Hair M Downtown

"Was my first time really taking an interest in a haircut at a quality salon. Yvonne talked me through everything I asker her and gave me the best haircut I've probably ever had. She recommended products I'd need to stay looking good. They also have great services like free neck shaves and cheaper shave trims if you just want to get touched up and looking good again. Great place and definitely going again next time. Plus Yvonne was great!"

"I've learned that it's tough to navigate the world of haircuts as a guy with long hair. My go-to salon is temporarily out of commission and I needed a trim, so I gave this place a try. I had been to Hair M in Lake Oswego one time before (when I had short hair) and it was fantastic. I live closer to downtown now so I decided to give this location a shot. With longer hair (past my shoulders) I generally only get about 2 cuts a year, so I really rely on the stylist to know what will work for my face shape and hair quality and interpret what I'm asking for into something that actually looks good. Prior to booking I called to ask if anyone specialized in longer hair and was told anyone could do it, so I booked one of the lvl 7 stylists and figured I'd treat myself with the mini spa/massage treatment as well. In short, it was all just "fine," but the haircut was even a little disappointing. The stylist pretty much cut my hair straight across with no layering, thinning or shaping, and went a little shorter than what I had asked for. So I ended up with a sort of big triangle bob once my hair dried that didn't look good down or up. But I'm not one to make a fuss and besides what am I going to do once the hair is already cut and gone. The massage/spa portion was also just fine, I appreciated the hand massage but had to spend a few minutes just trying to wipe all the goopy lotion of my hands and arms to the point where it felt excessive and the stylist was back at the chair just waiting for me. I've been thinking about it for a couple months now and watching as my hair grows back, and I'm pretty sure I won't be back as a regular customer. This place clearly does a great job with shorter men's cuts, but I think that as with most places that cater to men's haircuts specifically they just aren't used to cutting longer hair on men... or maybe I just got a one-off bad cut on a bad day. In short, probably safe to come here with short hair, otherwise go wherever your wife/girlfriend/sister/female friend goes and you'll get a much better cut for your longer hair at about the same price point."

"Great facility, really friendly atmosphere. Ashley has a fantastic feel for what will look good, even when it feels like I am guessing about what I might want. The King’s Cut is a great value and always brightens my day significantly."

"Jen is simply fantastic. She very quickly understood my weird head and I walked out looking Fine! Kings Cut Pro Tip while she is fun to chat with, just relax and silently soak in the bliss of the Tea Tree scalp massage. I’d go every week if my hair would just grow faster!"

"TLDR; Hands down THE best haircut I've ever had! I will certainly be coming here for future haircuts for as long as I can. I have struggled for pretty much my whole life with trying out different haircuts and finding one that I really liked. Eventually, I just gave up and decided to just grow my hair out so that I could avoid haircuts all together. After about 8 years I decided I needed a change and stumbled upon Hair M, and I am so glad that I did. The staff and the stylist were so welcoming and accommodating which helped calm my nerves about getting a haircut after so long. The stylist absolutely knocked it out of the park with my hair cut. I opted for their "standard cut" option and the quality and details of the haircut I received are things that I wouldn't have ever known how to articulate when describing what I wanted. This really shows that the stylist has a deep understanding of her craft and lots of experience to be able to give me a haircut that feels like it fits me so well. After my haircut I had to stop at the store and the cashier gave me a compliment on my hair which had never happened to me before. Every time I looked in the mirror I just couldn't help but smile because I was so happy with how it looked. Safe to say they have won me over as a customer and I would recommend them to anyone that is looking to get a high quality cut."
