I forgot to write a review earlier, but now that I'm ready for another haircut I am so excited to go back to Linda! She cut my curly hair PERFECTLY. It's such a good feeling knowing that I will not be disappointed after a cut ever again, I was never satisfied before and kept switching hairdressers until now. And she's a wonderful person!

I found Linda through her Yelp reviews, which I strongly encourage you to check out if you want a better idea of what to expect. Linda understands that your unmanageable, dry, and complicated locks are as unique as you are, and she won’t try to cut and paste a “hairstyle” onto your head. She is an artist turned hairdresser, and she will use that talent to custom cut your hair based on a number of factors that I cannot presume to understand now or ever. The bottom line is she's pretty much a magician/hair therapist, and you would be very hard-pressed to find a better haircut elsewhere.

I'd always imagined someone might be able to look at my hair and discern how best to cut it and finally, I found her! Linda is masterful with her assessment, vision, and ability to sculpt hair. She is sincerely welcoming and kind. Highest recommendation.Service: Haircut

Consider this two 5-star ratings - my wife and I are both dedicated customers of Linda. I get the elusive stylish-but-not-trendy-cut, a meticulous scissor cut that works with my face, age, and unruly hair rather than a typical 2-minute fade with clippers. As a bonus it grows out so well that I can go twice as long between cuts than I had been for the last 20 years or so. My wife gets a zero fuss wash it and go cut that looks beautiful on her and shows off the natural curls that other stylists had been cutting off. Her bonus is knowledgeable advice on proper coloring and keeping her hair fuller and more healthy, given without having a bunch of expensive products pushed on her. Linda is one of those old-school professionals that has you dreading the day she eventually retires - you really can't do better in Portland or beyond.

I am so glad I found Linda to cut my hair. Like others are saying in the comments here, she is truly an artist! My hair looked the best it's looked in a very long time and it's so easy to style. I was also struck by what a lovely and personable person she is! Thank you Linda!!

Linda is a master of her trade. Before getting my haircut with her a few days ago, I had pretty much accepted that my hair would just look bad forever. She gave me the best haircut I've ever had. I'm so grateful that I found her. Highly recommend.Services: Hairstyling

Linda is truly a hair sculptress. My hair can be frizzy and hard to manage. She gave me a cut that brings out the waves in my hair and beautifully frames my face. I no longer need clips and hairbands to manage my hair. It blows in the wind and still looks good. Linda has phenomenal attention for her artistry and is also a delight to connect with.

Simply the best haircut I've ever had. Linda really understands how a person's hair should be for the most flattering cut. She is not your usual stylist. She's more of a sculptress.

I thought I was going to to spend the rest of my life either tying my hair up or spending time styling it with heat tools to make it presentable. Linda changed all of that a few years ago with a fantastic cut which let me return to the wash and shake dry days of my youth. It is no exaggeration to say that she gave my hair back to me: my formerly dry and heat-damaged hair is now soft and healthy again. And if that were not enough, the second floor salon overlooking Congress Square Park and Linda's company are both a pleasure to experience. You may have to wait a little bit to get an appointment, but it is 100% worth it!

The absolute real deal. Exactly what I was hoping to find, someone with a vision and talent who could do something with my difficult hair. She's a complete Master Ninja Hair Goddess! You'll never be the same again, a better you from a hair cut!

I found this shop on Yelp when I first moved to Portland. I entered as a customer and left as family. Getting your hair cut at The Mane Attraction is an experience. Great cut, a fantastic stylist (Linda), and stimulating conversation.

Linda is an artist and I love the way she sculpts my hair! I will make an appointment with her any time I am in Maine!

Saying that Linda is great at what she does is kind of an understatement. I found Linda three years ago, and have never looked back. She gives me a great and consistent cut every time, of course. But Linda doesn't just give great results....she's the consummate professional who personally confirms every appointment ahead of time, is always flexible and accommodating and manages to make me look so good that my wife wishes she would dial it back a bit. Kidding. Linda's attitude is exceptional and so is her work.
