Reviews for Mai's Nail Perfection
This small store isn't terribly expensive and the workers are very nice to their customers. I would prefer however, to go somewhere a little bit less commercialized.

Don't not have your Bridesmaids nail party or any other party there. Read all the reviews about what a great place to go and get your nails done at. They'd lied. French tip was uneven. Mai her self worked on my nails and did a really really bad job... Manicures were bad and pedicures were even worse. I've done my own pedicures before and looks way better than Mai work. The lady that did my pedicure cleaned too too deep on my big toe, it got infected. She lifted nail and got out of place. Please do not go and get any work done at Mai Nail Perfection.
Pros: Good customer service, Friendly people, clean enivornment.
Cons: Bad location for busniess, little to no parking

Mai's Nail Perfection is the place to go for a great mani or pedi. Mai is the best!!! She makes you feel as you are the most important person in the world. The salon is above the standard for cleanliness. I recommend Mai's Nail Perfection to all my friends and even to strangers. The set up makes customers feel special. Also you can get an appointment before going to work.
Pros: Early morning appointments
Cons: N/A

Mai's is the greatest nail salon in Houston. The quality of the manicures, pedicures, facials, and waxing is top-notch. Ambience is adorable without being stuffy, unlike other places in town - you will always feel comfortable at Mai's. I do a lot of entertaining for work, and I always bring people to Mai's - there is no place better!

Cons: NONE

Mai's is great- the best. I moved out of town last year and drive in to every once a month to get my pedicure because they are that good! My only regret is that I didn't start going to Mai's sooner. Don't forget to check out the jewelry.

Mai's Nail Perfection is a fun, cozy environment where customers can relax while receiving the most natural acrylic nails, great manicures/pedicures and facials. I have been able to schedule appointments to easily fit my busy schedule. Mai is a very interesting person with a great personality so it is always an enjoyable experience to visit the salon. Now that I have had my nails done at Mai's, I will not try another salon!
Pros: Natural looking acrylic nails; fun, cozy environment; great customer service

Mai's Nail Perfection offers all nail and spa services above and beyond that of your average shop. Mai is concerned about the overall health and appearance of her customers nails, in addition to the satisfaction of her customers. Most customers become instant friends with Mai! You are not worried that the nail technicians are talking about the customers in another language!! Here the customers feel at home.
The pedicures are to die for and Mai creates jewelry for any occasion - another benefit of her friendship. So make your appointment now - this is not the average walk-in shop - expect her to be on time and ready for you when you arrive!
Pros: Always on time and will make herself available to busy schedules
Cons: None!

I visited Mai's for a manicure and pedicure a few weeks ago after seeing good reviews on this site but was not impressed at all. The results were far less than perfect with edges not polished and inconsistent shaping. This is a small space that looks like someone's house with spa equipment (manicure tables and pedicure spa chairs) just placed inside with a family dog as part of the ambiance. The accessories, handbags, etc. for the "boutique" sales were not well displayed or organized. Overall I would not recommend this place over a local nail shop.
Pros: none
Cons: skill, ambiance, parking

I visited Mai for the first time on November 18, 2005. She did a lovely job. She does all her work by hand; she does not use electric nail filers, buffers, etc. For French manicures, she creates the white tip by hand using white acryllic powder, as opposed to a factory-manufactured, plastic white tip. Be prepared to pay for her superior service; $60 for a full set and $40 for fills.

I have been going to Mai's ever since I moved to this area and have never been to a better place. The atmosphere is cozy, not "sterile" and the conversation is tops. Mai Tran is very personable and a delight to talk to.

Mai keeps us on time for whatever it is we need to be doing. If you have a last minute nail crisis Mai and her crew will be there for the rescue.
I have been going to Mai's for 10 years now and will not go any place else.
Pros: Great Location
Posted 12/03/02
Hands down, this is the best salon experience in the greater Houston area. It is a warm environment, staff is very friendly and personable, and they keep the flash at a minimum. I would rate this over 10 if possible.
Pros: Warm and friendly, Extremely skilled, Clean facilities
Cons: None!
