Presley Poe
Owner | Stylist | International Educator
Presley celebrates all hair types, including straight, wavy, and curly textures. They are well versed in short, medium, and long styles including barbering.
PSA- Due to inflation I will NOT be raising the prices of my haircuts in 2025. Please read below.
Presley Poe is a stylist of 24 years who celebrates all bodies, all people, all hair.
She sees the beauty in all hair types and seeks to empower you through accessing your natural beauty- no matter if your hair is straight, wavy, or curly.
Along with her work behind the chair, Presley is also a BTC One-Shot winner, co-creator of Presley Poe & Friends, BaByliss Pro Elite Artistic Team member, Cosmoprof Affiliate and host of Color The World, and creator of Interactive Hair Cutting.
Presley is the owner of Gold Studio Experience, an all-inclusive space in Portland, Oregon dedicated to uplifting culture & community through the magic and love of hair.
“The salon space, experience, and expertise of Presley is nothing short of stunning. My 13 year old daughter has never been happier with her curly hair. Presley was so patient and kind—walking her through the steps for home care, breaking everything into simple steps (which were surprisingly less complicated than I thought it would it be!) and building her confidence. I've never seen my daughter so excited, smiling ear to ear, and in love with her new look. We can't wait to go back and feel so grateful that Presley is in Portland. If you're in the area, what are you waiting for?! The expertise, patience, and attention to what her client's hair wants to do and celebrating it, makes Presley a true gem. We're so grateful!”
The Presley Poe Experience
An empowering experience that leaves you feeling heard, seen, valued, and educated, sending you home with the ability to do less and get more.
Presley celebrates all hair types, including straight, wavy, and curly textures. They are well versed in short, medium, and long styles including barbering.
When you arrive at Gold Studio for your appointment with Presley Poe, your luxury service will include:
The Consultation
Presley will guide you through an organic conversation where you’ll feed heard, seen & valued. This is the foundation of your visit, where we design a plan so that the brunt of the work is done in the salon, allowing you to do less and have better results at home.
Elevated Shampoo Experience
Enjoy our luxury shampoo lounge (you’re going to love the built-in lower back support) while your hair is detoxified, hydrated, and your scalp is renewed. These essential steps will be customized to your hair & scalp needs and may include:
Curl Steam Bath: a demi-permanent moisturizing treatment specifically designed for curly textures to penetrate deep into the hair shaft and last so much longer than a traditional topical treatment.
Invigorating Scalp Treatment: A gentle and effective process that removes plaque, encourages healthy hair growth, and removes product build up to reveal shiny, healthy curls.
Style & Finishing
Whether you leave the salon with beautifully shaped and styled curls or a smooth blowout, you’ll also be empowered with the knowledge and understanding to replicate the styling process at home. Presley will hold your hand every step of the way, explaining exactly what she is doing and why.
Home Care Breakdown
Being educated on how to care for and style your hair at home is only half of what you need to have success, which is why Presley will also send you home with the appropriate products for your needs. At Gold Studio we offer an array of results focused luxury products for all hair types and textures.
We kindly ask that no photos be taken of our retail products, as our exclusive lines are only available to be purchased within Gold Studio.

How to Arrive
Straight/Wavy Textures:Relax this week on shampooing at home, and let Presley take care of you within the salon. It’s important that we don’t dehydrate the hair by over shampooing, so for the health and wellness of your hair and scalp please do not wash your hair within a day of your visit.
Curly Textures:Please come in with your hair down and styled as you would usually wear it. Next day hair is fine too!
Things to avoid: coming in with your hair straightened, tied up or pulled back with bobby pins or any sort of clip.
