The 10 Best Waxing Salons in Portland (2026)
This list ranks Portland’s top waxing and hair‑removal salons using Google review data and a Bayesian score that weights average rating by number of reviews; it was updated for 2026. We prioritized places with the strongest combination of near‑perfect ratings and substantial review counts so small but well‑reviewed shops and busier studios can be compared fairly. Portland’s beauty scene includes a mix of neighborhood boutiques and specialty hair‑removal services, so this roundup aims to point readers toward consistently rated options across the city rather than endorse a single approach.
This ranking is computed from Google reviews (our method). Listings marked Partner are paid advertising spots: they sit alongside the ranking without changing its order.

Frequently asked questions
How should I choose a waxing salon in Portland?
Look for consistent high ratings and a solid number of recent reviews to gauge reliability, and check that the salon’s listed services match what you need (waxing, sugaring, male services, etc.). Also consider location, scheduling options, and whether reviewers mention cleanliness and professional conduct.
What should I check before booking an appointment?
Confirm the exact service you want, any pre‑appointment instructions, and the studio’s cancellation policy. It’s also wise to verify licensing and hygiene practices if that information is available in reviews or on the salon’s website.
How much does waxing typically cost in Portland?
Prices vary by service type, the area of the body, and salon, so expect a range rather than a single figure; specialty techniques or large salons can cost more. Check each salon’s menu or call to get an estimate for the specific service you need.
