About

The collective operates from the historic Sentry Building off N Ivanhoe St., near the St. Johns Bridge. A newly formed nonprofit, the T house, helps pay for gender-affirming beauty and wellness services for people facing financial hardship.

Hair services cover cutting, color, blowouts, styling and updos. Haircuts range from undercuts and kids' cuts to fades, long transformation cuts and dry curly cuts, and new clients who want a curly cut book a free curly consultation first, by text or call. Color ranges from toner and all-over color to partial and full highlights, balayage, foilayage, ombre, vivid and rainbow shades, and timed color blocks. New or dramatic color is preceded by a free 15-minute virtual consultation that is booked separately from color appointments.

For hair loss, the team fits and shapes wigs and hairpieces, installs K-tip extensions and helps clients source wigs and hairpieces. Red light scalp therapy and topical solutions for hair growth are also offered, and a hair thinning consultation is free. The business offers referrals to queer, trans, kink, poly and body-positive therapists, as well as referrals for surgery letters.

Electrolysis is priced by session length, from 15 minutes to one hour, and begins with a free consultation. Facials include an essential facial, a refining facial with an enzyme mask and dermaplaning. Waxing covers the face, brows, underarms, bikini, arms, back, chest, abdomen and legs. Massage includes Swedish, myofascial, neuromuscular and craniosacral techniques, plus scar tissue release, at $80 for 60 minutes or $120 for 90 minutes.

Bridal services include bridal makeup, consults, run-throughs, day-of updos and a full-day package. Private hair and makeup lessons, individual or group, and image consulting, including a closet assessment at the client's home, round out the offer. Gift cards are sold for $50, $75, $100 or $200, or a custom amount, and gift card sales are final. Packages and memberships are listed on the booking page. Appointments are made through Glossgenius, and Buy Now, Pay Later is available in person for bookings from $50 to $4,000, subject to approval. Hours are Sunday and Monday 10am to 8pm, Tuesday 10am to 7pm, Wednesday and Friday 9am to 8pm, Thursday 10am to 8pm, and Saturday 9am to 6pm.

The business describes itself as an inclusive collective that serves the trans community and their friends, families and allies, and says everyone deserves to feel beautiful inside and out.

Set in the historic Sentry Building in north Portland.
