Kate is the BEST! I love my time with her and she keeps my face looking fabulous. It's a wonderful shop and my kinder to my skin than traditional waxing. read more

My service with Alison was incredible. I felt safe and at home for such a vulnerable thing. I will only go back to her.

I came in for a last lift and tint with Alison, and she was wonderful! I had no idea what I was doing, and she was willing to talk me through things. They're the inky black I asked for, went from straight at the corners to looking "just curled," and I'm absolutely hooked on the treatment. Thank you, Alison! read more

I was recommended this place by my friend who grew up here. I wish I had listened to her sooner. I LOVE sugaring and I'm never going back to waxing. Sugar Me is amazing and I've loved every esthetician I've had this far. All the staff I've interacted with are super nice and friendly. I feel clean and safe in this studio. Can't wait for my next sugaring! read more

Highly recommend. Never have been disappointed, and I've been coming here regularly for years. Good range of products for sale in shop, too. read more

I made the switch to sugar (from wax) last year. I've seen several ladies at SM but I usually see Katie A. She is great! It have less ingrown hairs and it's definitely slower to grow back. Thank you!! read more

I've been going here for a few years now and I absolutely love the results, the sugaristas, and the whole vibe. Kate is an angel and it's always a pleasure to see her. My skin is smooth, no in grown hairs, and I feel sexy and smooth. Thank you, Sugar Me!! read more

In all fairness, I'd have to lower my previous score. Giving it three stars is generous considering how the whole situation ended. The last time I went here, the sugarista just ripped the pieces off of my bikini area and didn't flinch or say a word when I screamed in pain repeatedly. It had to be one of the most painful experiences of my life and I've sprained my ankle so I know what pain is. The worst thing of all was that I left a voicemail for the owner with my complaint and no one ever returned my call. I realize that customer service in Portland is across the board, hit or miss, but the owner is a grown woman - and should have called me back to simply say, 'I'm sorry.' As well, the sugarista should have taken responsibility and said, 'I'm sorry.' This is a sad reminder of a trend I have seen here in this city from various practitioners - they have a problem being held accountable and cleaning up their side of the street. They have a problem, in other words, behaving like grown up professionals. When you're dealing with human beings, it is not a game. Be kind, be delicate. And say you're sorry when you hurt someone, even if you didn't mean to. Go elsewhere - there are plenty of sugaring places here - one I now love is called Sugar Sugar. The sugarista I last saw was a magician. read more

Super comfortable and efficient service. Thanks Alison for the great conversation, taking the time to share education on hair growth, and a quality wax! read more

Alison is so wonderful! I have sensitive skin and have always been insecure about the coarseness of my hair. every time I see her she leave me feeling so confident and beautiful. I am beyond grateful for the time and care she takes in my appointments, as I know my hairs are not the easiest to deal with. Sugaring has changed my leg hair growth and has made it so much more manageable. She is quick, thorough, and has very professional and warm bedside etiquette. I have been seeing her for almost a year now and have wanted to leave a glowing review since the beginning but for some reason am only making it here now! if you're looking for a sugar waxer, go see Alison!!! read more

Alison is fantastic! Always happy with my experience at Sugar Me and I love the retail section!

All the folks working here are lovely people and do a fantastic job. I won't go anywhere else! Everything is clean and I feel safe every time. Thank you Sugar Me! read more

Allison is so fantastic! She makes the experience relaxed and brings a good energy to the service while making me feel at ease! Thank you!

Sugar Me is a place to go for hair removal. Sugaring hair removal, an ancient middle-eastern practice uses an all natural paste or gel made from food-derived ingredients like sugar, water, and lemon juice to remove the hair follicle from the root. The results can last up to six weeks. Sugar Me recently opened its new Division Street venue within a block of where I live. I found myself walking by there frequently, so finally stopped in to check it out. I was immediately taken by the pristine, beautifully-decorated, welcoming interior. Products were neatly and tastefully displayed in and around antique furniture against a modern backdrop of bold colors and good lighting. The whole vibe was sort of industrial chic-meets-great grandma-cozy. Products were of highest quality and priced reasonably. There was a beautiful decanter for water and clean glasses there so customers could help themselves, and all of the services offered and pricing written out clearly on a chalkboard. Fresh flowers added a nice touch as well. One is supposed to make an appointment for services there. I did not have an appointment the day I dropped in, but the person in charge was friendly and happy to accommodate me. I wish I could remember her name...I want to say "Celeste"...but I might be wrong, so I won't. I ordered a brow design and was quite pleased with the results. Her services were fast, professional, painless and executed with expertise. She suggested a product for me to help maintain the look, and I purchased it and have been very pleased with the results. I recommend Sugar Me highly. I enjoyed my experience there tremendously, and will most certainly return. It's great to have this business in the hood! read more

See all

I've been going to Sugar Me for almost four years now and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon. Kate is a darling and, while I haven't had any other of her staff, they all seem just as lovely! As for the waxes, once you sugar wax, you'll never go back to your razor. Ever. I've even started having Kate do my brows so I guess I don't need that tweezer anymore either. Waxes are long-lasting too. Your average shave lasts, oh, 2 hours (I jest but seriously!). Waxes from Sugar Me last 4 solid weeks and I stretch it to 6 because the hair really does grow back in lighter and thinner. ALSO: if you use the Supportland app, Sugar Me has "buy five, get one free" virtual punch cards! This review should basically have convinced you so just scroll up, tap that "call" button and make your appointment now! Bonus: reward yourself after every wax w/ treats from Salt&Straw or St. Honore Boulangerie just up the street or lunch at Pok Pok right across the street! I always used to go to Fremont but you can't beat the new Division location! read more

Sorry folks, guess I'm just wimpy because although the lady who gave me a bikini & brow wax was extremely sweet, understanding and professional, it felt like torture. I went in 5 days ago, the area where she bikini waxed was sore for 3 days and my brows still have major bumps from where the hair was ripped out. Again, great people and I'm sure it's a wonderful place, just not for me. read more

I've been going to Sugar Me for close to 2 years. As a plus size woman, I've always felt very welcomed and have gotten great service. I predominantly have gotten Brazilians and facial waxing, both have been great every time. I've had many different sugaristas, all of whom have been wonderful, lovely women that have always made me feel cared for. Recently I was helped by Talya, she was extra amazing- I could tell she was hard-working and sweet, she did a great job. I recommend both locations to anybody I know!!! read more

Not too pleased with my experience. My friend and I had our eyebrows waxed, she asked for a touch up and there were many stray hairs left and her eyebrows looked exactly the same. I asked for some shape to mine after I had been growing them out and I left with them hardly shaped at all looking worse than when I came in, I'll have to grow them out again. I had never been here and when she was using the wax I said it looked like it would be hard to get precision with it and her response was "no". I do not recommend this place if you're looking to get your eyebrows shaped. The wax was fine, a little less painful than regular wax, but not worth the wasted money on badly shaped eyebrows that looked as if they needed waxed right after I had gotten them waxed. read more

Sugar Me - My eyebrow after I got them waxed here, choppy and worse than before. - Sugaring Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I went in a week ago and saw Amber. She was amazing! Very polite and professional and did a great job. She made the experience almost painless and was kind and let me know we could take breaks if needed. All the staff I came in contact with when signing in were friendly too. My mom also ended up getting an appointment and loved her experience with the gal who did hers. I highly recommend them!! read more

I have gone to this salon twice now and seen Kate both times for brazilians. I can't say enough good things about her! She is extremely knowledgeable, gentle, and personable. She gives great recommendations for between sugaring care and has absolutely changed my skin for the better! I am so glad I have found a place I can continue to go to. read more

I'll never wax again! Sugar me has changed my entire perspective on the monthly "clean up" in the down south area. I use to dread my wax appointments and literally have sweaty palms waiting for them to call my name into the back room. After moving across the country from Miami, I was lost on where to go for hair removal services. I got on Yelp and was Immediately interested when I read a review from a client saying how she suffered with serious ingrown hairs and that sugaring instead of waxing was more gentle on her skin. I immediately got online and booked an appointment for the following week. (I knew once I saw there was a wait, that the reviews had to be true) After meeting Tayla yesterday I feel like I've been torturing myself by waxing all these passed years. There was so much less pain and oh my god how I loved walking to my car without my pants sticking to the remaining wax left over in-between my butt lol! Not only was Tayla so swift and proper with her hair removal but she explained everything in detail and made me feel so comfortable in the new setting. I appreciate her customer service and people skills so much and recommend anyone trying this out to see Tayla! Thank you for offering such an amazing service and for hiring such amazing people to execute them! I will definitely be returning! read more

I was able to book online for same-day appointment. My appointment was with Greer. She friendly and fast and most important of all I felt very little pain. Will definitely be back for more sugaring. read more

Got a Brazilian sugaring from Katie and it was AMAZING! She's super gentle, pays super close attention to detail, and is a great person to chat with. We were laughing and talking while she sugared me, and she made me feel really comfortable. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be back when I'm in Portland - legit best sugaring I've had! read more

Chelsea B is my lady!!! She is QUICK and awesome!! I come here regularly for my hair removal services and I have never had a bad experience! The salon is clean, the bathroom is really well stocked with stuff you may need and the ladies who work there are great! Personally, I think that sugaring is less painful than waxing and I highly recommend going to this place at least once! I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

First time sugaring and it was an overall good experience. I can't say that it's not painful, cause it still hurts, but it was not near as bad as waxing. The staff is very friendly and nice. Would recommend! read more

This was my first experience with sugaring, but I have been getting waxed for probably 4 years. The process seemed, to me, less painful than waxing, even with the amount of growth I had. I was very impressed with everything about my visit, from the location to the ambiance to the process and my interactions with the staff. Chelsea was wonderful, we had great conversation and she is thorough and great at her job. She answered all my questions, was able to address my concerns and I look forward to seeing her again at my next appointment. Thanks Sugar Me! You have definitely earned a faithful customer! read more

First time sugaring and I like it! Chelsea did a bikini and was great and walked me through it, I have only waxed before. My next appt was with Katie, I asked her to change the shape of my eyebrows and she delivered big time! I have flat/straight brows and she gave my rounded/curved brows - I had no idea it was possible and I am so excited! Thank you! read more

I was very surprised for a studio that specializes in sugaring how many areas were missed with my Brazilian service. The appointment felt rushed and I was not impressed with the result, felt like an incomplete service. read more

I was a Freemont fan, I am a D-street fan! By far sugaring is the best technique for hair removal. Here are the reasons why; 1. It removes the hair in the direction of the follicle growth, unlike waxing which hurts more like hell 2. Its all natural sugar based and luke warm, not hot 3. No wax strips are needed 4. Your skin just gets softer over time, believe me I am 45 5. the hair growth is slower and a lot less 6. There is no skin irritation or redness They have specials like a Supportland buy 6, get one free. They have free underwear month, and various other discounts during the year. They also have cute jewelry and stuff to buy. read more

Holy cow! Was sugared from the rooter to the tooter last week with Kate at the Division location. What a place. What service. What a gal! Loved the whole experience. Kate is one of my most favorite people. And she is even more so now because she successfully gave me a Brazilian without me leaving the joint feeling like someone had scalded me like a cat, or so beat up & sore that I was in pain 4 days later (that actually happened to me at another popular hair removal biz). I met Kate when she was my instructor at the Euro Institute of Skincare, and was there the day she discovered sugaring as a more natural option to waxing. I never had an opportunity to try it until now. And I am in love, love, love! It makes dry skin incredibly smooth & soft. A week later I am still surprised how great my skin feels & looks. It glows! And it absolutely helped with my airbrush tan's application & longevity that I had done the next day. Still looks incredible & I know it was the sugaring that has accomplished that. I can't speak highly enough of Kate's ninja like sugaring & soothing skills. When she has to get after some tender spots she has superhero-like comforting skills. Petting your arm, pausing and taking a deep breath to clue you in to do the same. She is fast, calm, and very precise. If you haven't tried sugaring yet you really should. It really does leave your skin improved, as well as your sense of self. You just feel like a hot sugared mama ;) read more

The quality of services here vary depending on the "sugarista". What's really annoying is that I booked with a sugarista recommended to me by a friend, but they switched me to a provider I really did not want to see again when I showed up to my appointment. Very awkward situation and fairly unprofessional to switch providers last minute. Obviously, it's uncomfortable to say, "Hi, I purposefully did not book with you" and no, I can't come back at another time because I already scheduled this time into my calendar. read more

Friday will be my 3rd trip into Sugar Me. The place is adorable, affordable, conveniently located, and and they are very friendly, all pros so far. The con is that in my first two trips I don't feel like it's actually been as thorough as waxing was for me. I have a hormonal condition that causes me to grow hair in places (as a woman) I'd prefer not to have it. I switched to sugaring because it is touted as being able to get rid of shorter hairs, and since they are on my face and not somewhere that can be hidden, catching them when they are shorter is preferable. I feel like maybe my last esthetician when I was waxing was more diligent in tweezing to get the hairs that were missed? I am using a different Sugarer? Sugarist? Sugarista? each trip hoping that maybe that makes a difference. The reviews for both locations seem to say Kate and or Tray are the best of the best? Friday's appointment is with Tray, fingers crossed. read more

Ladies, this place is the bomb. I don't eve know where to start. When you walk in it's very warm and inviting and decorated perfectly. It makes you feel happy just by walking in the door. Their prices are fair and I have to say it's a lot better than waxing. I've been waxing for about 10 years now and sugaring is a lot less painful and takes less time. The sugarists are really nice and accommodating. They even have a punch card where you buy 5 and get one session free. That's actually attainable! They have great coconut oils and scrubs that they use and are available for purchase, too. I'll definitely be going back! read more

Super easy to make an appointment online. Service was great and I'm really happy with the result.

I love booking with Heather!!! I've always waxed everything, so this 'sugaring' thing seemed very appealing to me since I have very sensitive skin, let me tell you...its the BEST! It didn't hurt one bit (Im a tough girl but still, wax hurts more imo). I had never done a brazilian (being honest) but had always wanted, but since it's super intimate I was like eh- I'll just test it out and if I feel comfortable then we can see. Dude!! These people are awesome!!! I first had my under arms and after that I was hooked. Heather is SO nice! I just moved to PDX and I felt like I could talk to her about anything (even my crappy landlord). Felt zero awkwardness or disturbance. I took a little break in my country and haven't felt as comfy doing everything in other place. Will totally go back when I get back! PLUS- its super cute!! read more

I had a waxing appointment with legend and she was the sweetest most gentle person. I will always come back I had a great experience

First time sugaring. I've waxed before but decided to try sugaring because I heard it was less abrasive to your skin and all natural. My skin is very sensitive, every time I've waxed I get super red and am a little sore afterwards. I was pleasantly surprised after my first sugaring appt. I wasn't red at all, my skin was smooth and no soreness. I was so happy. I will definitely return. read more

I debated sharing my opinion for a couple of weeks. This was my first experience sugaring and I've never waxed in the past. Just super tired of shaving and wanting to try out alternatives. I was booked with Lydia, though the esthetician I saw never introduced herself, so I can only assume it was Lydia. I had my legs and a Brazilian done. I hadn't shaved for 18 days (the website recommended at least 10 days) and she told me my leg hair was pretty short and likely couldn't get it all. My hair was all over the 1/4 inch recommended length, so I don't see how it was "too short." The room was cold, I was uncovered nearly the whole time, and there was very little instruction/warnings. Her application was also quite rough and pulled on my hair a lot. My appt was scheduled for 2 hours and I was done in 80 mins. I now feel this was due to the lack of thoroughness. I have patches of long hair in places that should have been removed. I could understand if a few spots or straggler hairs had been missed, but we're talking a lot more than that! I paid nearly $200 for this service and feel like I was cheated. However, I strongly feel my experience is related to the esthetician rather than the salon as a whole. The place was clean, other estheticians were friendly and kind, and the salon was very Covid safe. I do plan on sugaring again in the near future, and I may even return to sugar me, I will just see a different esthetician. read more

I absolutely LOVE Sugar Me! Zaria is amazing. She is professional, fun, and very great at her craft. The sugar wax they use is so gentle on my skin and I always leave very satisfied. I would highly recommend this place and Zaria to anyone who is looking for a great hair removal experience! read more

Been going here for a little over a year. Talya is my favorite! They are clean, consistent and super friendly. Sugaring has really changed a lot for me and I'm so glad I found such an amazing place. Talya is so thorough with her work and will seriously get every little hair. Love this place!!!!! read more
