    Excellent cut w a reasonable price. Clean. Friendly. Convenient. Thanks! Good experience

    Got my highlights done here.. bad chioce Jennifer was to busy talking spanish with the girl next to her to pay attention to my hair Alot of peices are blonde on the root and still black at the bottom if your going to create new highlights at least make the full highlight blonde not half black half blonde Waste of money need to get my hair done again

    Red highlights done by Alma...absolutely love them!

    I've been getting my hair colored by Alma for the last 5 years since moving to California...I was just driving by and decided to walk in! It's in a great location and the salon is nicely maintained, clean, the stylists are friendly! I spoke to Alma first who has been coloring my hair ever since! I absolutely love the way she dyes and highlights my hair... I started also taking my teenager to her for coloring which I will also post pictures of! But these are some snapshots of mine! And I'm also posting a picture of my daughters hair who wanted full red highlights!

    I just had my hair fully highlighted by Alma Reyes and not only she did an amazing job with my hair she is also an amazing person that I had the privilege to meetI recommend Alma.My hair was a disaster and she made it beautiful Thank Alma

    Rosa cut my hair and it was very crooked. I had to return to the salon 2 days later to get it fixed. When I tried to explain to Rosa and Alma that my hair was visibly crooked, they said it looked like that because of the sweater I was wearing and it was just the left side that was messed up. I explained that the whole hairline was crooked and I feel we were not seeing eye to eye. I just thought it would be more professional to take accountability for a mistake. Luckily Tammy was super sweet and fixed it for me.

    Picture doesn't do it justice. Great spirals..

    TLDR: I got a perm by Susan and it was a fantastic experience with fantastic results. I have been talking about getting a perm for months. I finally sent out a message on Yelp, and got a lot of automated responses from salons. The owner to Avanti messaged me directly and set up a phone consultation within one week. I was in the chair in about two more weeks. Susan seemed really experienced and asked me lots of questions. I told her I did not want a trendy 2020 wave perm, I wanted a full blown spiral perm. She did a spiral piggy back with white and grey rods (if you get perms you'll know what that means.) to her credit, she was very friendly and easy to talk to. I have been in really stuffy salons where you're uncomfortable the whole time, and luckily this did not happen with Susan. I wanted to wait a couple weeks to see if my perm held up and it totally did. Her home care directions were spot on. If you're thinking about getting a perm, this is your sign. And go to Susan or any of the other lovely ladies at Avanti.

    Emily!!! What can I say other than you know hair! You know color and you knew exactly what I wanted. You are the color Kuru! You are so good at what you do and such a pleasure! Thank you for my pampering. I thank you and my hair thanks you!!! Yay!! Renee Moya

    I love Avanti Salon and Alma that worked on my hair. I originally had really thick dark black hair. I've been going to Avanti for a year and a half. Alma is very knowledgeable and explains every step of the process to me when lighten my hair. Just like finding a good manicurist is hard to find. Don't waste your money on hairdressers that will fry your hair. But let Alma bring the beauty outta your luscious locks.

    So Mary, the owner at Avanti contacted me through yelp shortly after my negative review came out. She offered up one of her stylists to color correct my hair for free. Obviously I was apprehensive but agreed I would try as soon as I had time. I let her know my boyfriend had been sick and hospitalized with a difficult road to recovery where I'm his primary caregiver. About seven weeks later and after some checking in back and forth which I took for understanding, Mary offered me the appointment but said only half the cost would be covered because of the length of time it took me to book. Keep in mind she said nothing during our multiple messages over the seven weeks time. I thanked Mary for confirming my apprehension to return to her fake establishment. I say fake because an alarming amount of reviews are not even from North County. Fishy. I should have known better.

    I called early morning for a cut and color and was able to get an appointment for the same morning with Emily. She is amazing! Super friendly and easy to talk to. She also did my hair for a wedding I was attending to and it came out beautiful! The curls lasted all day! I will defiantly keep going back to her! Thank you emily

    Thanks Loann!!! You are THE BEST!!! Coming from Nashville, TN in June and hope to visit you again!!!
    Amy C.

    Flew all the way from Nashville, TN for a week of work in California and needed a haircut desperately.... and also an assortment of waxing services (eyebrows, etc). The salon was very easy to find, clean, the staff was very friendly, accommodating and welcomed my walk-in. Go visit Loann!!! I have crazy thick hair and am extremely discerning with who touches my hair. Loann was AWESOME! She was easy to talk to, she listened to my hair goals and offered great feedback/recommendations. I showed her a Pinterest picture and she nailed it!!! I would definitely recommend visiting the salon and booking Loann! Thanks Avanti for a peaceful experience during week of business travel!!!

    Need haircut trim for an existing angled. Bob with fine hair. How much for cut and who is best for this style?Need appointment asap?

    I would highly recommend Loann, you'll have to call her for a quote. But this salon is quite reasonable by today's standards.

I was left completely gooey and needed to wash my face, neck, and shoulders when I got home. A hot towel wipe down would've been nice. I agree with another reviewer that this is not a relaxing facial. Sabine is witty and funny but will talk the entire time about how great she is at waxing, skincare, etc. It was slightly offputting. I am absolutely furious with my eyebrow wax. I declined multiple times because I prefer to do my own. She insisted she would not change the shape and would just clean up. My eyebrows are completely ruined. She overly thinned them, shortened them, they're different lengths from the center, reduced my arch, and have completely different angles. After crying most of yesterday because it's my face, I'm just livid every time I look in the mirror. I'm mostly angry at myself for letting her pressure me. I'm just hoping that they grow back nicely and not patchy so I can fix them. Now, I have to deal with months of the awkward growing out phase if they grow back properly with any luck.

But honestly, it turned out to be fantastic and one of the best experiences I've ever had. Ling started with a scalp analysis to check the condition of my scalp before and after the treatment, and the improvement was amazing. I chose the stress head spa treatment, and it was incredibly detailed and deeply relaxing. Joann performed my service, and she was absolutely wonderful--my scalp felt fresh and my hair felt so smooth afterward, and the tonics and products she used smelled incredible and felt even better. Beyond the scalp treatment, she also included a neck and back massage along with some stretching, which was far more than I expected. My mom had a facial with Lily, and we both also got massages from Ling--she was absolutely thrilled with her experience. I can't wait to book my next session. The environment was peaceful, clean, and welcoming. The service was immaculate, and their equipment is modern and top-of-the-line. If you're looking for a truly relaxing and high-quality experience, this is definitely the place to go!

The products they use smell divine while being gentle on the skin. Conveniently located with tons of parking. I've been twice for a scalp massage. Absolutely amazing.

I will definitely be back. My face is glowing and the knots in my neck are gone. Great spot for self-care or as a gift.
