I highly recommend Sarah Turowski if you're looking for a men's haircut. A little background: I'm a broadcast meteorologist that works in front of a camera 5 days / week. It's important for me to keep my hair in top shape. Sarah has kept me camera-ready since I moved to Portland in 2019, and is THE BEST hair stylist I've ever worked with. She's creative if you're looking to switch things up, but also consistent if you're trying to keep the same look. I don't even have to tell her what I want anymore. I just walk in, start chatting, and she knows exactly what to do. If you care about your hair, look no further. Sarah is the person you want cutting it! read more

I would say four years is about time for an update! Entrust has just gotten better and better, which is hard to believe because it has always been fantastic. Lauren and Sean are great and still at the salon. Since my last review, they've welcomed some incredible new talent. So much so, that I actually trusted one of the "newbies" Samantha with my locks. Samantha was up for the challenge of putting up with me, and did just an absolutely stunning job on my color. Sean is still my number one for cuts, and always will be, so he takes care of the styling side of my hair. Love these guys, and love their salon. read more

I can't believe they only have 4 reviews. The location is super convenient for me. I can get off work at 5 and be there for a 5:00 appointment. Lucky me. I saw Sean last year for a free consultation (was considering chemical straightening). I've seen Sam twice since. She's absolutely amazing! I'm jealous of her hair. The best part is the scalp massage during the wash. Sam gives the absolute best massage ever. That, coupled with the tea tree conditioner, leave my head tingling well after my blow out. She's meticulous in her refining, and she takes her time to get everything right. read more

I reccomend going to see Sarah T. She is so immensely talented. She's cut my hair for years and has always cut it better than anyone else. She is a true artist! She is also an amazing person. Really nice, super relaxed n chill. I almost fall asleep every time I sit in her chair. If I could give her more stars I would. read more

Sarah Turowski is a crafty artisan un compared. Thank you for the best cut I've been given in 10 years.

Katie is the woman you want to do your platinum hair! I have very dark brown hair naturally, and since I met Katie my hair has been a Platinum 10+ level. If you are serious about having super blonde white hair, you MUST at least consult Katie. She is worth your time! I followed Katie here from Gold + Arrow. Her Quality is amazing. She's got a great energetic personality and just plain fun to be around! You'll not only find the best colorist, you'll make a new friend. See my photos and decide for yourself if you want to finally have the Platinum hair you always wanted. Thank you! Michelle read more

This place has classic elegance, a professional know-how environment and extrudes quality and customer delight. I was tended by professional stylist 5 Star Central American hair architect Ms Luisa. Definitely gifted with a DaVinci hand with scissors that wastes no time in understanding not only what style I wanted but which would favor my appearance. Thanks to my co-worker Ricky C., now I have one less worry as I move into Portland. If looking for the best "You", then Entrust Hair is your last stop. read more

Wonderful husband and wife team, for cuts and colors. I have been to Lauren a few times and then Sean. Both are excellent. They listen, are very skilled and you leave with what you were asking for or better. Excellent and well trained. There are even good at fixing other past style mistakes. Easy to talk to, too. Others work there, but I have not tried them, they seem good from watching them. I am from the east coast, and really looking for a certain level of training. Grateful to have found this place. Hidden gem. read more

Lauren gave me a great cut! Layered my curly hair well! After I got home I decided I wanted more of an edgy look. I left a message and Sean got right back to me. Entrust wanted to make sure I was satisfied. I went back in and got the edgier look I wanted. My husband and I agree this new hair cut is easily the best I have had. Thanks for working with me!! I'll be back :) read more

When I first moved to Portland from LA I went as long as I could with out getting a hair cut and color. I had a trusty stylist in LA who never let me down and I was beyond terrified to have a stylist in a smaller city ruin my locks. I had a friend who suggested I try Entrust to get my hair cut and colored. They also had a rad deal going at the time that included a special offer on highlites. Lauren has been my stylist for almost two years now. I have never had a bad color or cut here. They listen to what you want and also cut to your hair texture and face shape. They understand my goal for long, Victoria's Secret model esq hair I want and don't push any over edgy cuts or colors on me. I'm back in LA and now I won't let an LA stylist touch my hair! I always wait to get my hair done when I visit Portland or when ever Sean and Lauren make a trip down to LA. I also love how laid back they are in the salon. They are friendly but not over chatty. Good selection of magazines, good music, offer a delicious beverage and do not act stuck up like many of the salons in NW and Pearl District. read more

Sean got back to me right away when I sent a message mentioning that I was looking for a new place to get my hair cut. After asking me about my hair and style, he recommended that I work with Luisa who I ended up booking an appointment with. She was fantastic. Super sweet, super professional, and gave me a great cut. Thanks, Entrust! And thank you Luisa! read more

I was referred to Dene at Entrust by a friend, and I adore her. She listened to what I wanted and executed exactly the haircut I was looking for. She was also super-friendly and easy to talk to. Also, although I don't color my hair, her work looks great on my friend. I highly recommend Entrust and Dene! read more

Lauren has been my stylist for nearly two years and I have never had a bad experience. She blows me away every time with her amazing work and I always leave loving the new style even more than the one before. I am one of those clients who never has any idea what she wants and always relies on Lauren and Sean to pick out something that will look good on me. They are always on point and I never have any doubt in letting them just do their thing. They know that I like to keep my hair pretty natural and simple looking and they always come up with the prettiest color combinations to execute that. I seriously love Lauren and Sean and refuse to go anywhere else. I have been living in Northern California for the past six months and cannot wait to get back up there to see them!! read more

I had a great experience at Entrust! Planned a last minute wedding and couldn't get in with my usual stylist. Googled and Googled and Googled some more and came across Katie. Lucky me!! Don't let her Instagram fool you--She's excellent with brunette coloring too! Love what she did with my hair and how she styled it. Very trustworthy. If she doesn't feel 100% confident with what you're seeking- she will tell you. That is so valuable. Much prefer that to someone who will go for it without an honest discussion. The entire crew was friendly, non-pushy, laid back and prices were totally reasonable. Will definitely be back. read more

Kate Eddin was a no show. I would not recommend going here if you are in any kind of time constraint. After I left 2 messages, there was zero follow up and no apologies. Privavjt the wurst experience I've ever had at a hair salon. read more

Several years ago I used to go to an old-time barber, but then he retired. I then bounced around from various mega quick-cut places that give you a "Seven Dollar Haircut" for a few years. My hair showed the lack of care and consistency that an impersonal environment and low-cost, high-volume gets you. So, I went looking for something better. And better is what I found at Entrust Hair. There are a ton of salons in town, but it's kind of a crap shoot finding someone you can trust. As a guy, salons can have the feel of walking into the ladies room; a lot feel like they're only for women. That is NOT the case at Entrust. Sean, the owner, is a man's man through and through with an affinity for tattoos and metal music from the 80s, and the salon feels gender neutral. I liked that. Lauren actually does my hair, and has been for what seems like forever now. It's great having someone you can talk to, trust and does a great scalp massage! I get consistency with my hair cuts and a lot more personal service that I ever got at the "Seven Dollar Haircut" places. The location of the salon is convenient for me too, and appointment times are flexible, but I'd suggest you rebook after each appointment to make sure you can get in when you want. I've recommended Entrust to several of my friends, and a half dozen or so now are loyal clients. If you are unhappy with who's hacking at your hair currently, give Entrust a try! You won't be disappointed. And tell'em Matt sent you! read more

I've been coming to entrust for a longtime. I've had bleached hair with extensions to currently a mom bob. Sean is amazing and very talented hairdresser. I highly recommend Sean. read more

I have been a loyal client of Entrust for over two years. I love Sean and whole heartedly trust him with my hair. I am very impressed by the talent in hair design (color, cut, and style) at Entrust Studios. Sean is incredibly talented in the latest hair layering and coloring techniques. I am never fearful to try new innovative styles with him. My hair has always looked edgy and beautiful. I receive many compliments on my hair. They use high quality products. I only use Paul Mitchell, so it's a plus that Entrust Studios uses it too. The experience is fun and exciting, especially if you are open minded and try something new! The quality in cut, color, and style are high end without breaking the bank. Their hair studio is new, clean, and stylish without the pushy snobby atmosphere. LOVE IT! read more

Highly recommend Entrust salon! Awesome environment and friendly staff! Lauren cut and colored my hair beautifully! She listened to what I wanted, offered her professional advice and made me feel confident that my hair was in good hands. Not every stylist understands the fun damage that comes along with natural curls and blonde hair... so I was very impressed by not only how effective the treatment she chose was but how she explained each product and its purpose when I inquired. I left with some radiant hair, a smile and an upcoming appointment:) read more

Brittany B is the best! I'll never go anywhere else. I asked for a trim and gloss and my hair looks and feels AMAZING. She's so great at what she does and efficient. I highly recommend her especially if you want to look your best! read more

Love, love LOVE Leslie at Entrust. I have naturally curly hair and it's hard finding someone who does curly hair well. I've seen her for over a year now and have always left loving my hair. Leslie has a gorgeous head of long curly hair herself so she GETS it. Not only does she always give me an awesome cut but she's a wealth of information as far as helping you achieve the style you're after outside of the salon. She's also taken me from super-dark brown to blonde and I get nothing but compliments on my color. Entrust has a great atmosphere and all of the stylists are friendly and personable. I've found my place and my gal and I highly recommend it! read more

I absolutely love Lauren at Entrust. I'm PRETTY sure she gives the best scalp massages in Portland. Also, I'm a big fan of the Paul Mitchell products she's recommended for my blonde hair. read more

I had a hair emergency!! My hair was past my butt, very thick and wavy. I had a huge knot in the back causing headaches and could not get it out. For four days i had tried with no success I called random places, in tears looking for someone to cut my hair off. Ben took me in that evening and cut it off. Ben said he could work the knot out but I was in so much pain. I now have very short hair, its a cute little style but I it. Ben was very understanding and helpful in a time of need. The store is clean, friendly service and caring people. I could not of asked for anything more of this stylist. Thank you Ben!!! read more

"You deserve more than just a hair cut. You deserve an experience!" Say's Artistic Director and Owner, Sean Paisant. And that's exactly what you'll get. Not only will you leave with a fabulous new hair cut or color, you'll also leave with more knowledge, whether it's your first time in, or your 100th. That's the goal of the team of highly qualified stylists at Entrust, a Paul Mitchell focused salon, located conveniently off NE Glisan Street. The staff at Entrust commit to ongoing continuing education to ensure you're always getting the highest quality experience. They want you to know what products they're using and why. They also have an open color bar, where you can watch your stylist mix your color giving you a one of a kind experience. Then slip back and relax while you're getting your hair rinsed and shampooed with Paul Mitchell's latest top of the line product, Awapuhi Wild Ginger with a special keratin infused product that repairs your hair from the inside out, leaving your hair fabulously soft and manageable. "I'm an artist first and hairdresser second," says Sean and this is apparent not only while watching him work a pair of scissors and a comb, but also in the salon itself, which Sean personally designed from the ground up with crisp white walls and shelves, tall mirrors angled against the wall in front of each station and modern and comfortable black chairs to sit in. Before you leave be sure to check out the Take Home area where you can try out professional styling tools by Paul Mitchell or check out the range of unique T-shirts, skirts & dresses by such designer as Kill City and Sean's own clothing brand Entrust. read more

Super happy with my cut and color and the price was completely reasonable! I had both Sean and Alina working on my hair and both were phenomenal. I took my son there as well and his cut turned out super cute! It's totally my new spot. read more

This place is awesome! I walked in looking like a bum and left looking like Bowie. High end salon results without having to take a loan out. Definitely worth a visit! read more

When you first walk in, it's a breath of fresh air. Modern clothing, nice looking staff and a clean salon. Sean has been cutting my hair, and each and every time he does something a little different (because I trust him) and it turns out AMAZING. He can shampoo like no one else, and the time he takes to style your hair is nothing. He's always telling me about the greatest products to use without making me feel like I HAVE to buy them. Just watch him do a cut or color, and he will blow your mind. I know the other stylists, but not that well, but they are always sweet and easy to talk to. Oh! And don't forget you can play Xbox 360 in the lobby. Just sayin... read more

You can stop searching for a new hair salon...Make an appointment with Katie right now. After months of avoiding looking for a new local, stylist, I came to Entrust (after hours spent reading reviews on Yelp) with hair that had not been tended to in NINE months and needed something entirely new. I LOVE the results - Katie is a color MAGICIAN and Anthony is a cut master. Together, they created a modern look for me which blew me away. And beyond just achieving great results, I really appreciated that (1) Katie listened to what I wanted (I came with photos of styles and colors I liked from Katie's Instagram plus photos of me with my favorite haircut ever; (2) they took the time to talk with me beforehand about possible solutions, taking into account that, realistically, I will not spend a lot of time on my hair every day, I needed a cut and color to be versatile enough that it will look great when styled up or down, and the look also needed to be current to fit in with my design industry job; (3) Katie was courageous enough to slightly change course in the middle of the appointment when she was inspired by a better idea than the color process we decided on at the beginning of the appointment; and (4) Katie was honest about her skills and strengths and put my needs above all else (she said she could give me the layered look that I wanted, but felt that Anthony would actually be better-suited to give me the crazy layers that I really longed for because of his layering skills). And, all of that would be enough to consider this appointment a win, but they were both also super-fun to hang out with over the course of the several hours it took for the color and cut. I left the salon not only feeling confident in that I looked great, but I was also energized, too, from the interactions with two amazing human beings who are both very interesting and a pleasure to get to know...I feel like I've found my spirit animals of hair!! read more

Leslie is amazing. She listens to my ideas and has suggestions when I want or need them. She's hardworking, caring, gives a great scalp massage, and makes my hair look awesome! Everyone at Entrust is kind and helpful. Great place! read more

Leslie is your answer for a haircut. I am so glad I found her! I was really struggling with some waves I had put in and now my hair looks great with no effort :D Best you could as for! THANK YOU! read more

Sean was great. My hair needed color help, and it got it! Plus this new do he gave me I've been getting tons of compliments on... definitely going back for more! read more

Was recently in for cut and color and very pleased! Sean looked at my previous cut which wasn't bad and he reassured me that he wasn't going to do anything drastic but modernize it a bit. Cut and color complimented my face and style giving me a slightly hipper look without looking silly for my age. Comments have all been favorable and that I look ten years younger! I'm even able to manage it myself, the real mark of a great hair cut. My friends are all envious and wish Sean was in the area so that they could go to him. So all you middle age ladies that want to jazz up your look and style for a fresh look, Sean's your guy! read more

I finally went to Entrust Hair for a cut / color / style. Sean is amazing! He gave me a new look with great color. I have been going to the same gal for 4 years and felt I needed a change. Glad I followed my instincts to change it up! Sean is my new sytlist :) read more

Far and away the best hair salon I've ever been to. When it comes business, they know what they are doing. I've been to 3 different salons since I moved to Portland a little over a year ago, some have have had good service or done a decent job with the actual haircut. Entrust is the only place that has exceeded expectations when it comes to the actual haircut and the people are amazing. Sean is the most talented hair stylist I've ever been to. Detail oriented and professional. I couldn't recommend this place more! read more

I can not say enough good things about Entrust hair salon! Lauren does the absolute BEST blonde in Portland. Sean and all the stylists there are so friendly and accommodating. I just love love love Entrust hair! Not to mention the Paul Mitchell products they use are amazing! read more

Sean did an excellent job making my long dark brown hair blonde. I didn't lose any length to damage. My hair is soft and healthy still! He and his wife are such a cute team to be around! The atmosphere was welcoming and they truly cared about my comfort which was very important, since I was there for five hours! His wife even offered to grab me food from across the street! I couldn't have had a better experience. With a procedure that can be a little scary because of the risks of damage to my mid back length hair, the result was exactly what I wanted and I am glad I chose to trust Sean with my hair! The trim is just perfect too! I love the way it looks and how it styles! I couldn't find any reviews of shops that do dark to light and found him through another stylist. That is why I needed to post this! So if you're looking for this kind of work, I hope you find this review and choose to, at the very least, have a consult at Entrust Hair! read more

Sean is really talented when it comes to hair. He styled my hair for a wedding and it was fantastic. He listened to my ideas and came up with a simply awesome design for the day! I would absolutely recommend him to friends. read more

Great cut. I use to go to random spots around town. Never really liking what happened, but not caring too much either. Sean has been doing a great job for me these last couple of years. Yes, there is beer. read more

I heard of Sean at Entrust through two coworkers. A week ago I had another stylist try and give me a bang trim (From another salon), and it just was awful! I walked in for a quick bang trim/fixing w/Sean and walked out feeling a whole lot better! I waited until I got home, and I continue to be even happier with the results. He really knows what he's doing. Not a lot of people know how to do a good bang cut/trim, be he certainly does. 5 stars Mr. Sean, 5 stars.... Thank you, Naomi read more
