I am so happy I discovered this nail salon! Lee the owner is amazing and she deserves all the success in the world. She is extremely hardworking and works 7 days a week yet still has a great attitude and smile on her face. She had to stay an hour extra later than closing time for me and had zero complaints. She was actually grateful that I came in to do both a pedi and new set. I get the most scared when it comes to the drilling tools as I have gotten cut so many times with other nail artists. Lee is SO careful and I've never met someone so careful in my life and I've been doing acrylics for 10+ years just to give you an idea of how many nail salons I've gone through. I feel safe with her and that means a lot. Her shapes are super nice and sharp just like how I like it. She fulfills all of my requests such as thinner nails. My nails haven't lifted and lasts up to a month. Her prices are very fair. A new ombre coffin medium length set was $75. The ladies that does the pedicures are also very sweet and detailed. I highly recommend this salon! read more

Walked in a few minutes early for a 5pm appointment with Kim and was helped right away. Great prices for a pedicure with paraffin wax $40. My regular place was booked so I tried here. It's in a strip mall, a little hard to find but worth the search. Relaxing music playing on the TV. They say they serve wine but I asked for some and they were out. Maybe next time read more

Hand Candy Nail Spa - Nail Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

Yikes!! Not friendly at all and the lady doing my pedicure was extremely rough where it was not relaxing one bit.

Came here recently to try a new spot and I loved my nails. The lady was kind and my nails have lasted 3 weeks with no chips, cracks, or broken nails. I liked that she took her time to perfect my nails but I also didn't have to sit there for 2 hours, she was quick and efficient :) I will be back! read more

They wanna charge too much just a nail polish change. It's ridiculous. And it's just to remove polish and put another color on.

I'm so happy I found Lee at Hand Candy Nail Spa. This place is extremely clean and in the best location. I've been to a few nail spots in Willow Glen and this is by far the best. I've had gel manicures and gel pedicures done here and I've always left super happy. I also want to note that my gel manicure actually comes with a manicure. I've had gel manicure services done elsewhere and they usually don't cut my cuticles and this place does a really great job and making sure your natural nails are healthy and your cuticles are healthy. My nails have also lasted the longest when getting them done by Lee. I'm a hairstylist and disinfection and sanitation are super important to me, and this place meets all of my standards. Basic gel manicure and basic gel pedicure are $85. read more

The place is small with limited parking right out front but it's very nice super clean and warm inviting. The ambiance is pretty and with the window front makes the temperature just right inside. I was kindly greeted and stated my service which was an overlay. My nails were very short and uneven, the nail tech did a really good job! She was nice, clean tools, good advice and gentle. I would definitely recommend this place I paid $70 for an overlay with French, again my nails were challenging so I didn't mind paying. Oh lastly, the nail tech was very professional and held a very professional conversation not like most nail techs who ask all about your personal life. read more

My new go to place, so happy my cousin told me about hand candy nails!! As soon as I arrived I was offered a complimentary drink, I chose tea and it was perfect for my relaxing Saturday morning. Lee is such a sweet heart and so welcoming. She took her time and my nails look amazing!!!! I got dip powder in my natural nails and loved the color, the shape, and the design. I can't wait to come back and bring my mom for a girls pampering date! read more

I went to get a mani pedi today (8/18/22) and this is my second time coming here. Each time I have walked away very satisfied with the quality and care put into my nails. They make sure you're comfortable and also have such good attention to detail when painting nails. The finished product looked amazing both times and I'm very happy with their services. The location is also very peaceful and quiet which helps makes for a relaxing time. Hand Candy was recommended to me and I'd easily recommend it to others. read more

I moved to the area a few months ago and I'm soo glad I found this salon. Lee is highly skilled, I've had 3 appts. with her and I'm always happy -I get a powder fill and pedicure every 3-4 weeks, plus brow waxing service. She's very friendly, takes really good care of her clients -her salon is always very clean, organized and the location is perfect! Parkin get a little snug but there's plenty of street parking nearby. I know Lee and her other nail technician get very busy on Fridays and weekends, so I try to go on off days like Tuesday and Wednesday. Highly recommend this salon, you won't be disappointed! read more

Amazing nail artists. My friend recommended this place and I will probably never have my nails done anywhere else now. Look at how pretty! And she did it so fast. read more

This is the best nail salon I've ever used. The owner is very careful and her nails last a lot longer than the place I used to go.

Rude And ignorant people! Zero customer service. Would not recommend at all!! Work is not even that good

This was the first time in a very long time I got my nails done and I am so happy with the results! I am not a girlie girl by any means but I want to be so bad lol and this place has made me feel so pretty lol. I showed her a picture of what I wanted she took one look at it and got it EXACTLY! The ladies are sweet and caring. I highly recommend it!! read more

I don't think I've ever had a 10+ year relationship that I've loved soo much. Lee has been though it all with me and I'm soo happy for her and her new place of business! She is such an amazing nail tech and person. She won't let you leave without being happy. For someone to promote another place of business when she has worked so hard to be where she is, is baffling. Her work speaks for itself! I promise you won't find another like her! This is her hard work over the years. No bumps or lumps here read more

I experienced an okay service, nails were not 100% percent to my liking ..they were coated with a powder , They were way to thick they looked fat , I've been to many nails salons so, I know how I like my nails to look, thin and not thick.. They looked to cakey. I asked for Acrylic nails, Coffin style semi medium length.. & she charged 65$ like what!!! one freaking color style ! Very overpriced for a simple nail color . Next time I'm going to KN Nails over on Alma ave in San Jose..They do an amazing job Beautiful Detailed Designs on nails for such a fair price ! I recommend not coming to Handy candy for OVERPRICED NAILS ..SUCH A RIP OFF ! Very dissapointing! horrible job !!!!! read more

So happy this place has popped up in my neighborhood! Yes there are a lot of nail salons in Willow Glen but this place is owned by a very sweet couple who are very passionate about customer service. Le gives a wonderful pedicure with an amazing massage! She learned my name right away and even remembered me (with a mask on) when I popped by a few weeks later to make another appointment. The place is new and spotless and there is plenty of nearby parking (unlike most of the other places on Lincoln. Highly recommend!! read more

I've been there twice now, so clean, friendly and they do an AMAZING pedicure- seriously! The owner goes above and beyond, so glad I found this gem!!!! read more

I went to Hand Candy based on Yelp reviews. I was not disappointed! In fact, I was super impressed with Lee. I came in wanting a dip but because I don't like e-files on my nails, she suggested gel. She meticulously trimmed my cuticles and we went with gel and beautifully painted snowflakes on my ring fingers. Love it! I will be coming back! Thanks, Lee! =) read more

This is a lovely, relaxing new place with great hospitality and excellent mani/pedi!

This salon is brand new and opened on July 1st, 2021. It's clean, has awesome massage chairs and a great color selection. I mention the date it opened because the owner doesn't have a full staff yet but she said she is currently trying to hire. Lee did an amazing job with my Mani/Pedi and I even got a small glass of wine to enjoy. I highly recommend The Hand Candy Nail Spa! read more
