Lila Blum They do a good job. I came in at 7pm as a walk-in and they stayed late for me. HOWEVER, I feel a little swindled. I asked for a full set with a manicure because my cuticles were in bad shape. I only received full set service but they still charged me $15 for the manicure that I did not receive.

Hermione Acosta Very respectful and clean nail spa in McAllen. The nail technician that helped me today was very respectful (I believe their name was Justin) and did a good job at explaining every step and even gave me feedback on the nails I had on. Prices are ok but for the customer service, it was worth it.

Laura Soria If I could give this place zero stars, I would! I used to really like this place but it was recently sold out to different owners and they provide horrible service. They are obviously not prepared or ready to run it. I went a couple of days ago to get my shellac removed and changed for a different color. There were 5 ladies there and apparently only one of them was a nail tech. She seemed very young (probably high school age) and you could tell right away that I was probably one of her first clients. I tried to be patient but after 1 hour passed by and she was still trying to remove my shellac, I asked for somebody else to help. I had been smelling the acetone fumes for a long time and she was not even close to done. A lash tech had to step in and attempt to continue the job. A lash tech!!! I should’ve left after so many red flags but I needed my nails done for my sister wedding that night. Anyways, after more than an hour had passed by and they were not even close to taking off the shellac, the lady working on my nails hurt me pretty bad and I started bleeding. I stood up and left! Thankfully they didn’t charge me. Never going there again!! Please stay away from this place! Picture attached.

Mirella Trujillo I stopped here because my nail tech at my usual spot was booked today and I had an early birthday dinner and needed my toes and nails done before my dinner. There were only 2 nail techs here. When I walked in I mentioned I was needing a refill/ shellac and same color on my feet. The man who did my nails did a decent job but cut my nails too short, shorter than where I told him how short I wanted them. When people started to walk in he seemed to rush his work so he can get to the next person that was waiting. When he finished my nails I told him that I wanted to do the same color in my feet, I wasn’t getting a pedi just needed my color changed and nailed cut and filed. He said “can you wait , so I can help the lady that is waiting?” I honestly couldn’t believe he asked me to wait to start another job when what I needed wasn’t done. This place might have some potential if they would staff it properly so that you don’t have to ask people mid job to wait so you can start on someone else. It’s also pretty pricey for what i had done. So unless you have time to wait and the possibly be asked to wait mid work don’t come here.

Daisy Deleon Plz plz I beg you don’t ever come here the manager treated me horribly and yelled at me for being frustrated and I was there since 4 pm till 12 in the night waiting for service they over charged me for there mistake and called the cops on me for not wanting to pay 3 dollars they offered me as a complimentary drink I was told I would pay 120 then they wanted to charge me 138 for not liking my nails

Michelle Williams To be honest it was a great experience but a 35$ up charge is crazy!!!! I was told 75 and I even heard them over talking saying it was gonna be 75 but when I went to pay and leave thinking I’d be paying 85,90 bucks with a good tip. It ended up being $110, for a regular long French tips.

Kayla White Very disappointed with how my nails turned out. I’m not usually one to complain but this was hard to overlook. My nails turned out lumpy, the whole area of some nails wasn’t covered properly, the shaping was awfully done, and overall the staff was unprofessional speaking poorly of each other and their clients as they walked through the door. I wouldn’t recommend coming here despite it being one of the only salons open late on a Sunday. You’ll just have to go spend another $80 to get your nails fixed somewhere else another day. This is not a well equipped salon. There were only 2 women working and a whole lot of clients waiting.

Rebecca Santana I was recommended The Glam Bar by my lash tech, for laser hair removal treatments. And all I have to say is I can’t believe it took me so long to actually stop by. I love it here it’s a one stop salon. The girls make you feel so welcomed,and the vibe is friendly. Aracely is awesome she explained the whole laser process. She makes you feel so comfortable and painless while doing the treatment. Saw immediate results after the first session. Aside from laser treatments, I’ve gotten serval pedicures with Lorena and she never disappoints, same could be said for Stephanie my husband loves her pedicures. I highly recommend Aracely and the girls at The Glam Bar !

JACQUELYNN LOPEZ I recently had my first laser hair removal session with Aracely, and it was fantastic! The clinic was clean and well-organized, and Aracely was both professional and friendly. She walked me through the process, making sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. Im excited for my follow-up appointment and highly recommend Aracely for anyone considering laser hair removal!

Clea Garza I had Kelsey and she did the best job on both my full set and my pedicure! I got a regular express pedicure, but I am very ticklish and she noticed and accommodated to that right away. For my full set I asked for a french tip with black instead of white and I can honestly say that this is the best set of nails I’ve ever received! She did exactly what I wanted and was very kind and gentle throughout the whole process! My mom came with me and got a regular mani/pedi as well and they look so amazing as well! 12/10!

k D I got a pedicure here and it was good the only thing is that I sense one nail more pink than the other one but I can live with it it was pretty relaxing and great service. For $55

Erin O Peter did an amazing job fixing another spas mistakes. He thinned, reshaped and held a great conversation the entire time. He wouldnt allow me to leave his chair until we were both happy, and hes such a great listener. His wife Jenni did a wonderful job finishing off his artwork. Thank you both! I was just in town for the night, but Ill be back if Im in town."Go Brewers"

Tanya Saenz I went to go get a pedicure and my hands with shellac and they left my nails crooked and the shellac was all bumpy I went back again for them to fix it , it still stayed the same. I went back the next day and the lady in the front was real rude I guess she was the receptionist I told her if they can fix my nails because I had wasted $100 plus tip and I am a very picky person about my nails and she said that it was just me that my nails were crooked and bumpy like that she was just with her attitude and I told her okay if yall are not going to fix it thats fine I will leave a review and I just wont ever come back over here and waste my money and she said okay thats fine. She needs to learn how to be more professional if theyre going to be having her as a receptionist at that nail salon.

Alicia Picon Very happy with the price & service. Elizabeth & Marse did a wonderful job on mine & my best friend’s nails. Helped us celebrate a special day with this set being my friends gender reveal set (done by Marse) The price was also very fair for acrylic!
5 /5
Monica A I hate leaving a negative review, but this is not the first time that my nails look horrible on the second day of having them done. Aside from that, some of the ladies that work there are always speaking negative of their clients, when people are leaving, they have something negative to say at times which I don’t think it’s very appropriate. My nails are literally peeling the day after getting them done and in the past when I go back to get something fixed I still get charged $10, I know it’s not much but why should someone pay for bad service?

Ali M I called twice and asked if they were still taking in clients and they said yes I get there and 2 workers start saying who’s turn it is and who should do my nails after they sat us down. Super unprofessional. The work was sloppy and the price was totally NOT WORTH $80 at all. I thought it was going to be $55 at most since it was such basic work, they were so short and the “French tips” are all messy and different lengths. You can see for yourselves. I feel robbed! Do not take clients when you don’t want to work anymore; this was the first and last time I’ll be going. 0/10 do not recommend.

Amanda Willson I have been coming here for 5 years and never had any issues, I enjoyed talking with the employees. However, ever since they changed ownership and got all new employees I haven’t liked it and now I just don’t plan to ever go back. I have always gotten shellac on my toes but now I can’t because the previous lady shaved my nail too much to where you could see dark pink through my nail and it’s too sensitive now to keep getting shallac until it grows out. Now after my most recent visit and declining shellac a few times her paint job was just atrocious.

ERI O First time at this place, stylists were attentive and made conversation. They weren’t on their phones, unlike other places I’ve been to. They were quick and efficient and they did a amazing job. I got a pedicure and my daughters got a manicure. They also responded very quickly via messages. This will be our nail place from now on. Thank you
5 /5
Elo Trevino The pedicure was not well done at all. I got a number two with Calus removal and was still left with some. She probably buffed it like twice. I asked for square nails, and she proceeded to round them. As for the change of color, she left them all lumpy. Staff is unprofessional as customers walk in and walk out. They proceeded to gossip about them loudly.

Albesa Salinas I had such a pretty overlay before and they really messed it up. I wouldnt recommend this place at all. Paid 50, for them to just mess up the shape of my nails. I ended up just taking them off and broke off my nails.

Alondra Oyervides They are a 10/10. I’m a very picky girl when it comes to getting my nails done. I get them every 2 weeks for almost majority of my life. Hermosa nails files my nails perfectly not thick like many places, so natural looking, the shape, the color range, very impressed. Also everyone there is so friendly. Their prices are fair. Compared to their surrounding competitors. Highly recommended. My new to-go to.

Lau U I Love Bonita Nails! Ive been going to this place for a few years now. The staff is very professional. They have a great color collection! I started getting dip powder nails and so far I love it, it claims to supply vitamins to your nails. It lasts about three weeks. I love the fact that I can just sit back and relax. Andy is awesome! His work is clean and perfect every time. Bonita Nails has a beautiful set up, very roomy, modern looking and relaxing.
