Gel manicure by Ly
Catherine L.

Got a gel manicure by Ly and Tam (the owner). Was able to make a same day appointment and be seated shortly after arriving. They have a huge variety of colors to choose from, I chose DND 301. I asked for a square round shape and got exactly what I wanted. The salon is very spacious and clean. Ly gave me a hand massage after as well. Tam, the owner is super friendly and makes you feel like family. Highly recommend Passion Nail & Spa!

I love this place. They are all kind. It's super clean and they do an amazing job! If you live French manicures like me, ask for Nick. He's so good

After going here for the past 3 years, I don't think I'm going back. I picked a color which the lady said it does not look like the sample. But she said she could make it look like it by mixing the color with another. After she tried it, I said no that looks pink, but she insisted it was not pink. I left with pink nails, I had to ask her to stop and not finish the manicure. They still charged me full price for it.

After going to this salon every 2 weeks for almost 4 years, we stopped coming about 7 months ago because my daughter went away to college. Now that she's back for Summer, we decided to get our nails done. We were shocked to see that the salon was u see new ownership as we loved Leigh, Vivian and all the ladies here. The atmosphere has changed and the quality of their work has also. We only saw 2 familiar faces during our visit today. Both of us got gel manicures and regular pedicures. Although the women doing our nails were nice, the workmanship is lacking, to put it nicely. We will not be back here ever again. To pay $160 and have our nails look like we did them ourselves, inconsistent polish coverage that is lumpy / bumpy and as much dry skin on our toes as when we got there.... No thanks. I'll save my money or go somewhere else.

Flat apex shaping - dips down in middle which is a sign of uneven dip application. Asked them to fix, but they were not able to.

This spot is alright, but not what I was hoping for. I used to like it, but it sounds like they have new ownership. They do dip manicures which is pretty rare for Marin, so that's a plus. The apex of the nail (when you look sideways at it) was poorly done, and despite mentioning it several times they weren't able to correct it. The nails dip down in the middle which is a bad look. For $60 you could get significantly better quality in SF. Got these for my bachelorette and was disappointed with shaping :(

Passion is the only place I go to in San Rafael. I'll keep going there for as long as they'll take me! Great service.

I was so happy to find the Passion Nail & Spa salon. The owner and employees are very skillful and kind and the salon feels clean and inviting. The pedicure chairs are in good condition - much better than most nail salons. The selection of nail polish and gel nail polish is generous and well-maintained. The prices are very fair and the regular pedicure includes a foot paraffin treatment - I have never found that elsewhere. They are willing to accommodate walk-ins, but it might be better to call ahead. Please plan to tip in cash, as this is their request. Finally - I am ALWAYS pleased with the results. :)

See all

Ask the Community - Passion Nail & Spa

Does this salon remove gel polish with the soaking method or a polishing drill bit? I find that polishing the polish off is friendlier and less drying on the nailbed when done gently and properly.

Both just ask them to do it with the dremal. They will accommodate you. Enjoy

Who is your favorite nail technician? Good pleasant energy and attention to details are so important to me.

For pedicures 100% Vivian. She takes her time, isn't super rough and does a good job.

I have tried so many places in Marin and for the first time I found a place that does pedicures exactly how I like them.
