In the over $5000 I have spent on laser hair removal, I have had zero results. It also took up a year of my life....going every 6-7 weeks. So no sun, tanning, etc for nearly a year! I sugar waxed for 10 years and had better results with that. I will be expecting some sort of compensation for my time and money. One year and five grand later is a lot to ask of somebody and give zero results.

You only need to let your hair grow for a week to get it done, unlike with the regular waxing. When done, there is no lingering pain! I was amazed how quick, no mess and easy procedure it was!

She makes you feel like your session is the most important. I have done several different services all of which I had a beautiful outcome.

I have been going to Christina for the last couple years to have Brazilian sugaring treatments…read moresince she was in a salon near Moonlight Beach... and I hope she always stays in town because I can't imagine going to anyone else! The new salon,which has been open for a couple weeks now, is such a better location! It's newer, has fresh floors and paint, and is more spacious which makes me feel even more comfortable getting my sugaring done. Since her move to this location, her Brazilian sugaring service is just as great. I have not yet had a spa or facial service, but I look forward to trying them someday. For anyone wondering how sugaring is different than waxing, you really ought to just try it. I have a thicker hair texture and, since switching to sugaring, I have fewer ingrown hairs and slower growth. By the way, if you do have any difficult ingrown hairs, let Christina know and she may be able to extract them for you. :) So happy for their move to this beautiful new place.

Absolutely love Raiza at Avalon Laser! I went in for Dysport and was genuinely impressed by how…read moreprofessional, knowledgeable, and gentle she was throughout the entire process. She took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made me feel completely at ease. The results were exactly what I was hoping for super natural, smooth, and refreshed-looking without that "frozen" effect. Raiza really has a great eye and a light touch. You can tell she truly cares about achieving subtle, balanced results that enhance your features rather than overdo them. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who's not only skilled but also kind, attentive, and detail-oriented :)

On June 21, 2025, I visited Avalon Laser to treat a few facial spider veins after seeing the…read moredoctor's work on social media and reading positive Google reviews. What I expected to be a routine cosmetic procedure unfortunately resulted in a much more difficult outcome for me (photos attached). Shortly after the treatment, leaky blisters formed, and about a week later they developed into scabs on the treated areas. When the scabs eventually came off, many areas appeared indented and concerning. During virtual follow-up consultations, I was told the healing process appeared to be normal. However, my skin continued to worsen, and I later sought care at an emergency room, where the injuries were documented as burns and I was referred for dermatologic follow-up. Avalon Laser offered additional treatment options, including a CO laser session or microneedling at their facility, and also suggested that I see a dermatologist in the Los Angeles area. I did undergo one CO laser session with Avalon Laser, but I ultimately decided not to continue treatment at the clinic because I no longer felt comfortable proceeding there. To their credit, the clinic checked in with me virtually on a regular basis and offered encouragement during the healing process. However, my recovery has been much longer and more challenging than I expected based on how my skin appeared. Since then, I have consulted with several specialists and undergone multiple treatments in an effort to improve my skin. The recovery process has been lengthy, painful, and uncertain. The clinic refunded the cost of the original treatment, which I appreciated, but it has not come close to covering the many additional medical visits, treatments, medications, and skincare products I have needed since then. The emotional impact has also been very difficult. For weeks I struggled to sleep and often cried at night. I became withdrawn and stopped seeing friends because I felt embarrassed about my appearance. What began as a simple cosmetic procedure has turned into a long and ongoing recovery. I attempted to pursue compensation through legal counsel and sent a demand letter, but I did not receive a response. I also followed up by email without success. I am sharing my personal experience so that others can be aware and carefully consider their options before undergoing treatment.

It was for a full body wax, but when I called to make the appointment, Minda just kept saying "it's soooo much work". I told her that it's fine, I won't buy it if she doesn't want to do it. She said she would still honor the deal but kept repeating it's so much work and would take hours and that Groupon was supposed to take the ad down. It felt like she wanted me to offer to pay more, but I just said it sounds like she doesn't want to do it so I can go elsewhere and she said she would prefer that. I think turning someone away in that way was unprofessional and it made me really uncomfortable that she kept telling me how much work it is. She shouldn't offer a service she isn't willing to follow through with. It was just a very uncomfortable experience.

Even after she left the other place she worked at, I followed her to where she is currently at because of her customer service and attitude towards her line of work. She puts you at ease quickly and the waxing is quick and to the point. Her prices are reasonable and affordable considering the north county market. Note: I've tried hard wax, regular wax and sugaring. Sugaring is by far the least painful (personal opinion) and quickest (personal opinion again). It does not burn your skin and the paste is made from natural ingredients. Happy waxing!!! Note 2: Scheduling is easy and she's really good about working with your schedule to fit you in. She's located in the Bristle Salon (located on El Camino Real).
