It took me a while to find a decent hair stylist in Olympia but fortunately for me I came upon this wonderful establishment! Love the folks who work here love their politics Love knowing that I can go someplace and feel safe and get a decent haircut. Unfortunately they have not bought any of the Google advertising packages so now mysteriously after almost 30 years of business Google doesn't even list them when you do a search, no pay no play for Google. This is a great business it's really sad what Google has done to them. read more

Unfortunately, I received what is "the worst haircut of my life" from Sara. I went to her with the goal of growing out a bob with hair tapered and framed around the face. The first haircut was great! She did exactly what I wanted. Three months later I went back for a trim. What I got was the front half my head of hair made into a long bang, and the back of my hair left long. I went back to see if she could fix it, but it just made it worse. I've had a mullet now for a few months. The only way I can wear my hair is with a clip to hold the bang back so the whole thing isn't laying 2/3 of the way down on my face. It's so bad that it's funny (most of the time). Thank God hair grows. read more

Sara Johnson is a wonderful stylist & even better human my daughter first had her hair done by her and I loved it so much that I went to Sara. When my daughter died and I couldn't even function, she washed my hair for me when I couldn't. She's the only person I want to go to for my hair. read more

I had the pleasure of having my hair done by Sara Johnson during a visit to Washington last summer. She gave me a long shag cut with the funnest bangs I've ever had, and then we bleached and applied the most vibrant blue all over. The cut and color have long since faded, but the confidence that I felt after Sara did my hair has lasted to this day. I highly recommend Sara Johnson as your next stylist. read more

Sara Johnson has been doing my hair and my daughter's hair for years. She is an outstanding colorist with a beautiful sense of style. She is so good that we followed her as she grew as a stylist and moved to more exclusive salons. read more

I recently went to Sara for a cut & full copper highlights and it was such a fun experience! We've only had 1 or 2 appointments together, but it's the most relaxed I've had in a hair stylist setting before! It's hard to not feel judged or shy in a normal hair salon, but the entire vibe at Jamie Lee's is so welcoming and inclusive! I love seeing hair stylists that have the same styles themselves as I do, it's very relaxing and my hair has been serving since. I'm definitely going back many more times. read more

Horrible experience with Kylie! when I pay $260 each appointment for hair color I certainly don't expect failure to achieve the desired color after achieving the 1st appointment and still be charged, to make matters worse Kylie melted off a good volume of my hair by over processing it, failing to say anything to me. I could go on about the whole story but there's no point. I gave Kylie multiple chances to make things right, instead she flipped everything on me, while Kylie took no responsibility what so ever. I was pleasant every time I saw her patiently hoping she'd be able to correct the color, while drying my hair she stopped and walked out of the salon, leaving someone else to finish drying my hair. She didn't say a word to me, just walked out! Later I text her saying I was disapointed that she walked out, her reply to me was she knew I was going to blow up on her, she felt it professional if her to walk away. I never gave any indication of being upset with her to justify that action. She further claimed I was being a bully????? How I have no idea, she texted a few other things that were childish followed by texting I'm a miserable old women and what the F was I going to do about it!! Completely unacceptable, unprofessional & irresponsible behavior! I have filed a complaint with the board of cosmetology as well as the BBB. read more

Sara Johnson is absolutely AMAZING!!! can't say enough positive things about her. She is professional and a lot of fun to talk to while she's doing your hair. I would highly recommend Sara to anyone. She's funny, sweet, knowledgable and really knows her stuff. read more

I decided to give this place a try... finally. I must have walked by 100 times. I desperately needed something done with my hair. I walked in after a complete box-color fail and asked for a miracle. I got it. I called to see if a short notice appointment was available and completely lucked out getting Kylie. She absolutely did magic. It was completely 100% worth every penny. Admittedly I was nervous. This place looks cool and quirky, and I'm really not sure I was cool or edgy enough. Kylie is young and rad. I have so much fear about a new salon, and eeeek a new stylist. But I have been feeling like a change for the new year, and needed help. BAMMO!! I got it. It was fun to hear all the cool things people were doing with their hair...and many other things going on. I could not be happier. I feel like I finally have the haircut I have wanted for ages, and my color is stunningly beautiful. I definitely will be back and recommend this place. Everyone who left there was happy, smiling, and gorgeous...including me. read more

Kylie did an amazing job helping me get ready to gray. I've been dying my hair box black for 25 years. She did a bleach out and tone. Now I'm ready to go gray gracefully. She managed to give me a great look and keep my hair healthy. Talented colorist read more

Jamie Lee is great! Super nice and my haircuts are fantastic. Jamie listens to what I need (shower and go with no fuss and a haircut that lasts at least 4 months) and then she delivers. Love this shop! read more

JJ is a follicle god! I needed a short do for the summer, my hair has challenges and have had some super bad cuts recently. Not this one, flawless, perfectly blended and sexy. Bonus points, JJ cracked me up repeatedly and is a gem! So glad I found you, see you in a month or so, thanks! read more

This place is absolutely awesome and so is Eric! I had been going to Eric for several years and he always did an amazing job on my hair. He knows what he is doing and listens to what you want, I mean really listens. I have never left his chair feeling iffy, so-so, or meh about my hair. Every time I have left I feel fabulous. He is an engaging person to talk to. He is honest about your hair and will help select a good color and style. He knows what he is talking about. So fast forward, I had a baby and with the huge daycare costs my discretionary spending went out the window so I started trying to save money by going to Hairmasters and the like. After my hair was turned orange ( asked for blonde highlights) I should have had the sense to just save some money and go back to Eric. BUT NO, I had to try to have someone less experience fix it. What happened? My hair turned up being black and white striped, with grey ends. Kid ya not. Think Cruella Deville meets a zebra meets sewer water. I called Eric and begged him to take me back and forgive me for cheating on him. He was nicer than ever and squeezed me in the NEXT day. THe whole process of fixing my hair took 3 1/2 hours but he did an amazing job and charged me his normal rate. I have learned the hard way - you get what you pay for and with hair - you need to make the choice to just save some money or go longer periods of time to get your done rather than scrimping in this area. My sister, sister in law, and mom all go to Eric and have for years. We love him. I am back for good. read more

I had Drobbi today and she was really wonderful. She did just what I wanted and was helpful and friendly. The people getting color were looking gorgeous. This place is not pretentious in any way. The price is very reasonable. read more

Best salon ever, incredible stylists, Amazing atmosphere and I always leave feeling confident and pampered. Dravį is one of the most kind and caring stylists I've ever met and Kylie is awesome too! I highly recommend trying out Jamie lee and company read more

We love @Crystal Howard at Jamie Lee. She always gives us amazing color and cuts. A very hip, eclectic vibe, always great music, and they will get you a water, coffee, tea or even a glass of wine. Queer tested and approved! read more

had an appointment with sarah yesterday but she did not show up. ended up leaving and going somewhere else after waiting for awhile.

Jason is my stylist, and I adore him! He's so kind, and after a few visits, has perfected my queer, curly haircut! He's worth booking with! read more

Jamie Lee & Company - My queer cut - Hair Salons Near Me - Olympia, Washington

I have thick wavy graying hair full of cowlicks. Not always easy to work with. Tracy gave me a fantastic short asymmetrical cut that compliments my waves. I have had good cuts from others there too over the years. It's a fun atmosphere and moderately priced; that's why I keep returning. read more

This place is badass! Missa is a true craftswoman with an ability to understand exactly what you want complete with a scalp massage, a fade, a fat adorable cat and a colorful personality! This two story shop is lined with local art, pink walls and the famous mojaked poodle poster. Great product line, great service, great hair. I'm sold and will definitely be back here for my regular touch ups which they will remind me of via text message 24 hours before. Gotta love it! Not everyone can do a mojhawk but Missa did it with her eyes closed read more

See all

Absolutely love love this eccentric beauty place. My stylist was amazing, we talked dreads and other randomness as she shaped my almost mullet into a cute elevated bob. Definitely worth the trip from Puyallup. read more

I'm not one of those people who gets their haircut regularly and had their stylist's number programmed into their phone. But. I've been to see Jason here a few times and i think he's pretty awesome. The vibe inside is so cool! You would never guess from the front but it's giant inside. The back hair washing room is peaceful and there is plenty of good conversation to eavesdrop on on the front. I always feel well attended to and Jason really takes his time getting to know what your hair "needs" are. They finish off your haircut with a Moroccan oil treatment and you'll spend the rest of the day marvelling about how shiny and soft your hair is. I've gotten tons of compliments on how cute and healthy my hair looks so I'll definately be going to Jason for awhile! read more

I called this place last minute trying to get an appointment for the same day on a Saturday, they were booked up and put me on a call list in case someone cancels which no one did. Around 4pm Jamie called me and said she was supposed to be off at 5 but if I wanted to come in she would do a cut/ dye for me. I'm so happy I went in! My hair looks and feels amazing and Jamie did a wonderful job! The ambiance of this salon is just wonderful and the location is great. I will definitely be going here again. read more

I randomly found this place while exploring Olympia. I'm so glad I did. The place is cute and quirky. Such a darling space to be in. I booked a massage with Brookelle. I have been sore and stiff from traveling. I definitely left more comfortable! She is so kind and professional. A perfect massage. read more

Missa fixed my hair after I screwed it up with henna and indigo. She's brilliant. Also, this place has cats. Why wouldn't you go here?

Went to Jamie Lee and Co. for the first time today. It's a fun upbeat place with funky bright colored decor. Kylie cut my hair and while it is a simple bob its now slightly wedged at the bottom and cut out underneath making it light and easy to dry and it's super even. Kiley took lots of time to get it right. It is one of the best cuts I have had in a very long time. The price was reasonable too. Very happy with this salon - I highly recommend! read more

Jamie herself has fix my hair! They stand by their work! If you don't like it they will fix it :) she was very sweet and understanding about it and about what I wanted for my hair color I'm very happy with the fixed color read more

Jason made me feel super dapper and well taken care of. I have a poor excuse for a beard but needed a trim and wanted to keep my top length while still looking cleaned up. He listened to me while also providing a skilled and thoughtful touch. He used scissors on my sideburns and undercut, I never felt like he was rushing through the cut. He made conversation that wasn't forced. The cut was a bit more than i usually pay , but I don't think it was too much for the time and care he took. I'd rather spend it on a great haircut than blow 20 bucks at Great Clips and pray the entire time they don't buzz my head. I liked feeling like he was putting care into making me look good and he cared my look, even styling it for me. I will be going back. read more

I got an awesome haircut here by Becca, or Becky, I can't remember. I went in with a vague description on purpose, because I wanted a change, though I wasn't sure what, and knew a professional could tell me. I ended up with a super cute, long-layered medium cut, with pretty face framing layers in the front. I was hesitant, because I have had the best cuts and also the worst with my difficult hair, but I couldn't be happier! The vibe of the place was great, very comfortable and unique, with lots of interesting things to look at while getting my cut. A potential con: However, if you have a bad cat allergy this may not be go, as mentioned in other reviews. Some various pros: Friendly staff, funky environment, cats, knowledgable stylists, cheap - like mentioned in a previos review, under $40 for a bangin 'do. Will return! -R. read more

I've lived in Olympia all of my life and have seen this quirky little salon a million times while in downtown so I was excited to try them but I'm really disappointed with the whole experience. I had Jamie as my stylist. I've been growing my hair out from a pixie and needed my length trimmed and evened out. From the time I arrived it was awkward. She didn't say on the phone what the procedure was for Covid so I was confused when I arrived. She isn't very approachable and didn't ask me hardly any questions about me or my hair. I work in the hair industry but she wouldn't know that cause she didn't seem too interested in getting to know me. But I kept trying to ask her questions to keep the conversation going, it was like pulling teeth. She didn't tell me about any products she used in my hair, or much about the lines they carry. When I was styling my hair at home I noticed that one side was longer then the other and my bangs were uneven and chunky. I fixed the cut myself. She said she has been doing hair for 35 years and it seems she has gotten careless. read more

My husband's hair is REALLY hard to cut.. like decades-since-he's-had-a-good-cut hard to cut. The day before our wedding the scruffiness was too much to bear, so we got him in with Sarah at the last minute. From our perspective it was a big gamble, but the payoff was immense! Sarah gave him a great cut along with styling advice and honestly, he will never go anywhere else as long as we live in Olympia. It's such a relief to know we have a place to go where he will be in good hands. read more

I come to Jamie Lee to see Amber T. She has been doing my hair for years and couldn't imagine anyone else doing it. This place is eclectic and highly recommend. read more

Happen to date one of the hairstylist at the salon. Everyone at the salon does great work and good energy. I have never felt so relaxed in a salon before! read more

Jamie Lee & Company - Hair Salons Near Me - Olympia, Washington

Yet again working with Somer at Jamie Lee & Company was a great experience w/great results! This time we did lots of bright hair color again and a new side shave too. Hair dye colors this time was Orchid, true blue, and pink (which you can see more from a side or back view). Somer is always supportive of my hair ideas I come in with, which is great as I'm getting a little more adventurous each time. You can see all my old reviews of Somer and old color & cut photos below. As usual it's a 3 step process, bleach, color, cut. Somer is careful to only bleach the part that wasn't bleached before so my hair doesn't get too damaged, and also advise me of the long term impact of each color. For example blues fade to blue and it is hard to put any other color over the blue so we stuck w/blue in the front again which works out great. Pink fades to a lighter pink which would impact what color you put over it next time but that's fine since I'll put purple or more pink over it next time. I was basically a color newbie before Somer and she has taught me all I need to know about it. I get the ombre style which has various lengths of my natural brown up top so it still looks good as it grows out & fades. I still really value her mellow calm and positive demeanor since it's a 4 hour experience to get all of it done. If you're a mellow kind person who wants a partner in crime to help let out your visually expressive side, Somer's your stylist! read more

Jamie Lee & Company - My latest hair cut & color w/ side shave I got from stylist Somer Sprague at Jamie Lee & Company. It's a 3 step- bleach, color, cut. love! - Hair Salons Near Me - Olympia, Washington

this place is rad! Very funky and Somer took great care of me. Glad to have found this place. Will definitely be back again!

The only place I trust with my hair. I go here for my cuts and color. Crystal is my stylist & she is phenomenal. For the longest time I cut and dyed my own hair due to so many bad experiences at various salons - it is reassuring to know I don't have to look any further. read more

My hair's been growing out for about 20-ish years and the last time it was trimmed was about 10 years ago. Having shot right past boredom and straight into ennui with my long hair, I searched out salons on Yelp and found Jamie Lee & Company. The shop itself is funky and fits in perfectly with the downtown core. The people (and shop cats! Thanks Otto--you are a handsome cat.) are welcoming. Sarah took a long look at my hair, asked my likes and dislikes and gave me a great, no, really GREAT haircut. She also braided up my hair so it could be donated to Locks of Love and she deserves extra hugs for that suggestion. Sarah took her time with the cut, checking and double-checking to make things perfect. And then she checked it all again after it had dried. I left looking a little like Amelia Earhart in a good way and even my "I really like long hair" husband loves the way it looks. I was so pleasantly surprised with the shop--Sarah's area was decorated with a ton of images including 1940s pin-up--very cool. Best of all, the shop didn't smell like a toxic waste dump--you know, the smells of perms and dyes and...and... It smelled nice. Maybe they have a terrific ventilation system or maybe it's the Moroccan Oil products, I don't know, but I didn't leave feeling like my lungs had been fumigated. Look, I'm not a "girly" girl (or woman, for that matter) and my appearance is not a huge deal to me, but I'll happily go back both to keep the look she gave me and to experience JL&Co. again. read more

Do you absolutely love your hair? Like *really really* love it? Because I do. Missa made me the bleach blonde pixie I always knew I was inside. And every time I sit in her chair, we laugh and laugh. She does incredible work and is a kind and wonderful person. If you're looking for a change from a place with skilled stylists and is down to earth, please come here. You won't regret it! read more

I took my 12year old here today. He has recently come out as trans and has had long hair forever. This was a big day. We waited until the last day of school because he and I were both worried about the drastic change during the school year, and the possibility of getting a bad haircut. We came in with only a couple pics he liked, but it wasn't exactly what he wanted, and a hair clip to show the stylist how he had been clipping up his hair at home. Tracy was AMAZING! She did such a wonderful job! My son was so comfortable, really seemed to have a good time during the cut, and there was an awesome kitty, Otto! It was amazing to watch Tracy take his long, straight hair and turn it into exactly the short style he was wanting with so little guidance to go on! I feel like Tracy has a really great way of tapping into what people want and what will work for them! She is an artist for sure! When the haircut was over my baby was so so very happy! He is still literally beaming, hours later. I have not seen him this happy for a while. He looks adorable! This was a huge decision for him to make and a really big day. Tracy made it effortless and perfect! Thank you so much, Tracy! I hope you know how much this means to us! We will be back soon for a trim, I'm sure :) read more

I have lived many places, and paid many people a lot of money in desperation to try and make my hair be both manageable and stylish. Repeatedly, they would miss the mark, as they would try to make my hair something it is not and can not be (at least without my hiring a styling team a la the hunger games and spending 2 hours on it every morning). That's until I went to Jaime Lee and Tracy worked her magic. There is a difference between someone who is skilled and proficient at their profession and a true artist. Artists have vision. Artists understand and adapt to the medium they are working with. Tracey can work with your hair, understand it, and bring out its potential. Now that's an artist, and that's what I have been looking for all these years. I came for the cats, and I stayed because Tracy is the best stylist I've ever had. read more
