on Citysearch May 17, 2009As I was walking back to my car after a pedicure and microcurrent facial at Head Games, I was thinking that the world would be a much better place if everyone went in for a little more pampering. I had such a happy feeling... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 06, 2009I must admit I was little skeptical in regard to the facelift without surgery, but the Beautiful Image micro current facial is for real. Vanessa is so wonderful, sweet and attentive. She makes sure I am comfortable... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 16, 2009I had a great experience and got a great haircut. After having long hair for a few years, it was time to go short, and I gave Alanna free rein to do what she would with my hair. I was a little nervous because with my super... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 16, 2008Headgames is the best place in Portland for anything beauty related! Maureen is my stylist and knows exactly how to cut curly hair. She convinced me to go shorter and it turned out so well! It now has tons of bounce and... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 03, 2008I agree with the person who commented before me. I didn't have a good experience at Head Games. I felt the staff was a definitely a little snobby and the music was so loud there was no way I could relax. I probably won't go... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 13, 2008I walked in the door stressed to the max (my ex-stylist flaked on my appointment the day before) and I had a class reunion to go to that evening. Jessica (a relatively new stylist at Head Games) was great on the phone, and... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 18, 2008My 20 and 30 something daughters recommended Maureen at Headgames, but I felt I was too old for someone young and cool. Maureen was terrific! She put me at ease, gave me good suggestions and did a great job on my hair. I... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 21, 2008The common theme of all these reviews seems to be about the amazing things that Maureen can do with curly hair, and mine was not an exception. At the risk of sounding repetitive I have to say that Mau is an extremely... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 31, 2008I had my hair done this afternoon by Maureen, and I had to write a review to share what a positive experience I had. First of all, I am bi-racial, so I have very curly, unruly hair that many salons here in Maine are not... (more)
