I came across US Nails after having two poor experiences at Hawaiian Nails about 5 years ago and I've been a regular ever since! Linda and Mai are good-hearted and hard working people who are passionate about their business. I usually see Linda for a gel manicure- she is punctual and very diligent. Since it's just Linda and Mai, I appreciate the quiet space and find it calming with the piano music that plays in the background. I also love all the gel colors! I don't live in Novato anymore, though when I plan to visit I also make an appointment. That's how much I love Linda and Mai :)
