About Mai
Nails by Mai is Mai Truong's own studio. Eight years in busy salons taught her exactly what to keep: careful prep, thin coats, art with steady hands. What she left behind was the queue, the rush and the double-booking.
One client at a time, tea if you want it, and nails that last the full three weeks. Art is quoted per nail before anything starts, and the last appointment of the day never gets rushed.
The studio
Pink where it counts, quiet where it matters. The polish wall is small and personally vetted - if it chips in week one, it doesn't get restocked.
