Coconut Nail Bar - San Jose, California

M P.

The nail salon I originally went to was closed and I only had time today, so I searched Google and made a reservation last weekend. According to reviews, they were the best last year but are no longer there. The owner has changed and the detail is surprisingly poor.

Oh my...I wanted gradient nails and she just applied them with her fingers instead of a brush. The second picture is the one I showed her.

I don't understand why there are discontinue discounts. Don't expect anything. This nail service is below average. Absolutely not recommended.

It started peeling off little by little the next day, and last night, 5 days later, all the gel came off.
Because the gel ran out after 5 days, I went to the nail salon again today and received a deep French style service instead of a gradient one. She had a hard time drawing circles, but I think this was for the best.
At least it feels a lot better.

I had a great experience at Coconut Nail Bar! I walked in for a manicure and pedicure and I very happy with the service. The place is clean and well appointed and the staff is friendly and professional. They offer a rewards card for recurrent guests!

Absolutely love this place. I have been 3 times. Once for a pedicure and twice for a manicure (dip nails). Everyone is so friendly and very professional. The hours are also super flexible. Will definitely be going back. Currently sporting this pastel green “glow” color that glows in the dark!

I made the split second decision to go to the coconut nail bar today before my meeting. Even though I was a walk-in they took me in very quick!

Cristina did my acrylic removal and pink/white ombré dip powder service and Jenny did my pedicure.

I haven't had a pedicure in a while due to schedule but Jenny did wonders with getting off all the dead skin and making my feet presentable again. When I wasn't sure if the color I picked suited, she offered to let me pick another which was very sweet. Jenny is very meticulous with her color application and with making sure that any hangnails are removed.

My acrylics were removed very gently and with great care - allowing me to preserve the nail growth beneath.

Even though they were a little on the shorter side, Cristina got me that almond shape I was looking for. She was also very careful, making sure the application was done right and double-checking to make sure everything was to my satisfaction. The one small thing I mentioned was taken care of quickly and without fuss.

Cristina also did an amazing job on my eyebrows.

Overall, I loved the fun vibe here. The music was upbeat, everything was clean, and Jenny and Cristina were both so friendly and conversational. Would go again

T, Christina and Sophie are an amazing team. It is the first time I visit. I came in for a pedicure and ended up getting mani, pedi, wax and 30 minute mini facial. Christina’s facial technique is super relaxing and caring. T did a beautiful pedi definitely great skills. Sophie is very welcoming in the front. Clean, peaceful environment. I highly recommend them.

I really tried to like this place but each time I’ve gone back it’s just been worse. The owner is money hungry and rushes through the service when another customer walks in. The last time I was there she rushed my full set. Now this time, I asked for a pedi and mani when I walked in. She said I’ll be right with you so I sat down. I then saw her proceed to get the pedi chair ready. I stopped her and said I think I just want to get my mani because I don’t have time for pedi. She said it’s fine we will get it done. Another woman was working on my pedi while the owner worked on my mani. She’s removing my acrylics and then a customer walks in. The customer asks for her nails to be done and the owner says yes I’m done with hers now. She files my nails a bit and then leaves to attend the other customer. I made sure she was only going to charge me for removing my nails, I didn’t even finish my pedi because I was completely over the entire experience, paid and left. The fact that she would think it’s okay for a customer to walk out with their nails looking how mine do is beyond me. I left a picture in the photos as well for this review. As I was paying, the owner says you only had 40 minutes, I said no, I asked for mani and pedi when I walked in. She tried to blame me, when I never gave her a time limit and tried to say I never asked for a mani. I wish I can get my money back. Terrible place. Do not recommend.
