    White tip with nude. Thank you Kathy!! I love them!
    Stephanie M.

    Update: came back and got this Mickey Mouse set done by Sarah (I believe that was her name) and I'm in LOVE with them. The vibe of the shop is always so warm and welcoming. I love coming here.

    Sloppy nail polish application causing ridges ..
    Saori S.

    Idk how they justify charging $35 for a gel nail color change.. and FINE, if you're going to charge a premium at least do a GOOD JOB. My nails were rushed, done sloppy and now have creases. The shape was fine before coming here and she filed them so poorly that I even had to ask to use the filer myself .. I have nail polish all over the place. AWFUL.

    Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience at this nail salon. The technician used different nail tips, which made the color look inconsistent across my nails. The shape was also uneven ( I wanted coffin), and the polish application looked messy. I also mentioned that my hand was burning under the UV light, but my concern wasn't addressed and I was simply told to put my hand back in the lamp. While my other hand was fine, the experience overall felt rushed and the results did not meet my expectations. (Edit) I went back to have it fixed she just filed it and put some top coat again. A little bit better She said because I wanted rounder shape that's why the shape was like that, so I told her if I wanted rounder shape then why are the others sharp I had to explain to her that the nails were inconsistent..

    White paint left, unable to remove as it is not regular polish. I wasn't successful removing it with oil or shower.

    The worst. The nails didn't even last two weeks. I didn't go back for a fourth time to repair. They had no interest in repairing them correctly on day 1. They just continued to buff and buff away the dip without re-dipping.

    This set is builder gel with cat eye polish and Christmas designs.

    This set is builder gel with cat eye polish and Christmas designs. I've come to Avatar nails for a few years now and it's been nothing but Amazing! The customer service is great. I specifically go to Amy and she is the sweetest and most professional nail tech I have ever been to. She really takes her time to perfect her work and listen to exactly what you are looking for. Amy does everything from pedicures, manicures, gel, dipping powder and gel builder. Her work is amazing and she is such a great person. I recommend her to anyone that is looking for great quality nails!

    ruined my nails

    Went in to get acrylics, previously had glue-on cheap nails from target that i asked to be removed. She started ripping the nails off and when I said it hurt and asked her to use acetone she said no. On my 7th nail she ripped half of the nail off (picture attached) and then brought out the acetone and products to remove the last ones correctly. I didn't let her finish and got up and said i didn't need it anymore and will never be back. Be warned and go at your own risk.

    Dip manicure with catseye top coat and cute christmas designs!

    Amy at Avatar is AMAZING!! She is also so kind, gentle and pays attention to detail! I am always in love with the finished product when I see her and she can do cute little designs perfect for the holidays! 10/10 recommend

    Ask for Ana. She does my nails all the time and she is great. Very detailed oriented. Powder dip is my favorite. U don't feel rushed being here unlike other places. All the staff are really nice too. This place is great overall, my go-to nail shop. Located right off Alcosta Blvd next to gas station. High recommend.

    I was recommended here by my friends. First off, I called in the morning for an acrylic soak off removal. They let me know it was $15 when I came in I was seated immediately. They proceeded to flick my nails off with a nail tip which is horrible for your nail beds. I then decided to get a gel manicure which I saw online there was a gel change for $25. I told the nail lady (Thuy Dao) I wanted to do a gel change, she said that I can do a gel manicure for $40, and the basic change would be $35. She also said if I get a service the $15 removal would go to $10. But then if I got basic gel manicure (no care of cuticle) it would only be $5 cheaper. I told her I have to go to an appt in 10 mins, she says it's only taking this long because I'm taking so long to choose a color (she said she didn't have the color I originally chose). She proceeded to dip my hand in a bowl of water?? She said she can do it in 5-10 mins which I totally could've done the gel change for because I wasn't going to have the time for all the extra services. She paints my nails quickly and skillfully but points out a bump on my nail which was caused by ripping my nails off. Overall, I will not be returning. It seems that the manicurist upcharged me because I checked the website and the salon menu afterwards and is there is no $35 gel service. Just a $25 gel change and $40 shellac manicure.

    I first time visited today, and tried this nail salon for dip manicure and gel pedicure. My first impression of the Salon it looked clean and neatly kept from inside. I was received with smile. I find my manicurist very sweet and kind. She took care of everything I asked for, 10/10 service here. Anna is skilled and polite nail artist. I am planning to visit again for sure. I would recommend Avatar to friends:)

I have had bad experiences with European Wax Center in the past, more times than I'd like to. But they are just the most convenient location wise and making appointments. I had moved to Pleasanton and was fearful of having to find a new waxer. I decided to give it a try and I ended up with a waxer named Katie. & let me tell you, this girl is a GEM! Her professionalism is elite, and she's gentle and quick with her waxes. Something about her technique makes it pretty painless. She's very thorough and pays attention to detail which I truly appreciate! Because many times, waxers get lazy. I've been seeing Katie for almost a year now and she's really one of the best waxers I've experienced. And I've been getting waxed for over a decade now. PLUS she's very kind and sweet, the ambiance she provides when she's waxing is top tier. She matches your vibes/ preference. There's some days I want to chat and some days I don't and she catches on quickly. She's really just fantastic everyone! If you find yourself wanting to try this location, try Katie. You will not be disappointed!! She's one of the best!! I do want to shout out Yvonne as well. Katie was not available one of the days I had a wax scheduled. Usually I'd wait for my waxer for another day, but this was before a holiday and I needed it done. I asked them to put me with another experienced waxer as I was worried I wouldn't get as good of service as Katie. Yvonne did a fantastic job as well, I'd recommend her too.

    I've been going to Monique at Radiant Waxing for a little over a year now, and I truly cannot…read morerecommend her enough! From my very first appointment, she has always made me feel completely comfortable and welcome. As a bigger girl, waxing, especially Brazilians and glutes, was something I was initially very nervous and self-conscious about. Monique has never once made me feel uncomfortable or judged in any way. She creates such a safe and positive environment that I actually look forward to my appointments with her. She radiates so much positive energy, has an amazing attitude, and is so easy to talk to. She holds a conversation effortlessly and makes the entire appointment feel comfortable and relaxed. While her waxing skills are absolutely amazing, her people skills are truly through the roof. Monique puts 110% effort into every service she provides and has incredible attention to detail. I get Brazilians and glutes done with her, and she always takes the time to go back over everything and make sure she gets every single hair. I never feel like she is rushing through an appointment just to get to the next client. She is also extremely knowledgeable about esthetics and skincare. I have sensitive skin and have dealt with ingrown hairs, and Monique has always taken the time to educate me on what products I should be using and how to properly care for my skin between appointments. You can tell that she genuinely knows her craft and cares about getting the best possible results for every client. Monique's dedication is also incredible. Even throughout her pregnancy, she continues to show up and give her clients the same amazing level of service, which says so much about her work ethic, drive, and commitment to the people who trust her with their services. I would confidently recommend Monique to absolutely anyone because I know she will give them a 10/10 experience and results. She deserves all the praise and definitely a raise! She is honestly the reason I continue coming back to Radiant Waxing, and I feel very lucky to have found her.

Radiant was able to get me rescheduled at the same in San Ramon with Katie. She is honestly the best waxer I've ever had! I had gone a long time between waxing and she was so gentle.
