About

About Mai

Nails by Mai is a one-seat studio at the front of Mai Truong's Footscray home. 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.
