Provided by YP.comI went to get my hair done. I chose this salon because it's an Aveda Salon. Well, I won't make that mistake again. This place is a Super Cuts hidden in the mall reselling Aveda Products. The staff has no clue how the products should be used.
Let's chat about my hair. I went in asking for brown. I like to give stylist the means to show me their creativity. So, that's all I said. I ended up with BLACK HAIR. That wasn't the worse part. I had black dye all around my head and in my ears. I came back that day. She couldn't remove it. She was using the exfoliate product to do this. That product is used to clean the face.
I spoke with the manager. She was not stylist! She was telling me that happen. NO!!! You don't pay $200 for a color job and get an inch of dye around your head.
I suggested she retrain the stylist... that was a new idea to her. She kept asking what do I want. I wanted it not to happen. There was no way I was going back to this place and not just because my hair looked like HELL.
The manager is not a stylist. She had no clue there are special products to remove dye from the skin.
Well, IDIOT here you go!
Revlon Roux Clean Touch - Hair color Stain Remover: This is rumored to work very well; even being able to remove some clothing stains.
Tweezerman PRIMA-TINT Tint and Color Remover: This one is all natural and works on both skin and clothing.
Also, the place is dirty!!!! I had the feeling I should of left when my stylist was 10 mins late for the first appt of the day.
I didn't, next time I will..
So, I thank you GIGI salon. You taught me several great lessons.
Don't select a salon by the Aveda website!
RUN out the door if you get the feeling something is wrong about the place.
Don't be polite and worry about causing a scene when you realize a stylist screws up. Cause the scene that is the only satification you are going to get out of this.

Provided by YP.comWalking in and getting a pedicure here is a treat. I go to the Washington Square Shop and its my "me time".
Ashe is always friendly and happy to see me and her massage leaves me ready to skip.
Because it is an Aveda Salon I love the smells and the sense of peace I feel with the Day Spa like atmosphere.
I also enjoy the facial treatment and skin care help.

Provided by YP.comthe front stylist were not friendly. They also do not take walk-ins. I live four hours away and came to shop and explore portland. I came in twice to see if they could fit me in and after I was told to come back at a certain hour so that I could get my hair done and was turned away the second time. Never well I ever stop by this place again!
