This was my first time ever being waxed and Mia was great. She was very quick, I may have been in there for 15-20mins at most. She talked to me the entire time which helped keep. I would be lying if I said areas still aren't tender after hours of having it done, but they are. It's not too bad though. Just breathe, pull your stomach taut, and talk to her and you'll be fine. Also because of COVID, she has on a mask and a face shield so I felt safe.

I went with my girlfriend to get waxed and have been going to her for my skin care services ever since!! Requesting her services is super easy as you can book online through her website. She is always on time and super quick, especially when it comes to waxing! Sunny has a very sweet and calming personality, which always puts me at ease. Her suite is lovely and has calming vibes as well. I come all the way from DC to have Sunny perform my skin care! If you are in the Upper Marlboro/Bowie/Crofton/Gambrills/Odenton area (or not lol), check out her services! She is worth the drive!

My first-and last bikini wax was for my honeymoon and I remember half way through it thinking "why am I doing this to myself". The pain had my eyes tearing up- and I am a tattooed lady-not a stranger to pain. Anyway, I decided to give it a go again because the bumps from shaving are annoying as all hell. Wendy made me feel comfortable, relaxed, had great conversation to distract me and practically no pain. Not a wince, not a tear. Looking forward to being shave free this summer. Highly recommend her to all.

I've been getting Brazilians for the past 6 years. This place is RUSHED. You will be expected to strip while the esthetician is in the room and you will get dressed while she's talking to you. The esthetician only talks to you about waxing, not super personable. Nothing there to make you comfortable. No pillows or decor or conversation. The entire time I was there took 15 minutes. She didn't let me check to see if everything looked good. So, you're just guessing what to tip. After, they force you to book your next appointment. I guess to make you come back. But personally, I'm not sure that I will. I'm already uncomfortable being spread eagle naked for a stranger, but nothing about this place made it any easier. Staff was vaping at the side of the building. Yelling you can hear from the room you're getting waxed in. Esthetician talking at the speed of light about your hair growth pattern.

I will not be returning to Avalon Nails and Spa in Crofton and I would not recommend this location…read moreto anyone. I decided to visit this location on my day off because I wanted to grab a bite to eat from a restaurant in close proximity. My services included a pedicure and a manicure with builder gel on my natural nails. Overall, the experience was decent. However, my nail tech was not very friendly and by the end of my experience, I determined he wasn't a very good nail tech either. Once the individual at the front desk explained to the tech my requested services, I sat in the chair and he proceeded to work on my feet. He said absolutely nothing to me. I had to engage him in conversation and it was a bit forced. My pedicure was mid. The polish job and the shaping left a lot to be desired. The same technician did my manicure. I explained to him that one of my nails was starting to break and needed repair. He explained to me that once the builder gel was applied I would be OK. Because I didn't think builder jail alone would be sufficient, I asked him again was he certain that would be all I needed for the repair. He confirmed and stated again that the builder gel would do the job. This leads me to my low rating for this location. After spending almost $200 on my pedicure and my manicure with builder gel, I found myself at a different nail salon the very next day to repair the nail that I originally had the issue with. The builder gel did NOT hold or repair my nail. I don't know if it's because he did not apply it properly or did not use sufficient product. Either way, the nail continued to breakthrough the builder gel. The only highlight of this experience, was the polish job that was done by a different technician. She did a good job of replicating the nail design that I wanted. It's possible, my experience may have been positive if she had been the one to do both my pedicure and manicure. She may have been able to determine the best procedure for addressing my nail repair. Again, I will not be returning to this location. There are far too many nail salons in the area with skilled nail technicians that appreciate your business and offer a positive experience and great customer service. Avalon Nails & Spa in Crofton is not one of them! #TakeYourHandsAndFeetSomewhereElse #GoodCustomerServiceMatters #Don'tTakeMyDollarsForGranted

The facility is very sleek and modernly decorated and always smells amazingly; I absolutely love the place. My facials with Jessica are always great. Jessica uses her years of aesthetic experience to educate me on how to adjust my skincare routine at home to get the most out of my monthly facials. While I usually get the signature facial, we often switch up the treatment based on my skincare needs at the appointment. Jessica brilliantly adjusts the services without hesitation to give my skin exactly what it needs. I can count on Jessica for product recommendations for my combination, melanated skin. As a dark skinned Black woman, it can be challenging to find the right products for my skin that balance cleansing, moisture, and hydration and DON'T leave a chalky white cast. Jessica understands this widespread deficiency in the skincare industry and uses only some of the best high quality brands in her spa that work well for all skin types and colors--even melanated skin like mine. Overall, this is a top notch spa for men and women and I highly recommend it.

After checking in, I was given a tour of the facility and shown the relaxation room, where I waited for my service. The staff also showed me where to find the complimentary beverages, including juice, mint- and lemon-infused water, and tea. I was escorted to my locker and shown how to use it. The locker room was clean and included showers and restrooms. After changing into the provided robe and sandals, I grabbed a refreshing cool washcloth with cucumber slices and a cup of juice before settling into the relaxation room. The atmosphere was peaceful, quiet, and exactly what I needed to unwind before my massage. My massage was with Rob, and he was absolutely amazing. Those hands are a gift from God! He applied the perfect amount of pressure and worked every area that needed attention. I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. I would definitely return and would happily book with Rob again.

Who is Robert Andrew? The drive here from the city is a good 45 minutes drive if you don't have traffic, so add traffic and now I'm driving to the boonies for spa day, the math didn't math. However, I finally made my way to the boondocks and was quite surprised, not quite the spa I'm used to but not bad. They do not have a relax room or at least I wasn't offered that. Not sure if that's because they were busy or I got overlooked. I know relaxation rooms, their "tranquility" room, is likely small as most are but, I'm used to being told to come early or stay late to utilize all amenities. This wasn't done for me. The ONLY thing I love is that this place has couple rooms. Massages for couples, ummmmm YES please. I also love that they have packages for full day services that include lunch. A all day spa day is something every woman should do a few times a year. Not many places cater to this type of service anymore so for me, that's a plus here. Overall, cute spa, clean, and somewhat upscale. I wouldn't drive to this spa for service but if I lived in the area, I would come. Prices are reasonable. 3 stars for me only cause they do not have valet service, it's self parking, I didn't get to use the tranquility room, maybe it was packed, who knows, but if you advertise a tranquility room let your customers use it. If I'm paying 500$ plus for spa services I want full service from the door to the spa table and back! 3 stars but would return!
