Hi curlfriends! We are blessed to be busy and currently unable to make appointments for new guests within 60 days. If you'd like to get in on our wait list to be notified of any openings within 60 days please fill out the New Client Form.

Your texture is unique and you deserve a cut that is customized to your particular curls and face shape. At Gilded Fox we know how to take care of your curls, from wavy to coily, and teach you to do the same at home giving you defined frizz free curls with an incredible shape. We cut curls dry, in their natural state, using our expertise and intuition to navigate leading curly cutting techniques to find the exact right blend for your specific hair type. Essentially we believe in shaping curls like a bonsai tree, sculpting each head of curls specifically to the wearer.

Arrive Ready:

To prep for your curly cut or color service please come in wearing first or second day curls with minimal product, down, dry, detangled, and naturally curly with no pins, clips, or rubber bands so your stylist can see your true natural curl pattern. Expect to spend about 2-3 hours at the salon on your first visit for a curly cut, up to double that if you’re getting color. It’s a time commitment your curls will thank you for!

Portland’s premiere Japanese Nail Care & Art Studio

Fumi has been working in nail care & art since 2002, training in both Japan and Australia, before moving to Portland in 2011. She began her own studio, Color Treats, in 2014, as Portland's only licensed Japanese nail artist trained in Japan. As well as creative, unique nail art, Fumi specializes in Japanese soak-off gel, for healthier and longer-lasting nails compared to polishes that peel and acrylics that damage nails. She excels at nail care and treatment, and spends much more time and effort on nail care before starting with artwork. Her services aren't rushed at all, and her clients can tell the difference. You can see Fumi's services and book your appointment at ColorTreats.com/schedule or text 503-974-NAIL (503-974-6245) Fumi is usually booked a couple weeks in advance, so please plan ahead!
