I was a bit hesitant to go and get my mani/pedi but with Mother's Day celebration coming up and almost 2 months of unkept nails, I had to go and get it done. More than anything, I wanted to see how nail salons were changing and adapting due to Covid-19. I was happy to receive a confirmation text that explained the precautions they were taking and what I was to expect during my visit as a client; this put me quite se ease. They told me to have a mask on and wait in my car until they texted me to let me know my technician was ready. I'm glad I remembered my mask! I noticed that clients weren't allowed to touch nail polishes, you would point to bottle and technician would take bottles and place them at your service station. The no touching anything made me very happy. That means they are being extra cautious. My technician was also wearing gloves, a mask, and shield during the whole service. It seemed uncomfortable but definitely necessary. I was very happy with my service overall. Brenda, my nail technician was very attentive and thorough. There was a mis communication, I had booked time for a mani/pedi and told them I'd need extra time because of the condition of my nails but I was only scheduled for pedi. As soon as Brenda made them aware of the situation they did re-arrange the schedule and gave me extra time. I paid 80.00 dollars for my service and I was very pleased. Good service takes time, care, and extra attention. These ladies know how to take care of you. La Posada Spa offers CND products which I learned from my regular nail expert Michelle at Pewter Nails in Reno are the best. Thank you Brenda and thank you La Posada Spa. I will see you all again when I'm back in the area. read more

Will book again! I got my mom a spa package. (Perfect Escape) She cannot stop raving about it. She loved it. She said the provider was attentive and very welcoming. The facial made her feel so youthful and confident. The massage relieved stress around her muscles and bones. Thank you for making my mom's birthday gift memorable! read more

I'm posting this review on behalf of my mom. She's in her 60s and has a hard time fixing her eyebrows; after much deliberation, she decided to get micro blading done here. She had a consult and paid a few hundred bucks for the procedure. She requested a natural look...nothing like the "fleeky" eyebrows that are trending now. After having two sessions done (the second to really perfect the look, we were told) and a couple of months later, her eyebrows look like they've been sloppily colored in with a brow pencil. It makes me so upset that she went through the expense and discomfort of microblading only to have downright crappy results. read more

I was looking forward to the detox massage and I was completely disappointed.. I was under the steam canopy with no steam for at least 10 mins and letting the girl know and she didn't do much about it until I finally complained. I got no steam for at least 20 mins. Then the suppose 50 min Swedish massage was rushed. . She never asked for any areas of concern so I told her. . Instead of a massage I got lotion rubbed and elbowed on my back. This is not my first massage and for the price I was expecting at least a decent massage after the trouble with the steam canopy. It was my first time at Spa La Posada and definitely my last one. read more

I love coming into Spa La Posada for all of their services! My husband started getting his hair cut here by Daniela, and he loves how she keeps record in her own personal notebook of how he likes his haircut. I decided to get my hair cut by her too since it was half a year since my last trim, and she did a lovely job, and gave me recommendations of products that would work for my hair type without pressuring me to buy anything. I decided to try out their neck and shoulder massage by Melissa, and am now sold on getting monthly massages here! Melissa is very friendly, and loves to get to know her clients, and she is a wonderful masseuse, and makes sure to get very deep into the muscles, which is wonderful since I work in dentistry, and sometimes have to contort my body for my patients! I really love the atmosphere of this spa, and the majority of their prices are fair. My massage was $50, and for a lady's trim is $15. I'm excited to try the other services soon! read more

This is an excellent spa that caterers to anyone looking for a luxurious experience. With that said it's pricing can be a tad excessive. However, the overall experience is worth it every other month! read more

I asked to use the restroom and was told I would need to be a client even though I was about to purchase a dress from their boutique. The dress was $256 and I thought I was considered a client but I was not so I left the dress and took my money and business. read more

Such an amazing experience! I received a pedicure, facial & massage everyone was so friendly and made me feel comfortable. A perfect spot for pampering & relaxation! read more

This review is specifically for the McAllen location. I have been to places in Los Angeles and Dallas for a professional massage (Massage Envy and Hand & Stone) and Leslie here at Spa La Posada is by far the best masseuse I've ever had. She will find knots in places you didn't even know you had them, she has also told me once where she feels tension and provided me with some at-home remedies to help ease it. There have been times I was so relaxed I almost fell asleep - lol! The front desk staff are always so kind and helpful. If you get there early (or want to check out after your spa services), their boutique, Leona, is always a treat to browse around and has incredible in-season styles. Spa La Posada never disappoints! read more

Great place, super friendly staff, and finally I found a place and a stylist that specializes in curly hair!! DevaCurl certified as well as DevaCurl products. read more

Went in today with my daughter to get a manicure and pedicure. We didn't get the full service as specified in the website. Once the nail polish dried, it looked like a c hold had done. Not worth for the price we paid. read more

Spa La Posada - The pedicure - Hair Salons Near Me - McAllen, Texas

See all

I got a haircut from Alyssa, who is supposed to be a specialist in cutting curly hair. It's so hard to find someone who knows how to cut curly hair, so I was really excited to go to her, and was hoping I'd have a long-term stylist. Unfortunately my experience with her was terrible. This is the first bad review I've ever left for a stylist, but I feel that other people with curly hair who are considering going to her should know what they're getting into. I asked Alyssa to give me a DevaCut, but not take too much off the length, since I've been growing my hair out for years now with the help of DevaCut specialists in other cities. For reference, I've been getting DevaCuts for 5 years now, and while some stylists haven't been great, they've never been bad: at most, my hair grows out badly after a few months. But, the haircut Alyssa gave me was TERRIBLE. She cut off at least 5 inches of my hair - again, which I've been growing for years - and added EXTREMELY bad layers that look like shelves. I'm really disappointed, and hope that other people with curly hair think twice before going to her, or avoid going to her altogether. read more

First, the good news, and only reason SLP gets a second star. I called as a new customer during the holidays when all other spas were completely booked and they not only fit me in, but did so politely. I went in for my shellac manicure and was very satisfied. Running a little late, but the manicurist wasn't rough at all and the application lasted a solid 10 days (a record for me). So, I talked the place up to my mom as an alternative to other better known (and pricier) spas that she frequents, and even bought her a shellac so she could go try it out herself. What a disaster. Not only were they running way behind again, but the application was awful. The manicurist (a different one than mine) scratched one of her nails in the process and refused to redo it. I had to call to have it corrected and the service quickly turned sour. The attendant interrogated me, and then curtly said that they could only fix it the very next day at a certain time or not at all. My mom was so bothered by the whole experience that she didn't even want to go back for the correction. Fine place in a pinch, but proper customer service is worth the few dollars more at other spas. read more

I recently went back to get a massage with woman named Christine and wow. All I am going to say was being my first time getting a massage, I tried my hardest not to fall asleep, ONLY because I knew if I fell asleep...I wasn't going to wake up anytime soon. ha! When you walk into the room you will find it dimly lit, with the "calm meditation" music playing on pandora...and a small little water fountain on Christine's desk. She then tells you exactly what she was going to do and for how long; in this case a full body massage and 50 minutes. Then she tells you about the aroma therapy lotions to pick from and i choose "stress reliever," for obvious reasons. She was delightful and extremely sweet! I am definitely planning on going back. The only reason I didn't give it 5 starts is because even though it was a pleasant experience, I want to try out other spas. :) read more

This location has great customer service. The place itself is very welcoming and peaceful. I got a facial done by Italia, she is the best! It was my very first facial ever, she walked me through everything and answered any questions I had. My service was very relaxing, I enjoyed every minute of it. Since it was my first facial ever, she recommended the Ultimate Spa Facial and let me tell you it didn't disappoint! If you are new to facials this is a great service to get you started. read more

I really like this place. The waxing is cheap and the job is done well. I was very satisfied with my eyebrow and leg wax. This place is also a small boutique filled with nice and unique tops, dresses, and jewelry. I love having the option of browsing while waiting for my appointment to come up. The dresses are especially cute and different from what you'd get at a department store. Will return. read more

I love this place, wonderful people, great service, always trying to help. I use the massage services and barber shop. Can't say enough good things about Spa La Posada. -Sonny read more

I have been wanting to come here for a while. I was able to get an appointment very last minute- as in 30 min before! It's very nice walking in. I really enjoyed my manicure & pedicure. Ana did an amazing job and I will definitely be going back! I hadn't had a mani/pedi in years so you can just imagine the state of ugly my feet and hands were in! My feet are no longer cracked and feel so soft! My manicure also came out very nice! My appointment was at 5:15 & I was done by 7. I thought it was a perfect amount of time & there was no rushing. It was a very nice first experience. read more

Spa La Posada - Powder My Nose- I believe is the name of this shade in Shellac. Very professional/elegant shade! - Hair Salons Near Me - McAllen, Texas

I have been coming to Spa La Posada in McAllen for several years now for services such as facials, pedicures, manicures, and numerous brow clean-ups. The facials have been ok, the manicures are good, and the spa pedicures and brow clean-ups are the best. My last service was the Ultimate Spa Pedicure. Lately I have stopped arriving early because the appointments usually start 10-20 minutes late. This last pedicure only started 8 minutes late but the pedicure lasted approximately 59 minutes instead of the 55 minutes indicated on the brochure. I enjoyed those extra few minutes and was glad the 8 minutes were not taken out of my pedicure time. My pedicure did not disappoint and started off with a soak in the foot spa, included a foot scrub that left my feet glowing, and ended with a softening paraffin treatment. My toe nails were filed to perfection and the final color was applied beautifully. I got my pedicure almost 3 weeks ago and my feet still look great. My one complaint for the pedicure is the chairs. I'm only 5'6 and I can't sit comfortably In the chair because I can't adjust for height. I can lean back and this has helped a little. I still make it work because I really enjoy the pedicure. If I was only rating the service, I would have given a 4-5 star rating, but the whole experience has to be taken into consideration. I still don't like having to wait so long for a simple service like a brow cleanup and absolutely can't stand having to wait past my appointment time for a service that is way more expensive, like my pedicures. I understand running a little past the appointment sometimes but it's been past due every single time, no matter what day of the week I go. Keep in mind that the spa services are also double what you would pay in a regular place. Please work on the appointment start times! read more

Today was my first time here and I absolutely loved it!! I had seen a picture of the work that Christian did here in yelp and decided to go in and give him a try. Ladies and gentleman if you are looking for a professional to color your hair then I highly recommend you to request Christian. He is friendly and definitely knows what he is doing. He listened to me before he did anything and he was kind enough to tell me the prices of the devices before he started working. I appreciated that so very much. My color looks natural and just what I asked for. My hair came out amazing and I will be continuing to go to Christian. Love this place and the staff was so friendly and welcoming. read more

I recently had a massage with Christine Jackson and she was absolutely amazing!!! I have travelled around and had the opoportunity to go to many many spas and try a variety of massage therapists and massages. Christine is by far the best massage I have ever had. Christine knows exactly what she is doing and is very knowledgeable about muscles and how to work them properly so that I was able to relax and feel revitalized. I HIGHLY recommend Christine Jackson for your next massage!!! read more

I returned to Spa La Posada last week for eyebrow waxing. Felicia can always take my eyebrows from frightening to fantastic. She is excellent at shaping the brows and always remembers I have sensitive skin and thus is "extra gentle." Love this place! read more

Too expensive for what it is, I've had better mani/pedis for less the price. It wasn't done with great detail, and it felt rush; also technician wasn't too friendly, very serious didn't seem to care for having a conversation. It wasn't the worse I've just had better for better price (it was like 80 for a regular mani/pedi, not even a good massage or scrub). read more

I went in for waxing for the first time in McAllen for my brows, and Felicia made me feel very comfortable. Also, with me being so pale she knew exactly what to do to reduce the redness and gave me solutions for further care the same day. If it is your first time doing a wax, definitely come in and see Felicia, she's GREAT! For hair, I have very curly thick red hair and I was given a DevaCut but Alyssa.. it is Amazing! She gave life back to my curls and can't wait to see her again for a trim to spruce it up again! There is now also products for curly hair that are awesome and she will let you know which ones are best suited for your hair. Call today to see about a free consultation!! read more

Spa La Posada - Makeup by Spa la Posada - Hair Salons Near Me - McAllen, Texas

Worst customer service. Front desk receptionist is very rude and can careless about the customer.

Very disappointed! Booked appts for my son's wedding. They were VERY slow; they did not listen to what we wanted done to our hair. The makeup was so-so. Fortunately, the bride was happy with her hair - despite the 2+ hours it took each of us to complete hair ... Stylists / make-up people were very friendly and nice, but .. If you are looking for special event hair/make-up, you probably want to look elsewhere. read more

Just enjoyed a 50 minute Swedish massage with Chris! She's excellent and I could sense she just absolutely loves her job. I just massaged quite often. Chris' technique, eagerness to ask questions ahead and follow through and overall calm demeanor really bought the experience full circle. The massage was a gift from a friend. I'm going got gift myself a massage again in two months. I made a follow-up appointment with Chris before leaving. Excellent! read more

Received a massage a few weeks back. Exactly what I had planned it to be. Had a great 50 minute massage but wish I had gotten the 80 minute after it was all said and done. Great service. read more

Sent my 12 year old in for "The Princess". During the Manicure/Pedicure Astrid neglected to let the polish dry before having her change for her facial. Subsequently, her toes were smeared badly, missing sections of polish and surface of nails got all lumpy. Also, there was polish left all over the edges of her skin where she painted skin and didnt remove polish, very sloppy! Neither the stylist or management cared about fixing anything. Acted totally unprofessional. They should have fixed it right then and there. Instead, they told us to come back in hour and a half!!! RUDE!! Think twice before you book here. Not very "taken care of you" place. Very low brow mentality.There are many better options out there than this place! read more

Love getting my haircuts and massages here. Excellent service and you can conveniently make appointments online.

Spa La Posada is the best spa in the Rio Grande Valley. No matter where you've had a massage, getting one from Chris at Spa La Posada will be the best massage you've received. I've had facials here and manicures and pedicures, and they all turn out fantastic. Enjoy a drink while you're getting one too! An elegant, friendly place: I highly recommend it. read more

Just had a massage with Christine Jackson. Wow! I loved the cupping procedure that she did with the massage. I feel so relaxed and I can feel the blood flowing in my tissues.
