Portia has been serving me for years and she is awesome! She is very knowledgable and efficient. My hair always looks amazing when I leave her salon. She is very personable and I'm not sitting in the salon all day. She's a great stylist to serve professional business women promoting healthy hair!!

I've been going to Hair Is She for years and I can't speak more highly about the salon, my stylist Portia, and my overall satisfaction with her services. The quality of the service is outstanding - I have yet to find a place or stylist who tops it. My hair is healthy AND looks great. Another thing that I love is how my time is valued. Lengthy waits are never a problem. I'm usually in and out in an hour. Do I need to say more?
Check her out - you'll be glad you did.

Every time I leave Hair Is She, I get compliments on my hair and questions about how I maintain my natural curls! Between my appointments and Hair Is She newsletter I am able to share what I learn. This keeps my hair looking great!

I am always very pleased when I leave Hair Is She salon. I am very impressed with the way she makes everyone's hair in my family look and feel fabulous. We all have different lengths, textures and needs, but regardless of what our issues may be, she handles them.

My hair has been chemical-free since June 2000 and have been “Happily Nappy” ever since. Despite my love for my natural, I sometimes desired a temporary change where I could wear my hair in a “straightened” style – all the while leaving my natural texture unaltered. I went to a couple of hair “stylists” and got some very disappointing results – hair that was “straightened”, but look dry, dull, and lifeless. I had all but given up on the notion until a good friend of mine recommended Portia’s services. I decided to take the plunge once again and see what she was about. At the time, I was also transitioning my daughter’s hair away from Creamy Crack (I know….what in the WORLD was I thinking putting that stuff in her hair in the FIRST place). The resulting look and feel of both our hair (mine fully natural, my daughter’s “transitioning” and in-between) was PHENOMENAL. My hair type typically has a difficult time not sucking up all of the moisture in the air and “reverting”. After Portia’s skilled hands, my hair was having NONE of that. I had even gone through two “misty” days without a hitch. On the 10th day after my “silk-out”, my hair still looked so jazzy, I snapped a photo of it and texted it to family and friends. Unfortunately, I generally don’t worry much about umbrellas since I just let my natural hair do what it does. This umbrella-neglect is the ONLY reason my style didn’t last more than 10 days - right after I snapped my picture, I got caught in a full-fledged rainstorm heading home. The health and thickness of my daughter’s transitioning hair shined through after Portia did her magic. After our first, post-Portia at-home “wash-n-twist”, my daughter’s hair was more manageable with less tangles and discomfort. My hair (thankfully) coiled right back up into its normal watch spring-sized pattern allowing me to return to my every day wash-n-twist routine – only this time with added shine, better twist memory, and WAY more movement (woohoo!). As an added benefit, the knowledge that Portia imparted to me during our visit on how to care for both my daughter’s and my hair helped me to not only explore more techniques for natural styles at home, but also helped me to fully transition my daughter’s hair to its current, healthy, 100% natural state. Fellow BeautySeeker, know this: if you are transitioning from relaxer, Portia’s techniques and training can help you become more comfortable with the natural state of your burgeoning crown of glory; if you are already a full-fledged 100% “natural” girl who feels uncomfortable with the idea of straightening your locks, Portia will remind you of the shear versatility your hair affords and help you divine your inner Hair Diva – without the weave, without the relaxer, and without disturbing your natural coils. Two snaps and a twirl, Portia!

Hair is She is the best! If you are transitioning to natural Portia will give you great tips with making sure your hair is healthy. When I went to Portia the service was fast and I loved my hair. She's affordable and gets you in and out!

I began going to Hair Is She salon after my mom had continuously praised Portia for her hardwork, exceptional customer service, and knowledge of natural hair. I love going to the salon and my entire experience is always wonderful. I would recommend this salon and Portia to anybody.

This salon is the greatest! Since I've been getting my hair styled there, I have gotten so many compliments and my hair looks so healthy! I also get compliments on my fire red hair color, awesome. Thanks Portia!

Portia is the best! She make you feel like a star. You leave with your full of bounce and shine. She is friendly and efficient. There is hardly any other place you can go to get this great service and be in and out in an hour. If you are looking for someone to give you great hair care, in a fast and friendly manner, Hair Is She is the place.

Portia has raised the bar for the hair salon experience. Her skill set, knowledge and dedication are an unparalleled trifecta.
Here are just a few reasons why Portia is super special:
1. She only takes ONE hour for typical appts
2. She can cut AND color short hair too
3. She does not need to bog your hair down with product to straighren and control it
4. She gives you a customized boutique experience each time
5. You can really switch back and forth between curly natural and straight natural because her process does not ruin your natural curl pattern
I am extremely busy and travel often. Portia never fails to tweak my hair for the business, social or civic obligation I am attending.

Portia has been styling and caring for my hair since 2003. She never overbooks her clients so your hair appointment time is yours. That is one of the reasons I keep coming back in addition to the great hair care she gives. I have not been able to find any stylist that can straighten my natural hair without causing heat damage or putting gunky hair spray to hold the curls. I currently live in Los Angeles and literally fly back to Atlanta to get my hair styled. It is soft, bouncy, and beautiful every time I leave Hair is She Salon. Thanks Portia!!! You Rock!

Always 100% satisfied when we leave Hair Is She! I've been taking my girls to Portia the past two years and love her. Unfortunately we live in Charleston SC but anytime we are in the area we see Portia!! It is well worth the travel :)

My daughter introduced me to Portia, I am so grateful. I get tons of compliments every where I go. I love how my hair shines and flows after every visit.
06/08/2013
Hair-Is-She is great because Portia will take fantastic care of your natural hair. She will make your hair shiny, smooth, and soft without any chemicals. This is the place to go to achieve beautiful hair that is really all yours.

I've been going to Portia for the past.....6 years. That includes me going out of town for years...and flying back JUST to get my hair done. I've always been natural/straightened my hair..and let's just say my hair texture is 'different'...so I'm oh so fortunate to have someone able to achieve the bouncy/straight/soft hair that I've always wanted. I would recommend Portia to anyone looking to go natural or is currently seeking a specialist to achieve healthy hair.
06/08/2013
I have been going to Portia for a year now and my hair has never been healthier. She takes the time to show you how to maintain your great hair in between salon visits. I don't know where my hair would be if she was not there to guide me through my transition.
