Pinn Salon

I have just moved to the city and I took a chance on the salon, based on their Unilocal reviews. Alexandra gave me a great blow dry, and knew exactly what I needed for my hair type. I purchased some hair oil as well, and was very pleased with it. They stand behind their products, with good reason! I have found a new favourite Portland salon!

I love Jess, I think she is truly an artist with hair. I love a little color in my hair and I get so many compliments on what she does.
The salon is quite cool too. I’d try and describe it but I wouldn’t do it justice. The other stylists that I’ve seen seem to know what they’r doing and it just has a good vibe.

I made a Unilocal account just for this review; Kelsea Jensen is awesome! Kelsea is very friendly and super knowledgeable. I felt comfortable from the moment I sat down in the chair. She listened to what I was looking for, provided suggestions, and walked me through the balayage process, letting me know what was happening every step of the way. She did a wonderful job and I’m so happy with my new blonde color. Highly recommend!

Ask for Kelsea. She did an amazing job on my gray/​silver ombré and A line haircut! She is super fun to talk to, gave me great advice and taught me how to style my new do.

I love this salon. They took really good care of me. I know getting haircuts at new places can be a little intimidating but Pinn Salon took really good care of me. I would totally go back to this place for every haircut!!!

Best cut and experience I have ever had! Jess Knight is a true artist. She is interested in how your hair looks a month after the cut, not just when you walk out.
There is no sales pressure for products that happens in other places. Great location for a beauty and shopping day.

I’ve been seeing Crystal for a few years now, and followed her when she opened up this new salon. She is super confident and I can always trust her for a fabulous cut, and have been trying new styles with her as well which always turn out great (and love receiving compliments regarding her work too)! I’ve referred a few coworkers there who were also very happy with the results.
The salon is super nice, stylish and clean. Highly recommended!

Another amazing visit with Crystal at Pinn. Finally found a great color formula that makes my hair look gorgeous.

Speaking for both my wife and myself we always leave Crystal’s chair extremely happy with our cut and styling. She is a great listener and always grasps the styling details we try to convey. I cannot convey how great she really is!

Cutest little salon! It just opened and they made it so beautiful and fancy. I really love the style. It’s always very clean, the staff is always super friendly, they even offer you beer while you get your hurr did! My stylist Kelsea is awesome!!! AND they even have online booking! Fantastic

Where do I even start?! This place is amazing! I don’t give out 5 stars so easily, in my book, it needs to be earned. Specially when it comes to services being provided (Us ladies have a very strong attachment to our hair, this is something, we take very seriously, well I know I do for sure!) This is my second time seeing Crystal! The first time I came in was for a cut and color. I’m Filipino, so we have dark black/​silky hair. I told her I wanted a change and needed to blend it with spring coming along. Crystal listened patiently and we agreed on a game plan! Can I just say, how many heads turned and the shower of compliments just the moment I walk in to work the next day?! It was so beautiful done, even one of our big bosses said something about it! And he’s a guy! (I work for corporate). So when I decided, I’m ready for a huge shocker effect type of hair; the only stylist that came in mind was Crystal! First, let me just say, Crystal is very honest and up front about what a client wants and what can actually be done with what type of hair you have. She could have simply just said, oh yes, sure I can do that! But nope, she looked at the photo I brought in and smiled and told me «Okay, this can be done, but I don’t believed I booked enough time for what you are wanting, and I don’t want to rush it either.» I agreed and knew what I was wanting was literally one of the most difficult color to do, and if done wrong, it can be a disaster! And did I already mention, I have a very dark black resistant hair color?! She knew I’ll be flying out on vacation in two weeks, so she cancelled her plans on her day off and booked me today as her only client! We communicated the whole time before I came in for my appointment, which made me feel so much better hence, this is the lightest I had ever gone. Hours later, and I couldn’t hold the excitement, even when my hair was still wet, I could already see the colors. Then bam, it’s dried and styled! My jaw dropped, she had nailed the damn colors! I wanted grey/​silver but with a dark ashtone under lying, like who comes up with that stuff,?! I know, right. But anyways, this has been an epic review per Unilocal so far. So if you’re looking, or had a bad experience from a previous stylist, come and see Crystal! She is not only amazing but the place itself is gorgeous! Just he detailed put on every single furniture and ornament! Oh and it’s freaking super clean (Which earned them an A+ in my book!) Here is my before and after photo

Crystal has been cutting my hair for years and she never disappoints. She listens to what you want, provides quality feedback and knows how to handle curls.
I definitely recommend checking out her new salon. It is absolutely stunning.

Lacey did a beautiful job cutting my very fine hair. I am very picky and after having suffered through some previous bad cuts, she went above and beyond (spent WAY more time than most would on just a cut) to assure she produced a cut that reflected what I envisioned. The salon itself is lovely and decorated chic but not overthought. I’ll definitely be returning.

First time here at Pinn Salon. The atmosphere was very hip and friendly. A good friend of mine had recommended a stylist, Kelsea Jensen. She took my boring hair, and gave me a layered look with a rich, deep brunette. It came out perfectly and she made it a super fun experience. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a color or cut

New salon with a dedicated owner.

I visited Pinn Salon a week ago and this place was my saving grace after a disastrous dye job (at a local salon that shall remain nameless). Per a friend’s recommendation I contacted Pinn Salon on Saturday to schedule an appointment for color correction. They were super friendly over the phone and able to get me in with Lacey that following Monday. First impression: the salon is GORGEOUS– from the retro wallpaper to the redwood stylist station, every detail is perfection. The location is unbeatable. They use R+Co products which are my absolute favorite and a nice suprise because Ive been looking all over for a place to buy them. The prices are totally reasonable and affordable. Most importantly, Lacey is adorable and extremely talented. She took time to consult with me on the most practical and feasible way to fix the fried, two-​toned, striped, sloppy mess that lay on top of my head. It took two appointments 1. To get it looking like human hair again and 2. To get it to where I wanted it, but it was well worth the investment because my hair is RAD now! Seriously, like I received so many compliments on my hair from complete strangers in the past week that my head has inflated to Pez dispenser-​like proportions. So to sum it up, Pinn Salon has won me over and I will return in 2 – 3 months for a trim assuming that I do not run off to LA to pursue a career in hair modeling before that time comes. =)

I have followed around my favorite stylist, Jess Knight, to several salons and I would continue to follow her skills anywhere. Fortunately she now works here, at Pinn salon. Pinn is beautiful, clean and in a fun neighborhood! Jess is so talented, I always feel in good hands. Plus talking and laughing with her is so easy and comfortable. She always greets me with a sweet smile and offers suggestions for styling. Check her out!

Great salon! Friendly staff, great prices and the inside is super cute. Jess cut my hair and does an amazing job every time. I have super thick wavy/​curly hair and she always does an excellent job thinning it out and always cuts my bangs just right.

I followed my stylist — Jess Knight — to her new location at Pinn Salon and am so glad I did. The place has just opened, along with so many great new restaurants, bars and café’s in the neighborhood.
Beautiful, upscale salon that fits my budget, which is much appreciated. Setting an appointment is super easy through their site and you can even opt into a reminder via text if you like.
On the actual hair styling, it doesn’t get better than Jess. Super chill stylist who will have you laughing through out and looking great by the end of your session. My hair is ‘difficult’ (thick, coarse) and she doesn’t bat an eye.
Get your hair cut and then go explore the up and coming neighborhood.
