Had such a lovely experience here with my 15-year-old daughter. She came in for a pedicure and decided last minute that I should treat myself too -- so I opted for a facial, and I'm so glad I did! Nessa was my technician and she is incredible. This was my third facial with her, and I'm officially three for three on falling asleep mid-session -- that's how relaxing and soothing her technique is. My skin feels so clean, refreshed, and noticeably tighter. The entire staff at Venus is warm, welcoming, and professional. They made both of us feel so comfortable and cared for. Whether you're looking for a spa day with your teen or just some quality self-care time, Venus Nail Salon is a go-to in Los Gatos. Highly recommend Nessa for facials -- you won't regret it! read more

Friendly technicians and thorough pedicures. We both got the deluxe, which included a salt soak, paraffin wrap and hot stone massage. The express includes the stone massage but for 5 minutes instead of 10. It took an hour to do the deluxe and it felt wonderful, but I think next time I will try the express to save some time. Plenty of color choices, includes gel and regular and also dips for fingernails. read more

Rose did an amazing job!! I decided to try this place because I needed a last-minute acrylic manicure before a holiday, and I was pleasantly surprised. Rose carefully listened to what I wanted and was incredibly kind and patient when I asked to adjust the shape a bit. Not only that, but she was also very easy to talk to--there was never a dull moment throughout my entire experience! The salon was spotless, and the staff was warm and welcoming. The attention to detail and customer service truly exceeded my expectations. I left feeling thrilled with my nails and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend--10/10! read more

First time here and my nails look fantastic. Good price and very friendly staff. Thank you.

I come here a couple of times each year to get a mani-pedi with my mother-in-law. The service is great and the nail technicians are very friendly and professional. The nail salon has a calm and relaxing vibe, and the paraffin wax treatment is my favorite. Recommend! read more

I've been a regular because they do amazing manicures and pedicures (always super thorough) and my nails look perfect every time. One day I was talking about facials and Nessa told me they offered it and I was surprised and decided to give it a try. I haven't gone anywhere else since! The experience is completely different from other facials I've had. They include a head and scalp massage that's unbelievably relaxing, and the whole process feels so luxurious that I end up falling asleep a couple times!! My skin always looks refreshed and glowing afterward and they have fancy gadgets including steamers, red light therapy, blue light, etc. I introduced my 57 year old mother and she loved the anti-age collagen facial! If you're looking for a place that truly knows what they're doing, this is it! read more

I really enjoy Venus Nail Spa, my mom and I will go each time she's in town! Such friendly service, and they can always accommodate our limited schedule with only a few days notice at times. Comfy massage chairs, clean environment (even the restroom), plenty of colors to choose from and such great service. They are so incredibly friendly and accommodating. We like the deluxe mani/pedi combo, as we can get paraffin (when it's so needed!). I don't do color, but my mom has tried both dip and gel (always for her toes, and both on her nails). The quality was amazing! What makes this place so unique is they are 100% focused on customer service, and that's what I was missing in this area. I could find quality and cleanliness elsewhere too - but never have I had this friendly and accommodating service. Prices are right in point for the area, and I have always enjoyed a great massage with my services (with the deluxe, it's with hot stones and lovely!). I highly recommend. We usually walk but I imagine parking could be a little hard to come by at busy times, but they have a lot in the back of the building we have used in rain and a rush before. Those times, never any struggle to find a spot - but with the other businesses it might be tough. If you can walk - highly recommend :)! read more

In my opinion this is the best nail spot in town. It's insanely clean which is why I sought them out in the first place. Reading reviews on how clean and sanitary they are is super important to me. Plus all the techs are all super friendly and kind to work with. I always love the quality of the service and their prices are awesome. I will keep coming here forever!!! read more

Absolutely amazing service! The quality of my dip nails was amazing and the staff is very accommodating and friendly.

After six years going here, I'm still a devoted client. The warmth and friendliness is so inviting, and I can relax on my day off. The care and consideration for clients is way above other nail salons I've been to. They try very hard to please all their customers and as a worker bee myself, I can only imagine what they have to put up with on a daily basis (seen first hand) with all the difficult silver spoon locals, including Los Gatos teens and their very demanding mothers. I still will be a devoted customer and make their their hard work seem, at the very least, worth gratifying, and I'm always grateful!! They are still so nice and polite, even with the most bitchy Los Gatos white chicks. Honestly, I don't know how they do it. I am, by the way, a white chick but not one of those Stepford wives--- if yall know what I mean!! read more

I have been going to Venus nail salon for several years. I recommend Emily for manicure/pedicures! She is fabulous'! Very talented and professional. I just started getting facials with Nessa. She is also wonderful! She has 3 levels of facials . I like the middle one. My skin is clean and glowing afterwards. Love it! read more

Found this place on Yelp and glad I gave it a try. Kudos to the salon for keeping the doors open for me through a brutal storm which had all kinds of businesses closed. I called about 4:30pm for a 6pm appt (basic mani/pedi). At the time, I had no idea they were closed due to the storm, but a nail tech had come in to service a regular. Well, after she was done with her regular, she waited for me. Kim did my pedi and another nail tech came in to do my mani; her name is Emily (or Loan if you are Viet). These ladies did such an amazing job (see photos). I brought in my own nail polish, but they use OPI from what I could see. Although I came in and was the only one there, they didn't rush me at all. In fact, they insisted I do the massage which I told them not to bc I felt bad keeping them from heading home. I am super pleased with my mani/pedi. I do just a basic one (mani $25 and pedi $35) but I am very particular about my mani. My nailbeds are long, so I like to cut them SUPER close to the skin. Most places hate that, but Emily was up for the challenge. I'm also picky about my cuticle cutting, and both Kim and Emily did a great job. The salon itself is conveniently located in a small shopping plaza with plenty of parking. The salon is clean and has plenty of stations. I will definitely come back here again! Thank you Kim and Emily. read more

I have been visiting Venus Nails for over four years now. This place is so welcoming that it makes me feel like family. Emily and Nessa do such a great job. Both are professional, kind, and friendly. I can't see myself going anywhere else. Emily takes good care of my nails and ensures they are strong and protected. Nessa is also very good with my daughter's nails. I am always confident coming to get my nails done. We have some great conversations. I highly recommend this place in Los Gatos. read more

I can't lie. I'm a total salon snob. I don't go to salons with vibrating chairs and foot baths with plumbing. But *sometimes* you're up against a deadline, like New Years Eve and you and your friend are desperately in need of a cute mani. So all last minute I message these guys because they are around the corner from my friend's house the day before. Michael hooked us up with a 9am NYE manis. We both arrived on time and so did they. Her nails look great! I've got black nails and they look great! Well done Venus. Happy New Year! read more

This review is long over due. I have been going to Venus for a while now and have never been disappointed with their service. I always request Emily for my dipped manicures and she does a beautiful job every time! If you are like me, OCD about every nail being the same length and shape you should see Emily, she makes them perfect! When I first started coming here, they only had about 12 colors, but now they probably have over 30 colors to choose from! I believe they charge $40 for a dipped manicure and $35 for gel, but dipped is the way to go. My nails last a lot longer and no UV light is used. I will not go anywhere else! read more

I've been seeing Emily regularly for about 5 months now and I'm obsessed with the dip manis! I'm really particular about my nails and she does a great job making sure everything is even. She takes her time and is meticulous. I can get a solid 3 weeks out of my manis, which is awesome! She's really pleasant to talk with too. I've gotten a few pedicures too and they're also awesome, especially the massages! I highly recommend coming here! read more

Had an hour to kill, while I was in LG, and decided to go get a pedicure. I have my favorite place in WG but wasn't close by and figured I'd give this place a chance, because of the great reviews. Helen (I believe she is the owner) did my gel pedicure and she was great. I took off a star because she had to stop a few times to fix the basin and remove parts/reattach parts during the pedicure, while my feet were still in the basin. The cuticle pusher fell on the ground during the pedicure and, rather than getting a clean one, she picked it up and went right back to pushing back my cuticle, without even wiping it off. I'm a slight germaphobe so this was alarming. Other than those two issues, the overall pedicure was fantastic. The hot stone massage was wonderful and she was very kind when I asked her to take the polish all the way to the edges of the nails. read more

Venus Nail Spa - Gel pedicure - three days later. - Nail Salons Near Me - Los Gatos, California

A great place to go to if you're worried about Covid restriction. They have guards in between each station. Overall great experience. Only reason why I took off a star is because the lady doing my nails rushed paining my toes. One of them came out noticeably bad and I asked her to fix it and she blamed my nail and said she cannot. The owner came in a fixed it for me. My advice is ask for her to do your nails! read more

DIP manicure! Is only 40!!!lasts over four weeks and does not chip!! only one salon in Los Gatos does this amazing new procedure! The dip manicure is so much better than gel or acrylic. It doesn't require any UV lights and the nail color is actually in the powder. I'm totally in love with this! ASK FOR EMILY and tell her I sent you! read more

I would give them 2.5 stars if I could. Came as a special treat for my girls. Brought my own nail polish, and top coat. Indicated I did not want any other polished used. So they proceed with manicures and i see the aesthetician start painting my kids nails with something other than the polish I brought. I reiterate I do not want that. Someone else indicates my wishes in another language. (There are only 4 customers. 3 are with me. One other person is there.) I indicated the request loudly. The other aesthetician finishes with my other child I ask for her to put the top coat I brought on my other child's nails. She says she already did. She used their own top coat after I requested them not to. She indicated in the affirmative, and goes to put it on her nails as a second coat! I say no, and ask that they redo the nails with the nail polish I brought. The aestheticians proceed to talk in a different language and giggle. Not a good experience. Will never return. read more

HELEN is very good! This is my new favorite place :) I will definitely come back. She made sure I was happy with the shape and did not rush at all. read more

My mom and I have been going to Venus for years & we love all the ladies who work there. Emily, the manager, is always very attentive and wants to make sure we leave happy. June is the gal you should go to if you get ingrown toe nails. Our gel pedicures never disappoint especially since they give a great massages. Today I got a dip manicure by Emily and I really loved the color she chose and the shape of my nails. I have always had great manicures and if I want something fixed they are eager to fix it and make sure I am pleased with my nails. read more
