    Long hair don't care (because now it will do itself!) #japzillian
    Jacqueline H.

    Kevin is an absolute doll, 100% authentic, and committed to your happiness - with your hair and your life. He has a wonderful energy, soul, and dedication to his craft. If you are new or have had straightening before, he will help you make the best choice for your hair and will make the time fly by in his working (aka living) space. This is not a quick process, nor should it be, and he will help you get the best result. You get what you pay for when it comes to hair, and life, and this is not a service where you want to cut corners. Thank you Kevin, for sharing your passion and amazing skills!

    So I just moved here but previously I had been in the area and Jason cut my hair so naturally I made an appointment when I got to Portland and he did not disappoint at all!!! I am in love with my hair!! Jason knows how to please and I'm hooked! Super cute place at that!

    Had my first Brazilian blowout and am in awe! Seems too good to be true. Had my first wash and my hair is actually still straight. When I think of 20 years of curls with a mind of their own and hundreds on blowouts and hair products, the cost more than pays for itself. Kevin makes the process painless and easy. He's also highly knowledgeable and cares about healthy hair which I really appreciate! I've had other stylists from trendy salons dye away without any real recommendations. Not Kevin-he's a true professional! Also he does an amazing job on color too!

    Kevin is a hair GOD! I had very thick, curly hair and I wanted it straight. I did my research to make sure I knew what I was doing. Even after all the research, I was still a little afraid. But I should not have been. Kevin took care of me like no hair stylist has done it before. We agreed to do the Japanese Thermal Straightening and the Brazilian blowout together because of my hair type. The process is long and expensive, but I would do it ALL OVER again. Kevin is very funny, fast and knowledgeable about both processes. The results were unbelievable! I have no more curls and my hair looks soooooooooo natural & healthy (it does not look like I had it straightened). It has movement and it is sooooooo shinning! Every where I go people compliment my hair and the person to thank is Kevin! From now on he is my hair stylist.

    The day after washing. Greasy looking and limp.

    Edit 6/26/16: The owner, Kevin, called me after I posted this review to let me know how sorry he was that this happened, that he had never received my email, and all the stylists are self employed, renting space from him. He did offer to give me another treatment, which I declined because my hair is finally returning to normal, 2 months post treatment. Original review: The smoothing treatment by Gina ruined my hair. I purchased the Groupon with Gina after I called to make sure it would work for my fine hair that gets frizzy in humidity. She assured me it would and told me to do my color first. The smoothing treatment stripped the color from my hair, made my hair limp and greasy looking so that I had to start washing it daily, and gave me a ton of split ends. I contacted Gina who flat out refused to do anything to try to help me. She didn't even want me to send her pictures of my hair. She even suggested that I try to get a refund from Groupon, for a service that she rendered. I also sent an email to the salon owner, but he neglected to respond at all. I contacted the manufacturer of the solution, Keratherapy, who have been great, sent me free products to try try and make up for it. The manufacturer said that #1 based on my before pic they wouldn't have recommended the treatment for my texture of hair at all, and #2 the color was stripped because the iron was either too hot for my texture or she made too many passes with it. They have been trying to contact Gina to discuss what went wrong, but that has come to nothing. I understand that things happen sometimes with chemical treatments, but the lack of customer service that I received from this salon in beautiful downtown Portland was appalling.

    Eyebrow makeover by Mandy!

    As I've recently started coloring my hair darker, I've been wanting to try eyebrow tinting, but have been nervous to do it. Mandy did not disappoint! I waited to grow out my brows so I could get a nice wax too & she was excellent at giving them shape & definition. I will definitely be back!

    Thanks for turning my lion's mane into pure silk, Kevin!
    Sarah S.

    Looking for a fun salon experience while getting the hair of your dreams? Then visit G2! Kevin is a wonderful stylist who's also an absolute joy to be around. He turned my lion's mane into pure straight silk. Kevin has great attention to detail and gave my worn-out hair the TLC it needs. His prices are very reasonable, especially for big processes like Japanese hair straightening and Brazilian Blowout. I will never go anywhere else!

    New cut.

    So Kevin ended up accentuating the grey and coloring over the red-brown hair with a beautiful cool brown/black.

    Hair Magic in the Pearl District! If you are looking for a…read moresalon that perfectly captures that effortless, cool Portland aesthetic while delivering high-end, professional results, Carbon Salon is the absolute gold standard. Located in the Pearl District, this space is sleek, industrial-chic, and home to some of the most talented stylists in the Pacific Northwest. Here is why Carbon Salon is my forever go-to: The Atmosphere: The salon itself is stunning--think high ceilings, exposed brick, and a modern, minimalist vibe that feels luxurious but never pretentious. It's the kind of place where you can truly relax and feel pampered from the moment you walk in. The Consultation: My stylist took the time to actually listen to what I wanted. They didn't just look at my inspo photos; they checked my hair texture, discussed my daily routine, and helped me choose a cut and color that would actually work for my lifestyle. Masterful Color: I went in for a lived-in balayage, and the results were flawless. The blending is so seamless that it grows out beautifully without any harsh lines. They are clearly experts in "low-maintenance luxury" hair. The "Little Things": The head massage during the shampoo was life-changing, and the high-quality products they use (like Oribe and R+Co) left my hair feeling healthier than when I walked in. Plus, the coffee/beverage selection is a lovely touch! Professional & Kind Staff: Every person on the team is welcoming and genuinely passionate about what they do. You can tell the stylists there are constantly leveling up their skills and stay on top of the latest trends. Pro Tip: This salon is extremely popular, so definitely book a few weeks in advance. If you're looking for a total transformation or just a high-quality trim that actually holds its shape, this is the place. I walked out feeling like a million bucks. Thank you, Carbon Salon, for always nailing the vision!

I lost a good amount of hair the last couple of years due to some surgeries and then going on HRT (hormones). It was starting to bum me out and my colorist recommended Kristina. I'm so elated that she did! My hair feels and looks like it did before the stressful couple of years happened, and I feel like myself again with a little bit of extra umph because the extensions are making my hair feel even healthier. She matched my color to a T as well as the waves I have in my hair. I'm stoked on that because then I don't have to style it often... I can just let it air dry and it's exactly like my real hair! I didn't want extensions that looked like extensions and she did an incredible job. She's also super sweet and wonderful to chat with. Highly highly recommend her!!

She matched the extensions to my hair color and texture so well, I can barely tell where my hair ends and the extensions begin. What I appreciated most was the aftercare tips Kristina gave me - they were super practical and easy to follow. It's clear she doesn't just do this for a living; she does it because she loves it, and that passion shines through in her work. If you're on the fence about where to go for extensions, look no further.
