    The bottle matches the nails, but the chip does not match the bottle.

    I've been coming here for over 5 years. They are generally pretty good. However, last month I chose my color and what they put on my nails was not at all what I chose. When I mentioned it to the manager and showed her the photos I took of the chip and what was on my hand, it was clear they did not match. She said "next time you come in remind me and I will make it right". When I mentioned it to her today, she said there is nothing she could do. And that the colors were old and they fade. I don't know if that is true or not, but these colors didn't look that way. They just looked different. Also, today the technician noticed right away that the color in the jar was not like the chip and gave me the opportunity to switch colors. Just beware to verify the color at the beginning. It may not be what you think you are getting.

    My husband and I came as walkins to this Nail Bar. It was great! We were taken back quickly. We both got pedicures and manicures. All the staff were very nice did amazing work! We originally were going to do just pedicures but they offered manicures as well. We figured why not!?

    I wish I got the name of the woman who did my nails. She was so patient with me & she did such an amazing job!! Great experience at Avalon nail bar.

    How they turned out

    I sat on writing this review for awhile but here it is. I booked a gel pedicure and dip powder nails for sub ball and made the appointment a month in advance. This was my first time visiting after it had been recommended by a co worker and I thought it was odd they didn't call to confirm my appointment, but I called the day of and thankfully they confirmed they had me in the books. First I want to describe that the aesthetic of the inside is gorgeous just like the pictures. I was happy to be treating myself to such an upscale vibe. I had an inspiration picture that I showed the girl doing my nails and was a little put off when she then proceeded to come back and what felt like kind of threw swatches at me. She wasn't kind, but also wasn't rude but it didn't feel great as a paying customer to be sitting there treated like that. She didn't show any interest in helping me match the colors I was asking for which I specifically did. Ask her to help me and "do you think this would work?". and she was just like "whatever you want" I have had lots of nail techs in my past gladly help me color match to an inspo picture but she was texting on her phone as I was taking my time picking out two colors. I knew I was going to be paying about $70 for my nails and I'm going to make sure I like the color. After my nails were done I got a gel pedicure which was super nice, no complaints. My biggest issue I keep thinking about was when I went to the front to pay for my two services. I paid cash, and because I was paying cash and had bigger bills that the receptionist guy was aware of and I felt like I was taken advantage of because of it. I had to have him make some change to break it down and for that reason he knew I had bigger bills. I feel like what I tipped was fair for the service. My total came out to about $110 and I gave them over 20 percent gratuity in cash. I did not love how both the rude nail tech, and the girl who did my pedicure were standing over me with the guy at the front as they watched me make the correct change to tip them. I felt bullied into giving them more of a tip because I got some side eye as I handed him cash in the original amount with the 20 percent gratuity for each of them. It made me feel icky and I'm not super excited to go back because of that experience. Never have I ever been to a nail salon where the person(s) who performed the service(s) have watched me pay at the front like that. I did not end up loving my nails because of the pink tone I chose because the nail tech didn't have any interest in helping me match the picture. I settled once I went home and showed a friend and my husband and with some encouragement I ended up loving them and having them grow on me because they complimented my dress well. Maybe when I want to have another fancy pedicure, I'll go back but right now. I'm not really happy with my first visit there. Justified three stars because my nails lasted long, I loved my pedicure, and it's gorgeous on the inside.

    This was my second time here, I loved the spacious place and friendly staff. They offer a drink which a great bonus too. It was my first time trying out dip powder and was floored with how many layers they put on my nails. I asked for one dip layer and she said she had to do two. I appreciate the attention to detail, but my appointment was almost an hour and a half. I would go back for a pedicure and regular manicure but I don't suggest dip. They look great, but are so thick.

    Great service and a beautifully decorated. This is definitely a place to come spoil yourself, have a glass of wine and a quality pedicure where I feel other nail salons are more focused on getting customers in and out.

    gel manicure developed stain like coloring on some nails although my hands werent dirty? Edges began to peel after only a couple of days
    Ivanna M.

    Ive gave this salon a couple of chances before writing this review. Ill list out some pros and cons. Pros: Clean-ish (restrooms could use some TLC) An experience with the free drinks Conveniently located Respects appointment times Cons: Pricey Quality of service changes tech to tech All in all, average nail salon like most in the area. After trying dip with extensions, dip on natural nail, gel manis, and classic pedis, I would stick to their dip on natural nail and pedicure services only.

    My husband and I went for a date day. We were just a walk-in and didn't have an appointment. They have so many chairs that we got right in. You never know especially when you have two people or more in your group if they will be able to fit you both in at the same time. We were explained the packages and they helped us both figure which one would be best for our needs. I am 30 weeks pregnant and I was given the package that is most moisturizing and an extra massage time on my legs which felt amazing. I didn't know what to expect when they rolled out the fruit cart with milk and honey on it though. Which made me laugh but it was an experience none the less and felt funny having fruit placed on my legs but amazing at the same time. We will be back. They also have a punch card. Very clean and relaxing.

    Most nail technicians there just go through the motions. Very little thought into individual need of client.

    I made an appointment with Alexis Toll after seeing her post on a local FB group…read more I showed her a picture of what I wanted 3-5 time during my appointment. She was pleasant. The salon is very dark. When she was done with my hair, looked darker than I asked for but since it was dark in the salon, I decided not to say anything in front of her new client. I thought it would be better to check it out at home. She was eager to set up a new appointment but I made an excuse so I could evaluate this very expensive hair coloring. My bill with tip was $365.88. I got home and checked my hair in every light in my house. It was much darker than it was when I went in which is not at all what I asked. I asked for an icy blonde and not a brunette. I messaged her, told her I would not make another appointment and said my hair was much darker than it was before I went in. She recommended purple shampoo to help correct her mistake. I would have to spend money to fix it but this is also the same shampoo she told me while she was doing my hair that she wouldn't recommend it for my hair type (I have been told in the past not to use it). She offered to redo it for free but at this point, I lost any ounce of confidence in her. Her mistake, her bad recommendation (other colorists agree) etc. I then asked for my tip back because she truly did not deserve a penny of it. She decided to ignore me after I asked. After she ignored me, I decided to comment on her post, the one I saw to make an appointment. I stated the above with pictures. Within 5-10 minutes (not at all exaggerating) she deleted the post. She decided to post in a local private group of all beauticians etc. in kitsap and she told everyone if I made an appointment to fix her mistake, they need to cancel because I was a difficult client. She blocked anyone who defended me. This post was very hurtful since she made the mistake. I was criticized by a few of her friends who backed her and was told they back her only because she's one of them. She slandered my name, made sure no colorist would touch me to fix her mistake (or take me on as a client) in kitsap, kept 100% of the money, refused to return the tip (I didn't ask for it all, just my tip) and had her friends pm me to harass me. Pictures to show day before my appointment, what I asked for and what I got.

    ALEXIS!!! This is a super post to you . When I first inquired about this salon I was nervous since…read moreI have coarse, curly, wavy poofy hair . Every time I get it cut it's always lopsided , or I have a random long piece in the back . This girl is a rockstar !! I had my hair japanese thermal straightened and have been trimming it out so I can enjoy my curls again . She shaped my hair, thinned it out , taught me about curl patterns , how to retrain my hair , correct salon grade products , heat products , inquired about my routine , and even talked to me about color because I was honest and told her I had thermal straightening in my hair still and the color she is seeing is blonde that I had professionally colored back to my original color . I can't wait to go back to start my color journey ! Since I want peak a boos in there ! She was so lovely , knowledgeable and after the cut my hair has been bouncy , light , curly for days ! I feel so confident since I work with doctors and patients all day and they notice EVERYTHING!! The Salon is very neat, tidy, clean and professional . Thank you girl ! I will forever be going back to you .

I had not had my haircut in a super long time and needed some help with some low maintenance color options. The salon itself is very "low stress". It doesn't give off your typical salon vibe. It is comfortable and everyone there made me feel like I was at home while still maintaining a professional atmosphere. Jess helped me get the perfect cut. She really listened to what I wanted, while providing helpful tips. She didn't cut it too short, and the style is amazing. I can't say enough about the cut itself. It is PERFECT!! She also helped me pick out two great colors for some peek-a-boo highlights. They look so natural! It added crazy dimension to my thin hair. I ended up making friends with both of the other stylists working and saw the work they both did on other customers while I was the shop and.... WOW. These ladies know what they're doing!! I highly recommend this place! Everyone is super friendly and local to the area. I will be back here, and I won't wait so long before my next cut. Jess helped take all the anxiety out of this experience for me.
