The music is easy and the place is clean. Heidi is great! She does a fantastic job with the nails - in fact everyone who works there must do a great job because every customer that comes/leaves during my appointment is pleased. I highly recommend this place. In a sea of nail salons they stand out. I urge the community to support this salon

I really enjoyed my first visit to Avalon and think I will begin making my visit here a monthly…read morething. I am an art teacher and rarely get my nails done during the school year but I have been really just wanting to get a gel manicure badly so I decided to look up nearby nail salons. Avalon is located only a mile from my workplace so I decided to give them a try. I've heard great things about them from a few friends too. My favorite part about my visit here were that I was a walk-in and they were able to accommodate me right away. The host/woman at the desk was friendly and had me pick out my nail colors. I selected a dark blue and glitter (galaxy, ya know?!) and had a seat. The nail technician (I want to say her name was Sarah) wasn't very talkative and got to work immediately. My other favorite thing about this visit is that she was quick! I loved being able to walk through the doors, get my nails done and leave in 30 minutes. So awesome. My nails look great too! My only complaint is that the nail technicians work space was super dirty. It had dust particles all over it which was making my hands itchy. It just felt dirty. Next time, if this happens, I'll be sure to speak up and ask her to wipe the space first. I was pleased with my $30 bill, which after a tip was $36. That's almost $10 less than I was paying at my former nail salon.

There's a whole little strip mall area I had no idea existed. A hidden gem! Regina answered my call and she owns the business and does nails. She gave me a wonderful pedicure and gel manicure and was a joy to chat with. She said she's owned the business in that location for 28 years. There is a massage therapist, facial esthetician, two nail technicians including Regina and she rents out space for three hairdressers. It was $70 total for a gel manicure and pedi. It was a Sunday so the salon overall was quiet and it was really just Regina and me the full time in the nail area. PS. Her dog Bella is so cute and greeted me upon arrival. She just chilled in her dog bed the whole time.

I started out…read morea bit stressed because I was a little lost but when I say, they made it so easy for me, they did. I received a call and they decreased my stress by walking me through the directions to get here. Well guess what?? I arrived and the salon is suites in a brick building and they are beyond nice and unique! The WorstSalonEver is on something different for sure. If you're up for a laugh and some good vibes, I would say...this is your place! I would also say, if you're uptight and anal, this is also your place to be so you can unwind and let your hair down. The service I requested was a gel pedicure with white polish and glitter on the big toe, also known as the Million Dollar Toe...BUT that's what Vegas call it. If you ask for it, they will know what you're in need of. I would say, All in All, I am pleased with the service! I received just what I needed...a nice glass of mimosa! Thank you for allowing me to let my hair down and relax and thanks for your ever so lasting positive As FUGK energy! Lastly...I'm the first to review! Boom

The color options provided do not match the actual colors, they say that this is because the colors they give you to chose from are gel and if you chose non gel it is "slightly" different. No, I wanted a very neutral low key mauve and walked out with Barbie neon pink toenails which is very much not my style. It is actually embarrassing. Three days later all my nails have 50% chipped/peeling. Pedicure? They mildly exfoliate, no real work done there. Though it is this way many places, I really wish the techicians would just stop pretending like they understand anything you say. Every single time, I end up with some add on that I did not want, but go along with because there are zero communication skills other than front desk. Oh, and I asked to have my toenails cut and they were barely cut, I guess so that I have to come back next week. But, I will not be coming back ever.

In town for a confrence, this place had lots of 4 and 5 star reviews... so here we go…read more.... They were willing to take me right away without an appointment. My first impression was...this place is kinda messy. Chipped paint, dusty counter, debris on floors. I was almost afraid to put my feet in the tub but they did scrub it out really well so I felt pretty comfortable with that. They do seen to clean each foot tub well. They also wear gloves. It is a bit warm in here. Pretty good pedicure. Love the hot towel. He did a good scrubbing. My feet definitely feel good and waaaaay softer! He really made sure he got all those summer sandal rough spots lol. The manicure was good as well . Great vibe massage and all dead skin removed. Thank you for the service. I will say however, this place does need a good deep cleaning.

My pedicure was incredible- she took the time to do every step and an amazing massage. Spa pedicure is $40 with regular polish. $15 extra for gel. I showed Vicki the inspiration for my hands, and she went above and beyond! Her words "I can do that, easy". She took the time to clean my hands and fix my nails and made them into beautiful princess nails. I can't recommend this place enough!! Wishing you all the success to grow.

Although... he did cut my toe nails so short that it was painful when he was touching them. He never asked me if I wanted them cut short and now I have to wait for them to grow back which is not a big deal. I have to say that if he cut them any shorter I would be bleeding. Another thing that caught my attention is while doing the massage and sugar scrub portion, he was talking to a co-worker pretty much the entire time. I understand that it's normal to chat with coworkers and that doesn't bother me in general but he was talking with his hands so it felt like my massage and scrub were being interrupted every 10 seconds. As well as not even looking at what he was doing most of the time. To top it all off, when I went to pay.. I was feeling not great about the experience. When he asked for a tip on the card reader.. he was staring at what I was putting down the whole time and I felt very pressured by that. Overall, I left feeling less relaxed than when I came in so I thought I'd give my feedback. I think I'll make the drive to my regular nail salon in east asheville instead.

Honestly I have no idea how this place isn't packed. It's a hidden gem. The pedicure massage chairs are super comfy. The vibe is always chill classical music, the staff is friendly and accommodating. I've literally ALWAYS had a great time. The manicures actually last, too! In my opinion, Tony gives the best manicure, especially if you're getting gel-x extensions (I think that's what I got. He's also the house pro if you want nail art. Tony has a special station with a special pro light lol he's got quite the setup. Highly recommend!
