About

SugarCoat Nail Bar sits at 1547 Meridian Ave. in San Jose. Its menu covers nail care for adults and children, artificial nail sets and fills, eyelash extensions, facials, waxing and brow lamination.

The salon says it was founded on the idea that a business grows through first-class customer service and quality work rather than through high client volume.

Manicures and pedicures are grouped into classic, spa, gel and organic options. Spa services pair a soak or scrub with a hand or foot treatment and a hot stone massage, and the higher-priced versions add steps such as paraffin wraps, collagen masks, a heel treatment or a longer massage. Most of the spa services can also be done with gel polish for an additional fee.

The salon welcomes walk-ins, though appointments are recommended. Gift certificates are available, and bridal showers and birthday parties can be hosted on site with a reservation. The salon is open seven days a week, with shorter hours on Saturday and Sunday.

The salon says its work is built on customer service and quality rather than volume.
