Veda Nails & Spa

I was under the impression that a lady was going to attend me right away but she only put on my tips and attended another customer. She told me if it was okay to wait and I said yes thinking she would be quick. I have been waiting for more than 30 minutes. All the while she worked on a full set on someone else. They give you water. But this is too long.

Went in needing a quick pedicure before an event. They got me in quickly, had a great selection of colors, were very sanitary and inviting. Great experience!

First time here on Sunday and I loved the great service. They welcomed me right away. They even gave me a small bottle of water. The ladies here are so gentle and they take their time with you. My pedi and mani turned out amazing. Plenty of colors to choose from. Highly recommended. I know I will be going back.

I got my eyebrows waxed here yesterday… I decided to try something new instead of my usual place and this was a huge mistake that I now have to pay for. I learned my lesson!
My eyebrows are a pretty natural shape and I just need them cleaned up now and then between tweezing, so I told her to just clean up the bottoms and also that I have sensitive skin so to use minimal wax or I will get a rash. She said she understood and she would do that. I was really surprised how quick it was. When she handed me the mirror, I didn’t even take it from her hand. I just layed there in horror at my botched eyebrows. I started whispering to her that she waxed them off and that’s not what I asked for and she immediately got defensive and upset with me, and telling me I told her to do that. She even took the dirty strips out of the trash to show them to me and told me it was my fault.
I paid $ 10 and went to my car, After looking at them for a few minutes, I decided to go back in and explain that I was upset and wanted a refund. I was trying to be quiet because the room is really small and there were other ladies getting their nails done, but it inevitably caused a scene… long story short, the lady who waxed me started yelling at me in front of the other customers, calling me a liar, told me it was my fault, she even told me «ask any of these people in here this is how you looked when you came in here» and that «they all saw me and know I’m a liar». I was horrified and humiliated.
I basically had to demand a refund and I left feeling so awful about the whole experience. When I came on here to review it, I saw another girl had the same exact experience, so listen to us ladies! Don’t get waxed here unless you want tiny tadpole shaped brows that you have to fill in for the next 6 months.

First time was a great experience got my gel mani and they did an amazing job. Even though it was expensive then usual I gave it a try and love it. Second visit which was on Wednesday this week by Vicy had a horrible experience by the 2^nd day they started chipping. So I called in and spoke with Tina and l let her know they had chipped within the 2^nd day for getting the gel mani. So she asked to go in and get then fixed. So I go in thinking someone else will fix them turns out Vicy again was going to do them. So I let her and the next day aging they chipped. Horrible experience once again. For sure never going back to this nail salon again.

Asthenosphere and aesthetics wise 4 star. Price with the quality 2 stars. I didn’t want to paint my toes and didn’t get a hand massage (my choice) so it’s not like there was a crunch for time but the quality is horrible. We paid $ 119 plus tip for two pedi and two mani. Which I’m totally fine with but they didn’t do a good job for this price. Example: in Los Gatos there would have been more services and better quality at this price! Not just paraffin wax, clay and hot towels!

Jenny did my nails all pretty. Just regular mani and pedi for $ 40. More expensive than normal but it’s nice inside and the ladies are nice. The place is relaxing with music and free tea or lemonade.

I have very mixed reviews about this place. I think it’s a little pricey for what it is, come on this is Gilroy not Palo Alto. I think $ 45 for a set is very expensive and my pedicure was $ 40, also got a wax for $ 45. That is ridiculous to me. For that price though I did get nice nails and pedicure that lasted over a month. The salon is very nice inside. This might be a nice splurge type place as I was down $ 130, seems like a lot. They are all very nice and I noticed the owner keeps up on her team and nixes rude behavior. She would not let them jibber jabber in Vietnamese like other shops.

I have been going to Veda for several months now and I always look forward to my little indulgence when I go. Tina is always extremely friendly and accommodating. I regularly see Jenny for pedicures and enjoy her foot massages! (And I agree with a bunch of the reviews below, May is awesome!) the ladies are friendly and happy to work with you to make sure your nails look perfect. The nail spa is super clean and has a great atmosphere, ideal for relaxation in a foot spa. Most recently Vicky did my acrylic fill and a fun candy cane inspired design.

Favorite place in Gilroy for Nails and Waxing! May is wonderful, very attentive, detail oriented, faster than you’d expect, incredibly knowledgable about beauty and healthcare for skin. She does great work and Very relaxing. Sometimes I pop in to see if she has time or I call ahead. She lets me know if she can complete the services or schedule a time when they can accommodate, which is nice having the option to go elsewhere if I can’t wait. They have stayed open late to accommodate a long hard day or even just an important event (which goes above and beyond, I would never ask her to).

The ladies here do my moms nails and they always look great so I went here to have mine done for my wedding. I had a full set put on and they are beautiful. When I went to get my pedicure done, Tina surprised me with gorgeous flowers to congratulate me on my upcoming wedding. I felt so special and that they really went out of their way to make it a memorable experience. Teresa gave me an amazing pedicure (no rushing through the massage part!) and they look awesome! Now I’m totally ready for my wedding! Would recommend this shop for anyone who is looking to get pampered :)

I try not to write bad reviews I honestly don’t like to but my mind was changed after this horrible experience! My eyebrows are really easy to shape and I was very specific in my consultation even showing a picture of my own eye brows and how I like them! After this experience I realize I need to stick to my usual eye brow artist! I was in a pinch and didn’t plan properly and now for the first time can say this was a horrible mistake and experience! I don’t mind spending money on a good job but my eyebrows are going to take a while to grow back fully after this… she took of so much on the ends and left it super thick in front basically my eye brows are now Asymmetrical !! I have to pencil them in daily now because I have to correct the shape so there the same! I wasn’t going to write this review because Tina refunded me then she let her employee speak with me on the phone about this! I believe it was her sister who also works there! (Not sure what her name was though). Well that was fine with me until she accused me of lying and began yelling at me and I had to try and deafened my self on why I was unhappy and why I deserved my money back! By the way the pictures are proof I’m not lying my eye brows are completely a mess and now every day I have to fix them until they completely grow back! Really bad customer service here and lack of humility admit when you mess up and I have no problem walking away without posting a review! We all mess up at times it’s how we treat our clients that matters! The proof is in my now goofy eye brows that something went wrong. So in closing I will not return here again I felt extremely disrespected, and on top of this had a family wedding that day! She had no empathy for her mistake and admitting she messed up she instead blamed me! And I had to go spend money to have someone help me find Makup to cover this up! Let’s hope my eyebrows grown in fast…

I moved to Gilroy about two years ago so I had to look for a new nail spa. I started going to the one in Wal-​Mart because it was cheap and fairly good since I was still in high school. However I came across this place last summer and I have because a regular here. Its clean, sanitary, and relaxing. I’ve only gotten my nails done by Tina and she is amazing. I told her the first time to be gentle and she listened without any fuse. She does exactly what I want and is a perfectionist which I appreciate. Never been disappointed with this place, definitely a great place.

I love this place! I go here for my pedis and to get the acrylics done. I go to Tina always! She’s amazing. This salon is so CLEAN, and professional.

Very expensive place. Eyebrows waxed $ 12.usually pay $ 7 to $ 8. Job wasn’t even done right had to tell them They missed some hairs, which was so noticeable. Hello.

I got a gel manicure and deluxe pedicure from May. I love this place: no TVs, relaxing atmosphere, the ladies are very nice and attentive, and they make sure you’re comfortable. This salon is well thought out, from the quiet music and low lighting, to the water w/​lemon to drink (in a cup with a lid and straw!). I will be back for sure, and I will ask for May again…

I loved this salon. Tina is awesome and welcoming. It started off really strong. The spa is clean and the packages are reasonably priced for the service. This is NOT your typical nail salon, it’s a nail spa. There is a Big difference between the two.
Unfortunately, there seems to be an issue with turnover in staff. I was a regular, but stopped going because the staff that took pride in their work are now gone. Rachel does not put a high value on her quality of work and I keep getting stuck with her. So, I stopped going. 100% of the time I get gel by Rachel, it peels within 48 hours. (That’s not product, that’s caused by a tech who rushes.) After three tries with her, I’m done. Her work ethic is not aligned with the vision for the spa, as explained by Tina, the owner. Rachel works like a high volume nail tech… similar to the experience one receives at a $ 20 salon.
Noteworthy techs include May and/​or Lily. I heard Lily is no longer there. I think there was a guy name Tom who was also on point.
I would recommend this place to others, I just prefer not to interact with the one tech and she works on the days I am free to visit.

I love this place! I live in Hayward (East Bay), but my boyfriend lives in Gilroy. I randomly tried this place and it’s such a gem! I even like it better than my nail place at home. Every single person in there is so friendly and is so good at their job! Wish I had the money to be in there every week.
I’ve gotten my nails, toes, and eyebrows done here and each time has been great.

This salon is amazing! I’m immediately greeted at the door every time and helped to choose how I’d like my nails. The employees here are so friendly and do a perfect job. They offer hot tea and other drinks while you enjoy your visit. It’s calm and relaxing to be in the salon with the soothing music and luxurious feel.
The prices are a bit expensive, but it’s for a reason. The girls are great at what they do and do it well.
I definitely recommend this salon for anybody who wants to get away from the loud, full nail salons and go to a quiet relaxing spot to spoil yourself.
I can’t wait to go back and try a spa pedicure!

The BEST! If I could give more than 5 stars-​I would give 10 plus! They are professional; the shop is immaculate; the staff is warm and really know how to make the customer feel welcome. The owner, Tina, is very kind and interested in her customers. May, a wonderful person, made my pedicure experience the best. She really knows what she’s doing and does it perfectly. I will definitely return. Thank you, Tina and May.
Fondly, Stephanie
