Frequently Asked Questions — Portland
How far in advance should I book in Portland?
Regional locations like Portland are booked into scheduled routes — we recommend booking 3–4 weeks ahead to secure your spot on the next Portland run.
Can the local barber and hair salon book together?
Yes — coordinating with neighbouring businesses on the same day makes the most of the visit and is encouraged.
Do I need to be open during the visit?
You need to be present (or have a trusted staff member) to hand over scissors and receive them back. The visit itself is brief — typically 15 minutes per pair.
