    The high speed magic car that gets the hairs cut
    Chris L.

    8/24/24. $45 with a $5 tip. Haircut is complete with a new hot wheel car and a balloon. Ms. Karen is fantastic and made our kid feel comfortable. Even though our kid was terrified of the barber shop last time, there were some tears initially but Ms K made it all better. A little toy truck, a song, some old school Micky Mouse club (Brittney and JT!). She's an absolute sweetheart who gave a great haircut. More importantly was her ability to get the kids to chill out. All the one star review haters whining about poor hair cuts or tugging on hair read like helicopter parents who expect unicorns and lollipops for their little angel that defecates cinnamon rolls. Grow up. Ms K is cool as F. Also there's a

    We love Ms. Karen! I was cutting my son's hair myself until I did two really bad cuts when he started to get more hair. I took my son to Ms. Karen when he was around 18 months old. We gave him "the Beckham" and it turned out so cute!! She kept him happy and comfortable the whole time, there were no tears! Ms. Karen closed for a couple of weeks to move locations, so we tried someone else and the turnout was not the same at all. Ms. Karen has cut my son's hair 4 times and now my son looks forward to getting his hair cut, so he can get a balloon.

    We absolutely LOVE Ms Karen. She makes my daughter look beautiful and my daughter is comfortable the whole time. She asks to come back and see Ms Karen and was so upset when Ms Karen was out sick! Bring your kid here - you won't regret it.

    First haircut ‍ or young kids in general... I can't say enough great things about our experience today with Ms Karen in Lafayette for my son's first haircut. Literally everything you could ask for... car chair, Elmo on tv (she has multiple options), first haircut certificate, gives them a toy & a lollipop (if parents approve) plus an awesome job on his wavy hair. Best of all... I called last week & got an appt this week! I called Ponytails in p hill a month ago & her next opening was in July

    First hair cut with a lovely hairstyle for my daughter. We both loved it!

    Ms karen place is so cute! She made it a very fun and comfortable for my daughter. She puts a lot of attention toward the kids experience. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does! Her new place is super clean and adorable. Karen moved to a new location in Walnut Creek with parking right in front. The place was very easy to find and right off of the north main exit. My daughter and I will absolutely be back! Loved it!

    It was my kids' first time at Ms Karen's place and the kids were ecstatic with their new haircuts! Ms Karen takes pride in her work including Covid screening for precautions. I'm in awe that my 2 year old stayed in place as there were clever distractions for him during the haircut process. He received a first haircut certificate with photo which is a priceless keepsake. My older daughter also got her haircut afterwards and loved how fancy she looked! Thanks so much Ms Karen for your amazing work, patience and professionalism!

I was looking for a stylist to give me a long pixie, with an undercut with highlights. When I called Aalon Avalon, they squeezed me into a slot that was open same day. When I got there, and their Master Stylist was able to review and get an idea of the style and color I was asking for . He was very thorough and able to explain in detail how they were going to style me and told me they have an opening I. 45 minutes. . Specialty cut and color can take about three to four hours for the coloring part to get the right color and based I. What was explained to me, I was pretty confident that they were really going to do an amazing job with my help. When I got back, I was late for the appointment but they didn't sweat me, since they just got done with the previous customer and needed to set up the station. When my stylist was ready, she was very sweet and really took care of me to make sure I get the cut and style I requested. The vibe of the salon was very personable and easy going. I really enjoyed the time care she put in to working. When she completed my hair, it looked exactly as I wanted. It was like 20 pounds was chopped off my head If you're looking for a good salon that is really proficient with specialty cuts, this is the place to go. Thank you, Salon Avalon for the time, patience and care you put into me and my hair.

    If you're looking for a color master for your hair, look no further than Sari at Salon Avalon. He…read moreis truly the best and has a really good eye for color and style. Because I have had bleached hair (as an Asian) for a while, I have visited several hair salons for color and he is definitely the best, has an eye for colors that would pair well with your face, passionate about his craft, and takes a lot of pride in his work. I can't imagine someone being unhappy with the results. He even has a lot of before and after photos in his phone, where you can see a lot of really cool color jobs that he has done, in case you don't believe me. Everyone was very sweet and the salon was nice and clean! I would recommend Sari again!
