Adding a star because this is partially my fault for last-minute booking. However, I’ve been coming here off and on since I first went to the North Portland location and it’s always been reliable. I booked a portlander, which is a 30 min service, I’ve had this service before. The esthetician spent 20 minutes on the service and then said “okay you’re all done” and immediately left the room. Right away I realized the job was SO messy and uneven, but she had left the room with such a swiftness I didn’t have the opportunity to ask for it to be corrected. I have had many of these types of services and I have always had the esthetician ask about any adjustments before ending the service. I have thick hair and it’s not uncommon for me to have shorter hairs that don’t pull and I’m never upset by that. However, (without getting too graphic) I was left with certain areas completely removed on one side and untouched on the other. If the client sits well, don’t rush them out the door with an unfinished service! Honestly upset I spent $90 for something I’m going to have to fix at my own expense. Hate to say I likely won’t be back. :/

I had an incredible facial at The Portland Girl. The staff was very knowledgable and the experience was very relaxing and cathartic. I also loved all the products they used on my face, I could really feel a difference after my appointment. Will be back again soon :) Adding to my review....for my second visit. Just had my first experience with sugaring yesterday with Ashley, and wow it was amazing. Getting a full Brazilian done was naturally a little (jk VERY) daunting, in terms of what I've heard about it being painful and just the vulnerability of it... Ashley made me feel so comfortable and did an incredible job with pain management; she applied counter pressure to waxed areas to alleviate pain. I also appreciate the level of conversation to keep me distracted. I wanted to get this done before going to Mexico on Monday, as I'm 7 months preggo and can't even see what the heck is going on around my bikini line. Well now I feel like million bucks and am feeling confident putting on a bikini for my trip. So happy I finally made an appt for this service and already booked my next appt with Ashley because she is a saint!

I have been using Portland Girl services for 8-10 years for lip and chin hair removal. The staff have always been friendly, courteous and skilled at their job.They have a very well thought out protocol for booking their clients. If you must cancel an appointment they clearly state the terms for doing so. I have utmost respect for the owner's business acumen as she has juggled the challenges of covid, changing locations and the inevitable hiring and training of new employees. I am sure that like with a duck there is much activity I'm not privy to which is how it should be. I only see a smoothly operating business that I have come to rely upon and wish many more years of continued success.

Came to Portland Girl for sugaring before a beach trip. The staff was extremely welcoming and kind. The shop is really cute and comfortable. It was my first time with sugar vs. wax. I wasn't sure what to expect since it'd been a long time since my last waxing, but this experience was quite pleasant, I mean for the most part, any kind of hair removal is not going to feel amazing but this was tame compared to other waxing services I've had in the past. Christy was very patient and kind and made the experience so much better. I highly recommend her when going in for sugaring! I won't go back to waxing either, the results are so much better and it lasts longer.

  • Katie Bider

I went to the Portland Girl and did sugaring for the first time! Very successful. Clean and beautiful location. Wonderful staff! Definitely will go back At last visit, I bought their moisturize cream called ‘hella hydration’. It’s meant for the face and it says it can be used on eczema and other skin conditions. I used it for a few a few days on the eczema patches on my legs and it was a miracle! The redness is gone, the dryness and flaky skin! I have tried so many things and nothing has ever worked as quickly as this!!! Thank you!!!!

I’ve been going to The Portland Girl for about the past 15 months for sugaring of my bikini area. The shop is elegant, clean, and hip. I LOVE the flexibility of online booking! That’s the reason I originally went there. It’s soooo convenient! For my service, I get a cross between the Bushwacker and the Portlander. They’re really flexible and willing to do whatever I need. It’s really nice. The sugaring is quick and relatively low pain. The technicians are professional and friendly and so helpful! I highly recommend this salon!!

  • Tonya Oyala

The Portland Girl has been my go to Studio for sugaring and facial services for about 3 years now. Recently, I started seeing Sarahi for bikini sugaring and let me tell you--she has TALENT. I'm not sure how she does it, but the service is nearly **painless**, quick, comes out perfectly and lasts a long time! She's also a sweetheart and so wonderful to talk to. All the staff here has been fantastic over the years and I will continue to be a client for years to come!

  • Alysia

I am never disappointed in my sugaring experience at The Portland Girl. I’ve been coming regularly for almost a year now and can’t recommend it enough. The space is welcoming, the receptionist is friendly and my sugar-er is great. I feel at ease and comfortable during my visits. Sugaring > waxing. My skin is happier here too. Parking can sometimes be hard, but it’s well worth it. 10/10 would recommend the Portland girl and sugaring. Go visit them!

  • Sarah Meakins

I've seen Savannah in the past and really loved her! This past time I saw someone new, Ashley C. and she was JUST as wonderful! It's great to know that overall feel there is congruent through their staff! I have very sensitive skin and the after care package is amazing and I never have felt so smooth with zero irritation! Even with the initial slight reaction, in a matter of a 24 hours it was gone and just love the way sugaring feels!

  • Melissa Rosenkranz

Today was my first time getting a sugaring service, I have been getting waxed now for over a year and recently moved to Portland and was looking for a salon. Let me tell you, I found THE salon to go to. If you’re not a client here, what are you doing? I had the pleasure of getting the sugaring done by Savannah and she was thorough and informative. Will forever come back here thanks to you and the welcoming front desk women.

  • Rachel Smith

This was my first facial in...a VERY long time. Vi was my esthetician and she was absolutely lovely. She was communicative and gathered what I needed out of the experience down to if I wanted her to walk through each step and product with me or let me relax and wait until the end. The facial was amazing. It's currently only one day after, but I can see and feel the difference and already booked another appointment.

  • JK D

The vibe is great, staff is accommodating and kind. Also holly shiiiiiiit did sugaring change my world. As somone who did regular waxing, sugaring is just so much better! Like 1000x times better!! I was blow away by how (nearly) painless it was (especially in contrast to waxing). Including the more intimate areas. I also had a facial that was so relaxing and my skin came out amazing. I was glowin on my way out

  • Katherine Coleman

I've been going to Christy for over a year now for my Portlander sugaring and I can't recommend her or Portland Girl enough! I always feel welcome, safe and comfortable. I have very sensitive skin & have battled the wonderland area most of my adult life. Their products, techniques and exceptional staff have unburdened me of the bikini struggle. I'll never go back to shaving or waxing! Thank you!

  • Stephanie Hoover

I’ve been going to The Portland Girl for over 5 years. I do a monthly sugaring and facial. I can’t say enough good things. I continue to be impressed with their professionalism, and kindness from scheduling to the actual service. In the past years I have seen many different estheticians and have always had good experiences. The staff is top notch! I also use and love their products!

  • Heather Hardcastle

I have been coming to Portland Girl for over a year now and can’t rave enough about this place! I drive 30–40 minutes for each visit and pass countless places I could have my services done, but I keep coming back because there is nothing not to love about Portland Girl! The business is always clean, and the staff are always incredibly friendly and professional.

  • Bethany Pettinger

I’ve been seeing Sarahi every 6 weeks for almost 2 years. She’s thorough, thoughtful, kind, and a lot of fun to talk with. She makes what can be an awkward/uncomfortable experience- a pleasant one. Other Portland Girl staff I’ve interacted with have been nothing but warm, welcoming, and skilled- it’s such a great shop! Love the complimentary Champaign too!

  • Arianna Kupras

The best facial I have ever received in my life! My esthetician was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and soothing. My facial experience was incredibly relaxing. TPG also utilizes organic products form small, women owned, businesses. I loved the whole experience, and I will definitely be returning again soon!! 10/10 recommending to everyone that I know.

  • Susie O'Larey

10/10 would reccomend! Everyone at The Portland Girl is amazing, love the staff! I've been getting sugared for several years now, and I always have an amazing experience. I'm left with smooth, unirritated skin for weeks. The estheticians are knowledgeable, friendly, and respectful. I tell everyone to go to The Portland Girl for their hair removal needs!

  • Aimee Mattocks

Nadia is amazing!! She genuinely cares for her clients, she always makes me feel comfortable in her care, and the results are outstanding each time! The atmosphere is very relaxing & calming. The lady at the front desk always makes me feel welcomed, she is very kind. :) Definitely check out The Portland Girl for your self-care needs.

  • michele catena

I got my first ever facial! I absolutely loved the experience at the Portland Girl. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The esthetician explained everything in a helpful way while providing a calming and relaxed atmosphere. The lavender CBD facial was delightful. Highly recommend booking a service with them!

  • cas cat

I had a great facial with Savannah! She has. Anice ambience in her room and she's very calm and knowledgeable. I've seen her twice now and would go every month if my checkbook would allow. The main thing I focus on for skin is redness, and anti-aging. I feel like my skin looks great for a few days after a facial.

  • Jennifer Ford

I’ve been coming to The Portland Girl for over a year now! Needless to say, I’m obsessed! Vi is an absolute goddess! I’m plus size and she makes me feel super comfortable with whatever services I’m receiving. I look forward to my appointments each month! I always leave with fresh looking skin and feeling great!

  • Michelle Xenakis

The team from start to finish is incredible! Ashley C has been so professional and explains everything from start to finish. I can’t say it’s pain free but it’s definitely not as painful as I was anticipating. I will definitely be keeping regular appointments with The Portland Girl! So happy I found them

  • Gillian Tobin

Love The Portland Girl! Their facials leave my skin renewed and glowing. I’ve tried the signature and ultimate anti-aging facials and both were really wonderful. I recommend going for the longer facials as you get longer massage and deeper treatments. I’ll keep going back and recommending The Portland Girl!

  • Adriana Bordea

Every time I come here it's always a great experience! I waxed before but my skin always reacted badly. Decided to give sugaring a chance and never going back. Everyone who works here are beyond attentive and knowledgeable. Can't say enough and would definitely recommend them to all! :)

  • Kelly Alston

My husband and I both had a microdermabrasion facial today at their location in the Pearl, and it was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! A big shout out to Ashley & Hailey for their super skills. I've had several facials over the years, but this was the winner. I'll definitely be going back again :)

  • Stephanie Thompson-McCollough

Portland Girl is one of my very favorite places in Portland. The staff are so knowledgeable, kind, helpful, and compassionate. They're so good at what they do. I get facials and sugaring and it's always a wonderful experience. I cannot recommend The Portland Girl enough- book it!

  • Sara Martin

Yay! They give a discount for your second appointment and I'm glad I booked again because I had a great experience with Vi, she was welcoming and warm and made me feel comfortable and relaxed, also she was very thorough and I love the job she did for my Brazilian. Thank you!

  • Of Fur and Feather

Hayley did an amazing job at making me feel comfortable and well taken care of during my facial! I left feeling so relaxed, and my skin felt 10x lighter and nicely exfoliated/moisturized. She was so gentle with extractions and did an incredible job. Will definitely be back!

  • Amanda Layton

What feels like a super vulnerable and scary thing to do is actually one of my favorite parts of the month! I always feel like a NEW WOMAN after visiting The Portland Girl! Everyone here is so kind, professional, and great at what they do. Don't hesitate, BOOK NOW!

  • Elisa Rivera

I got the portland landing strip. I had never been waxed or sugared before. I was very nervous about being so vulnerable with somebody. However I was immediately put at ease by the friendliness of the staff and the adorable atmosphere. The

I’ve been going to The Portland Girl for several years, first in Dekum and now at the Morrison location. They’ve always been super friendly and professional, and everything is clean and comfortable. Ashley T. really knows her stuff!

  • Meghan Carver

I’ve always had great service here! Love the mimosa they give you beforehand and I’ve never had issues afterwards. It’s not always super comfortable getting sugared but they never make you feel awkward. Would definitely recommend.

  • Michele Stone

Had a glorious facial from Hailey. I wasn't sure what services I needed, but she left me feeling relaxed and deeply moisturized, and I scheduled my next session before leaving. And bonus points for the guava mimosa when I arrived!

  • Kate McCue

I had such a great experience here! Vi was amazing and we had a great chat the whole time which took my mind off the waxing. I was very happy with the service! I’ll definitely be using Portland Girl from now on for all sugaring!
