I just received the BEST haircut ever from Jaime Jean. I am new to Portland and did my research on a salon I felt wouldbe a good fit. I felt confident walking in the door from the stellar reviews on various websites that Jaime Jean would understand my weird curly-in-some-places/frizzy-straight in others hair. Well...she more than exceeded my expectations and I am loving my new cut and style. At the pre-cut consultation she asked lots of questions, then meticulously cut layers to address my issues. She also provided great education going forward on how to deal with my hair struggles, I have had lots of compliments on my new style and will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you, Jaime Jean!

Finding a stylist who is good at color and who also knows how to work with fine and straight hair is a challenge, but Barri Chase knocked it out of the park! They custom mixed my color and the experience at Akemi Salon was so warm and welcoming I will definitely be back. Barri turned my mousy ash brown hair from ordinary to extraordinary!Services: Haircut

Finding the right stylist who understands color, and how to cut and style hair that is very straight and fine is a challenge in this town, but Barri Chase hit it out of the park! She is a true artist. I have gotten so many compliments on my hair!! She custom mixed my color to get the right tint. My look went from ordinary to extraordinary. I will definitely keep booking with her!
