Hair Salons in South Portland Gardens

Designed entirely with kids in mind, Trimmings welcomes shaggy mop-tops into a sky-blue space bedecked with plush toys, colorful hair accessories, and products made especially for them. Kids can jump into the driver's seat of their own yellow taxi or red fire engine and let their imaginations run wild, barely noticing as one of the shop's kid-friendly stylists trims their bangs or carefully braids pigtails to perfection. Understanding that kids can be apprehensive during haircuts, the team takes a gentle approach as they shampoo tiny tresses and brush out tangles, all without disturbing the infinite supply of quarters hidden behind each child's ear. They also offer private, parties—built around themes such as pretty princess, enchanted fairy, rock-star diva, or aloha luau—that teach kids that the salon can be fun, pampering them with hairstyling and mini-manicures so that they can enjoy music and dancing in style.

The owner of Urban Edge Hair Studio, Linda, draws on more than 14 years of experience to revamp hairstyles and soup up nails. Inside her salon garnished with floral wall motifs and hanging vines, she and her all-female team dole out coloring services, eyelash extensions, and organic spray tans. To oust stress, Theresa, a holistic licensed massage therapist, delivers Swedish, trigger-point, and sports massages in a private treatment room.
