I came to this location randomly, not going to lie - this nail salon is located in a convenient place. Right off of the highway. I entered on a random Friday and was greeted at the front to ask what service I'm requesting. At that time I was introduced to Snow to do my pedicure who did an amazing job. Such an amazing job that I'd love to return to her specifically! Lovedd this location, and the warm friendly staff! read more

I finally found my nail and eyebrow spot! It is clean in there and nail techs are very kind. The only flaw is a few times my gel manicures haven't lasted more than a week- which usually gel lasts at least two weeks. The eyebrow waxing is what I need. read more

From the staff to the treatment, everything was spectacular as a person that doesn't get their nails done frequently. The staff works like a family and treat you as such. They just ask for the same in return. I got my nails done by a friendly tech over there and they made sure my feet and hands were treated properly. Must go if you need to have your nails done. read more

My daughter in-law and I went there this morning... it was a horrible experience. They rushed thru the pedicure they didn't even scrub our feet. They barely cut the toe nails but they wanted us to get the expensive pedicure. First and last time going here. The customer service was poor and when I went to pay I was told I needed cash for tip. Never again. If I pay 70.00 for a pedicure I expect my feet to be cleaned and toe nails cleaned and cut down. Waste of money today. read more

Dawn is great. They are clean and friendly. I have never had a bad experience. The massage chairs for pedicures is nice. I recommend.

I've been to this salon a few times, and ALWAYS had a good experience.....until now. Today someone new was there, and she WAY overcharged me. Like by a LOT. I questioned it, as it was $34 over my regular amount and I was told because I got a "design" which was a sticker, like a legitimate sticker, and I had two broken nails. The entire time the person was trying to upsell everything and I kept declining. If I hadn't, I have no doubt that my bill would have been over $150 for a mani/pedi and brow wax. I've never left a salon feeling so scammed. I don't usually write reviews, but this was disappointing. Also, a side note, WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A WORLDWIDE PANDEMIC, and the least the people there can do is wear a mask indoors. Which most did, except a few employees, and that's just sad these days. I'm sad I won't be back for Donna, who did wonderful in the past, but I really feel cheated. We all work hard for our money. read more

Avalon Nails and Spa Crofton - Here's the "design" that cost $35 - Nail Salons Near Me - Crofton, Maryland

This was a stop on a whim. We weren't planning to go to this particular nail salon. But it was conveniently located. My wife and I were well over due for a pedicure. Yes I am a man and yes I take care of my feet. It is mandatory to do so. I can't be running around with crazy brick kickers. The place was pretty empty which is not typically a good sign for these types of establishments. However, they were on point. Outside of the tech not offering the menu when I sat down, this was exceptional. The tech was efficient and she had softly strong hands applying the perfect amount of pressure to the right places. The process was about an hour. Starting with the typical pedicure footwork. This led to a series of soakings, messages, hot towel treatments hot stones and TLC. I have gotten extensive pedicures before and not all salons are created equal. But this tech was super meticulous. She was rubbing knots outta my calf's scrubbing in betwix my toes and constantly checking to make sure temperatures were comfortable. I had no clue that this place existed but was glad that we chose to stop here. read more

Snow did a great job on my gel pedicure. She was kind and took her time as opposed to trying to quickly move on to the next client. I appreciate the time she took to ensure I enjoyed my experience. The facility was updated and clean. I was greeted with kindness when I arrived. Overall a nice experience. read more

love to go to this salon. I drive all the way from Annapolis just to see Victoria! She is amazing, my nails are always perfect and she is very professional.

I will go see Victoria for many years to come!! read more

This nail salon is a winner because they have plenty of color choices for SNS nails! Plus, my nails don't chip between treatments! The technicians seem to know their stuff. Not as nicely decorated as other upscale places I've been visited, but this is my new place...I'm choosing good quality application over aesthetics. read more

Avalon Nails and Spa Crofton - Nice waterfall thingy - Nail Salons Near Me - Crofton, Maryland

I've been coming to this salon for 3+ years and have always received top notch service from Tran (I'll reserve that review separately). However, today was a totally different story. I booked a week in advance, but my regular tech was out sick. So, a different tech "Tee/Tea" (male, station #7) did my mani and pedi. Even though I requested an experienced tech, and was assured this tech knew what he was doing; however, I knew from the onset that wasn't the case because I recognized the tech as someone who usually does my 10 year olds mani and pedi = basic service. As a customer, when you're paying for a service, you expect to get your preference in the most respectful way possible. This tech became easily frustrated when I asked that he file my nails in my preferred shape - the shape I've gotten at this salon for the past 3+ years. I had to ask that he re-file at least 3 times. Then, I am used to washing my hands after the filing. He said washing my hands would be a waste of time. That struck me as odd because every tech in this salon has requested hands be washed before proceeding with polish. After he was done I asked if he would oil and lotion my hands (as I've been used to recieving for years). With an obvious attitude/shift in tone, he said - I'll do it if you need it. What? Isn't this a part of the service that I'm paying for...why aren't you proactively providing this? Then, he walks off to the back...I had to ask if my toes were dry and if it was OK to leave. His response was that it will take a awhile for my toes to dry. OK, fine...I escorted myself to the drying station...something every other tech usually escorts their customer to. Whether it be lack of experience, lack of customer service skills, or whatever else...this gentleman has poor table side manner. I advise against having him be your service provider. We work hard for our money; and, it should be spent with providers who value it and their customers. read more

I absolutely love Victoria AND Tina. The whole staff is fantastic, but I'll never go to anybody but these two girls again. Loyal customer for life! The work is amazing, cleanliness, friendliness, it's worth every penny. read more

love this place!! i have been going here for years for a pedicure and i have gotten acrylics multiple times. always so great!

I have been a monthly customer for a couple of years now and this is my go-to place. I do not see any particular technician because I don't make appointments. I usually go either early on Saturday or Sunday, or during the week, and I have never had more than a 4 minute wait. Also, the staff has always been friendly and they speak as soon as I enter the door. I have been getting SNS (dip powder) nails for years and most of the technicians here know how to do it and do it well. So for this particular service, I would give them 5 stars. My nails are strong and thriving, and I do not experience any nail cracks in between services. I also like that they have a wide range of SNS colors unlike many other area nail salons. I like their pedicure packages/options, but the service I receive for pedicures are just okay. For the most part, I am pleased, but there have been times where my toenails were clipped or filed on an angle. read more

It doesn't deserve even one star. Well, the receptionist was nice in the beginning, I guess here you go, that's who gets that star. On a serious note though, I am in rage. Rude nail tech that didn't listen when I told her that she is hurting me. I told her to slow down because she was filing my nails without even looking,-she answered that she knows what she is doing. When it came to my pedicure (whyyyyyy did I stay????) she actually broke two of my toenails. She was so reckless removing my old gel to the point she broke both healthy toenails-the worst part is that she didn't tell me anything. I felt pain as she was removing the gel, but she just kept on. Once I realized that it's not going well, I asked her to just apply clear polish as I could not trust her at all at that point. As I look closely at my toes I realized that both are BROKEN IN THE MIDDLE. I brought that up and she tried to come up with the lies that they were broken underneath the gel- bs goodness gracious. I asked for help from the front desk and guess what- he just echoed techs words. Ok, let's assume they were broken, why not ask me if I want to have them fixed??? The morale of the story is that they damaged my toenails, charged $80 and didn't take any accountability for it. Go at your own risk. read more

They dont know how to properly do full sets.. Nails still bullky after a bad file job.. Ambience is nice, but the attitude amd talking bad about customers when they're not satisfied with the product is unacceptable, i will not return under any circumstances.. Only good thing was the guy who worked in the front and the guy who did my pedicure, very professional and polite unlike the rest of them. read more

Avalon Nails and Spa Crofton - Nail Salons Near Me - Crofton, Maryland

This is an abysmal establishment, do not heed the reviews and be swayed by the decor and walk-in availability. I am in utter disbelief as to how "nail technicians" do not paint the sides of your nails yet paint the entire cuticle. This will inadvertently cause separation between the cuticle and nail and the gel polish will peel right off--absolutely pointless to even get gel polish. When I brought up the lack of polish on the sides of my nails, the "technician" hastily grabbed my hand and began filing the sides and bottom of my nails down; now my nails are vastly shorter than the anticipated length. This was definitely not what I requested and there was clearly a language barrier. The client alongside of me understood quite transparently what I meant. The "technician" also applied globs of polish on my finger nails, thus giving me very thick uneven nails. During my visit, a technician laughed and joked about the lack of a tip from a credit card receipt from a previous customer-- I am not surprised and wish I would have trusted my instinct to avoid this subpar establishment. Avoid this place like the plague so that you are not burdened by a language barrier, left with fully painted cuticles, exposed unpolished fingernails, and thick, uneven globs of polish. read more

I decided to walk over and see if they would take walk-ins while my boyfriend got his haircut. I walked in and was instantly greeted and asked how I could be helped. I asked for SNS and he said, "Of course! Pick out a color." I was then greeted by the girl who was doing my nails and she helped me pick a color and we had a nice conversation the entire time she did my nails. She was very sweet, we joked, and she was very genuine and personable! 10/10 would recommend to anyone and I will DEFINITELY be going back for my next set. read more

I love this place but the fact that I got my nails done on a Friday and they chipped this bad on a Sunday is absolutely ridiculous.

Went here because my roommate recommended them. Wasn't that impressed. The first time I went I got a powder dip and pedicure. It started chipping 2-3 days after. I went back about two weeks ago. I had a fill on a fake toenail in which it looked HORRIBLE. The tech did not know how to do acrylic on toes and I even had to tell her my nail was uneven. On my fingers the tech did not file my nails correctly and they are uneven and the powder is cracking. It's honestly a nice salon but I've had better quality at nearby shops in Bowie... the price doesn't match the quality at all. I won't be returning. read more

Horrific experience. Was barely greeted. They don't have any colors and will not let you know until it's too late. Staff stay on the phone and mobile devices playing games. My toes and hands are two completely different colors ! And they should have told me they ran out of the color I wanted initially so that I could pick another . But wouldn't help. They ran out of my back up option as well. The staff needs to be on inventory ordering more colors instead of playing Super Mario Brothers! read more

Love this place! I've never gotten a bad manicure or pedicure here! They are all so sweet and always jump in to help each other. One other thing that's really important to me is cleanliness and they are always clean! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! read more

Does a great job. I'm allergic to acrylic and they do liquid gel nails... so I can get the fake nail without using acrylic or the asotone. Nice employees. The only thing that irritates me is when I call to make an appointment... I specifically ask for the liquid gel nails... and they book me in. I get there and they sit me down with someone who is going to do the regular gel nails... and not the liquid gel... so I end up having to wait or coming back a different day as only a couple workers know how to do the liquid gel nails. read more

I happened upon this nail salon via Yelp since I badly needed my nails done. I opted for the SNS dipping powder which I had never had done before. The young man, Eddie, at the front desk was very courteous and genuinely nice. I appreciated that. I didn't have an appointment but I was seen by Sophia right away. It started off fine but ended very badly. She cut my finger with the file causing it to bleed, left several imperfections in the nails and got the color stuck to my skin on several fingers. I called her back three times to fix things. She came back each time and graciously fixed it. She informed me afterwards that the powder can get stuck to your skin if your nails are short. I told her that she should have said that at the onset. I was disappointed in her workmanship and carelessness while doing my nails. She was checking her phone and laughing and talking loudly with other nail technicians for a large majority of my service. Unfortunately, I don't think I will be returning although there may be better nail technicians there. The salon decor is beautiful though. read more

Still going strong with my Quyen!!! Please do yourself a favor....make an appointment with her! You absolutely need one to get a spot in her chair.

I'm not sure I want the answer to this but why are there so many fruit flies around? This was the third (and last time) I was there. I only went back because I received a gift certificate but I think next time I will just throw it away. Went with a friend and we both received horrible service. My toenails were cut unevenly. There is a noticeable size difference between my nails and on my right foot, I have a nail that was cut on a slant and was cut so short that the skin around it was red and tender. Then one of the nails wasn't cut all the way. My friend got the worst of it though. Her tech started 10 mins after mine started yet we finished at the exact same time. The tech barely looked at what she was doing and was focused primarily of what was happening in the parking lot (which was nothing.) My friend did not receive her foot/leg scrub, did not receive toe separators, and the polish was sloppily applied. I wish I took a picture of the tech staring off to the side instead of watching what she was doing. On top of all that, the tech LEFT A PIECE OF UNCUT NAIL HANGING FROM HER TOE!! This all happened on a Wednesday afternoon. It was not busy at all. There wasn't anyone waiting when we got in nor did anyone come in while we were seated. There was no excuse why my friend's service was rushed. We did express our disappointment at the end of the service. No apologies were given just that they were "trying to look for a 20% off coupon for next time." I was surprised to notice the shock on the girl's face when I declined the coupon saying that we won't be back. I'm a pretty easy-going person but this was absolutely unacceptable. read more

It's been 4 years since my first review, and this is still my to-go nail spa! I now get the SNS powder-dip instead of a gel manicure. My nails remain strong and do not break easily, plus I do not need a break between manis. The lifespan of an SNS manicure is typically 3 weeks before the color starts to very slowly come off at the base of the nails, which is GREAT wear all things considered! All the established staff are well known in our local community. You will get a quality service regardless of the technician you choose, otherwise they will happily fix it for you. But, IF you had to ask for anyone my go-to technicians are Holly and Vivi ;) read more

Getting my pedicure here as I write and am very pleased. The atmosphere is relaxing and my technician is friendly and sweet. This isn't the kind of place where they talk about you in front of you, they are actually focused on their clients. I'm pleased and can't wait to be back in a few weeks for a polish change and mani pedi combo next time. The massage seats in the pedi section are nice and the decor is nice and relaxing to be here. Ahhhhhh drifting off into pampered zone. They also expanded witng Avalon too which is in the same plaza so that should say a lot about their business as well! read more
