My experience at Aviara Salon was my first at any salon in about 2 or 3 years. I've had my share of expensive and mediocre salon visits in the past, but not at Aviara. Their prices are totally reasonable, and my first time there, everyone was so welcoming and cheerful. My hairdresser, Sabrina, took the time to listen to my concerns about my hair, and she offered great advice for how to get it where I want it to be. She was also the first hairdresser I've had who didn't suggest just chopping off half my hair to "fix" the problem, but rather suggested a plan to slowly get rid of the parts that are thinning and encourage new growth. She also gave me the first highlights I've ever had and I felt so pampered the whole time. She even made me a hot chocolate! Not to mention, my hair looks stunning!! Overall, this salon's staff treats you like you matter and genuinely wants you to have a good experience. I will definitely be returning!!

I just have to gush a bit about the tech who does my nails - Val. I was recommended to her by a friend, because her nails always looked perfect, and I'm so happy with my decision!
Val is absolutely lovely and welcoming, her work is professional, gorgeous, and the space is so perfectly sanitary.
The spa is located in a pleasant building near some very decent restaurants, and the interior is bright, feminine and sparkly without being tacky, and somehow always smells great (not like acetone / chemicals).
I do a VERY physical job, and have a relatively hectic life, and these nails stay PERFECT for three weeks at a time every time! The only time I've ever chipped one has been me literally chopping at it with a cleaver - and I was able to fix it with an emery board and they still looked stunning.
COULD NOT RECOMMEND MORE.
Valerie gave me the best manicure and pedicure ever!
She was very gentle with my problem feet and made me feel less self conscious about them.
Very happy with the results.
Sabrina did an amazing job!!!! She listened to what I wanted and executed perfectly. I love the way my hair came out, and I chopped close to 9 inches off! Everyone there was so welcoming and friendly. The salon is very clean and comfortable. Would recommend!
