I've been doing my nails with Yara for over 3 years now, and I truly cannot imagine going to anyone else. She has completely set the standard so high. She is incredibly quick without ever compromising on quality. I'm always amazed at how efficient she is yet my nails come out absolutely perfect every single time. No one shapes nails the way she does. She understands balance, structure, and what suits your fingers individually. What I love most is how well she understands your style. She just gets you. She knows what colours will suit you, what shapes work best, and often suggests ideas that end up being even better than what I had in mind. The colour options are amazing so many beautiful choices every time. She's also such a friendly, warm person, which makes the whole experience even better. The Chocolate & Nails Northfield branch is calm and peaceful, so appointments always feel relaxing rather than rushed. Her speed, punctuality, and professionalism make life so much easier. On the rare occasion there's ever an issue (which hardly ever happens), she fixes it immediately and with no hesitation. Honestly, she's not just a nail technician she's an artist. Highly recommend 🤍

I'm so happy to have found Yara at Chocolate and Nails. I'd previously avoided having my nails done too often because I was keen to avoid the chemicals and really disliked the harsh acetone smell and overall feeling that usually comes with gel removal. Yara is brilliant because she removes gel manually with a buffer, which makes such a difference. My nails are now genuinely strong and healthy, and I can keep getting gel nails without the usual downsides of weakness or damage. They last almost perfectly for three weeks, which is amazing, and it's such an easy way to feel polished without having to do anything too elaborate. On top of that, Yara herself is just lovely. She has great energy, is so down to earth and friendly, and it honestly feels like a little slice of relaxation every time - especially with old Friends episodes on in the background. As a busy working mum, I genuinely look forward to my appointments. Thanks so much, Yara 🤍

I've been going to this nail salon regularly, and Yara is absolutely amazing! She's extremely skilled at cleaning, shaping, and painting my nails, and they always last for a very long time. The salon itself is beautiful, and the service Yara provides is truly exceptional. I highly recommend everyone to visit-she's the best!

Since I found this place a few years ago, I only come here to get my nails done. Yara is the best! I love her work and how quick she is, which is perfect for me since I usually come during my work break and have limited time. Highly recommended!

Every time I've gone to Yara (Northfields) with little inspo pictures of what I want, she's always honest, she'll warn me if it might not look exactly the same or let me know if something isn't possible. But the final result she delivers always goes above and beyond anything I imagined. Her skill, care and genuine love for nail art show in every detail. I have yet to leave an appointment without being stopped and asked where I got my nails done! Yara is truly exceptional.

Yara has been doing my nails for the best part of a year now and they always look fantastic. She is always able to execute what I'm looking for but better! All of her colour and style suggestions have been perfect! Not only is she technically fantastic, but she's always so smiley and kind. It's truly a high point of my day when I go and see her!
