Jessica did my nails and Thao did my daughter's, and we both left so happy! Jessica always does an amazing job. I showed her what I wanted, and she nailed it. My nails came out clean, beautiful, and perfect for summer. She pays attention to every detail and never makes me feel rushed. Thao was wonderful with my daughter. She was so patient and kind, and my daughter absolutely loves her cute cherry nail design. It turned out even better than we expected! The whole experience was relaxing, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. It's not always easy finding nail techs you trust, but Jessica and Thao are definitely our go-to girls. We can't wait to come back! read more

WOW! Daisy did such an amazing job! Highly recommend. She took her time even when I kept changing things up. read more

Before coming to see Daisy, I had such bad experiences with builder gel. My nails would chip quickly, look bulky, and previous nail techs over-filed my nails causing damage. My sister has been coming to Pjnko for years and recommended I see Daisy. Since coming to Daisy, I haven't had any of those issues. She is so detail-oriented and truly cares about maintaining the integrity and health of my nails. She's also incredibly talented with nail art, every inspo picture I've brought her has turned out even better than I imagined. I recently asked her to create a set for my upcoming Hawaii trip, and I was impressed with how beautiful each nail came out. She truly is incredibly talented. read more

‼‼DO NOT GO HERE ‼‼ Wouldn't recommend to anyone. You'd be better off anywhere else, your toes will come in worse than when you came in, however overgrown. She left MULTIPLE scrapes on my toes, ant and all cuts were super uneven. This was the WORST experience I've ever had in a nail salon. There was ZERO force applied to the massage. Never have I hated myself for wasting 35$. Manicurist was distracted and didn't look at my toes. She spent 15 minutes max on ALL removing the polish, buffing, and an additional sugar scrub/massage. Lady did not give a s*. It was also overcrowded. Environment was "meh". Only redeeming quality was that the guy in the front sat me down fast... if anything. read more

Great experience, got my mom and I in quickly and next to each other for our pedicures. I waited to do my review until the first chip in my nail polish so I could give an accurate timeframe of how long it lasts. I got them done on Sunday January 11th and the first chip was Tuesday February 3rd. That's some good quality nail polish! I am on my feet excessively both shoeless and with socks & shoes on, so I need a high quality and long lasting pedicure. This was worth every penny and I didn't even get gel! 10/10 recommend read more

I came in with my sister to do a color change on my toes which were previously white and wanted them repainted white. During my service, I had a Vietnamese woman who I overheard her speaking to her co workers about overcharging me since I was young. She did not expect me to speak Vietnamese but I did understand everything she said as Vietnamese is my first language. Along with this, she only filed off the previous polish off of my toes and didn't bother reshaping my nails or even just cutting them down, which should be bare minimum! When I asked her to cut my nails at least, she tried to charge me for that but her co worker interrupted her and disagreed with her since reshaping is again, THE BARE MINIMUM. After all of this, my toes still looked horribly done. The paint was tacky, clumpy, and extremely uneven. If you guys plan to come here make sure you're aware of how they take advantage of their customers! read more

I really wanted to like this place since it was so close to me. First set I got the nail tech cut me while trimming back cuticles. The set lifted and thumb nail fully popped off after 5 days. Second appointment same nail tech cut two of my nail beds again. I got a chrome top and found lots of bumps. Overall would not recommend or proceed with caution. read more

My mom went to pinko to get her gel x nails removed after they did them crooked and never fixed it at request. When she went with my sister the lady REMOVED THE LITERAL GEL X NAIL with pliers like they were meant to pop off.( Mind you they know how to soak) While my mom was obviously communicating that she was in pain, the lady ignored her and continued. It wasn't until my sister finally got her attention while she ignored my sister that she finally stopped destroying the nail bed to soak off the other hand. She had no problem with the lady before but when it came to my mother she was disrespectful, rude, and unprofessional in every way. She could've caused harm to my mom's nails and no one should go through that kind of pain at an establishment like this. This especially speaks volumes because they came on Juneteenth as today speaks volumes for many African Americans. I am highly disappointed as I couldn't imagine what it would've been like if my mom went by herself and she didn't have my sister to speak up for her. As someone who recommended this place to my family out of the great product, community, and respect I received, I am extremely disappointed in the quality of work and ethic it showed today!!! read more

I happened to be in the area today and in needed of getting my Christmas nails removed, so I came by as a walk in, which is welcome if you don't mind who does your nails. I asked for Lynn but unfortunately she was not available when I walked in. It was still a 45 minute wait, no problem, I went over to Starbucks that's located in the same plaza to get a drink and scroll through reels. I'm not entirely sure, but I think the Owner came over to let me know that it was just another 5 minutes before my turn. Quickly walked back, chose my colors, and guess what! I got Chi Lynn! I think he intentionally planned it out, I am thankful cause I love her! We caught up on each other's lives, and as always, she did such an amazing job with my nails! I am in love with them! xoxo read more

This is my go-to spot for Gel X nails. I really enjoy my experiences with Han and Tran so I try to book with them when I can! The staff at the front taking clients is always super nice and very appreciative of their clients. They do their best to make you feel welcome. The inside is pretty big and they have many stations for both manicures and pedicures. The pedicure chairs have built in massage functions to enjoy. Tips: 1. Make an appointment online or over the phone for quick service, but no need to make an appointment. They are very walk-in friendly. 2. If you enjoy a more relaxed experience at a less busy time, I recommend going in on weekdays or if you need to go in on the weekend, to try going in before 10am. 3. Sometimes if it's busy and you are trying to get a manicure and pedicure, the staff will come over to try and do the manicure while you are getting a pedicure, but they are ok with doing the services separately, just let them know you prefer that. read more

This was a surprise find! The shop is a decent sized shop with about 8 chairs. The parking in front is limited because many of them at 30 minute parking spots. We walked in and we were able to get a manicure and pedicure right away! That was great! The supplies were good quality and equivalent to many bigger franchised nail salons in the area. The entire place seemed clean. There were a lot of color options. I was obsessed with the lotion smell even after I came home. The technicians were detailed oriented and careful. I would be curious to come back to try their acrylic nails and designs next time! You also get a nice little discount if you pay with cash. And if you forget cash, you can tip the technicians to their Venmo accounts. read more

I was going to be in town, so I reserved two pedicures online a week before. I called the day of to change the time to later because I knew I was running late. The person on the phone said it would be fine and I didn't feel any judgement at all (as one might feel after missing an appointment). So I was in high spirits before I got there. When we did arrive, the person at the front didn't immediately look up from their phone, which is totally forgivable because I do that sometimes, but when I said hello, they still didn't acknowledge my prescience but waited until they were done doing whatever they were doing to greet me. I thought that was pretty awkward but they didn't seem phased. There are 4-5 seats as you wait -- it's a pretty busy shop. The lady who worked on my pedi said their busy times are the holidays and summertime. So even if you have an appointment, be prepared for a 10 min wait. They do have a bathroom in the very back. I was seated first, and they sat my company a few minutes later, two seats away from me. I'm glad the front desk person noticed, and had the ladies reseat us so that we were next to each other. I planned on getting gel polish and they had a good selection. I ended up going with a green cat eye. The pedi was $47, getting gel was $15 extra, and getting the cat eye design was $10 extra. The ladies were really nice. I get really bad calloused heels, so I opted for the callous removal pedi...they didn't get all the callouses out like other places I've gone to. Since the person I took with me was planning on getting clear polish, they didn't show the ladies a color selection. Because of that, they didn't get their toes painted. They should have spoken up but I also think the ladies should have asked. You can bring cash for a cash discount. Overall, it was a positive experience, but because service was slightly lacking and because my company didn't get all that came with a pedicure, I don't think I'd personally come back whenever I visit San Jose again. read more

I've been a customer of Pinko Nails for over 3 years now, so this review is way overdue! Every visit is great, but today truly blew me away. I came in for a builder gel refill and a pedicure with a pretty wild request for my upcoming Maui trip. I wanted 3D gel, 3D flowers, starfish, and seashells on my nails. Honestly, I wasn't even sure it could be done... but Tammy absolutely exceeded all expectations. She is a true artist! She was patient, professional, and her attention to detail is incredible. My nails turned out beyond beautiful and are perfect for Hawaii Kayla did my pedicure and, as always, she was amazing. Over the years, I've also been helped by Mina, Jessica, Han, and so many others, and every single person here is talented and kind. The owner and staff always make me feel welcomed, plus I've referred so many friends and coworkers here and they all love it too. Thank you, Pinko Nails, for always delivering amazing service and gorgeous results. I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

she cut me 4 times before prom and the nails are hideous, the shaping is really bad and uneven none of the fingers look the same and she left a bunch of dried gel polish on my hands and fingers. These were supposed to be my prom nails. Also a different lady cut my friends finger too. read more

I'm new to San Jose (from LA, where good, creative gel design is plentiful!) and wanted a gel mani with design. This business heavily advertised on Yelp and I wanted to try them out since the photos looked so great. When I actually got there, they seated the family who checked in after me first. And left me waiting at the front for 10 minutes before I finally went to the back to use the restroom and some random nail tech told me to sit down. She filed my nails unevenly and then said that she wouldn't be able to do my nails unless I showed her the exact design of what I want on each nail. I gave her inspo pics and she couldn't figure it out. She called the manager over and both of them said they couldn't help me unless they had the exact designer to copy. I ended up leaving with just a base coat on my nails. Don't come here unless you just want a basic manicure or you want a copycat of whatever crappy designs you find online. read more

I booked my appointment online for 4:30 PM with Nikita. If a business offers an online booking system, I assume it's actually being used and respected. I arrived early at 4:15 PM, checked in, and told the man at the front desk that my name was Arlene and I had a 4:30 appointment. He asked if I had called to book, and I said no, I booked online. He responded by saying that next time I should call instead, especially if I want a specific nail tech. That immediately made me question why they even offer online booking if clients are expected to call anyway. I still waited patiently. At 4:30 they brought me to a back station and then... nothing. No one acknowledged me, no update, no apology, no technician. By 4:45 I decided to leave because it was clear no one was going to check on me or start my appointment. It was disappointing and honestly felt like my time didn't matter. If you're going to offer online booking, the system should actually work and clients shouldn't be made to feel like they did something wrong for using it. Basic communication and acknowledgment would have gone a long way. read more

Certain ladies there are great at copying a picture of nails that you want done. Just make sure they communicate back to you and assure that they can do it.
