I am so happy to have found Andrea at Primp salon. I moved away for a year and when I got back I realized I had to find someone new to do my hair. Andrea had done my hair for several years before I moved away and wasn't sure if she was even still in Oregon. I got in touch with an old friend who let me know where she was working now. I am THRILLED. Andrea has always done a great job, she listens and is always friendly. I am a satisfied customer. By the way, Love the new salon.

Pros: good location, small salon

Cons: none

I really wanted a new hairstyle and was anxious to get bangs. I had read alot about primp salon and all the people that work there. I have always been used to $15 hair cuts thought that was alot. I was very timid of going there and paying $50 for hair cut, but they had good reviews and went for it. I really wanted the new eyebrow bags that are so cute right now, but bangs for me was a really big jump and i was very nervous. So now i am in the hole $50 and a hair cut i absoultly hate. Andrea cut my hair and even though she was nice, my hair turned out horrible, now i have to find somehow to hide the hidous bangs till they grow out. I am so dissapointed. They raved i would walk out of there looking fab and now i just want to wear a hat 24/7. i hate my haircut and paying that much was not worth it, i had a better haircut from my $15 lady. Thanks alot primp and andrea

Pros: close to my house

Cons: small, too much $$$

I have lived in Portland, Oregon for 10 months and up until this point I never thought I would find a hair stylist who even compared with my wonderful gal in North Carolina. I have read reviews until I am blue in the face and unfortunately my initial choice resulted in a cut that I would regret for the next several weeks. But I didn't give up and in my research I learned about all the wonderful stylists at Primp Salon in downtown Portland. The salon itself is beautiful! My appointment was with Sabrina. She is awesome!!! I brought in pictures and with her magic fingers she created one of the best cuts I have ever had! She is truly amazing and very kind! I can't thank you enough, Sabrina!

I just recently went into Primp after hearing my close friend rave about it, and she has specifically told me to go to Andrea. I trusted her and asked for stylist Andrea for a cut and color, and I couldn't be more happy with the results! I went in expecting the results to be like every other salon I've been in. But Andrea had great ideas, she made suggestions for my hair that I would have never thought of, and it turned out looking amazing! I don't think I'll ever go to a different salon after having gone to Primp. I would recommend this salon to anyone. Andrea is the hair master!! Thank you!

Pros: great atmosphere, highly skilled stylists, great results, good conversation

I followed Rhonda from another salon because she is amazing! She is down to earth and easy to talk to while she works her magic. She is a whiz with color- I change up my color almost every time I see her, and the results are fantastic. Rhonda knows to give me a low maintenance style that looks great even as it grows out. She has even let me come back without charge if color washed out too quickly or a style needed tweaking. She did it all without making me feel like a chump. She is the best! She did my hair just yesterday and I feel like a million bucks!

Pros: The salon is a really nice space, Rhonda works there :)

Cons: none that I can think of....

I've been meaning to write a review, I got my hair done a few weeks ago by Lisa, and it's wonderful! I have very difficult hair and have had some awful hair cuts because of this, and she totally knew how to best deal with it all! The color was very rich and pretty and the cut was way too super cute! She seems to have a knack of looking at your face shape and matching you with a great cut, especially since I was a little vague on the style I wanted. The salon itself is very pretty, great open windows and the staff is super sweet. I WILL BE RETURNING!

Pros: great staff, great color products, parking available

If you don't mind your hair smelling burnt when you leave, dye left on the side of your face, and you understand the name of the salon means YOU will be the one to have to 'primp' your own hair for the next 2 months until the awkward choppy hair cut and fried dye job grows out, this place will be for you!!!

Pros: Friendly Down to Earth Staff

Cons: Burnt hair, dye on the face, long hair will be cut too short despite specific instructions
