I went for an acrylic fingernail fill and a pedicure. I can't believe it took almost two hours and two people to complete the manicure! I'm used to an efficient 45 minute procedure so will not return to Three Sisters. I feel they wasted my time. read more

Definitely call ahead for an appointment - very kind people and good vibes in this space. Really enjoyed the experience!

Always professional and accommodating to their client's needs, this salon ranks high in the San Rafael area. They do such a beautiful job and their employees are kind and warm. read more

I used to be a loyal fan but then moved away for school. I really hate to say it, but since then I've had better nail techs/sets :/ I always got acrylics here but they'd ALWAYS, without fail, break a couple days later. I really am sad because they're really friendly and sweet, I just think they need to revamp the whole salon and add new techniques/equipment since they're so outdated (no SPA CHAIRS too, like what!) read more

I've been searching far and wide for a nail salon in Marin who is: Friendly Fun Professional Sanitary And who give Quality work: don't over-cut my cuticles, is detailed and takes their time on my gels and acrylics. Oh also, a salon that files by hand and offers to soak off acrylics! I found my place! Me and my best friend hit the jack pot. This place has been here for decades and it was packed full of customers when we were there. Bonus: good communication on the phone. I received an update phone call about a time change. Double bonus: my nails look freaking incredible. read more

Had my hopes up for this place because it is the only nail salon with decent reviews in San Rafael. I went in for a walk-in on Friday afternoon and only had to wait a few minutes. The nail artist who did my nails (didn't get her name) didn't talk much, and didn't ask me what I wanted; she ended up just filing a bit and trimming my cuticles and putting some oil. She put on the color and didn't put on a protective layer after (seems to be a trend with Marin salons, which is why my manicures peel and crack after just a week). My cuticles look worse than when I got there; she nicked one of them and accidentally smeared nail polish on my finger. She tried to send me off without fixing it, but I pointed it out to her. She said that was just my hangnail. It wasn't a hangnail at all; my cuticle was swollen and bright pink because she had cut my skin. I told her to look closer because there was pink nail polish on my angry skin. She laughed and said it was hard to tell, but did wipe it off with a paper towel. Also, the hand massage she gave was really limp and uncomfortable. I would've rather she didn't give me one at all. Overall, for $22 plus a generous tip, I could've instead bought some cuticle oil and pink nail polish and done just as well myself. read more

Very precise with the application. Nails always look good. Have had a couple chips on gels but most of the time they are done well enough to last for a couple weeks read more

I have been going to Three Sisters for over 20 years. Their work is excellent. My nails can last three weeks without chips or lifting. They do a great job. AND they are extremely customer service oriented. After all these years, they feel like family. read more

I was there 8 days ago and I ask for gel manicure but didn't last longer. The staff was nice the job no so good. read more

Lily was amazing!! Another lady started me off and was also great, but I didn't catch her name unfortunately. They took their time to make sure my nails were nice and even. I showed her an inspiration picture and she delivered!! Not only did they care for my nails, but they cared for me as a person. I got a phone call while at the salon with some upsetting/frustrating news that brought me to tears and Lily WIPED MY TEARS!! You don't just get that anywhere!! They made sure I was ok and asked if there was anything they could do. Lily wanted me to leave with a smile on my face and I definitely smiled after seeing my nails. I don't even live in the area, I'm from the suburbs of San Francisco, but I work out in San Rafael every few weeks. As lily said, perfect timing to come get my nails done! I'll definitely be back!! 10/10 would recommend to a friend I paid $65 for my nails which is I think a normal price for a full set with gel and a design *update* 3 hours after my appointment, accidentally bumped into something and my nail just snapped. I leave tomorrow morning for vacation (which is why I got my nails done) so hopefully I can find a shop out in New York that can fix this pinky for me. They did say to be careful with these longer nails because I have shorter nail beds, but I've had my nails this long plenty of times before, done at other shops, and never was this an issue. Originally gave 5 stars but knocked a star off for how easily my nail snapped read more

3 sisters did an EXCELLENT job on my mani-pedi! I walked in, happening to be in town, and they had just had a cancellation. I haven't had such a clean and sturdy gel mani in ages. I will definitely be back whenever I am in town. I appreciated them accommodating me last-minute and how friendly they were while I was there. read more

I went to this shop for years. I always felt the staff was a bit gossipy and had an uncomfortable feeling that they were talking about me. I had a bad experience with one of the owners and requested another person to do my manicure. From that moment on I was treated rudely and made very uncomfortable. It was disappointing to be disrespected. I stopped going there and felt very relieved about a stress free Mani Pedi experience elsewhere read more

Decent nail salon for Marin County. They did a pretty good job. Worked a little slow for my attention span however, did do a nice job. Super nice employees and owner. Just a tad bit on the expensive side of things for getting your nails done. I think I paid $90 plus tip for an acrylic fill with basic gel, and a gel pedicure.. read more

I had a wonderful experience this was my second time ever getting acrylics. My nail tech was great and listened to me. It didn't hurt at all, and he listened to what shape I wanted. I highly recommend Tu as your nail tech he was amazing. read more

I have been searching for a good nail salon ever since I moved to Sausalito months ago. I couldn't seem to find a good place that does amazing acrylics. My search is over!!! Tao did a phenomenal job on my pedicure and she even introduced me to a color that o would have never gone for myself but my toes/nails are LOVING it! She took her time on my pedicure and made sure I got everything I wanted out of it. 2 was absolutely amazing at acrylics. I have been getting acrylic nails on for almost 15 years and ALWAYS went full on square. I wanted to try something different for the first time so I decided to go for the coffin shape. Everyone was so amazingly helpful and answered all of my questions. So far, I will be going there indefinitely! And boy, am I loyal when I find the right salon. A bit of a drive for me but worth it. Enjoy! read more

Thrilled to be back at three sisters!!! I used to go there regularly from 1994-1998 when living in Marin. Moved away now back. Due to Covid my acrylic nails grew completely out. I found out they were still around and OPEN!!!! Lori put a beautiful new set on and the most beautiful French polish as I remember from decades before!!!! Thank you Lori, Angie & Lily for staying in your successful business. God Bless all of you. To anyone who wants a friendly welcoming environment while receiving professional nail care. They are the BEST!!!! read more

This is my go to place for my nails. The service and quality is great. Highly recommended

First time ever going here and I am amazed!! I don't even live in San Rafael. I just happen to be in the area and decided to get my nails done. I called around 5pm and they were able to get me in at 5:30. Lily did my gel manicure and I am extremely picky with how my nails are shaped. Other salons don't give me the "sharp square" look that I love and Lily listened to me and gave me exactly what I wanted! Tho did an amazing job on my toes! I also got a gel pedicure to match my manicure and she did an amazing job shaping them! They are both sweethearts and I enjoyed talking to them! I live 30 mins away but I was blown away by their service that I will definitely be driving over there to get my nails done. Thank you for the wonderful experience read more

Three Sisters Nails - Gel Mani and Pedi - Nail Salons Near Me - San Rafael, California

My girlfriend got a manicure and pedicure done at this place. Not a very pleasant experience from beginning to end. Not a single "hello" when she walked in and not a "goodbye" when she walked out. The lady who was servicing her was talking with her coworkers non stop as she was doing her nails. Very inattentive to detail and she didn't even bother to ask if my girlfriend was satisfied with the work done. Gave 15% tip on a very so so job and not even a "thank you". Hopefully this doesn't reflect to experience of other customers read more

Had a marvelous acrylic full set of nails by one of the three sisters, Angie, that looks absolutely perfect! Also had a pedicure. I'm at two different customers who I've been going to them since they opened in 1990. That kind of loyalty is amazing! I was told it's not as crazy busy as it was today but it was one of the friendliest nail salons read more

Exceptional service My nails always last when I go here and there is never a problem getting in... thank you for making my nails and toes sparkle! The techs are very skilled and help my runner feet feel fabulous! read more

Angie is very hardworking and is very loyal and good to her customers beautiful nails here!

I went to this salon to get my acrylics taken off thinking it would have been a usual visit to any salon. I was WRONG. This place does not use nail drills for some reason. They soaked my nails in acetone and then the nail tech shoved a cuticle cutter between the acrylic and my nail and started chipping away. It was the most painful experience I have ever had. I have gotten acrylics for years and this is NOT the proper way to taken them off. The nail techs were laughing and talking away about me wincing and even crying at the pain. She also ended up slipping and having the cuticle cutter go right into my cuticle. To top it all off, atleast 3 workers blamed it on whoever did my nails because supposedly the acrylic was done to "thick". They think a super thin layer is all you need...?! Overall, if you are looking to just get your acrylics removed go somewhere else!!! read more

I've been getting my nails done here for over 10 years and I've never had an appointment; they can always squeeze me in as a walk-in. They are so thorough and are always willing to do touch ups even a week later. I will never go anyplace else! I highly recommend Three Sisters! read more

This review is overdue, and well deserved. Three Sisters Nails is a small, clean and well coordinated run business. I always feel welcomed and appreciated as a customer. The prices are reasonable. The work is good quality and the customer service is genuine. They get my vote for one of the best nail salons in the area :) read more

Three Sisters Nails - A small yet busy shop finds the way to deliver every time. Their customer service is superb!! One of my favorite nail shops thus far. - Nail Salons Near Me - San Rafael, California

I've been getting manicures here for the last 3 years. It's a family run business so the feeling is different than other salons - the women remember you and are always friendly. Even on my first visit I was greeted like all the regulars in the room. I've worked with all the women and have had great experiences with all of them. They are busy but accommodate everyone well - normally I make an appointment but even if I drop in I don't have to wait long! read more

I have been living in Marin for 5 years and been to close to a dozen places. This is by far the best! All three sisters and their staff are truly the best you will find. They give 100% at making sure im happy with the results. No corners are cut when it comes to the quality.

I LOVE THREE SISTERS!!!! SHOCKED they do not have that many reviews because they are ALWAYS jam packed. They are courtesy, kind, sweet, group of people. AND they do the best nails in town, HANDS DOWN. I've gone to numerous nail salon and no one in the bay area has done better then three sisters! I am pretty particular regarding my nails, no I lied I am anal as h*ll regarding my nails but I never have to repeat myself nor ask them to fix my nails. read more

Friendly owner. But this place needs a bit of cleaning and updating. They do not have pedicure chairs. It's a very cold environment not relaxing at all. Not in the best area. But overall my nails and toes look really good. And a good job was done. read more

This place has the best acrylics and for the best price, you cannot go wrong here no matter what you want done for your nails. Been here many times and have been ecstatic with the results. You can also tell they're really passionate about what they do, and they make every set best as possible. This time I decided to go for an early 00's look. Here's what they look like. read more

Three Sisters is the best in town! I've been searching for a home salon for years and finally found it. Angie and her sisters have the best team. Everyone is extremely detail oriented. I love the technique they use for acrylic nails. Filing only, no drills - something about it makes the nails look extremely elegant. Picture speaks for its self. read more

Three Sisters Nails - Nails by Angie - Nail Salons Near Me - San Rafael, California

I moved here a few weeks ago. The most difficult things are hair and nails! After striking out at 3 other nail places on a Saturday afternoon, they were able to accommodate me. However the nail tech filed my nails down to what felt like the skin underneath them. When I said something she told me my previous gel was "too thick" and she had to do that. We went back and forth about Polish color 4 times ("no, this isn't good, what color do you like? Oh, you don't want red?) finally I said whatever! I don't care just pick one that YOU like! Parking is a bit of a challenge. This will be my backup to whatever ends up being my primary nail salon. Still looking for a hair salon! read more

This is a very busy but lovely salon. Angie is a whirlwind of activity but she is sweet, professional and really gets the job done! I was a dialysis patient visiting from Philadelphia and my nails were horrible! When I left my fingers and toes looked amazing! She actually rebuilt 1/2 a nail on my great toe with acrylic and gel. Then finished with a beautiful French manicure! I will try to upload pictures. They also DON'T use electric nail grinders in any way which I find personally satisfying. Kudos to you Angie read more

I absolutely love this salon and the welcoming ladies to tend to everyone. I look forward to my next visit when things open up in January!

So glad I found this nail salon (only wish I had found it sooner). They def have a large clientele so make an appointment before coming. I had a short wait as a walk in but was able to get mani/pedi and so happy with them both. read more

I wanted to love this place, I really did but it didn't work out. The first time I came here, the lady dropped a tool on the floor and proceeded to use that same tool cutting out my in grown toenails. Mind you, other peoples cuticle skin was on that same floor.... GROSS. She then cut me and proceeded to still dig with that same tool, resulting me to bleed. The polish wasn't even and neither were my toe nails. The second time I came in was my final straw. The owners said "you'll have the best pedicure" again I had the worst pedicure. Uneven polish and toenails. She begged me to try this place out again, unfortunately I will not be returning. The owner asked me how it was and I told her just as bad as the first time, she begged me to come back the third time and try someone else out. I will definitely not be returning. If your customer wasn't pleased the first time around, maybe the second time around, place them with someone you know they'll love. read more

I miss not visiting this shop durning the covid shut down. They efficient, clean and very hardworking. Great pedicure and nails. You gotta call to get an appointment, and the owner can sound a little gruff, but dont be put off---she's running a big show there! read more
