I received the best haircut ever by Justin at Justin Hunter Salon. I have very long, thick, curly hair that was desperately in need of an update. He literally transformed my hair by adding seamless layers and so much volume. It is so effortless to style and I absolutely love it. Justin is amazing! I can’t wait to return next week with my daughter who has even longer, thicker and curlier hair than I do.
My Fiancé and I were popping in and visiting Portland for a night and I was lucky enough to snag an appointment with DJ Hickey! She’s spectacular. Not only did she listen to what my goal was, but also explained the process, how to achieve that goal and EDUCATED me. I went in with hair color that I’d recently gotten and was unhappy with and she completely transformed it. She made me feel comfortable and we had great conversation. I’lll definitely consider driving 5.5 hrs from MA for another appointment.
Im new to Portland. Searching for a new barber, I tried Ethan Hunter, because they had the best reviews. Was not disappointed. Justin gives an excellent cut. He is attentive, affable, courteous, and professional. Highly recommended.
To say that my experience at Ethan Hunter was amazing would be an understatement. My stylist Justin was fantastic and so unbelievably knowledgeable! It shows in his work and words that not only is he very experienced but cares as well. I walked into the salon nervous and unsure. But he very patiently walked me through my ideas and his ideas and helped me settle on a haircut that I love. Im young but Ive never been happy with a haircut I received until walking into Ethan Hunter. I will forever recommend this place to anyone. If youre unsure of whether or not to give your business to them, I assure you- you should. Thank you so much for showing me my hair is something to be boasting about!
I had THE best haircut from Justin! I really appreciated how well he listened to what I wanted, and he also offered some great advice (without it, I would have cut my hair WAY too short). I will definitely be returning for another haircut in the future!
Had a great hair cut with Justin, my hair is thick, short and not easy for many to cut. Justin is very skilled and has much experience with cutting and styling. The salon is cute, friendly and very professional, I highly recommend coming here.
One year ago I left NYC and sadly my beloved hairstylist. Three bad pandemic haircuts later I moved to Maine and gratefully discovered Jessica at Ethan Hunter Salon. I was desperate for a flattering cut and anxious about trying another salon. Jessica listened as I recounted my hair history, explaining what hair style I wanted, and what didnt work for me. She then proceeded to give me the exact cut I had described! She absolutely delivered! I finally feel happy with my head of hair again.The salon is welcoming, clean, and Covid careful. I highly recommend Ethan Hunter Salon. I plan on being a repeat customer. Thank you Jessica!
The best haircut Ive ever had, a very relaxed atmosphere, and fantastic conversation. Cant wait to go again!
SHORT STORY: I had the best haircut of my life by Justin. If you have a chance to get your haircut by him, take it. You will not be disappointed. LONG STORY: When I walked into the salon for the first time, what a warm and welcoming space it was. I couldnt help but notice the beautiful chair I sat in for the cut and I commented on it. Justin told me that the previous owner of what had been a mens barbershop was throwing it out. It was original to the space, probably from the 1920s. Justin immediately saw the beauty others overlooked. He had the handles re-porcelained, top quality leather put on the seat cushions and transformed what was once trash into treasure. He brings the same care and attention to his customers hair. I entered the salon with a hairstyle I had for many years and left feeling transformed. Justin took the time to have a real conversation with me about my hair. He talked about the texture and asked me questions that no stylist had asked me before. I literally got a compliment from a stranger on the street within minutes of leaving the salon. If you want to rediscover the beauty of your hair, book an appointment with Justin.
Fair price for mens haircut, with excellent, friendly service. They take covid seriously and made a new client feel very comfortable.
Great haircut. Came from NYC and decided to try out this spot. Knew exactly what to do with my hair, super friendly and gave some tips on my hair. Definitely recommend.
I was so impressed by the quality at Ethan Hunter today. Justin was talented, knowledgeable, professional and has a great sense of humor which made the session enjoyable from beginning to end! I highly recommend making the stop in to experience it for yourself
I have very thick, long, curly hair and have never returned home from a haircut perfectly pleased. HOWEVER, after my first visit at Ethan Hunter Salon, Jessica worked her magic on my hair and now, over a week later, after testing out various hairstyles (curly, blown out, etc) I am blown away at her talent! The cut she gave me looks fabulous any way I style it or even with air-drying and Ive never been able to say that before. She also took the time to educate me about my hair-- the types of haircut styles I should stay away from with my hair type and the types of cuts that would be flattering. Then she proceeded to give me the most flattering haircut, EXACTLY manifesting what I had described! She also then gave me ideas for various professional hairstyles I could try since Ive long struggled to do my hair in a way that made my wild mane look put together enough for professional settings. Im so grateful to have found Jessica and this salon and will be returning with requests for the same exact cut!
My first visit to this salon was in November 2020 - im very satisfied, it’s the best haircut I’ve ever gotten, which i found incredibly impressive as Justin seamlessly transitioned from barbering a man to cutting my long hair which I am pretty protective of. Justin and Jess work as a highly talented, professional, and engaging team. I went in sharing I hoped to keep the length on my hair while giving it some dimension and movement - they nailed it. They were conservative in trimming, and I walked out of there with exactly what I hoped for!
Highly recommend, I went in with an idea of what I wanted and what I got was SOOOO much better! Thank you DJ for an amazing job!
I (male) religiously get my hair cut by Justin at Ethan Hunter, his scissor cut is by far the best ive ever had... hes a true expert and its quick and perfect every time. People ask me ALL THE TIME where i get it cut. It also grows out so well i feel like i could skip the next cut every time! Justin is a great guy and i always enjoy spending the time with him. Bonus: Ethan Hunter is a husband and wife shop with a beautiful and warm atmosphere, i always enjoy seeing Justins wife Jessica there and sometimes if im lucky some furry little friends are there too! Its a great experience here every time, i couldnt recommend it more
Courteous, on time, clean and Covid-compliant. Aveda salon with high standards. Justin, the hair stylist did an excellent job. Finally found a salon in Portland worth going back to after numerous bad haircuts. wish I had found Ethan Hunter Salon sooner!
Thanks for another great haircut at Ethan Hunter Salon. Justin and Jessica are consummate professionals who excel at what they do. The salon is in the heart of the Old Port and has hardwood floors, exposed brick walls and great artwork. It also has a friendly, relaxed and cool vibe. I know people from around the country who make it a point to stop at Ethan Hunter Salon for a haircut whenever they are back in Portland. Ethan Hunter Salon is the best salon in the Old Port and it’s the best salon in Portland. Thank you Jessica and Justin!
I strongly recommend Jessica at Ethan Hunter Salon. After another salon left me with an unflattering cut, I read the great reviews for Ethan Hunter Salon and called for appointment. Jessica heard my distress and although booked solid for the next few weeks, offered other options or she would try to fit me in as soon as possible. I decided to wait for an opening with her/salon and am so glad I did. She heard what I wanted for color which was perfect. Then she found a way to style my hair to improve the shape...and now 2 months in, my hair style is the best its been in years. The salon is small but homey, the atmosphere casual. Prices are fair and posted; everything is discussed up front. Mostly, Jessica is a very talented stylist....it is such a pleasure to work with such a talented professional. Thank you Jessica!
I could not recommend this salon more highly. Ive just moved to Maine and they absolutely made a new southern girl in town feel so welcome. My hair is thick but fine, and most stylists arent comfortable cutting all the layers I prefer. I LOVE my new cut! What a fabulous job! Plus, I even got the treat of a much needed scalp and neck massage. A lovely experience and I feel like a million bucks for the new year! Thank you so very much!
Great haircut from Justin. Highly recommended.
This was my first time into Ethan Hunter, but it felt like I was walking into a friend’s home. Its tucked away unassumingly on Fore St (really easy access if you park down on Commercial St) and it’s just so cozy inside! I was offered a coffee right as I stepped in. Jessica took the time to understand my hair (and scalp!) before jumping in. The cut is fantastic, and my hair feels so healthy and soft. Can’t recommend this spot enough!
By far, the best haircut I’ve ever had. I have thick hair that no one has been able to master for 48 years. I’m still amazed that he was able to instinctively know exactly how my hair wanted to be handled and gave me the hairstyle I’ve always wanted! Instead of wetting it down, he dry cut it so he could tell which way the hair wanted to flip naturally. Now that’s respecting the damn curls! Wow! This is his calling. He has mastered this profession. This was the fourth salon I’ve tried since moving here over a year ago. I found my hair heaven!
Thank you Justin for making me love my hair again. For years my hair is cut too short, even when I beg them not to. In the past other salons have made me look like a sad version of Shirley Temple, or my layers are cut in a way were it looks like I just have chucks of different hair lengths. Long story short, I always leave with my hair pulled up, and I’m crying.NOT HERE!!!! After being greeted by two sweet pups, Justin looked at my crazy lion mane and got excited to cut my hair. I immediately became relaxed. The atmosphere captured a relaxed, upscale, version of downtown Portland.My hair now frames my face so perfectly that it would make Jennifer Aniston jealous. I left with my hair down, and I am feeling beautiful. Even after all the hair he cut, my length was still there. I did not leave without booking my next appointment.Note: Certain hair products they will take back, if you are not pleased with them. Second, you have a week to get touch-ups on your haircut. HOW AWESOME IS THAT!
Best hair cut I’ve ever had. I have long very thick hair that’s half kinky curl and half straight. I’ve always had to wear it up. Since Justin’s been cutting my hair I wear it down all the time. It’s half the weight without the use of thinning shears. He does a dry cut so he can see how it falls! No more blunt edges or shelves, it blends perfectly. He’s a genius!
The only salon Ill let cut my hair. Couldnt ask for better haircut or customer service. Very personable. Takes the time to understand your hair and what you would like. Would definitely recommend to anybody looking for a haircut regardless of hair type or gender.
I have thick hair that grows fast and I could never seem to get consecutive great haircuts. I’d go back to the same place and get a different person, or the same person wouldn’t remember how to give me the same great haircut again.A year ago Justin made time for me during a busy day as a walk in and gave me the best haircut I’ve ever had. I loved the way it grew out and after a month I was back at Ethan Hunter for my appointment with Justin. He remembered me, gave me the same great haircut, and we picked up right where we left off like old friends.
I recently moved to the Portland area from California and was concerned about finding a hair salon and stylist that would be comparable to my CA salon. A friend referred me to Jessica at Ethan Hunter Salon and I’m so glad she did. Jessica did a fantastic job with my color and cut and her positive energy is delightful. I am so happy I now have a great hair stylist here in Portland! Thanks Jessica!
Not only does my hair look incredible (thank you Jessica), my entire experience at the salon was one I’ll never forget. Jessica and Ethan know how to make a client feel like you’ve know them forever. Great conversation with both of them and lots of cuddles from their dog, Gus, while getting my hair done. Would highly recommend to anyone who lives in Portland or is visiting and wants their hair to look fabulous. Thank you!!
This was my first visit to the salon, on the recommendation of my daughter. What a great color and cut I got from Justin. I felt like a new woman! The salon is lovely, and Jessica and Justin could not be nicer or more professional. I booked my next appointment before leaving and am already looking forward to it.
I recently relocated to Maine from Massachusetts and needed to locate a great stylist and colorist near my new home. Im grateful I found the EH Salon and Jamie, in particular. Her approach and presentation were such that I let her use her artistic skill to determine an appropriate color and cut to complement my style etc. Im very happy with the results and already booked my next appointment. The salon is stylish yet simple with no fluff to focus on whats important; the clients. Added bonus today was a visit by the salon owners very sweet dogs. The owners, Jessica and Justin, are both stylists and made a point of introducing themselves and thanking me for my business. The experience was quite refreshing and relaxing.
It has been such a LONG time since Ive been happy with a hair cut. Im talking decades. Ive been to every high end salon in the area and tried my luck at out of the way salons. Ive had my hair cut in NYC, Boston, and locally. This is one of the best hair cuts Ive ever received. Im not sure how to capture how much Justin knows about hair. How many times have you had a hair cut where a stylist gives you something in the family of meta styles that is trending but it just doesnt suit you? Rest assured that you will not receive THAT hair cut. You live with your hair every day. Now you can actually like it.
Jamie is absolutely amazing! Ive been to the salon twice, and I can definitely say that Ive found my go to stylist! I have naturally dark hair and Jamie is the only person I trust to add color to it! My first time at the salon, I was very nervous about adding color. However, Jamie was super professional and reassured me that it would be done properly. She made me feel super comfortable and I trust her. The end results are always fabulous, and I always leave the salon feeling my best! Im obsessed with my hair! If you are at all nervous about adding color to your hair, I definitely recommend checking Jamie out. Like I said, shes the only one I trust with my hair!
If youre looking for the best color and the best cut, go to Justin. Hes brilliant at both. And very nice!
I went to Ethan Hunter today to see Jamie. The atmosphere of the salon is chic, but also rustic. Everyone was friendly and polite, but Jamie was funny, charismatic, and most importantly, creative! She knew exactly what would look good on me and she delivered! My hair feels healthy, it looks beautiful and I couldnt my have asked for a better cut and color! The entire experience was a pleasure and I will definitely be going back!
Kate is AMAZING!!!!!! This is not just a haircut. I felt like I was at spa. She gave me a wonderful high and tight. Not only the great cut, but a shampoo and scalp massage. When I got back to the chair I even got a shoulder massage. So easy to talk to and she customizes your every need and want. Thanks Kate do much. Look forward to my next magical experience!!!!!
A fabulous experience every time. Jamie is unbelievably talented and accommodating. The owners are lovely and know everyone by name. Sleek decor and wonderful products. Love it here!
I’ve been getting my haircut from Justin for about 20 years every other week! When I walk into the salon, I am greeted, and offered a beverage. Great staff!!Great atmosphere!I am very Particular about my hair, and Justin hands down meets my standards EVERY single time!! He also gives the best fade I have ever had. I will continue to be a customer at Ethan Hunter Salon, as long as there is hair on my head!
Justin gave me one of the best haircuts Ive ever had. I took a chance getting my hair chopped with a stylist Ive never been to. I am so glad I did. Justin knows hair and can read his clients needs. Highly recommend.
Justin at Ethan Hunter has been expertly cutting my hair for many years now because he is the best, most professional hairstylist in the region. While happy to make a suggestion, Justin always carefully listens, then provides exactly the cut and style requested to make you look your best. Justin provides excellent conversation when needed, and is always great to visit. The rest of the stylists at the Salon are professional, courteous, and always willing to help out when called upon. There are many options in the area, but none are as well priced and friendly for the high level of quality provided.
I have always had a hard time finding someone who knows how to listen and do what I ask as well as do what they know will look good. Jamie at Ethan hunter salon is AMAZING!! I would let her do whatever she believes would look good because she is just THAT GOOD!!! She is hilarious and makes you feel comfortable. Words cant explain how great of a job she did on my hair, she will forever be my hair dresser and she should be yours too!
Katelyn at Ethan Hunter is the absolute best! I’ve been going there for a couple of years now and couldn’t have anything better to say. Katelyn is talented, personable, and takes pride in her work. I would recommend Katelyn and Ethan Hunter to anyone looking for the best experience in Portland!
Ive been going to Kate Cates at Ethan Hunter for a couple years now and cant recommend her highly enough. She always knows what I want, even if Im sometimes not entirely sure. Shes also one of the most personable and friendly people youll meet. If youre in need of a great barber / stylist, look no further!
Ethan Hunter is great. I went to lots of other place and was never happy. After my first visit with Justin never been anywhere else. He does a great job at a reasonable price.
After visiting the salon, I can see why it just won “best salon In Portland.” The second I walked in the owner Justin said hello and shook my hand (first time ever in a salon). Justin did an awesome job on my hair. It was clear he has extensive training and was even able to explain aspects of how he cut my hair that would make it easier to style. I would highly recommend the Ethan Hunter Salon, ask for Justin, he will take phenomenal care of you!
I’ve tired multiple barbers in the area and Justin is by far the best. Every hair cut is exactly what I’m looking for and he’s always great company. Would recommend to anyone!
I have been going to see Justin at Ethan Hunter for a few years now and wouldnt think of going anywhere else. More than just a perfect haircut -- he is a funny guy and a great conversationalist. The staff is always welcoming and the atmosphere is always friendly. In the few times Ive needed to be squeezed in for a last minute cut, Justin was able to get me in. Ive always thought the price was fair and well worth the service. Ill be coming here until Justin retires!
TOP service! Justin is so kind, warm and professional. I tend to let my hair grow out quite a bit in between cuts and until coming here Ive never had a cut that would grow out so perfectly! Best salon/barber in town!
After moving from Portland to Westbrook I strayed from Ethan Hunter and Justin followed up with me personally (not once but twice) and asked for my business again. Justin knows how to maintain customer loyalty and deliver and exemplary experience. I find excellent value in the services he offers.
Im fairly new to Portland (2 years) and within the first month here I found Ethan Hunter salon and DJ. I havent allowed anyone else to touch my hair since. I was even gone for 3 months and just couldnt bring myself to allow someone else to do it so I waited until I got back to Portland. DJ is excellent with cuts and color and she makes the visit pleasant and relaxing. Shes a great listener and really makes you feel important. Justin and Jessica are always very welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend this salon.
Justin did my color and cut and I was blown away! It was exactly what I wanted. The salon is right downtown and easy to get to and they validate parking. Everyone there is so friendly. The experience was a 10/10. Im a 28 year old female and Ive been coloring my hair for a long time. Ive lived in cities like Denver, New York and Los Angeles where hair salons are top notch. Ethan Hunter Salon is the first salon Ive found in Portland that understands how to provide top notch quality and customer service.Best hair salon in Portland hands down.
Justin let me in for a last minute partial highlight as a first time customer and did probably the best job Ive had done. I have a lot of hair so its a bit of an arm work out but he did it flawlessly and we had fun chatting. The whole staff there was easy going and made it an enjoyable experience. Go to Justin for all hair needs you wont be disappointed!!
I have been a client of Justins for well over 10 years now. In a pinch I have had to visit alternate shops both in Portland and out of state. They dont measure up and quite simply...he is the best barber I have ever had. Pleasant, quick, excellent and easy. The salon is very relaxed....not the 50s striped pole and buzz cut and certainly not the stereotypical high end female focused salon. No cheese.....perfect.
Jamie is amazing! I knew her in art classes in high school where she showed raw talent, and so I wanted to support her new career when she hit the floor! Not only did she achieve exactly what I wanted, but what I wanted for years that no stylist could get right! I go to university in Canada, and she always does what she can to get me in so she can keep my hair at its best not only in looks but in health. She’s so quick to contact and such a fun time chatting! The salon has such a wonderful atmosphere and after just one visit I felt like part of the crew.
I am so happy I found you guys!! Jamie, Jessica, and Justin are some of the nicest most knowledgeable people. They truly care about the end result and making sure the client is comfortable and happy with the end result!I am so ecstatic that I found you guys and I love my new color corrected red hair! I may need to do that baylage Jamie recommends at the end of summer!!!
Just got probably the best haircut of my life from Justin at Ethan Hunter. He knew exactly what I needed, and was very quick/efficient. Besides the great haircut, Justin and the staff were friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable. Immediately booked my next haircut with them.
Jamie did a great job styling my hair. Was just in for a quick cut as an out of towner. I cant replicate how well she blew it out but it still looks great even at my hands :)60 for the cut. Cheaper then what Id pay back home but was a little higher then I expect but not unreasonable.
Everything about this place is wonderful. Great people, great work. Kate told me it was the most hair shes ever cut, and she made it look perfect. Im super happy!
Kate is great! She alwayw gives a 5-star cut and she does it really quickly. I didnt even know my hair could look the way she makes it look. Very personable and the most friendly person - I always look forward to my haircuts here!
Kate has been cutting my hair for about half a year now, and without question, she is by far the best stylist I have ever seen. Before her, I used to cringe about getting my hair cut, worried about how it would turn out. But now, I sit down, relax, and have complete confidence that Kate is going to do an amazing job. Ive never had a bad haircut from her. And not only does she do a top-notch job, but shes a lot of fun to talk to as well -- its an all-around great experience that I would highly recommend.
Went to Jamie for a mens cut and she did amazing! Definitely going back. Jamie usually specializes in hair coloring and is recently breaking into mens cuts. I was very impressed at her skill. I highly recommend!
Been there several times and Justin does a wonderful job. Great place to get a vintage style haircut although they are not limited to one specialty or style.Truly a great place to get your hair done, with a parking garage next door they actually validate the parking so its free! I recommend this place to everyone who is looking for a quality haircut!
I absolutely love this Salon, the location/atmosphere is wonderful and relaxed. The employees are very kind/helpful. If youre a guy and looking for an amazing barber, ask for Kate! Shes awesome, shes been cutting my hair for over 2 years now and I cant see myself switching until she retires!
I have been a customer at the Ethan Hunter Salon for nearly 6 months. I can easily, and wholeheartedly, say my experience has been truly exceptional! The customer service, attention to detail, and genuine compassion is truly unmatched. I firmly believe Miss Katelyn Warren (Kate Cates) has been a tremendous asset and gift to EH. I have followed Kate (whom I call Katie) for several years. Katie is, by far, the best stylist Ive had the pleasure of working with. She harbors a deep rooted passion for her work, and continually seeks new opportunities to develop her craft even further - a true professional. Katie has helped me redefine my look several times, each carried out in a careful and communicative fashion. Katie is fun, vivacious and mindful. I believe she brings another layer of fresh and creative energy to the phenomenal EH team. I have referred several friends/colleagues to Katie and will continue do so. Thank you for being YOU, Katie!
I went in to get layers and highlights. The color turned out really nice. Justin was my stylist and he made sure to get my layers looking the way I wanted. Everyone is really warm and friendly. Make sure to ask about parking. Dont pay for garage parking its expensive.
Fantastic spot to have your hair styled. Very friendly staff. Been coming here for years, youre the best Justin!!
I have been going to Kate at Ethan Hunter salon for over a year now and could not be happier. Kate (and the rest of the staff) have wonderful attitudes and do a phenomenal job cutting hair. I enjoy the ambiance and the pre-cut beverages are a nice touch. Looking forward to my next sit-down with Kate!
First of all, have your hair styled by Kate. I have been struggling to find a hairstyle that makes me genuinely happy for years. Not one that simply looks good and appropriate, but one that actually makes me excited about my hair. Several years and several salons later, Kate gave me exactly what I was looking for. Everyone on Ethan Hunters staff is kind and enjoyable to interact with, which makes visiting the salon even more enjoyable. They are also very fair with their pricing structure, giving you exactly what you need, without adding unnecessary extras that would needlessly raise the price tag. Kate is always accommodating with her schedule, but she is in high demand, so try to book in advance!
Justin gives the best mens haircut in town. Seriously. Best cut at a great rate with some of the best service in Portland. Ive lived in Portland for 12 years and looked high and low for decent, consistent barbers. Justin is as pro as they come.
Justin and Jessica never disappoint! Best haircuts of my life. Most of my haircuts in the past have been very disappointing when I go to style it myself. It never looked great. With Justin and Jessica, its always just like Ive been to the salon even weeks later. Dont hesitate to go to Ethan Hunter. They really are the best!
I went in for a long overdue haircut this afternoon with Kate. Let me just say she did an incredible job! I had an idea how I wanted my hair to look and she nailed it perfectly. Ive been coming here for several years now and couldnt imagine getting my haircut anywhere else. Thanks Kate, youll definitely be seeing me again.
I recently relocated to New Hampshire from New Jersey and needed to find a new stylist. I tried out a number of different ones in Portsmouth New Hampshire. I am quite particular about my haircuts and I could not find any locations to my liking. I travel often for work and I have been to salons in many different states. I came across Ethan Hunter in Portland Maine and have not went elsewhere to get my haircut since. Justin does a phenomenal job cutting hair and listens to the client. The salon is welcoming and Justin always has a coffee ready. I would highly recommend it to locals or those that pass through Portland.
Justin gives the best hair cuts in town. Ive been to almost all of the salons and barber shops in Portland, but I keep coming back to Justin. He keeps my beard tight and my hair looking fresh. I cant recommend Justin enough!
Had a great cut with Justin! Thanks so much! Definitely will be back in soon!
Ive been going to see Kate for years. She does an awesome job and its always an entertaining experience! Shes a lot of fun and I wouldnt imagine getting my hair cut by anyone else.
Great unisex salon. Very classy. Justin has been cutting my hair for years. Great haircuts and funny banter.
Kate has been cutting my hair for 4 years and shes so great that I followed her to Ethan Hunter Salon! The staff is incredibly friendly and it has a great atmosphere. If youre in the market for a new place to get your haircut, choose here!
THE BEST haircuts Ive ever had! My fiancé has his best cuts with Justin, as my son did for the years he lived in Portland, and Jessica is fabulous for me! We love going to the salon. We enjoy our conversations, the adorable doggies, and always come out looking our best. Highly recommended!
Best haircut I’ve ever had. For real. Go here.
Send all your friends to the best salon in town. The crew is great, and get to know and take sincere interest in their customers. The cuts quick and perfect every time.
Ive been going to Justin for haircuts for a couple of years now, and I wouldnt go anywhere else. Justin is friendly, efficient, and always does a great job. The location in the Old Port is perfect. Highly recommended.
Was in Portland for the day and needed a haircut for a wedding I was to be in the following Saturday. They service was quick, friendly, professional and they were very extra courteous by making time for a last minute walk-in. Most importantly though, I look F***ing Good. Highly recommend.
Regular at Ethan Hunter. Excellent place, the atmosphere, service, and cut look like you should be paying a lot more than you will!Kate does a great job with my pretty unruly hair, and is good with beards as well, which can be a hard thing to find. Appreciate her work!
Just got my second cut from DJ @ Ethan Hunter in Portland, Maine. The first cut from her was an extreme change from a previously long hairstyle of mine, and she executed the cut spectacularly using only a reference image I had brought with me. Maintaining the look should be no problem. Call ahead and book an appointment, its probably the highest quality mens hair salon in Portland, Maine. If you book DJ and after the cut she asks you if youre in a hurry, say no.
I’ve been a customer since 1999. Justin has been the same great guy since the first haircut. Highly recommend this Salon. Great cut, Great friend. I always look forward to it.
I’ve been going to Justin for nearly 20 years, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Justin provides a top-notch, professional men’s cut, courteous and reliable service, and great rates. Although a Vikings fan, Justin is Portland’s best!
I couldnt be happier with the haircuts (curly/thick) and highlights Ive gotten from Justin. Ive tried several other salons and no one is better!
I am new to Portland and made an appointment here based on their google reviews. I was not disappointed! I had a cut and color done by DJ. She was amazing and I LOVE how she did my hair. Scheduled my next appointment before I left. I would highly recommend this salon.
First time with Justin today. Love love love my new cut. Well worth the 4 hour drive!
Absolutely amazing! The staff is great and the experience is unbeatable. Ethan Hunter Salon has a comfortable atmosphere thats more than relaxing. Ask for Robin Littlefield! She took my dry and lifeless hair, and gave me a beautiful haircut. My hair is not only healthy now but cut in a manner that I can actually keep up with and maintain with my busy schedule! Will be going back again!
If youre looking for a new stylist in the Portland area, you have to see Katelyn at the Ethan Hunter Salon! Love this place. Relaxed atmosphere with personable and knowledgeable staff. Kate really takes care of you. Leave with the confidence of knowing you look great!
Jamie is great! Very pleased, hair cut came out awesome and very time efficient. Would recommend 10/10
Truly the nicest people Ive ever metI was looking for a place early in the morning and after being turned down by several other places they were my saving grace.I will only go to this place from here on outBest cut and best peoope
My job puts me front and center with the ultra wealthy, the college presidents and the politicians, and twice now I had clients discuss this place and reference it as the secret top spot for professional hair stylists. Its almost hidden. They remind me of a restaurant in Boston that doesnt have a sign. The manager of the restaurant (one of my clients) told me that said if you dont know my restaurant without a sign, you just probably arent meant for it. Ethan Hunter is not pretentious at all, but the professionals in the area seem to be willing to hunt them down because it is worth the effort. They are upstairs, and their sign is simple, but just look at the reviews they get here.
Ive been going to Ethan Hunter for two years now, and love it. Justin always does a great job, and provides suggestions on what to try if Im looking for something new. He also does a great job with a beard trim, which is only a slight add-on.
Katelyn has been cutting my hair for about 4 years now. Shes awesome! Great attention to detail!
Ive been looking for a hair salon for about 6 months with many failures. I have found my new salon. Justin did a great job! Definitely recommend.
Justin Hunter is the best hair-cutter in town. He is wildly over-qualified and a pleasure to experience. A 10-minute haircut from this guy is equivalent to a month at the spa. Do yourself a favor and stop in.
I’ve actually tried writing a review before, but it was not published. I’ve lived in several states, and gone to multiple barbers/salons/etc to find a good haircut. Justin cuts my hair better than anyone. I sent my wife in to get her hair cut by him as well... and she was actually (never happens) happy with it. Justin was very anxious to hear any critiques we had about our hair cuts, and was not satisfied until he met our expectations. No hesitation - give him a shot.
