4 /5 Michelle Toni: I’ve been getting Russian manicures for about 4 years now in the city but wanted to try something in the suburbs to avoid driving into Chicago and feel slightly disappointed in the outcome of my manicure from studio boka. I don’t feel that my cuticles were cleaned up the way they usually are when being e-filed and the skin of my finger was filed in to pretty badly when shaping my nails. The top coat that was used was at the end of the bottle and seemed to have little crystals/residue in it and instead of switching bottles, it was still used on my hands so some of my nails feel textured. It seems, though, that my not-perfect experience is very unique since all of the other reviews with images don’t have either of these issues so I think I just got unlucky & I do think you will still have a much better and more long-lasting manicure here than a traditional salon. Just didn’t feel as thorough as my usual Russian manicures!
