| - I discovered Bobo's shortly after I moved into the neighbourhood and have mostly given up the much costlier manis and pedis at the "upscale" salons in Yorkville. Bobo's does an absolutely amazing job, at a fraction of the cost. Here, the girls are trained very, very well in nail care and polish application, and even paint the top edge of your nails to minimize chipping. The hand and foot massage that is included is not just a quick 30 seconds one that I noticed other salons do (and charge much more for) but is at least 4 minutes per limb.
It's a small place, and definitely nothing glamourous. But it's tastefully decorated and the staff are very, very friendly. They always make sure to ask you whether or not you want your calluses removed, what shape you want your nails, and how much foot filing you want to get done. The cooling foot and leg scrub is nice too.
As the other reviewer said, they do have an extensive collection of colours, and always has the newest OPI line of the season. I always bring in my own polish and they have no problems with that.
I mostly go here for manis and pedis, but have done the occasional hair removal treatment as well. Great job, very routine, and again, much, much cheaper.
So, in a nutshell, excellent services with long lasting, painted nails!
