Best Manicure/Pedicure
El Coco Aveda Salon
Mani/Pedi. It’s fun just to say, isn’t it? Try it a few times fast: mani/pedi, mani/pedi, mani/pedi. Phoenix readers’ favorite spot for — word of the day — a mani/pedi this year is the same as your chosen Faneuil Hall escape for a facial: EL COCO AVEDA. This spa oasis in the midst of Boston’s downtown hullabaloo has — in addition to an all-natural “Caribbean Treatment” (which includes exfoliation and a warm seaweed mask) — an all-encompassing selection of OPI nail polishes. OPI adds another element of fun to a mani/pedi, with its whimsical names for nail-polish shades, which function as mini-story-poems, or jumping-off points for creative-writing projects. Try “Overexposed in South Beach,” “You Don’t Know Jacques!”, “Charmed by a Snake,” or our favorite, “I’m Not Really a Waitress.”
