About

Pulse Salon, also styled Pulse Salon & Day Spa, is at 1023 SW Yamhill in Portland and covers hair, skin care, makeup, waxing, massage, bridal design and foot treatments under one roof. The salon states that Elle Magazine rated it among the Top 100 Salons in the Nation. It is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with Wednesdays by appointment only, and booking is by phone at 503-274-4272.

For hair, the salon treats the one-on-one consultation as the most important step, where ideas and expectations are talked through before any cutting or color begins. Clients are shown how to recreate their look at home, with the techniques, products and application explained during the visit. The salon states its hair services are performed by experienced, well-trained professionals.

The spa side uses cold-processed skin care made with wildcrafted, organic and natural ingredients. The salon says no harsh chemicals go into its spa products and that no animal testing is done on its ingredients or products. Facials include a customized Pulse Select, an aromatherapy facial, a multi-step Detox Deluxe and a Glow facial built on vitamins, peptides and hyaluronic acid. Massage runs from half an hour to an hour and a half, with hot stone and prenatal sessions also available, and foot facials and a leg and foot treatment are offered too.

Bridal work is a large part of the menu. Bridal hair and makeup can be done in the salon or on location, with one or two stylists depending on the size of the party, and bridal design can be customized. Travel fees may apply for on-location work, and extra fees may apply outside the greater Portland area. A bridal hair trial is required before the wedding date, wedding parties should book well ahead because they need special planning, and parties of four or more receive complimentary champagne mimosas.

Clients leave able to recreate their look at home, with each product and technique explained during the service.
