After moving from Woodstock to Atlanta, I tried two salons closer to the city... and let's say I…read morelearned my lesson. Nobody does it like the stylists at Salon Vanessa. Jerny has been doing my hair for years & every appointment feels like catching up with your bestie who also happens to be amazing at hair. He gives honest advice, always knows what will look best, never pushes extra services. He remembers my family& always asks about my mom and sister (who he does too) and makes getting my hair done one of the highlights of my week. 10/10 would recommend

I recently learned the value of good skincare. You know, I've gotten away with it my whole life,…read morejust splashing some water on my face and drying off with a towel, but I'm taking it a bit more seriously these days. So I was in the market for a facial, and I googled spas near me and found Salon and Spa Vanessa. I chose it because it was the closest thing to where I was, lucky me. It sits in an old historic home. It's an Aveda spa. This whole place smells amazing. They've got great products. And then obviously, they're a good enough high-quality spa and salon to be able to carry the Aveda line in the first place. I understand they're fairly selective. So I got in same day for a facial, same morning, which was great because I hate waiting. Worked out perfect for me. The facial was great. Excellent experience from start to finish. Staff were warm and welcoming. I picked up my favorite candle, some hand wash, and got a little voucher for some money off my next different treatment since I was a first-time customer, new customer. Parking is free if you're there for the salon. Otherwise, you have to pay behind the building. Really nice experience. I would definitely go back and recommend it to anyone in the Woodstock area looking for a nice spa treatment.

I was expecting it to be a lot busier, but it was nice that there weren't too many people there, so you could have rooms to yourself. (We went on a Sunday evening.)

The slushies are delicious and so refreshing to sip on since it's so warm inside. And the roasted eggs are a must get!

My skin is very smooth and soft after the service. :) They have many different saunas to experience. I really liked going to each one and then visiting the cold room after. Plenty of spots to relax and lay down outside of the saunas too. The food court was nice too; they have some basic korean dishes/snacks, including roasted eggs. Their drinks are great. Would come back again It was pretty busy on a Sat evening so I would plan to go earlier if you don't want a crowd.

The interior was calming and they had cold water, drinks, and an assortment of snacks for customers to enjoy. The deep tissue massage itself was so phenomenal.

Zhennette explained whah she was doing at each step of the way and continually checked in to make sure that I was okay and wasn't feeling too much pain.

Parking at Avalon can be a little crazy, but I would suggest parking in the uncovered lot behind the spa or if you're lucky enough to find a spot in the covered area. Upon arriving, I was greeted by one of the many receptionist who took my name, confirmed what I was having done and took me back to the women's changing dressing room. They provide you with a robe and slippers that you will wear the entire stay of your visit. When entering the women's dressing room, there are many lockers along the left side of the room, where you will create your four digit code and leave your belongings in there (I did keep my phone with me as I have a small smaller child in school) I just kept my phone on silent. Once you have changed, you can walk into the waiting area where there are two rooms that you can sit in and wait for your masseuse, facial, mani/pedi person to come and get you. Snacks are provided as well as champagne (upon request), cucumber/lemon water, and cozy blankets to keep you warm. I did the head to toe package which included a full body, Swedish massage, a facial, and a manicure. For my massage I had Richard, and he was soft spoken, so kind, made sure that I had everything I needed, made me feel extremely comfortable, was very vocal about where he was going to massage, and the pressure was a perfect light, medium. Once my massage was finished, he left the room and allowed me to get dressed. I left the door cracked as instructed once I was done dressing, he took me back to the waiting area, where I waited for my facial. I am definitely requesting him the next time I go back. Misa then came and got me for my facial, and I did the soothe + hydrate and let me tell you!! I am EXTREMELY picky about my face, and Misa kept me very informed and comfortable about what myface needed, she did do a blackhead extraction, and that was a little painful, but my face loved everything that she did to it!! I absolutely loved her energy and her kindness. She will definitely be my go to for facials in the future. Once my facial was complete, I went back into the waiting area and waited for the manicurist to come get me for my manicure. They took me to the other side of the spa house where they had a fully equipped nail salon. And that was just your basic nail experience. My hands definitely felt hydrated as they used warm oil and wax to hydrate my hands. Now this place is VERY expensive, but it is worth the price. I will be back with my husband to do a couples massage and facial.

FULL SPA DAY. Meeting Sandra (owner) was pleasant as I was trying to set up a full day of pampering…read morefor my wife on her birthday. Sandra was very responsive and gave me a personalized tour of the facilities. The attention to detail in each room was immaculate. She helped me understand what my wife will be experiencing throughout her day. NOTE: This review will be based on my wife's perspective as she went through the entire experience. The check-in process was easy. You sign a waiver and you let Sandra know which essential oils and theme you would like in each room. They provide you a robe to change into as you begin the spa day. You start off in the infrared sauna for 30 min., then a choice of deep tissue or swedish massage, then a body exfoliation/wrap, then you shower off, and then you end with a facial. In summary: PROS: attention to the little details throughout the experience (fresh roses, comfy robes, kind workers); resting area was comfortable with fresh fruit, lemon and mint infused water, and a selection of hot tea; the exfoliation and body wrap done by Sandra were very nice. CONS: the walls were so thin that you could hear conversations in the next room and the lawn maintenance outside (which wasn't a peaceful experience); Sandra had another person conduct the massage and facial (who barely spoke English) - she didn't do everything she said she was going to do in the massage (she was to focus mostly on the upper back area due to more tension being on the upper body, but didn't); also she started massaging the body facing up which lead to very little time on the upper back area; my wife, being the mother of our 3 kids barely gets time to pamper herself and has been hinting at needing a facial for awhile, when then"analysis" was done on her skin, there was a shriek of horror at how her skin looked (which didn't make my wife feel great about herself) and she felt pressured into a $25 up charge. For a total of $350+ for this service, I would rate this experience at 3.5. I trusted that my wife was going to be taken care of, which she was, but it's certainly not worth the price given all the cons.

Other services come at a cost. Swedish Massage was well worth the $100 price for one hour. Be advised that tipping is expected. So, have some cash ready or be prepared for an online form of gratuity. There is food available, but it isn't that great. Maybe a six out of ten. While certain amenities are free, like soap, shampoo and shaving cream, everything else comes at a price. Saunas are average at best. If you go on a weekend, expect a lot of bachelorette parties and girls events. Also, be aware that there are some people who use this as a cheap alternative to a hotel. You can expect to spend at least $150 for a visit here
