Do not go here!:
DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE AFRICAN AMERICAN! Worst experience I have ever had in my life. Took my daughter to have her hair washed, deep conditioned, and blown out.. The student washed, conditioned it and got 1/2 way done blowing it, to realize she hadn't rinsed the conditioner out.. So she re-rinsed it and had to start over blowing. She had never worked on African American hair before, and was doing the best she knew how. The supervisors/teachers came over and said if your daughter is going to cry we won't do her hair. No problem, she won't cry, she's ok. Well an older blonde teacher/instructor comes over and said "NO we won't do her hair!" We had been there for 2 1/2 hours already. She asked if I had ever been there before, said she had told another white mom with a black girl that they wouldn't do her hair either because the girl was too tender headed. I had NEVER EVER been here, nor will I ever go there again!
So we paid for our services & left. We did not get a "I am sorry from them or anything!" They had us leave because the teachers did not want to instruct their student on how to blow out my daughters hair! Seriously, can you believe this? The teachers not helping their students. No direction or help, just give up & get them out as fast as you can...
SO - if you are thinking of being a student at this school DON"T DO IT! If you want to get your hair done, DO NOT GO HERE! Students where nice, but the teachers/ supervisors should all be fired. My daughter walked out and started bawling from embarrassment...

Great Beauty Teachers:
Avalon School of Cosmetology provided me with the right knowledge and skills that I need to make my business boom and grow. I was able to learn correct beauty techniques, and my clients are benefiting from this. I would go back to this school anytime to learn more from their up to date curriculum to further enhance my skills and boost my confidence.

No One Will Touch My Hair Except Avalon:
After my first visit to Avalon for a hair cut, I said to myself that no body else will touch my hair except someone from Avalon. I really feel great every time I had my hair cut there. The price is right and the service is awesome. You must try to visit there so you will believe on what I am saying.
