    Note the thickness
    Nerrissa M.

    I had been coming to Q nails since 2022, and while they still don't remember me by name or face, they've always been efficient and smiling. But this week the nail tech played in my face and attempted to upcharge me multiple times! I came in for an acrylic fill $38 which was relayed to me by the man on the phone and normally I'm too shy to speak up, but when i told her my appointment she quoted it as $40! I quickly told her he *pointed to man* said $38. Then when it came to repairing one nail ($5 dollars per nail) she began pulling my acrylics OFF my intact nail bed which several times I said OW and to stop. She tried to say I took to long pointing to the actual bad nail. I said, I was here 2 weeks ago and it was my first fill in the set and it already popped off. When I asked THAT nail tech whether to replace the whole nail or not she super glued it and said it would be fine. Then to be told by THIS tech it's my fault I waited too long and it was water damaged (yall it turned green and I've never encountered that before), and proceeded to make her points without understanding she's trying to upcharge for an addition 2 going on 3 more nails she was attempting to rip off. I was appalled. She tried to say she'd only charge for 2 nails. And proceeded to talk to other staff in her language which is normally fine but she was looking at me and laughing at me as she did so. Come on yall. I was getting annoyed. I was being silent most of the time she filed me rough and left the nails thick (see attached photo) when normally my nails look like the video I posted. It's just sad she tried playing it off in the end saying "do you like it? It's beautiful right?" Like no Sis. She ended up still charging for the 2 nails and I left a $5 tip for her and her boss to split because I was on the verge of tears.

    I came in one morning after work to pass time while waiting to catch a flight. Emmy did my nails and did a great job! I've been trying to search for a new nail salon in the area and I think I've found one! It's been two weeks and they are still hanging on strong!

    This has been my neighborhood spot for awhile and Jenny is my goto!! I trust her with my nails so much. She always takes her time to make sure my nails come out perfect and just how I like them! I would always come to her for my acrylics before and now I'm on the "natural nails w/gel" hype. She's super sweet and never disappoints!

    I was able to walk in and get started right away they did a great job with my gel manicure, but a little on the slower side. I'll still go back because of location and convenience.

    I have looked all over Sunnyvale and Mt. View for a decent nail spa closer to home but... after two years and countless acrylic attempts I had to come back to Kim! Perfect shape, length, width, smooth powder application and flawless painting. Definitely worth the drive back to SC. Thanks Kim!!!

    Ann did my nails! I love this bright red color!

    Once again the ladies at Q Nails are awesome! I came as a walk in on Oct 11, 2019 and Ann did my nails! Always satisfied with the ladies work!

    Before pic,  Sept 5th 2019, nails were dying for a fill! Lol

    Late review, (my bad) My name is Nikki, I had just moved from Milwaukee, WI to San Jose, CA on Sept. 5, 2019..I had been looking for a nail tech. My Gel fill was already a few weeks old because of the relocation...I looked up "10 Best nail Salons in San Jose in my area and "Q Nails" was the closest one the list. So on Sept 14, I called, made a appt. Kim did my nails! I told her 1 time what I wanted done, she did exactly how I wanted it! She was nice, friendly, all smiles, she was very courteous, she did not rush on my nails which is a plus! Her tools were clean. Needless to say I am a very satisfied customer, and will continue to see her!

    She is the best!!

    THE BEST MONEY I HAVE EVER SPENT!…read more I loved this place and would highly recommend. I did the scalp therapy. If you're someone who loves head scratches, this is literally 1.5 hours of you laying in heaven. I am so grateful that Cindy is an esthetician who are knowledgeable about what she do and want the best for her clients. Cindy informed me on everything that was happening and all the products she used smelled amazing and made my scalp feel fresh and new. Let me explain all the beauties of this treatment! You start off by taking your shirt off afterwards and put on a robe before getting on the bed. She then starts off with a forehead, temple, neck, and shoulder massage. After that's finished, she puts on a heated eye mask and then begins all the hair things. My hair was washed with OLAPLEX shampoo about 2x, and throughout it all she is massaging my head nonstop. I love the head massage the most! There is a water ring around your head that waterfalls on vou to rinse vour hair multiple times as well. She also uses a head scratcher which gave me so many tingles! The treatment finishes off by washing your neck and shoulders. She ends it by using a DYSON SUPERSONIC HAIR DRYER to blow drying my hair. My scalp felt sooo clean and my hair was so soft. I LOVED it. Usually my hair gets oily after a day, but after she washed it my hair was silky and shiny for almost 2-3 days!! I felt super refreshed and I think I will stay with CINDY PRO forever! 5 starts

Dealing with her is stressful, she doesn't know how to talk to people at all. The vibes were not great but I gave it a try. The sugaring did work so I'll give 3 stars for that. I tried another sugaring place and wow what a difference. It was more relaxing, less painful, and the person doing my sugaring was very sweet. Plus it was way more affordable. I won't be coming back to this place again but I'm glad I gave sugaring a try much better than waxing.

    After almost 3.5 years of going to this location at EWC, I can no longer support this business…read more After being inappropriately touched and handled by an inexperienced "licensed" waxer, I took the time and steps to inform both management and corporate, only to find out that the waxer faced no disciplinary action and was not fired. What made the situation even more frustrating was the way corporate handled the follow-up. I received a random phone call from corporate, where my name was repeatedly pronounced incorrectly, only to be informed that they were closing my case. There was no meaningful resolution or explanation of what was actually being done to address the situation. I was also ghosted by the manager of this branch when I asked for an update regarding the issue and was completely ignored when I was at the front desk this weekend, despite being told that I would not be treated differently because of what happened. I am extremely disappointed with the outcome of this situation and honestly shocked by EWC's standards and lack of accountability when it comes to protecting their clients. Clients should be able to feel safe and comfortable during their appointments, and waxers should be properly knowledgeable about safe and appropriate waxing procedures, appropriate topics to discuss with clients, and, most importantly, appropriate and safe touch. After almost 3.5 years as a client, I never expected to be treated this way or to be so disappointed by how this situation was handled.
