Customer's reviews

When I moved to Vancouver 2 years ago I was looking for someone who does BIAB or Hard Gel nails. I had weak and short nails and I wanted to grow out my natural nail as acrylics never lasted for me. Once I met Maria I never went anywhere else. She has helped me grow my natural nails and each set stays strong for 3-4 weeks. I love my nails every time! She has even done nail art for different events in my life. The facilities are clean and beautiful too. Thank you for everything Maria you’re amazing!! ~ Sacha B
I have been a loyal customer at Shibui Nails for over a year now, and I can't express how consistently impressed I am with Maria's services. Maria consistently delivers exceptional manicures and pedicures, and her work with my natural nails is nothing short of amazing. One of the things that has always stood out to me during my visits is the impeccable cleanliness of the salon and the equipment Maria uses. It's clear that hygiene and client safety are top priorities at Shibui Nails, which provides me with peace of mind every time I visit. Aside from her professional expertise, Maria's friendly and welcoming personality is a huge part of what makes my visits so enjoyable. She is a fantastic listener and always takes the time to understand my preferences and ensure I'm comfortable throughout the entire experience. I can confidently say that Shibui Nails, with Maria at the helm, is my go-to destination for nail care. I look forward to many more years of outstanding service and beautiful nails thanks to Maria's skill and dedication. Thank you, Maria, for your exceptional nail care! ~ Andrea G
I have been going to Maria for well over a year now and remain impressed. If you are looking for consistent, professional, and detail oriented service then you must go see her. I am very picky about my nails, and she takes the time to make sure everything is done exactly as I request...The quality of the products she uses is the highest, and her space is super cute and relaxing. Highly Recommend Shibu Nails! ~ Angela L
