I went here about a year ago for a haircut and to get balayage for the first time and it was great! I did make the mistake of thinking it would only take two hours (completely on me ). I do recommend eating or bringing snacks haha. I loved the cut and the color (: Megan Solberg was my stylist and she was so kind and considerate! I didn't feel awkward or uncomfortable. Definitely a welcoming, professional, and clean place. L read more

Megan Solberg is a hair wizard! I was in need of a color correction and was apprehensive about trying someone new. Megan made me feel comfortable immediately with her warm and friendly demeanor, and listened to what I wanted and needed made me a part of the decision making process. Her shampooing is a spa experience, and her curly cut skills are guru status. I'm so glad I found her! read more

I got my hair cut with Grace over the summer and I am in love with my hair! I had been cutting my own hair for 2 years and she evened it out without cutting too much off and gave me some shape. If you love lived in layers, texture, dimensional color and alternative looks, she's your stylist! Highly recommend. The vibe of the salon is really nice and relaxing. I will be going back to her for future cuts and maybe some fun color soon :) read more

Kasey Curtain is the best! She's been coloring and cutting my hair for 2.5 years, and I've even referred her to my sister. It's not in my best interest to write this review for fear she gets too popular and in-demand and I never get in to see her again, but what the heck! She's worth it. The compliments on my balayage and general hair health have never been more frequent, and she's really helped me navigate those terrible irreversible choices to do what's in my hair's best interest. Highly recommended for anyone, but if you have long hair / are dark-haired but like to play with bleach and color as I do without entirely frying your hair, know you'll be in the best hands. read more

The key to a good haircut is feeling extremely confident after you leave the salon chair; assured in yourself and your appearance. That's how I felt from my exceptional haircut from Grace of Spades at Portland's NiEUW salon. Highest recommendations for rock 'n' roll hairstyles and beyond! read more

Megan Solberg gives outstanding haircuts at a reasonable price. She was able to take my general idea of what I wanted and make a beautiful hairstyle. I also appreciated her recommendations for hair products. read more

I'm not reviewing an actual haircut as that never happened. I'm reviewing how this business seems to run. I had an appointment for 7/7/24 at 1pm with Grace. I got my reminder via text the day before. I live about 35 minutes away but I really wanted to try a new place out and my hair had gotten very long and needed some help. I was really looking forward to this. My husband dropped me off at 1pm and no one is inside that I could see. I knock and I wait around for 15 minutes. I call twice and no answers and finally leave a message. No one has returned my call, which is such a bummer. Won't be trying this place out. Wasted my time. read more

I cannot say enough good things about this salon! My first experience here was great from the moment I walked in the door, until the moment I walked out. I came to see Dee after two previous hairdressers wrecked my hair. After chatting with them about what happened, they knew what to do and got right to it. I left feeling fabulous and have received so many compliments on my haircut! I really appreciate how Dee took the time to understand my hair and communicated everything they were doing. They also made some great recommendations to alleviate my hair issues. Dee has earned a new, loyal client! read more

Let me just say that this was a wonderful experience and some may say I am bias, but Kasey did an amazing job. She has so much knowledge and passion for what she does and you can hear it in her voice when she explains the process of what u are wanting and answers all my questions. Not to mention the rest of the team who are equally fabulous I'm sure. They were all super friendly as well as helpful to one another which is probably rare in this industry but it's so nice to see women empowering women and men who support that! Oh yeah and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY NEW HAIR! read more

I was going to be in Portland for work and had recently got a not so great layer cut from my usual stylist. I wanted a curly bob for some time and figured now was probably my best opportunity since the layers were off. I was searching for curly cut specialists and found Meghan Solberg. I booked with her and showed her my inspo photo and she nailed it. She showed me how to style it and what products she likes as well. Super helpful and I wish I lived here so I could be a regular customer! Hoping my stylist at home can try to trim her cut when it's time. read more

This review is for Manda as I see them in Seattle but wanted to share about their work. I hope to visit Portland and this salon someday! Headline is they are the BEST and have taken me from dark to light, short to long and everything in between. Pre, through, and post pandemic Manda has been a bright light in ensuring I feel my best when it comes to my hair. They are beyond talented, super consultative when I don't know what the heck I want to do and an all around awesome person! Including a few photos - they don't do their work justice & the real treat is when I'm on week 6 and beyond when my cut & color have grown out with ease and I still feel great! Highly recommend Manda! They are especially talented in rad cuts and vivid colors! And just as awesome at the warm blends I go for too! :) read more

Megan Solberg has been my stylist for years - she is now in Portland at NIEUW. My hair is naturally wavy/curly and fine. No one has been able to create as much shape and volume as her. She always takes the time to talk to be about different shifts in my lifestyle and needs, and creates the best version of my hair to suit whatever is going on. She also has an amazing sense of color and routinely adds depth and dimension through various techniques - balayage, all over color, and root taps. She is also an efficient worker which I appreciate! She stays up to date on current techniques and always creates a vibe. Whenever I leave the salon I get complimented and feel like a million bucks. Thanks Megan for years of excellency! read more

Queen Megan Solberg is the cut and color whisperer! I have naturally curly hair and she manages to get me blonde without damaging my hair. I actually have hair growth for the first time in years. if I could give 100 stars I would! read more

Megan Solberg is amazingly talented and has been doing my hair in the Bay Area for years. She has a very cool vibe, and knew just what to do with my curly mop! I love her color work and she has transformed many heads of hair on people I adore. I can't recommend her enough and would absolutely fly to a Portland to have my hair done by her. If you're already there, she's the one to choose! read more

I am a huge fan of this salon and completely trust Aryn's hair acumen. I have thin hair and not alot of it, so I never expect my hair to look anything like my dream Pinterest pics. I appreciate that Aryn recognizes my hair texture and gives me a cut that truly works with what I have. Her coloring techniques are also spot on and she does an excellent job covering up my grays and giving me a more vibrant brown color. Its tough to find a stylist with the hair knowledge and practicality that Aryn has. I love that I can trust her to give me a great cut and color and highly recommend this salon. read more

I really am not one to leave poor reviews. Buti feel this needs to be said. What I really wish hairdressers would be honest if they don't know how to cut short hair. When you scroll through the numerous salons the majority of all pics is a long layered cut. I emailed this salon hoping I could get someone to fix this $75 waste of money and have received zero response. Now, I'm spending another $75 and going out of state! The owner reached out and made good 100%. I originally have 1-2 starts and have updated. I will be going back and trying a new stylist. This is FANTASTIC customer service! Thank you!!! read more

Grace is awesome and she slayed me hair. I think I want to be besties. My hair is gorgeous and my highlights are so natural. 10/10 no damage to my hair and my haircut is flyyyyy! Thank you !!! read more

Megan took my long shapeless pin straight hair and gave me layers, volume, and texture!!! Even helped me learn how to style my new haircut!! She listened to every thing I wanted and everything I did not want. 10/10 would recommend her, I actually sent my little sister to her. read more

Completely destroyed my virgin hair and fried it to the point where- as time went on I have lost half the length of my hair (about 8 inches or more) just from the bleach being left on to long and my ends falling off. It was not properly handled. Its been six months since I've been back there but Ive tried to make multiple appointments to get it redone and fixed and at the last minute/day of appointment I get canceled on. I have now gone and chosen a new Salon but unfortunately from the dye job that was done to my hair; It still bleeds from the color they put in; even after trying to get it all out with special products and then going all black. I now get extensions put in at my new salon just to have my length back. But I will never able to wash my hair normal again. read more

I am a huge fan of Aryn and her haircuts. I discovered her a few years ago, and will go to nobody else. Her cuts are very technical and always grow out superbly. I've got very thick hair with a lot of texture, and somehow she makes a short bob work on me. It's common that I get compliments on a regular basis on my haircut. Go to Aryn... She is amazing!! read more

Megan Solberg is an exceptional stylist. She is great with curly hair and does lovely color/balayage.

I saw Megan Solberg for the first time requesting a drastic hairstyle change. She made a very cautious person comfortable with her experience and ease. My hair looks great and I trust Megan's scissor skills so much that will be going back for color! I love my new long shag and can't wait to go get some balayage. Highly recommend. read more

Sheika is a hair magician! She is such an amazing asset to this salon. She specializes in vivids, shags/mullets, and corrective color. I have been going to her since 2016 and she is absolutely amazing. Not only can she work pure magic with your hair, she is also such a rad down-to-earth amazing human. If you are looking for a new hair artist look no more. You found her. Sheika listens to exactly what her clients want and executes it beautifully. If you want to also give her full artistic freedom you will not be disappointed. She is highly knowledgable and takes her time to make sure that everyone that leaves her chair is 1000% satisfied. I come from a family of stylists and won't go to anyone else besides Sheika. I can't say enough good things about her and her work. read more

I love love love this salon and their fantastic stylist Aryn. I first met Aryn while desperately searching for someone to fix a botched short, curly haircut. There are very few salons out here that cut curly hair WELL & Aryn was able to fix the cut and knew exactly how to work with my 3B hair. To this day she is the only stylist who I will go to touch my hair. She always gets me when i ask for a specific cut or style & i have always left 100% satisfied! Fellow curly hair gals know when you find the right person you stick to them!! Thank you for the amazing service here :) read more

I used to go to Aryn when she worked in Southern California, she is incredibly talented. She gives great haircuts that last and grows out beautiful I absolutely love every haircut that I have had from her.She has been in Portland for many years and I still try to fly up to see her for haircuts that's how good she is. I have curly / wavy hair and it's really hard to find hairstylist that know how to work with this type of hair.I fully trust her work read more

Cassandra rocks! I've been very happy with my hair the three times I've seen her. She takes the time necessary to make sure I'm happy and comfortable and she genuinely cares. I do literally nothing to my hair most days and she always cuts it so that it will look good without styling. I just got my hair highlighted for the first time in years and was very nervous, but she totally nailed it -- it's natural, sunkissed and not brassy at all. Exactly what I asked for. read more

Had my hair cut by Cassandra today, and she was superb! She did some research on the vision I had for my hair before our appointment, confirmed her understanding of the look I wanted at the appointment, and she gave me a wonderful cut. Would highly recommend and will definitely be going back. read more

I've been going to Aryn for haircuts for years now. She always gives me a great style that matches my curly hair (knowing I like to wear it straight as well) and my personality/style preferences. I've also been getting balayage from Cassandra for a few years. They are a color master!! I always feel like a million bucks when I leave the salon. read more

My stylist, Aryn, was very professional and took the time to listen to me completely. She then went to work and I ended up looking and feeling like a million dollars! The salon is very welcoming; I was impressed from the moment I walked in. Although the salon was busy everyone was very friendly and helpful. read more

Please save yourself and do not go here. I had a great first experience, however the second experience has ruined my hair. I have spent years growing out my hair, and finally wanted to add some style to it. I wanted long bangs and came out with an uneven choppy mullet. Not even close to the picture I had brought in. I told the stylist I was really hesitant and did not want to come out with curtain bangs or looking like Farrah Fawcett. It's un-stylable. My years of growth progress are completely gone. The worst part was paying $90 to go sit in my car and cry. That how bad my new hair made me feel. Welp, updos for the next year, I guess. read more

Kasey is a hair whisperer!!! Always does an amazing job, I honestly just give her full reign and am never disappointed. She's also just plain lovely to work with!! Hands down the best stylist ever!! read more

I've been seeing Kasey for about 4 years now. She helped me go from years of black cherry permanent box color to looking naturally blonde again! She is an amazing stylist and I appreciate that she's attentive to the health of my hair. If you're looking for a new salon, NIEUW is your place!! Highly recommend!! read more

If I could gift every woman in the Portland area one thing, it would be a cut & color with Aryn. She is flat-out incredible; talk about someone who has perfected their craft! I walk a little taller every time I leave the salon & constantly get compliments on my hair. I've been going to Aryn for awhile & my hair has never been healthier. She's so good I don't actually have to go that often because both her cuts & color grow out so subtly. I've also seen Kasey for color & she is also amazing. The salon is so clean & chic & everyone is exceedingly professional. It can be hard to get an appointment because they're popular, but I promise it's worth the wait! read more

I come all the way from St. Louis to have Aryn cut my hair. I trust Aryn completely. She really helps shape my curls into the best styles, both short and long. read more

I had a really good experience with Kasey. She delivered and understood the assignment 100%. She took the time to ask exactly what I wanted and did a really good job. Highly recommend read more

I never thought I could walk away from a hair appointment being that person that was like "omg I feel so much more like me" but AJ really did that. I'm out here emotional because I feel like they captured my soul and put it in a haircut!! AJ knew exactly how to work with my hair and was able to take what I wanted (bangs) and do it in a way that would work for my hair type. They were also so helpful in helping me understand how to better care for my hair on my own and gave all kinds of tips for how to get it to look the way I want it to! Truly best hair experience ever!! Plus, AJ is just an all around amazing human and I felt so immediately comfortable with them! You can't go wrong with this place! read more

I cannot say enough good things about the salon, and in particular owner/stylist Aryn. The environment is so cool and chic, the level of care and concern for a top tier experience is always evident, and Aryn's quest for client comfort and hair perfection is bar none. read more

This salon was a little on the high end price wise but I got a fantastic stylist who really had some great ideas on how to change up my look. It was long overdue emerging from a year long quarantine. I forgot I had a neck!! They took great care of me and the next time I want to feel like a million bucks I'm coming back! read more
