3D gel nails
James T.

Brought my daughter here for a gel nail set and we are absolutely thrilled with the results. She wanted something cute and unique, and our manicurist, May, brought her vision to life perfectly. The pink floral accents, 3D bow, and pearl heart design are so detailed and beautifully done, like little works of art on each nail. The staff was so kind and patient, making her feel comfortable and special the entire time. The salon is spotless, welcoming, and clearly takes pride in both cleanliness and craftsmanship. My daughter has not stopped smiling or showing off her nails since we left. We will definitely be coming back for future special occasions and I highly recommend this salon for anyone looking for high-quality gel nail artistry. Thank you May!

I've been going to Tipsy Nail Bar for years! They are simply the best. With that said, my dipping manicure was something else this last time. It was top notch. The BEST dipping you could ever have. My nails are superb. I don't even know how to explain. May and everyone else are the best in the area. I wish I could share all of my feelings of how much I love them at Tipsy. Please go. They are awesome.

Bleeding nails

One of the worst nail experiences I've ever had. I stopped by this nail salon while my son was at a nearby summer math session. I noticed the place was unusually empty compared to the nail shop I usually go to, but decided to give it a try. I came in with acrylics and gel polish, and the technician recommended removing them and doing a new set. I've been getting acrylic nails for over 15 years, and I've never experienced such a painful removal process. The way she took off the acrylics was incredibly aggressive, and I started to feel a sharp pain. When I looked, I saw that two of my nails were bleeding because they had been filed down so thin. I immediately asked for the manager, who told me it was because my natural nails were thin--but I've never had my nails bleed before, no matter how thin they were. I left feeling super upset and really concerned about the risk of infection. They didn't end up charging me, but honestly, my nails are completely damaged. This is the first time I've ever written a review, but I felt the need to warn others so no one else has to go through what I did.

I've come to this salon multiple times over the last 4 yrs. I'm surprised I never wrote a review. The salon is very clean, and the pedicure chairs have a glass partition in between which is kinda nice, not gonna lie. They have a great selection of colors to choose from. Customer service has been exceptional each visit. They offer you a complimentary beverage when you arrive. Champagne please! The nail technicians do a great job. The massage for the pedicure is the best I've ever experienced. They don't skimp on the time. I look forward to my recharge when I'm at Tipsy Nail Bar.

I thought this place was nice, but after this time I got to come back and Update the review. I'm really sad to return back to such a depressing, rushing environment. I used to give this place 5 stars a couple of years back but now, I felt like the service was rushed and uncomfortable. I like that they're still trying to give you a gimmick of mimosa/champagne but it wasn't like it was the bang for your bucks, at the end of the day, I could careless. I didn't pick anyone in particular so the lady that was helping me out was rushing through filling my nails. My nail beds were clean and didn't have any polish on and I was also doing my toes, so I really don't get the point of rushing my nails. The First Lady who helped me out, filed it uneven. I understood that I already had short nails but if she was experienced enough, I feel like slowing down and checking if it's even would be nice. She never ask if I needed to fix my nails but I had to let her know, she did a sigh and I felt bad so I ended up saying sorry. She told me it's okay, she'd rather have me happy but her tone of voice and her rushing to do it tell me otherwise. And then she handed me off to another male staff. When the male staff came over, they were speaking something and then the male staff tried to make conversation which I understand he was trying to be nice; but then he asked me something, switched his attention to someone across the shop yelling in Vietnamese while I was answering his question; and then ended up giving me a dry fake laugh that was unnecessary because I knew I wasn't saying anything funny and was just answering his question. That whole situation was really awkward and it made me feel so insincere. If staffs are really tired and Want to stay quiet, they're probably better off doing that instead of forcing themselves to talk for a better tip. All in all other than the personal experience, my nails started peeling by day 3; which shouldn't happen because it is gel manicure.

Update on my nails! I initially put a 1 star because the lady who did my nails did not do a good job (hence the paragraph below) but I'm grateful they were persistent in me coming in and getting a redo for free. Thank you for your service! (Old post) Very annoyed at how they charged me $60 for a dipped nail pedicure and this only lasted a week! A girl named Lina did my nails, she's a nice girl but I'm very disappointed at the results I got. Do better Tipsy Nail Bar!

Black under layer and supposed to be chrome green on top but it looks mixed so I'm unsure.

I came on Thursday 10/5 and a male helped me. He was pleasant and asked if I wanted a drink. As for the nail quality it was about a 3.5 out of 5. There were a few imperfections due to rushing I believe. The shape and length are great but the color is not chrome green on top like I wanted. I didn't say anything because it was more green than any other color but it's not chrome green. The color is not even which make my nails look flat.( the filing as well) I did tip $20 but I always do for their time. Overall I would go back but try another nail tech because the pics on here are great and I do believe they can do better work than I received.

Clean salon, friendly service, beautiful nails…read more I don't live in the area but I had some time to burn and popped into this salon for a gel pedi and a regular mani.

I accompanied a client to this appointment, and when I politely asked for clarification, the main guy handling the transaction was rude, dismissive, and unnecessarily hostile. I was simply asking a straightforward question about the charges. Payment was still completed, and a tip was given at checkout, but that does not change the fact that asking a basic question was met with disrespect instead of a professional explanation. There is a clear difference between customer service and being spoken to in a condescending or hostile manner. Unfortunately, this interaction lacked basic professionalism and transparency regarding pricing. I hope this business improves how it communicates with and treats customers going forward. Response to Paul(Business Owner): My concern was never that a tip was added. My concern was that when I asked about the difference between the quoted price and the final total, I was not provided with a clear breakdown of the charges. The explanation regarding credit card fees and other charges is being provided now in your response, not in a way that was clearly communicated during checkout. Had the charges been explained transparently at the time, there would have been no confusion. I also stand by my statement regarding the interaction. Asking a reasonable question about a bill should not result in a customer feeling dismissed or spoken down to. Regardless of our differing recollections of the conversation, that was my experience. I appreciate your response, but the tone of both the interaction and your reply only reinforces my original concern. Customers should be treated with professionalism and respect, even when they are simply seeking clarification about charges.

After trying this salon out multiple with a different nail technician each time, I've fully decided…read moreto never come back to this salon for Russian manicure/pedicure or any other service for that matter. The nail tech was unfriendly and extremely rough with my cuticles. At one point when she burned me with the e-file, I pulled away and she told me "I'm too sensitive" instead of apologizing for being too aggressive. She even asked the receptionist in Russian to bring her a different e-file because according to my nail technician, I'm too sensitive. With so many other better Russian manicure salons in the Bay Area, this place is a hard no for me. Not only are the nail technicians rude, but the polish itself begins to lift after 2 weeks. Yarco should change their name to Yar-NO.

I finally…read morecleared my calendar which I almost never do and made an appointment at Yarco Nail Salon for some much-needed self-care. I accidentally showed up on the wrong Friday, and I was already so exhausted and overwhelmed, I cried. Yara, the owner, was incredibly kind and was full of empathy which we don't find anywhere these days. Instead of turning me away, she personally took care of me and did both my nails and pedicure. Her kindness meant more to me than she probably realized in that moment. And on top of that, she did an absolutely amazing job, I love my nails! The salon itself is beautiful, clean, and relaxing, with refreshments and snacks that make you feel taken care of from the moment you walk in. It's also conveniently located in the Cambrian/Los Gatos area. Thank you, Yara, for being so gracious and accommodating. Sometimes a little kindness goes such a long way. I highly recommend Yarco Nail Salon and will absolutely be coming back!

As for my gel manicure that started chipping and lifting much sooner than other salons :/ the customer service was nice though!

My go to nail technician was on vacation and I needed a fill badly. Thanks for the yelp community…read more I found Mahalo nail bar. I have seen in passing many times during my venture to Pruneyard. Making an appointment online was super easy. System was very efficient giving me a reminder of my appointment. Interior is very neat and clean, and every chair was full when I arrived. A large selection of polishes! All staff was very friendly, even if they were not the ones personally attending to you. I believe my technician may have been newer what seem to be an owner or definitely a senior technician was giving her instruction. On how payments and checkout were made. She did a wonderful job ! She was extremely gentle, and although she did not rush, everything was done rather quickly. The shaping was perfect and she took her time with the polish to make sure it was perfect. She kept referring to a picture I had shown her on shape . Even though I went in for a rather simple cat eye gel, it looked amazing. My only negative was that I did not leave with the fill that I had wanted, but I purely blame my miscommunication not knowing what gel builder was versus a gel set. I usually just let my regular tech do whatever all I knew it was gel. So I ended up with just gel builder on my regular nails, which were rather long. I had a broken nail by that evening, so going forward ,gel builder on natural nails would be just for a shorter nails not the length that I had. I'm not detracting the any stars or the service because it was impeccable. I blame the lack of communication on my part. I just wanted to throw it out there go knowing what you need! Lol. I highly recommend Mahalo nail bar definitely keeping them in my back pocket !

Even though I'd lived in the area for many years, I wasn't aware of such a nail spa right behind McDonald's on Los Gatos Blvd. I called ahead to make sure they're available before heading over. Good that I did. While I was there, they got a lot of phone calls, and they had to ask those customers to come in at a later time . There're only two ladies working there, and they said it's always a good idea to call as they couldn't predict how busy it would be. Decor and massage chairs were of older styles, but everything looked clean. Environment was relaxing and staff was nice. I had the $33 Classic Pedicure, which included a scrub, massage and hot stones. The technician did a pretty good job, and was very efficient. I was happy with the result. Would love the massage to be a little bit longer, but at this price point in Los Gatos, it was very fair and I had no complains. They took Zelle as well.
