I've been coming to Winchester for the past couple of years, and I can honestly say this place is about so much more than nails. There were times I walked in here when I was down, struggling, and honestly going through some of the hardest seasons of my life. What stood out to me was that I was never treated like just another customer. They never nickel and dimed me, never made me feel less than, and always treated me with genuine respect and kindness. Two years later, my life looks completely different. I have a job now, I'm rebuilding, and a big part of that encouragement came from the people here who believed in me and reminded me to keep going. That's what makes this place special. It's not just about getting your nails done. It's about the people behind the business. It's about having a place where you feel welcomed, valued, and cared about. You can find good nail shops anywhere, but finding people with heart is rare. Thank you for being part of my journey and for showing me kindness when I needed it most. read more

I've been coming here since I moved back last year and honestly, Tu is the reason I keep coming back. The first time I came in, she was so sweet and actually took the time to talk to me and make me feel comfortable. I never felt like I was just another customer coming in to spend money. She genuinely made me feel welcomed, and that meant a lot to me. And on top of that, she does such an amazing job on my nails! They always look so good and somehow last me forever. Everyone else here is seriously so nice too. I've always been treated with kindness and respect whenever I come in. You can really tell they care about their customers. The music is a vibe too! I just wish they got more recognition because they really deserve it. I'm so glad I found this place and Tu! read more

Trying to strengthen my natural nails so we did a light layer of builder gel this time. I have to have neutral nails for work, like this gorgeous nude chrome, but I've done so many other colorful and creative nail art. They really do it all--and they do it well! The owner Thu did this set. Bring a gf or two, you won't be disappointed:) + the vibe is very relaxing and safe! read more

It was Sunday afternoon, and I had some time to kill before my lunch plans and really needed a pedicure. I typically don't like going anywhere because decent service is so hard to find. One of my spots was closed on Sundays (which I didn't know) I was at Santana row and since kitchen nail bar had no openings, I walked over to Winchester nails. I was able to get seated right away which was really nice since I was on a time crunch. I was seated in a massage chair (yay!) and had a nice relaxing pedicure. I'm usually really nervous when they cut my cuticles out of fear of being cut but didn't have that problem here. Very happy I was able to get in and out without any worries. Had to leave a review for my great experience. The place DID feel clean when walking in :) read more

Winchester Nails - Nails done by Kim - Nail Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

Matched what I wanted, went on a weekday so there was only me. I asked and she delivered. The inside was spacious but you should wear a mask since you might inside all the plastic in the hair from the nail shaping. Person who did my nails was very detailed and I got the feeling that she was so into her job she forgot I exist sometimes cuz she only saw my hand but I liked that cuz I was tired and just wanted the job done. I had an inspiration pic but only wanted to change the bow color to matcha my birthday outfit which was red. The bow was done really well, I was super surprised. Idk how parking would go but I didn't see much parking but the place is worth visiting. read more

The first gel manicure I got was AMAZING, best manicure Ive ever gotten. The nail tech was very detailed and took her time to ensure everything was perfect Second visit, I had a different nail tech. She was nice, but messy during Gel application. I have gel on my skin in many areas. The application is also a bit lumpy. Bit disappointed read more

Greeted by Tu & was sat down right away as a walk-in for a last minute session. Tu was very accommodating & listened to what I wanted. Not only did she shape my nails the way I like, she asked many questions to ensure I was happy in the end. I requested my usual French tip - we did a nude powder for natural look with a narrow arch white French tip. Personally, my favorite French I had all year. Livy did my Peppermint manicure & also did a French on my toes. The service was overall welcoming & warm. Thank you to the Winchester staff for a nice experience. read more

Service was fast and professional. Tu has made such a welcoming environment and Kim did an amazing job on my pedicure

I was recommended here from a friend that has been coming for months. I originally went in to get a full acrylic set. After talking with Tu, she recommended I try Gel X. She broke down the price difference for me and took the time to explain the difference between the two. Tu took her time to soak and drill my old acrylics off (I've never had a tech not just rip them off with a tip). Great service and she was constantly asking if everything was okay. When I pointed something out, she was happy to fix it. I will definitely be coming to see Tu from now on! Best part about this review? It is genuine. I wanted to write this review, I wasn't requested to write it like I have been at so many other places! read more

The manicurists here are so kind and warm. I loved chatting with them and it felt like family. I'm just a little disappointed with the actual nail service. I asked for cuticle cleaning (extra $10) and was cut multiple times. Around 4 of my cuticles were cut way too deep and it hurt. Even though that happened, the manicurist was so nice that I tipped her well. I came home and realized my other hand had no top coat gel at all. I called her back and she was happy to redo it but I don't think I'd come back after all that hassle. Nice people but service could be better. read more

Came here for a fil. Tu helped me. I can back since the price was okay and affordable. I asked for a color change and Tu said she wasn't able to do a color change that it needed to be the same color, so I asked for them to be taken off and she insisted on just repairing my one nail that broke and doing a fill on all of them but when I asked for a color change she said she was not able to do it. I'm not sure why. She insisted on it being the same color as before ultimately I just got them taken off. It just felt like she wanted to charge more. Also area is in a sketchy area right next to AA center recommend go in the day time. I won't be coming back here. read more

Tu (the owner) is the best! I come to San Jose about once a month for work and a couple visits ago, I found Winchester Nails near where I was staying when I had some time to kill. I usually do my own gel x full set and then I'll visit a salon to get a gel pedicure. After getting an acrylic full set at Winchester Nails last month to switch it up, I decided I would try to teach myself to do my own acrylic nails at home. I tried for the first time the night before my flight to San Jose last week. It wasn't the best job but it honestly I think I did okayyyy (it is sooooo much harder than it seems). Still, it wasn't what I wanted to walk around with for 2-3 weeks. So obviously when I got to San Jose, I called over to Winchester Nails and made an appt. Tu was so sweet. I told her I did them myself and she was so nice about it lol. She was gentle when removing my first-time attempt and gave me a lot of tips along the way and encouraged me not to give up. She's been doing nails for a longggggg time and laid these acrylic nails down in no time to perfection. She created the shape so flawlessly, she barely had to file them down. Love coming here when I'm in town. Everyone is really nice and they really talk and try to connect with you, which is hugely underrated as a factor of quality customer service. Thank you, Tu! :) read more
