The Best 15 Hair Salons in Olympia, Thurston

Kelsey Kai I have seen Christie for YEARS! She is the best! She has so many amazing artists at the shop. The space is beautiful and I always leave feeling incredible.

Emily Olson Brenna is the BEST! I have had horrible experiences with stylists in the past, and Brenna is very knowledgeable and so fun to be around. She and I discussed my hair type and what would be best for my hair moving forward. From cut to color and even product recommendations. My whole friend group goes to Brenna. 100/10!

Angela Saber I adore this place. Christie and Brenna are so nice and talented. Brenna worked 7 hours on my hair to correct the mess Gene Juarez made on my hair. After my appointment with Brenna, I look like a new person and have gained so much more confidence because my hair is the bomb!!! I will never want to go to another salon again. My loyalty is with them. Brenna and Christie are well educated on hair and how to treat it. They also know a lot about hair products. Thank you for transforming me to how I have always wanted my hair to look.

Katie Morris Christie, the owner of Urban Parlor in Olympia, is an absolute gem! Not only does she possess incredible lash artistry skills, but her studio is a chic oasis. The ambiance is inviting, and Christies warm and humorous personality adds an extra layer of comfort. My lashes turned out beautifully, and the overall experience was delightful. Highly recommend Urban Parlor – a true five-star haven!

Anna Sayre I have been a client of Althea for years. She does excellent work on fine, straight hair! I just love her new salon space - chic, peaceful and just blocks away from the hectic downtown area.

Buddy Stevens Althea is very professional and friendly! She has been cutting my hair for 5+ years and does a great job!

Kim Boon Althea understands how to cut my curly hair and I always leave very happy with my hair style. I also appreciate that we start each appointment with Althea asking how my hair cut held up. I recommend Althea’s Hair Design.

Morgan Belt I had an amazing haircut experience at Honey Hair Salon! My stylist, Emily, was incredibly talented and listened attentively to my requests. The salon had a relaxing and inviting atmosphere, and the service was professional and efficient. Im thrilled with my new haircut and will definitely be returning.

Alexandria I’ve been going to Emily for about a year now, and I can confidently say she’s the best stylist I’ve ever had! Every time I leave her chair, I’m thrilled with how my hair looks. Emily has an amazing eye for what will suit me best, and her guidance has always led to incredible results. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also creates such a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Our conversations are always fun and engaging, which makes the entire experience even better. The extensions Emily did for me have been a game-changer—they’re easily the best thing I’ve ever done for my hair. On top of that, she’s so attentive to making sure my hair stays healthy and looks its absolute best. I can’t recommend her enough!

Jennifer Bagley Emily does amazing work. She always does a fantastic job with my extensions and my highlights.

Lola Edwards Emily is so kind and does such an amazing job at doing hair! She knows what she is doing! Always has me looking the best and refreshed. Definitely worth booking an appointment:))

Frankie Galvin I had a great experience and an even better haircut today! David was open, friendly, and an excellent communicator: he really made sure we were on the same page about what I was looking for and asked helpful, clarifying questions, which I appreciated as someone who has trouble explaining what I want in a haircut. I highly recommend booking your next haircut with David!

Beatrice Timken David is the best! nobody else gets to touch my hair at this point.

Klayton Lisonbee David always gives the best haircuts. He listens to what you want and has great suggestions if you don’t know what you want. I highly recommend David.

Aaron Eubanks Renee is the best. Has been cutting my hair for a couple of years now. Nails it every time. Nurturing caring, and experienced. Highly recommended.

Nicole Kinney Ive gotten my hair cut here by Juniper Yantis for years and years! I believe each stylist has their own business and Im sure theyre all great but I of course think Juniper is the best!

Judy Seljestad Judy Snyder is my stylist at Ahead of Design, and has been for 30+ years. I highly recommend Judy. The shop is in a great location, clean and well maintained with ample parking. All the stylists are very friendly.

Daina Shea Love my Heather. Great salon. All the stylists are so friendly and wear a smile.

Madison Schupbach Juniper is so absolutely amazing, I for awhile won’t stop gushing about how good of a job she did. Exactly what I wanted to an absolute T and she’s so sweet!

Michelle Bryant I have been going to Brittany for a while and followed her when she moved to Jaymes Paige without hesitation. I have thick hair, and sometimes it can be a challenge. I love that Brittany took time to get to know me (and my hair). I feel comfortable asking her questions or for her opinion, and its a joy just chatting with her. Oh, and definitely ask her about hair products. The space is beautiful and clean and plenty of parking around the building. I cant recommend Brittany enough if youre looking for someone talented, thoughtful, and a generally damn good human.

Desiree Cavey Kearia was wonderful! She was fun to chat with while she worked, she listened to my requests and transformed my dull and boring hair into exactly what I had hoped for. I am so happy and impressed with her skill with hair color. ❤️

Emily Salmon I recently got my hair cut by Sara, and it was by far one of the best experiences. My hair was in pretty bad shape, and she worked wonders. Not to mention, I had the pleasure of meeting the other owners of the salon who were just as welcoming. I was laughing the entire time because of these ladies. One last thing, Sara supports many of her loved ones/local art which I think is pretty rad. I highly recommend stopping in to shop for the cute items and book an appointment with Sara for your hair! Affordable, welcoming and a good sense of humor.

Randi Jones Been seeing Sara for years and she is amazing! I have curly hair and she knows just how to cut it to make my curls pop, does awesome job on my vivid colors, and also does a great fade for kids and fiance! Highly recommend!

Flower F Susan cut my hair exactly how I wanted it! She took the time to explain why she was doing what she was doing and her expertise showed. I have long, thick, curly hair and she knew just what to do. Big plus- the shampoo chair was very comfy. I feel a lot better about my look after seeing Susan here.

T Judd Fawne is amazing. She was recommended to me. I asked her some questions about managing my hair and ended learning so much while she effortlessly gave me a fantastic haircut. She is an expert in her field and so easy to talk with. I don’t usually enjoy getting haircuts but this I did- I think she created another long term client. Go see her, you will be so glad you did.

Brittiany My experience was Amazing, Fawne truly knows her stuff. My hair hasnt felt this healthy in years and it looks so good!!! I have spent so much money over the years searching for this result. Thank you

Larry Kronquist Cuts my hair perfectly every time, and is professional AND friendly. Yeah, Im a guy, but she does a fantastic job for ladies, as well!

Jay Lee Itll cost, but if the ends justify the means you will not regret it.

Mykenzee Gleizes I have nothing to but positive things to say about my experience with Devon! Over the past 4 years, I have followed her from place to place receiving the best services. I began my hair journey by making the big chop and cutting off 12+ inches, to maintaining a short, cute bob, to finally coloring my hair for the first time. I’ve trusted Devon with all of my different hair journeys. She is super easy to talk to and she makes me feel so welcomed and heard. The atmosphere of the new salon is so wonderful. The salon is so cute and I love all the natural lighting and how open things are. I will be returning to Devon for as long as she is doing hair!

Thuy Nguyen I cannot recommend Devon enough! She worked absolute magic on my hair, and trust me, it’s no easy task with how long it is. Her attention to detail, patience, and expertise made the entire process so enjoyable. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows how to handle long hair with care and precision, Devon is the one to see.

Debbie Lillie I have been going to Devon for several years and always appreciate the great job she does with my hair. I always leave feeling refreshed and excited! Devon has worked so hard to get into her new space and and she never fails to continually up her game. This new space is so open and feels so good when you walk into the door. It feels like home. I am continually impressed at how she can make any space uniquely hers. Devon is amazing at her craft and I appreciate her beyond words!!

Laney Mortimeyer The space is welcoming from the moment you step in the door. Comfortable seating with cute decor and snacks while you’re waiting. Once you step into the work space, all of the natural light makes it feel very open with plenty of room between stations. Devon and her team are professional, easy to talk to, and make you feel beautiful with ease. They are creative and think outside the box no matter what service you’re requesting. They work with customers of all ages and all walks of life. Everything from a simple cut to people with medical conditions wanting just feel a little more normal in their appearance. Devon stays up to date with all the new technology out there and has taught at different conventions. If you’re looking for a new and creative look or you are someone with a medical condition wanting to feel normal again, you definitely need to see Devon!

Emma-Kate Schaake Devon is truly the best of the best and such an artist. She’s patient and listens well so I know I can always trust her to bring my vision to life (usually better than I imagined!) She is an expert of her craft and she understands both the chemistry and philosophy of great hair care and style. Case in point, blonde is hard on hair but every time I get my highlights, my hair actually feels better because of her process. Devon does everything she can to make sure her clients leave feeling like their most confident, beautiful selves. The new salon space reflects her vision as an artist in her attention to detail for a wonderful client experience. It’s stylish, clean, bright, and comfortable. Devon is warm, welcoming, and so much fun to chat with; I always look forward to relaxing, laughing, and treating myself. I couldn’t recommend Devon, her team, and her salon more highly.

Freddy Ortega Son is great go get a haircut. At DK salon. Hes been cutting my hair for more than 10 years

Blayke Nix Very unique and happy place. The owners of my salon suite are so kind and to the point. The providers in here are all phenomenal. Many services provided here!

Lili Osborne Most excellent service. Calming atmosphere and professional expertice!

Maria Thomas Wonderful experience getting a haircut from Anna. She listened to what I wanted, but also knew right away what would work with my hair type. She made suggestions on how to care for my hair and the best part is that after the haircut I barely need to style or do anything. She cut it so it just dries perfectly on its own. I am super happy and really really recommend her.

Elizabeth Perrin My friend wanted her hair cut by her favorite stylist and it happened. They had a very nice visit and her hair was very cute when they were finished.

Ambyr Goff Olivia is absolutely amazing! I have never had a better experience in the past almost decade that I’ve been getting my hair done professionally. She was incredibly gentle and patient with my super fine, easily-tangled hair, and she was kind enough to give me some pointers on how to manage it better in my own daily routine. She did such a wonderful job and the color turned out better than I ever could’ve imagined. I’ve gotten multiple compliments already because of the fantastic work she did. Olivia instantly makes you feel like you’ve been friends for years even when you’re meeting for the first time. Her studio is also gorgeous and very comfy. Words cannot adequately convey how much I enjoyed my appointment with her. I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Olivia for any coloring or other hair services!

Makenzie Wright Olivia shares so much pride and devotion in her work. She tries all products herself, to ensure only the best for her clients. She is always learning to broaden her wisdom, she truly takes the time to really know what she is doing! She is the only one I trust coloring my hair, she is the absolute BEST. I have been seeing her for close to seven years now and I always leave her salon SATISFIED! She perfected my blonde taste over the years, but has also switched it up at my request. I share my thoughts and she perfects them. I highly recommend Olivia at OH Hair Designs.

staci jorgenson Moe has been my hair stylist since 2013. She is truly the best and really cares about her clients and listens to what they need. She is amazing at coloring especially when it comes to being blonde. Ive always gotten a full head of highlights and a cut with styling. Im always truly amazed by her work and how she brings my hair back to life! She also has other services that are wonderful too. Its very easy to schedule an appointment and pick the services you need done. Moe will always take care of your hair needs because shes truly passionate with her craft. If I could give her infinite stars instead of 5 Id do it in a heartbeat! I definitely highly recommend Moe to be your stylist!

PNW Girl Have been going to Moe for years and she does a fantastic job. She highlights my hair blonde and the color is beautiful every time. She is so good with color and my hair looks natural as it grows out.I always feel so much better and am happy with my hair after an appointment with Moe.

Karlie Fairchild I’ve been going to Moe for years, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! She is an absolute master at creating the perfect lived-in blonde look, every time I leave her chair, I’m amazed by how natural and flattering my hair looks. Not only does she consistently deliver amazing results, but she also makes every appointment a pleasure with her friendly, warm personality. Moe truly listens to what I want and always knows exactly how to make it work for my hair. I’m so grateful to have found someone as talented and personable as her!

Chelsie McGrath I cant recommend Moe enough she is so experienced and kind! She took the time to listen to me about what I wanted for my hair and it looked amazing after. She also gave me hair care tips to use going forward. I love that her space is a private studio, it made me feel so welcomed.

Robin Moe is a consummate professional. Not only is she a highly skilled hair stylist; she has many other talents and abilities that have nothing to do with hair. Moe is intelligent, witty, kind, creative, confident and a great communicator. She has been cutting my hair for several years and does a fantastic job with a textured, softened cut thats stylish and easy to care for. Highly recommend!

Crystal McLaren I do not live in Olympia, so about two months ago, I had extensions installed by someone (NOT Bri) in my hometown. They were not good quality and by the time move-up time came around, they were a mess. I desperately started calling places in the nearest "big city" and I found Bri (insert angel halo emoji here). Bri got me in on very short notice. She got my extensions out and we discussed what kind of cut I could do for my damaged hair. She ended up giving me the shortest hair Ive had in 30 years (collar bone length at my request) and it is so cute! I absolutely love it! She is wonderful to work with and very knowledgeable about various extensions and just everything! Definitely my go-to girl now! Also... Her pricing is reasonable, up front, and she doesnt nickel and dime you to death.

saura evans Bri was Amazing! I went from brunette to a blonde balayage with a long layered haircut and curtain bangs. Found my new hair lady! - she was fun to talk with and very personable

lisa poma I couldn’t be happier with the incredible service I received from Bri. The salon is cute and welcoming. Her consultation is thorough and you can tell she not only listens, but will gently guide you to get the best results. I’m 50 years old - color my hair monthly and have 2 bundles of 22” extensions installed. I can honestly say my hair hasn’t been healthier. No breakage and I’m experiencing new growth. All due to her guidance on product and care. If I could give her more stars I would!

Danielle Vest Bri did an amazing job. She really wanted to clarify exactly what I wanted, and as she created her masterpiece in my hair, she made sure that it was comfortable for me as well! The workspace is beautiful, very inviting and she even got me Something to sip on. I highly recommend working with her, not just because she does really good hair, but also because of her professionalism and the great environment of the workspace.

Rachel Kara is sooo skilled with color. A true artist. Blonde, brunette she kills it. Whatever I want she gets me there but also helped me be realistic! Best installer of bead hand tied extensions in Olympia. You will leave happy!!!

Jena Kara is absolutely incredible! Kara has been doing my hair for over 10 years now and every time I see her I feel so beautiful and confident! She is the best blonde specialist there is. If you want beautiful, blonde and healthy hair you must go see her!!

Pacific Logging & Processing Kara was great! I have had bad luck with other stylist understanding the blonde I wanted to achieve. All of her recommendations were spot on and she was truly pleasant to chat with. Don’t sleep on this hidden gem if you’re in need of a blonde specialist!
