I'm going to give another review to this truly wonderful nail salon or spa! My recent visit was…read moreFriday August 28th 2026 Like many I'm very busy on my feet all the time, working many hours, I know the importance of getting pedicures for my feet, and when I'm catering parties I always want a good manicure so my hands look good when I'm preparing & serving food. I will usually call at the last moment and Mia will always find time to fit me in , I don't mind when I show up and sometimes I might have to wait 10-15 minutes because the ladies are taking care of other customers, because I know after they are done with their customers I am going to receive an awesome mani~pedi & I wouldn't want someone hurrying up just to get to other customers, too me it's worth the wait. Sometimes I've called couldn't get seen when I've wanted to & have gone to a couple of different locations, though I truly can see and feel the difference in the quality & care of how my fingers & toes felt, so I normally make it a point to get into Beauty Zone Nail Spa, knowing that Mia, Pham or some of the other ladies will always give me a wonderful mani~ pedi to help keep my toes from being sore & my nails looking professional, If I could knock this place is, I wish there was music in the background or maybe something on the tv! The shop is clean & the staff is busy & efficient, I'm a very satisfied customer who will continue to support this business

My 60 minute massage with Muammer was absolutely fantastic. This appointment was my very first at…read moreSpavia but I get massages regularly at other establishments in the Walnut Creek/Lafayette area. After reading a bunch of reviews both on Yelp and Google, they seemed all over the place. It's a good thing I chose to ignore some of the feedback and gave Spavia a chance. Booking the appointment was really seamless. The front desk was friendly and helpful in providing information as well as suggesting some massage therapists who could be a good fit. I made a point to fill all my necessary forms ahead of time then ensured I arrived 15 minutes before my appointment (as they instruct) to get situated before my massage. The facilities at Spavia were nice, relaxing, and clean. They even provide neck warmers for you to put on in the waiting room before your treatment which was such a nice touch. The massage itself was amazing. Before my treatment started Muammer went through all of the requests from the intake form to ensure he understood my preferences. Throughout my massage he did check-ins for pressure and gave me a heads of on what he would work on next which made me feel super comfortable. I do a lot of traditional weight training and my muscle really need to be worked on. To say that Muammer kicked my behind in the best possible way is an understatement. His massage technique and pressure was on-point! A bunch of knots that were causing so much tension melted away and I walked out of the appointment with my body feeling rejuvenated! Something that struck me as odd were the number of reviewers complaining about not getting their full treatment time. It had me worried that my services would be cut off early. Rest assured this absolutely DID NOT happen and Muammer gave me the full treatment time as booked. I think that when you actually show up on-time with the necessary grace period before your appointment like you're supposed to, you get serviced appropriately. Coming to Spavia was a real treat and I can't wait to book another appointment in the future!

Went today for the Ultimate 24K Glow Radiance Facial with Tavianna. This was my first time ever…read morehaving a facial at a spa, so I was excited and a little nervous not knowing what to expect. The front desk staff was very helpful -- walking me through the consent forms, showing me the changing area, and helping me set the password for my locker. After changing, you're given a robe and slippers. The robe is incredibly soft and almost weighted, which added to the comfort. It even has pockets for your jewelry or glasses. Phones are not allowed in the treatment area, and no video/photo is permitted past the changing room, which I appreciated (and respected) for privacy. The facial itself was extremely relaxing. The music was at the perfect volume, and the room lighting was dim without being too dark -- just enough to enhance the experience. The service included a hand and arm massage with hot stones and warm compresses, which was such a nice touch. One minute I was getting a scrub, and the next I was waking up -- it was that relaxing. They also have a retail area at the front where you can purchase the products used during your service. Overall, a wonderful first spa experience. I'm already looking forward to booking my second facial and trying other services they offer. 100% would recommend

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!

This is one of the closest nail salons to me. So it is convenient. I only really go here for…read morepedicures since I do hard gel or sculpted extensions elsewhere. However, I will admit that I did come in when I had a Gel-X tip split from another salon and they helped me with a new nail and tried to match the color as much as possible. The pedicures, mainly gel ones LAST 3+ weeks. It's probably their top and base because I've brought in my own gel (LeChat) and the results were the same. (I do avoid using DND/Daisy since I'm not a fan of them.) They also cut my nails as short as I request them to and VERY SHORT. Massages sometimes can be hit or miss since I need a firm, deep tissue. But I will say the consistency of having pedicures that can last forever is great! Don't change Kevin and Team! My only cons are that they don't do Russian/dry manicures as a normal mani treatment. Prices are a little high, but that's typical Diablo Valley prices. Oakland/Berkeley/Alameda are around 10-15% cheaper.

I booked appointments for both myself and my friend well in advance because we wanted to avoid a…read morelong wait. Unfortunately, we still ended up waiting almost two hours, which completely defeated the purpose of making an appointment. I paid $80 for a pedicure, but it was very disappointing. There was no massage or the level of service I expected for that price. When they started my friend's manicure , the technician was very rude to her, which made the experience even more unpleasant. The biggest surprise came when, after all that waiting, a staff member told me they couldn't do my manicure because there were too many customers waiting. I had specifically booked an appointment, so I don't understand why my reserved time wasn't honored. Overall, the service was unprofessional, poorly organized, and not worth the money. If appointments are required, they should be respected. This experience was extremely disappointing, and I would not recommend this salon based on how we were treated.

Price is good ($65 for full gel x), along with service! They played music (Sabrina Carpenter, Zara,…read moreetc), which helped with the nice vibe inside the nail salon. Constantly asked if I liked the length, which ensured customer satisfaction. However, the nail tech who did the gel x service seems a little inexperienced. She did not clean up the gel adhesive behind my nails. If you don't care about the back of the nails, definitely come here lol

ABSOLUTELY NOT! THEY TRY TO SCAM YOU!…read more I called and asked for the price of the nails I wanted I was told it was $65. Upon arrival they then bumped the price up to a whopping $105 I asked how it went all the way up to the price and I was met was sheer disrespect! "You don't know anything about nails" and "if you don't want the nails done don't get them done" clearly, I don't understand the price breakdown and yes I do want my nails done I just want to understand how and why $40 was added. That's why I'm asking? I then asked for the menu or a menu of some sort so that I can calculate the breakdown of it and the menu stated that the service that I asked for was indeed no more than $85. The male that was supposed to be doing my nails, then got upset as well because I was asking for a menu he walked away without saying anything and told the woman who was at the front desk to do my nails. Mind you, This is my first time EVER going here might I add. Clearly they were trying to get over on me. There's no telling how many people they've done this too before I do not recommend going here. I politely stood up, apologizing for I guess inconveniencing them by simply asking to see a menu and left. Never again.

A hidden gem! We…read morecame around 5 PM on a Saturday and only waited about 15 minutes for a private tub to open up, which was much quicker than we expected. The walk to our tub was one of my favorite parts. The garden-like pathways with all the trees and flowers made it feel like we had left the Bay Area for a little while. It was peaceful and had such a relaxing atmosphere. Our private tub was surprisingly spacious and included a changing area with a bench, mirror, hooks, and even a shower, which was a nice bonus. We were also happy that our tub was open to the sky instead of covered-- it was so nice being able to look up at the clouds while soaking. I can only imagine how beautiful it would be at night under a clear sky full of stars. We came because we were incredibly sore after some intense workouts, and spending an hour here was exactly what we needed. It was clean, private, relaxing, and absolutely worth the money. We'll definitely be back!!!
