Susan Randall gives the BEST pedicure!

by MattAndreasen

I have been going to Susan religiously for my pedicure every four weeks for the last year. The thing I love most about her pedicures is that it actually lasts the full four weeks where as most are trashed in two. My feet have never been so soft, un -callioused, and not only that she is actually helping my nails. I hope everyone gives her a try!

  • Pros: Accommidating, friendly, fun!
  • Cons: None

Fantastic service!

by Vikram

I've been visiting Hair Architects for 2 years now. My good friend, Joesph Pearce, cuts my hair and he is simply the best. I love the staff here at H.A and the owner is such a nice man. What's more? You enjoy a nice cup of tea or coffee while you wait. The place is clean, the service is fast and they even have a list of mani-pedi services to offer. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

  • Pros: Love my haircut every time
  • Cons: Wish they were open past 5pm

JAPANESE METHOD HAIR STRAIGHTENING

by KozicKitty

I've been a Yuko client for many years at a different NW Ptld salon and was so stressed when my long time stylist moved to the east coast leaving a stylist who, thought delightful, is newly oriented to the Japanese straightening process. And as I have no fondness for that salon in general .... my search for a new hair straightening master was on! Searched Japanese hair straightening on Citysearch and called all the salons listed on the west side... I was most impressed when I called Hair Architects.. Dante took all the time I needed to answer my questions and address my concern that the product that they used was not one that I had used in the past. I decided to take the plunge and scheduled with John Nickell. First... there's parking! The salon was light filled, I was greeted by pleasant people, Jon listened to my history and evaluated my hair. The product that they use is AWESOME. Though they use a different product (made by Matrix?), it is applied just as is Yuko. Comes is a variety of formulas for different hair types and doesn't stink like yuko!. He and Alex 'double teamed' to work both sides of my head at once, thus shortening the the long tedium of this service. Also, product is safe to use with a color enhancer after the neutralization stage. My silver hair has NEVER looked so good. Has so much more 'life' and shine then it ever did after a Yuko visit. And straight as a pin. Also, no 'hard sell' of products...really loved that... Jon, you da man!

  • Pros: Super Product, Service and Ambience
  • Cons: none

Dante did an excellent job

by Jrich9

I just moved to the Portland area, and was concerned about finding a new stylist. Dante was willing to work me in at the last minute, and I was so glad it was her. She has short hair, like I do and understood what I needed most in a haircut. When I got home my husband was impressed and loved the cut.

  • Pros: Great subtle color & adorable hair cut

Alex is relatively new but she is awesome!

by SYLEE

I'm so picky with my hair that I won't let my mom who's been a beautician 25 years in LA touch my hair. Because my hair is black, thick and semi-curly, it's difficult to work with. So most of the time, I cut, style, and color myself since I can scare stylists. BUT I decided to give someone else a try at my difficult hair. ALEX did my cut, highlights and toner for me, and she was AWESOME!! She took her time to listen to exactly how I wanted my hair to look like, what color, etc...then she continuously updated me on what was going to happen before she did anything. I know Joseph is good b/c of previous reviews, but I think y'all should give ALEX a try.

  • Pros: friendly environment, professional, great staff
  • Cons: none

Joseph Pearce is great!!

by SG8454

I bounced from stylist to stylist for quite some time and had difficulty finding someone who "understood" my hair. I was referred to Joseph Pearce by a friend and have been happy ever since. He is a talented stylist who can work with all types of hair and lengths. Thanks to his awesome cuts I finally have the easy to manage hair I've always wanted! He also does a beautiful job with color. I've referred friends and everyone I referred gives rave reviews as well. If you need a stylist, go to Joseph, he's the best!

  • Pros: Great Stylist, Friendly Salon, Clean
  • Cons: None!

Joseph - Seriously Best Stylist EVER!

by bproden84

I've been going to Joseph for over two years now and couldn't be happier! He has done a wonderful job each and everytime with my hair. You can tell this isn't a job for him, but he actually loves what he does. He takes his time and just doesn't rush through it like several stylists i've had in the past. Joseph also is extremely friendly and all around a great guy.... The place is very clean, and all the workers are friendly and classy. I recommend Joseph and Hair Architecs to anyone who is looking for a great hair cut! Promise you won't be dissapointed! Thanks again Joseph!

  • Pros: Great Sylist, Parking, Clean Atmosphere

Amazing Stylist & Color - Fawn is Fabulous

by boomer2663

Fawn rocks!!! I went to Fawn with long, dry, brittle,damaged hair, not to mention in need of a good color. I knew I wanted to go shorter, actually I wanted to give my hair to Locks of Love if possible. Fawn knew all the criteria to be able to donate. I was impressed! I had gone to stylist in the past that didn't have a clue. Anyway, she listened to everything I had to say about what type of cut I wanted. My hair turned out amazing and the color, oh the color is gorgeous!!!! I will never go to any one else again. Fawns professional and you can tell she loves what she does!!! I would recommend Fawn to any one!!!!!

  • Pros: Best cut and color I've had

Fabulous salon!

by Lynnbry

By far one of the best hair salons in the Portland area. Great atmosphere and stylists. Dante is fantastic! I found this salon through citysearch after I chose to let my old stylist go and was not disappointed. My first visit I was scheduled with Dante. Getting your hair cut by a new stylist is always a nail biter. It could be bad or good. Lucky for me it was beyond good. Dante was very friendly and fun to work with. I recently went back for a cut and color and this time I decided to go for a shorter style. Never having my hair cut above chin length I was a bit nervous, but Dante's attitude toward the change was very encouraging and I felt confident in getting another great cut and color. I've received numerous compliments from people at work and am sure to tell them where and who I go to. I highly suggest Hair Architects. Even though I am now a loyal Dante client, from observing other stylists at the salon I would feel just as comfortable in their chairs because I've seen what they can do & the response from their clients.

  • Pros: Shampoo bowls, atmosphere, service, hours
  • Cons: Limited parking in the salon parking lot
