CALLING ALL BLONDES FOR JASMIN: This is legitimately my first review EVER. I wanted to give a special to shout out to Jasmin because she knocked it out of the park. I've been getting my hair highlighted at Di Pietro Todd in S.F. for ten plus years because I lived there. I've always desired the cool toned blondes. Jasmin did exactly that and was extremely thorough. She's not only a gifted colorist, but she is such a kind person as well. It's refreshing! I'd gone to two salons prior in Portland and left with lackluster results. I will sing Jasmin praises because she is a talented woman. Not to mention she uses Goldwell color, which I think is one of the best. Thank YOU...read full review

Melanie Trayer at J A M E S has that magic balance of science, art, and hard-trained skill. She has an incredible eye for color, and is a constant student of her industry. I always feel amazing after she's done my hair and I LITERALLY get stopped by strangers complimenting me on it. Plus she understands the physics of cutting curls, which is a rare and precious thing.

I came to James salon years ago after a stylist elsewhere had fried 6 inches of my hair in green and orange tones trying to give me highlights! Jasmine fixed it in one go! She does better hair than anyone I’ve ever come across and is a true expert. I live out of state and still fly back to her to do my hair. No one even comes close. HIGHLY recommend Jasmine if you want gentle, expert color and an elegant cut that will last. She’s incredible.
