Have been going to the uptown spa for a few years. I have never been disappointed! Tonight I had a last minute pedicure from Julia and she was amazing! Megan is my esthetician for my manicures and she is fabulous! I absolutely love it here! Top notch service all the way!!! Feels like home!! ❤️????

I booked a full day experience with a gf of mine. We had massages, facials, and the classic mani/pedi. Everything was amazing until we got in for the mani/pedi. The girl that did my nails didn't even know how to properly take off nail polish, she botched my nails so badly and I got so tired of asking her to fix things that I just gave up because I wanted to leave. We had been there for almost 5 hours already at that point. When it came down to pay, I explained to the manager about my terrible nail job and she said she would credit my account for another mani/pedi. I was also told I could use this at another location. I called for mother's day weekend trying to book and they were booked pretty solid (understandable) however, they tried telling me at the downtown location that they could squeeze me in but it wouldn't be for the full amount of time it's supposed to take (they would rush it) Seriously? Cause that's what I paid for? A rushed job? At this point I gave up on ever using my credit up until today. My husband convinced me that I deserved it and should use the credit I had sitting there, so I called and booked for this weekend. I called the uptown location first (where I originally had gone) I asked the girl if I could pay the difference for gel nail polish on my hands and she said it was fine but that it would cost $24. I thought she was nuts, who charges $24 for applying gel nail polish to finger nails????????? I said nope, not interested. I looked on their website and it clearly stated there that the extra fee is $12 NOT $24. So I called back, asked to speak with a manager (it was the same girl that had answered) and the manager wasn't around. So I said to her, the polish is $12 extra and not $24. I then asked if I could book for downtown cause at this point I didn't want to deal with uptown anymore. I spoke with the lady there, she booked me in and I guess we'll see how it goes on Saturday. But regardless of the outcome, I will NEVER be going to Avalon ever again. Not like I'm sure they even care.. ***UPDATE*** Since I have written the review, Crystal from the uptown location has reached out and apologized for the lack of customer service I had received and urged that this was not the way they believe their customers should be treated. She has been nice enough to reach out and make things better. I do plan on going back with a perfect pair service (massage and facial) with my mother in law at the downtown location next week and I'm actually looking forward to it. Thank you for reaching out and making things better, Crystal. :)

Love this place! Very professional. Highly recommend Rowan for a massage. She's the best I've ever had! (Michelle Blanchard) can't change it to my "new" name...ha!

Ashley Noonan

Great staff and service! Ashley always does a great job cutting and styling my hair.

Brittany Boyd

Booked myself and my boyfriend a RMT treatment. The deal was incredible, $25 for a 30 minute massage. Will definitely keep an eye out for another cut a thon. Customer service was amazing, massage was amazing. Did not get offered beer ???? Think they should consider sound proofing the waiting room from the hair salon... it would make it a calmer environment similar to the northside location.

April Barnet

I love, love, love Avalon SalonSpa! All three locations have fantastic service, great stylists, and smell like heaven!

Jessica Hovey

AH-MAZING! My sister + I live in BC + Alberta so planning a Mothers Day surprise isn't easy from across the country but these girls are incredible! They treated my Mom SO well, she left feeling totally pampered just like she wanted + deserves. They went above + beyond (multiple times) to make sure it was as perfect as it could be. Thank you all SO much! This will definitely become an annual gift for my Mom ????

Lisa Ives Thurston

Adore coming here for my more adventerous dye jobs and for simple haircuts. Staff are always very pleasant and willing to give pointers for new styles you want to try at home.

Jason Paul

I go here every other week for massage. The decor and settings of this place is resort like. Very nice and relaxing. Brittany does my massages and she is fantastic at what she does and is very friendly.

Margaret Johnson

I won't get massages anywhere else. Rowan is excellent.

Maddi Slaney

Fantastic spot - loved the massage and facial

Sally Armstrong

The customer service at Avalon Uptown is fantastic. Jill was running a little late with her previous appointment so Angela offered me a complimentary hand massage for the inconvenience. Jill always does a great job with my eyebrows and I had no issue waiting after they treated me so well. Highly recommend Avalon Uptown!

Jayleen Keats

Love the people here always so amazing,I leave there looking good and feeling great

Great service here, I've gone for nails, pedicures, massage (which was a lifesaver during my pregnancy), and hair! I recommend them to everyone, and have booked appointments for my family when they're visiting from out of town :)

Kiran

I went here for my prom hair and make up! They did a good job with my hair but a terrible job for my make up , I was so sad because it was supposed to be my big prom day and literally after 15mins, my fake eyelash on one side started falling off and the women told me to wait 30mins for someone to come put the last back on and I had to leave because it was my prom day and an overall disappointment for sending that much money on a make-up job I could have done better on myself!

Colin Steeves

Great haircut

I adore these ladies!!!! Every experience I have had on the North Side location has been wonderful

Great spot.

Excellent massage service. Cheaper than other massages in the city. Free refreshments while you wait. High end treatment at a fair price.

Karen Matchett

Hi - had a great experience yesterday with makeup and Miranda also other services in the past (hair, hair removal, facial etc. The atmosphere and people were wonderful. However on this last occasion it was my birthday so my husband stopped in the day before to pre-pay for my services as a surprise and gift for me. He also picked up a separate gift certificate of $100 from my son. Apparently there is still a credit there under my name that I can use in the future but it was disappointing for my husband as he had no other gift for me.

Barbara MacLean

Always awesome! Been going here for the last six years and I intend to continue, love it!

Lisa King

I found the girl doing my nails not very friendly she didn't really talk the whole time I was there. I put the mask under my nose for a minute as I was overheating she was rude about that. I started coughing due to the mask she never asked if I was ok or anything. Thankfully one of her colleagues brought me a drink which was a huge help. I was told it would be 55.00 ended up being 74.00 and took almost 2 hours. I went to Avalon because I had a giftcard but I can tell you it won't happen again giftcard or not. I will stick with the lady that usually always does my nails and everything.

Kyley Aubin

erin hipkins

I love Victoria for my waxing services. However, I have gave 3 different stylist a chance to 'fix' my hair cut and still cant be done. I will be looking elsewhere for new hair salon. Manicure review: 3 nails have chipped within the first 2 days.

Jeff Morgan

Try the men's haircut!

Kels Brewster

I was the bride this past weekend fpr a bachelorette party and I found the woman who did my pedicure was rude...

I just had my nails done last Monday I got gel nails. It has only been a week and the gel is chipping and coming off, not happy at all I will not be returning.

Susan white

I make an appointment at Avalon up town, but according to manager they just misunderstood and booked me for another day. Seems they don't really value their customers!

Lindsey Luff

I love the massage therapy..and Karen at the uptown location is abosultey wonderful. Highly recommended. On the pricey side but the experience is worth it and I couldn't go anywhere else. I love the little bit of aromatherapy they do in the beginning and end.
