Because of Kaitlyn I have a signature look. I went for years and years (and years and years)…read morewithout a haircut because I was traumatized by mediocre stylists who a) had their own agenda or b) didn't listen to what I wanted. And then I read about this rare (what I thought was a mythical) creature - a stylist who actively cared about what her clients wanted, while also providing brutally honest feedback about their current hair situation and their hair vision, but then worked with them to achieve something otherworldly. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating, but that's how I've felt. I came to Kaitlyn with a tangly brown limp mess. I wanted an ombre (a multi toned hair effect) of my natural hair color to white then blue. Instead she offered up a moderate balyage (highlights blending seamlessly) of aquatic. The next time I saw her, more of my hair was balayaged with aquatic, and now basically my whole head is aquatic colored. She transformed me into a sea queen, and everywhere I go people compliment my mermaid hair (no, really, they do). And I legit had nothing to do with it. I never thought I'd have ocean-inspired hair, but it looks so natural that the first time I did it people were like "yeah, that's how you were always supposed to look." WHAT? She also trims me up and offers advice on how to manage the style (french braids are a go, messy buns always work, pony's should be avoided, and can we bring back the scrunchie already?). And I know, without a doubt, that the moment I were to walk in and say, "I'm done with this, could I have something 'normal' please?" she'd find the exact perfect look for me, my face structure, my skin tone, my personality. My partner also sees her every four to five weeks; she keeps his hair and beard line fresh. Love the studio itself - it's small but very modern, minimalist chic. There's ONLY street parking, so if you're in it for more than two hours you might wanna consider Ubering. Also, there are other talented stylists who work here, so maybe go see them? Because Kaitlyn's booking up way to fast and far out now for my liking. (No, it's okay, really, you can see her too... Iet's live in a world where everyone loves their gorgeous hairdos).

Unprofessional, Misleading, and Dishonest…read more As a first-time bride(like most bride's), I relied on Kristin's professionalism to guide me through the process -- but instead, I was misled and overcharged. She told me she could "make it work" if I brought in my own hair stylist, and even accepted an introduction to that person. At no point did she make it clear that her pricing wouldn't change -- even if she wasn't providing hair services. By the time she revealed that I'd still be charged full price, it was too late to adjust. If you're a wedding vendor working with someone new to this (like most brides), you have a responsibility to be transparent and fill in the gaps -- not take advantage of them. I ended up feeling cornered and exploited. I would strongly caution anyone against working with Kristin unless you're prepared to overpay for services you don't receive.

After some quick googling I found Lavender and put myself on the waitlist for the next two days, assuming there was no chance I'd get an opening. I was thrilled when I got an email about an opening, but less thrilled about the price - I've gone to plenty of high end salons, but this was going to be about 1/3 more than I've ever paid to get my hair cut. But desperate times call for desperate measures and this hair needed cutting. The salon itself is beautiful with lush plants everywhere. The owner, Laurel, spent more time working to understand my hair (wavy with a mind of its own) and lifestyle (low-maintenance, no time to spend on hair) than anyone ever has. Ultimately I told her I didn't know what I wanted and was open to ideas. Our conversation during the cut was nice and not forced, which is not always the case with hair appointments. I felt like she really "got" me - when she finished my cut it was pretty perfect. She knew that I'd want it long enough to tuck behind my ears, even though we hadn't even discussed that. She knew how to cut it in such a way that it would wear well even with my laziness about my hair. She gave me some quick styling tips without pushing products on me. It was a great experience. Several months later and it's still looking fantastic. Again, the price definitely made me hesitate but since I rarely get my hair cut I could rationalize. I'd absolutely go back next time I'm in Portland.
