day, they look fantastic! Her salon is well-run and she is super friendly!“

“Great manicure, lovely Susan, always pleasant and forthcoming.
Have been coming here for years, will definitely continue with Susan!“

“I love Lovely Nails! They never hurt my cuticles, my nails always look gorgeous and they work incredibly quickly and efficiently.“

“This place was highly recommended to me and I’m so happy I found it. My new go-to boutique nail shop!“

“I have been a customer of No1 Cut for over 20 years. Tina and Lori always do a great job and they are amazing, wonderful people. We need more small family owned businesses like them.“

“Katy,apart from being very friendly, is the best place in San Rafael that I have found in my last 20 years. She dedicates time to the nail polisher and removes them to perfection. Nobody beats the best.“

“Kim and Family are Great, love my Manicure and Pedicure. I Have been coming to this Place for many years. Thank you“

“Anna is wonderful! I’m a massage therapist and need my nails extremely short, buffed, clean and without color. Anna is precise, and the quality of her service is the best I’ve found in my nail experiences in Marin and even SF. She also gives a relaxing hand/forearm massage which I greatly appreciated at no extra charge. I will definitely be back again!“

“Image Nails located is a single unit kiosk located in the Terra Linda neighborhood of San Rafael (near Walgreens). Tina is amazing! I love that she keeps her salon humble and services only single clients at a time. So relaxing and peaceful. Walk-ins welcome. However, appointments preferred. She's great at ensuring your appointment is met and timely. Tina offers only quality service and only quality products. My normal goto style is a pink n white French. However, today, I chose to have Tina choose for me and check it out...Love, love, love my Tap hybrid gel overlay. This product is so light. Feels so natural. And I love the shine. Tina's prices are very fair compared to other salons I've tried for the comparable services. So many salons have had to raise their costs to operate . I have not experienced this with Tina. Relaxing, courteous and amazing skills. Thanks, Tina.“

“Great service. Love my hair! Dogs are allowed if you obtain permission from the salon ahead of time.“

“I have been going to Maya for 10 years. I have moved out of state now, but every time I visit the Bay Area I make sure I include a visit to Maya's salon. Her attention to detail is impeccable. Her studio is relaxing, clean and welcoming. I can't wait to go back to the Bay Area for my next service!“

“Very friendly and did a great job with my son and my pedicures. Strong foot and leg massage too. Will definitely be going back!“

“I really regret forgetting the name of my nail tech, but I came in spontaneously to have my gel removed and she did the best job I've ever seen. My nails have NEVER been this healthy after gel, or really this healthy in a long time regardless. I'd highly recommend this place!“

“Excellent, pro, relaxed service. She was able to really hammer my man-feet into shape.“

“It's a good place and the prices are good and they always close late, they accept walk-ins and everyone is very friendly.“

“I love it here. Mary and Michael are so dear. They care so much about pleasing customers. They take their time and are very detailed. They are very good at their work and take great pride in their shop and service. Such a nice family business for so many years.“

“I had such a great experience with Nancy 1 (yes, there are two Nancys here!) and LyLy. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make sure my nails looked perfect and I felt relaxed.

LyLy’s pedicure skills are next level—she’s meticulous with every little detail, and her massage was honestly one of the best I’ve had. Nancy 1 is warm, friendly, and you can tell she truly cares about each client. My dip manicure turned out beautifully, and she gave an amazing massage as well.

For the quality of service, the prices are more than fair. The appointment went by so quickly, and at checkout, Nancy 1 even reminded me about my stamp card (13th visit is free!) which was such a nice bonus.

I’ll definitely be coming back again and again!“

“I'm amazed. Quick, reasonable, the nail lady grabbed me while I was getting my hair done. An unexpected spa day. I needed this.“

“I had an amazing pedicure here tonight. I work on my feet all day, and tonight I got to go home with happy, baby-soft feet with orange polish! Very professional, nice ladies, and reasonably priced. I will definitely return.“

“Love this new place , we found. Great pedicures! I’ve been getting the gel and they last way beyond time needed for a cut. Great prices and amazing acrylics esp for teens. They keep them short and not flashy. Did beautiful designs on my granddaughter’s!
Great place for special occasions and also my regular pedicure place. Reasonable prices.“

“I highly recommend Joanne's Nails!! She is an amazing nail technician and has such great attention to detail!! The receptionists are friendly and helpful!!“

“I have been going to Polish in San Rafael for many years and have never been disappointed! The couple who run this nail salon are the sweetest, they always fit me into their schedule, and have great suggestions for gel manicure colors or color combinations when I can't decide. I also love that the salon never has the acetone or chemical smell that others have. ? Thank you, Polish!“
