About

Avalon Nail Salon sits on Shepherd Drive in the River Oaks area of Houston. Nails are the center of the business, with manicures in a wide range of colors and styles and pedicures that can be enjoyed with a view of the salon's gardens.

Beyond polish and nail enhancements, the salon adds body and skin services. Full body deep tissue massage is offered for athletes, for clients under stress, and for anyone who simply wants to feel better overall. Facials are offered to improve how the skin feels and looks, and the salon says its facials are guaranteed to leave clients feeling and looking better.

For nail enhancements, the menu includes solar nails, an acrylic method that lengthens the nail by building acrylic directly onto the natural nail. The salon says this causes less damage to the nail underneath and needs fills less often. Shellac, dip powder, SNS (Signature Nail Systems) and Next Gen Nails round out the options. The salon says shellac can last up to two weeks without chipping and that dip powder is quicker than traditional acrylics and involves no toxic fumes. SNS gives the look of gel nails, and Next Gen is a powder technique that the salon describes as giving gel-level hardness, both without UV light.

The salon also lists several Houston awards, including a Houston Press voter's choice award and a Channel 11 Best Nail Salon award, along with earlier manicure and pedicure honors from local outlets. These are the salon's own claims.

Pedicures can be taken in a spot overlooking the salon's gardens.
