I’ve been going to Yarco Studios for almost a year and have always found the staff polite and talented, which made today’s experience disappointing. After removing my orange/coral polish, several nails on both feet were noticeably yellow, especially my big toes. Polish staining was never mentioned until I Googled it myself and brought it up. Only then was I told that reds and oranges can stain nails. The discoloration was limited to where the polish had been, while the new growth was clear. Initially, I was led to believe it could be a fungal issue from water getting under my nails and was told to see a doctor, which was alarming. I have no symptoms and clearly the yellow was only where the polish was and across several nails. I always dry my feet before I put shoes on. There was no explanation of why this happened, whether this particular shade was a factor, or how to prevent it in the future. When I asked about the color, I was simply told that people don’t really choose it. I’ve worn reds and corals at many other salons without this happening. I don’t blame anyone for the staining because it’s unclear what happened but all I know is regular nail polish has never stained my toes before. It was how the situation was handled. There also seemed to be more focus on whether I had signed previous documents than on helping me understand what happened. As a longtime customer, I expected a more informed and customer-focused response—recognizing staining as a possibility, explaining it, and offering guidance for preventing it in the future.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry that the situation made you feel concerned. Our intention was never to alarm you or to protect ourselves first. When our nail tech notices unusual discoloration, our policy is to be cautious, never make a medical diagnosis, and recommend consulting a doctor if there is any uncertainty. This is meant purely as care for our clients’ health and safety. We understand that there was likely a misunderstanding in how this was communicated, and we agree that possible staining from highly pigmented polish should have been explained more clearly. We truly value you as our longtime client and appreciate your feedback. It will help us communicate better in situations like this.

Had a great first experience at Yarco Studio with Daniela! I arrived about 10 minutes early for my appointment and barely had to wait we actually started a few minutes before my scheduled time. Daniela was friendly, professional, and took her time with my structured gel manicure. She also took before and after photos, which was a nice touch. I went with clear gel and a matte top coat, and I really liked how clean and natural the finished result looked. The studio itself was nice, comfortable, and organized. I can definitely see why appointments can fill up quickly. I also appreciated all the little extras at the end. They gave me a nail file and brush, aftercare information, hand cream, and cuticle oil to take home. Those details made the experience stand out compared with other nail studios I’ve tried. Great service and quality overall definitely recommend Daniela and Yarco Studio!

They charges very high price but they are not professional at all. I was shocked the one who was doing my nails was just a student and wasn’t a professional.

Exceptional service! My gel mani and express pedi turned out perfect. The staff is gentle, professional, and genuinely skilled. Plus, it’s the only salon in the Bay Area I've been to that actually prioritizes cleanliness. I'll definitely be back!

I love this place because my manicures always last so long. I go once every 4-5 weeks. Everyone is super friendly and accommodating as well. If your nails grow fast like mine and have been considering getting a Russian manicure, go here!
