The salon space, experience, and expertise of Presley is nothing short of stunning. My 13 year old daughter has never been happier with her curly hair. Presley was so patient and kind—walking her through the steps for home care, breaking everything into simple steps (which were surprisingly less complicated than I thought it would it be!) and building her confidence. I've never seen my daughter so excited, smiling ear to ear, and in love with her new look. We can't wait to go back and feel so grateful that Presley is in Portland. If you're in the area, what are you waiting for?! The expertise, patience, and attention to what her client's hair wants to do and celebrating it, makes Presley a true gem. We're so grateful!

Absolutely wonderful experience. Great location & environment. Presley explained everything she did before she did it & helped my daughter understand her own hair & how to care for it. We have searched everywhere for a skilled curly hair expert. We found her! She honored her length while getting great shape & style.

I’ve been going to Presley for years, and I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair. Her expertise and knowledge are unmatched, she’s truly one of a kind. Presley gives the best curly haircuts, and the whole appointment feels like an experience, not just a haircut. From the moment you walk in, she makes you feel welcomed and listened to. She explains the process step by step, making sure you’re comfortable the entire time. Her studio is not only a creative space but also a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment. I always look forward to my visits, and I absolutely adore Presley. She’s wonderful, and I can’t recommend her enough! She gives amazing product recommendations and I don’t trust anyone the way I trust her. She’s an amazing person, beautiful inside and out. Please give her a visit!

Presley has made cutting hair a science! I was initially drawn to her due to her curly cut videos on Instagram. I have thin, low density, inconsistently curly hair. I’ve always struggled with crown volume. I’ve seen a handful of curly specialists on the past, but Presley was the first one to break down my curl pattern with me, educate me on what was realistic for my hair, and give me some direction on how to achieve my goals. I ended up having a perm!! She matched some of my tighter curl pattern, so now I have curls throughout and so much more volume. I basically have the hair I always wanted and never thought I could achieve. 10/10 would recommend.

Chelsea is incredible. Full stop. For being someone who’s decided to go from grown out professional black hair dye to blonde before, no one compares to the skill level Chelsea has to process that and keep the full integrity of my hair. She’s so kind and knowledgeable and will not get mad at you when you decide you don’t want to be blonde anymore and dye it dark again. I love her, if I ever move I will travel for her. I’ve never received so many compliments on my hair and I tell whoever I’m talking to, to go see her. She’s worth every penny and more.
