DO yourself a favor

by E bomb at Citysearch

Nicole is the best! GO see her immediately! You will not be sorry. I have never had such an awesome hair cut and color. The receptionist (Ethan) was way cool too. I can't recommend Nicole enough. She spent some much time on me and was very detail oriented. The space was really well put together as well.

• Pros: Best haircut & Color ever!!!
• Cons: A little pricey...but worth it.

Professional and great salon with a big heart!

by Jordanna CCC at Citysearch

I work with a local non-profit and approached Bliss to help with our mission of re-integrating individuals with barriers to employment back into the workforce (primarily people struggling with homelessness, addiciton, and incarceration). Without a second thought all the staff were on board help out. They have provided excellent service boosting our clients confidence with a new look and giving them a second chance. I can't say enough about this salon and the staff. They go above and beyond!

• Pros: professional & caring staff,positive environment,great salon
• Cons: None

Spoiled and satisfied.

by ilurvpdx at Citysearch

I have been going to Bliss for quite awhile now and meaning to get on here and rave about it. I have nothing but excellent things to say. My stylist is Nicole and she is nothing short of an expert at what she does. I am constantly complimented on my cuts and color. If I tell her what I want, she does precisely what I ask. If I leave it up to her, she comes up with something awesome. She always goes out of her way to accommodate me and my schedule. I can tell that she loves what she does and she is definitely a perfectionist, as someone else in another review mentioned. Additionally, the salon is always clean and relaxing. Ethan at the front desk is always hilarious and friendly and the other stylists are fun to listen to and be around. Any time I call and leave a voice mail, someone calls me back well within the day and is ready to help me. Good stuff, Nicole, Ethan and Bliss! Keep it up!

• Pros: Friendly, accomodating, perfect service, good vibes
• Cons: None

The best esthetician in town!

by WendyJ at Citysearch

I've lived in several different cities and as all people, especially women know it is nerve racking to find a new salon. I first sought out Bliss Salon for there waxing services. I have been seeing Kristen at Bliss Salon for almost two years and she is remarkable! She has always been on time, is quick, and most importantly made me feel as though I was walking into her home every visit. I've also used several of their hairdressers and would strongly recommend Stephanie. She's always positive and really listens to what YOU want and not what she thinks you want. Ethan who manages the scheduling is also an absolute pleasure every time I come in. Overall, I've had great experiences at this salon and would recommend it to my closest friends and family!

• Pros: Best service

Love my new do, thanks Nicole

by NayNay at Citysearch

Today I got my hair done at Bliss by Nicole. I am always nervous when I get my hair done because I don't do it very often. But Nicole has never let me down. I told her what I wanted and she made it happen. I went to a social event after and EVERYONE complimented on it. I finally got home tonight and my fiancee couldn't believe how great it looked. Thanks Nic, you're awesome. I 'll be back.

• Pros: Experience, relaxed, clean, easy to make appointment
• Cons: Far from my house! But I drive there anyway!

Awesome Salon

by MonkeyBoy at Citysearch

I've been going to Bliss Salon & Day Spa for almost 2yrs now. There's several reasons I keep coming back, but the most important is that my stylist Nicole is a very talented perfectionist and she gives me a fantastic haircut each and every time. It doesn't matter whether I want a conservative business look for work or a more wild faux-hawk for going out... she does them all with ease, charm and wit. It also doesn't hurt that she's one of the prettiest stylists I've ever met! :) The staff is always courteous, professional, accommodating, and happy, and it's obvious that they enjoy what they do. They always provide appointment reminders, offer water or tea for the wait, and just plain old good conversation. I love this place and recommend it to anyone looking for a great haircut or some special well-deserved pampering. -Greg

Great place to go IF you are asking to be bald!!!

by ceo4life at Citysearch

Well, after talking with a SNOTTY receptionist, my nightmare REALLY began wth the stylist, Nicole or "Nikki". She is a beast! Rude, talks bad about all her"friends"(I could over hear her on her phone, and to other employees. She would talk about one of the employees, the minute they would walk away, then talk about the next!! EVEN the owner(if her name is Laura!!), AND I could hear it ALL!! I was shocked at her total lack of professionalism!! NOW, my hair...HORRIBLE!! She did want SHE wanted to do! And it left me with hair that is all falling out!! I cried for weeks!! I have balding spots because of her. I had tried to talk to the manager(the one Nicole doesnt like because she is "constantly ruining her schedule") ) and NEVER got a return call!! I have had to buy a wig for work, I am a model!! I begged that she NOT do her idea, that my hair couldnt handle the stress, its almost like she did it on purpose!! I dont know!!! I am SO traumatized, if you love/like your hair like I do/did, STAY AWAY FROM THIS SALON, AND MORE SPECIFICALLY, THAT STYLIST! I just cant believe what she did to me! She styled my singed and fried hair when she was done, as if that what I asked for!! I just could NOT believe what i was looking at! I have sores on my scalp, from the poducts burning me so bad!!! I am looking into legal rcourse, and contacted the state board of cosmetology!! NEVER have I had to endure such a nightmare! I now can only pray my hair will grow back through the scarring from the chemical burns! I am ruined!!!! I just wish I could have been warned!!! :(

• Pros: NONE!!
• Cons: ALL stylist: fat and rude, NO talent!

Dear friend,

If you have something against Nicole, fine, but please find a more mature way of resolving your issues. You are not actually a bliss client and I do not appreciate you slandering my business or my stylist. We have red flagged this silly review and it should be removed soon. May you find more constructive things to do with your time girl...good luck.

-Laura, Bliss Owner

fantastic pedicure

by emagnolias at Citysearch

I have to say that I rarely find the need to post a review on citysearch... so the fact that I am taking the time to do so already speaks volumes.

Initially I was put off by the decor, which seemed a bit outdated, or at least not my style. However, my $55 pedicure was way better than any pedicure I'd ever received, counting spas in NYC that cost over $120 for one hour.

The pedicure seemed to last forever, and my awesome nail specialist, Anna, got every last bit of my horrible callouses off my feet!

If you want to feel extremely pampered, and not risk fungal infections from those cheap-o nail salons, go to Bliss and ask for Anna!

• Pros: talent
• Cons: decor
