2025-12-18Jenna did my hair and she was just absolutely amazing. She was super communicative, helpful, gentle, and understanding of my vision. She was very reassuring and checking in on me to make sure I was liking what she was doing. She was also super funny and personable which made the experience even more enjoyable. I definitely look forward to getting my hair done with her again. It was wonderful!

2025-08-3010/10 recommend. Julia was absolutely amazing, it was like having a best friend doing your hair! I went from a red flat hair to this stunning brown, with face framing bangs and multi layers. All of the teachers were super nice and helped Julia and I pick out the perfect color for me! I have absolutely NO complaints. If I could rate the experience, price, and service it would be 10000 out of 100! Thank you to Paul Mitchell Portsmouth for making me feel beautiful again!!!

2025-10-08Went to Danica (dan.i.cuts on IG) for a dye design in my hair. She absolutely killed the design, better than expected and the price was incredible reasonably. Environment was clean and inviting. Will be back again! Highly recommended!

2025-09-08Liliah was great overall. The cut (trim) was just right. She asked good questions. But she left the hair color on my roots for too long. And I believe too light of a touch and time to set when she was pulling the color through to the ends. Also, she could have been more thorough to take the color on my skin at the front hair line.
