Just had an excellent haircut and bread trim by Kyle H. The shop is very comfortable.

What can I say, I always leave feeling satisfied and looking fresh. I've had Chris Morgan as my barber since before they opened up this spot. Love this location and service! It's got that PNW - Portland vibe. The barbers are all very chill, but professionals at what they do. If you need a great cut, trim or shave, come here, grab a drink, relax and let these guys take care of your grooming needs! read more

Couldn't be happier with my hair! Dylan always does an amazing job! I'm so confident in his work that I now tell him "do whatever you're feeling today". He works well with the shape of my head and the flow of my hair. He always over delivers! I noticed comments about him "misgendering" individuals. As a trans man myself, I've never experienced this problem. If anything Dylan asks respectful questions to gain a better understanding of his clients and what they bring to the table. He's never crossed any boundaries with regards to barber shop banter. Thank you for making me look good Dylan! read more

This place is abandoned. Not sure why it's still up, but when I showed up for my appointment, the whole facility was in remodel mode and not open to the public. Would be nice if a business could simply update their business on maps read more

After a long time without a professional haircut, Brielle took care of me no problem. Her work is no joke but her personality is so much fun! She asked some questions about what I was looking for, I answered as best as I could, and left looking and feeling fly as a mofo. I recommend her to everyone and anyone! read more

Stumbled across this gem of a barbershop tonight, after visiting Modern Times and found my new go to in Portland. Every time I fly in from SF this will be my new go to! Isaiah gave me one of the best haircuts I've ever had, and was able to squeeze me in even though he was technically off the clock on a holiday weekend which was really considerate of him. Extremely happy with the cut and would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a quality cut. read more

Northwest Barber Association - Great fade! - Barbers Near Me - Portland, Oregon

A friend was running late for dinner and I needed a haircut as my precious stylist ghosted me. I walked in and Brielle was available and the rest is history. I haven't met anyone that pays as much attention to detail as she does. She was a great listener and payed attention to detail and asked questions along the way. Place was clean, had chill music and zero Portland BS. Both my partner and I are now regulars. read more

I have been getting my hair done at NWBA since this summer and it has changed my life. Brielle aka Breezy is an artist with scissors. I had just gotten this terrible pixy cut at a salon where the hairstylist did not listen to what I asked for and overcharged me before I met Brielle. Every time I sit in the chair at NWBA my experience is the exact opposite. I feel heard, seen, and like a human being, not just a dollar sign. When Breezy cuts your hair she pays attention to every little detail, she listens to what you want and adds a little bit of magic! You always leave the shop feeling fresh and confident! read more

Love the staff here. Having gone to another local barber shop prior, I can say that the Northwest Barber Association is awesome. Chris is always super talkative, interested, and cuts hair incredibly well. Time flies when you're there, and they're great hosts. Lastly, there is normally lots of street parking, which will definitely help make the experience easier. read more

I bounce from barber to barber depending on my schedule and I consistently get a great haircut no matter who I use; always on time, place is always clean, staff is always pleasant read more

Great place! I've walked by many times while walking the pups and finally decided to give it a go this afternoon. I did not have an appointment, but I was still offered a beverage and Isaiah kindly took me in for a cut. PS - You can easily book an appointment on their website I discovered afterward. I definitely recommend checking this place out. The location is perfect, the people are friendly and accepting (even whilst outside scootering around the neighborhood), and most importantly my hair looks and feels great. Thanks for a great experience NWBA! read more

Chill space. Good location. I followed Dylan Cruz here from Throne, where I was going for years before. He always hooks up the cleanest of cuts - will continue to go to NWBA for my monthly line up. read more

Northwest Barber Association - Cut from Dylan - Barbers Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I've been going to Brielle since I've moved here which was almost a year ago. She has always got me in last minute no matter the day or time. (I need to get my schedule figured out). She has MAD skills for all styles and brows. I always let her do whatever she wants because I know I'll leave looking fresh AF. I get so many compliments from the hairstyles she gives me along with the line work and fades/Style. I 100% would recommend getting your hair done by Brielle as her customer service is top notch. She is very personable, sweet and kind hearted. Brielle is quick and efficient and has Mad skills. Brielle is the one who even did my wedding burst cut/color/ and line work. I have originally very dark Mexican/Asian brown hair and Brielle was able to bring it to the color that I wanted first time. (Very. Very. Whitish blonde.). If you are reading this to find yourself a barber 100% go to Brielle, her insta is (Steezbybreez) you can see how much talent she holds. Down below are pics from my natural hair color, and what she was able to my hair to be for my wedding. Also she does my husbands hair as well. When he gets a haircut. Lol read more

I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted when I walked in, but Logan took what I said and did an amazing job cutting and styling my hair. It's perfect. read more

((Edit: Colin gave me and my friend a full refund and was very professional with the situation, which is why I changed my review from one star to two stars. I am not going to rewrite my review as it was my experience, but I do appreciate Colin's professionalism))It's honestly impressive how much they were able to mess up my hair. Came in for a walk-in and made an appointment for half an hour later. Whoever was working the desk was super friendly and offered me and my friend drinks for our wait. A few minutes later, Dylan came to get me. I told him all I wanted was to trim my sides to a two fading to a one and to fix my crown (it was cut too long at my last haircut), and to Dylan that translated to "taper the sides to a fade and cut the top to the length of the poorly cut crown". Throughout the entire haircut he was extremely rude and sarcastic and mocked the way my hair grows out instead of down and how I just "roll out of bed and don't give a fuck about how you look disgusting". He also continuously misgendered me, even after me telling him that I am a transgender man, hence the reason I was in a barber shop. But the actual haircut just turned out awful. I now have a round, short bowl cut on top and a tapered fade in back. In hindsight, I should've asked him to fix it or just give me a buzzcut afterwards- but I was so jaded and just fed up with the smart ass quips that I just gave him his money and waited as my friend got her hair cut. All the other barbers seemed to be great guys, but I'm honestly just so pissed about how a seemingly higher brow barber shop could employ a man who has no idea how to cut hair or simply listen to his customers. There's nothing wrong with some wit, but it crosses the line when you insult the man paying you $32 for a trim. Definitely won't be coming around here a read more

Northwest Barber Association - The haircut I got after it dried down. Can't believe someone can mess up this bad. - Barbers Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Outstanding barbershop and location. I've followed Cory Lee from Modern Man to Rooks to Brick & Mortar and I'm happy to say I've followed him to his own piece of the pie barbershop. What has been said of his professionalism, quality of cuts, and friendship throughout the years continues to this day at Northwest Barber Association. No pretentious hipster barbershop (which might as well be called a high-class salon) vibes. It's just chill barbers doing what they do best: cut hair. I'm glad to see that other amazing barbers have followed Cory as well (Alycia, Isaiah, and Lindsay) whose work I've admired as Cory does his thing to my hair. read more

I wandered into this shop a while back and had the incredible luck of having a seat in Nate's chair. The vibe of the shop is super comfortable and relaxed, all the staff are super friendly, and I got a fade that left me feelin f l a w l e s s. I'd recommend anybody in the area stop by here for a cut. Nate's attention to detail was surgical, and all my friends immediately noticed that I got a dope new haircut and wanted to know who did it. read more

I recently moved my office to the neighborhood and was looking for a new barber. Looked this place up online and followed their website to make an appointment online (which is a big perk!). Nate gave me some really great advice on a new cut and style and executed it perfectly. 10 minutes after leaving I got online and booked my next appointment. read more

Breezy/Brielle is one of the most professional barbers I know in the Portland area. She takes the time and care to create a masterpiece on my head every time, always comes in with a chill demeanor, has a smile that lights up the room, and is down to have some interesting and engaging conversations. If you're looking for a fade, she's got you. Long hair.. not a problem. You want bleach blonde hair? She will make it happen! I'm not lying when I say she can literally do it all. I've never been happier to get my hair cut and/or colored because I know that I will be leaving looking fresh and feeling good. P.S. for an added bonus, this shop serves beer and whiskey. read more

I've been looking for a good "Go-To" barber for the past couple of years since my old barber moved away. I came across Northwest Barber Association and have now had my hair cut with Nate Easton a few times. Safe to say I've found my go-to. Their location is super convenient, their website is super easy to book with and works great on my phone. They offer you a drink (liquor, beer, water, coffee) while you wait and the set up is clean and modern. Nate has been super easy to work with and understands what I try to convey each time, which can be really difficult to get across in words sometime. read more

I scheduled my first ever appointment here and never got a confirmation email so I didn't show up. I then decided to schedule for another day to see if that would work out and luckily I got my confirmation email for the new date but they went ahead and charged me $17 for a cancellation fee for an appointment I never knew was happening because I didn't receive the confirmation :/ The barbers here look good though so I'm not going to bag on them but I am annoyed read more

Best joint around I'm a crowded field of great spots. Clean shop with pro staff and pro attitude. After I found Nate, he's the only dude I'll let cut my hair in town but I know the whole crews got chops. Solid recommend. read more

Dylan Cruz is the absolute best! He cuts my boyfriends hair and never disappoints. Dylan is always thorough, consistent and talented in his cuts. It also doesn't hurt that he's such a genuine guy that you can enjoy spending 30-45 minutes with! Go see Dylan at the Northwest Barber Association, you won't regret it. read more

What a great experience at this barbershop. I had my hair done with Brielle, she did a razor cut on me, tapering the back of my neck. I found her through instagram {@Lostboybarber} and was pleased thoroughly from start to finish. What a talented artist and great conversation. It was very warming to see the barbers interact with eachother it is clear they are all very close and comfortable. I almost forgot to mention I was instantly greeted and treated to a shot of whiskey. They really set the bar high at this place for customer service. Thank you for making me feel so comfortable. read more

Nice space with high ceilings and great people inside. The barbers care about your experience and that matters. Chris T is especially knowledgeable and skilled. He's also good at getting to know you, recommending styles and describing products. What sets him apart is the consultation - learning about you, your needs, and what it will take to make you look good. Be confident in him and the shop! read more

I had an appointment with Brielle (@lostboybarber) and had a wonderful experience! Brielle was very sweet and personable not the mention my haircut came out amazing! The shop felt inclusive for the queer community and Brielle was very queer affirming as well. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Dylan at Northwest Barber Association has the most consistent cut in the game and is the cats pajamas. 11/10 recommend.

First time going here, will definitely be coming back regularly. Great location, friendly staff. I have been going to Nate for a few years now when he was at Cloak and dagger. So naturally when he left I followed him to his new spot here. He's always very friendly and professional. The quality of his cuts never disappoints. I'm always very happy with his work when I leave. When people ask me where to get a good quality cut I always tell them to go to him. Looking forward to coming back soon! read more

Unbelievably wonderful experience. They are knowledgeable, through and it's one of the best haircuts I have ever received. I should know since I've been a barber myself for 20 years. If you looking for unparalleled talented and professionalism look no further than NWBA. Truly a worthwhile experience. Cory has created a a space that is both relaxed and inviting. I look forward to many more haircuts here. read more

I have known Cory for a while, and the shop and crew here are awesome. Really neat vibe and great customer service. I have had my hair cut by Cory, Chris, Isaiah, and Nate. They always do a great job! I'm sure the other barbers are awesome too. This place is definitely one to check out. Just for reference I have been going here all the way from Beaverton. It's worth it. read more

Best haircut in Portland. Dylan in particular is not only interested in making sure the haircut looks good, but that that the customer is so satisfied in the entire service that they can't see themselves going anywhere else. Highly recommend! read more
